"The control is granular, so you can set policy profiles for different organizational profiles."
"Mobile access has helped us cater to more than 4000 users so that they can work from home."
"Being able to install a version of Check Point Security Management helps us avoid the expense of creating a server dedicated to that function, and we save on equipment and technical personnel in installing it, which in the end accelerates the administration and management of equipment to connect to it."
"Key features include the ability to include logs for everything that you do for admin. Also, it has web filtering built in and VPN."
"Splunk Cloud's most valuable features are log aggregations, dashboarding, business management, reporting, and business controls. Additionally, it has awesome indexing and the solution is always improving"

"The data management and instant search features are the most valuable ones for us, as they allow us to instantly retrieve information needed for reports and security compliance."
"I like the Cloud monitoring console feature."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Splunk helped reduce our mean time to resolve by around 60%."
"The solution is user friendly and has extensive uses."
"As compared to other tools, it is very easy. It is very easy to learn. It also integrates well."
"Installing a policy takes a very long time to complete."
"Check Point EDR has room for improvement, especially in the area of Data Loss Prevention where it currently lacks functionality."
"In future releases I'd like to see better integration with other applications and solutions. Also, the cost of the license is too high, it's too expensive."
"You need some technical expertise to use the solution. I don't think it's accessible to the typical end-user. You need to access the box and use some command lines or the web interface. It would be nice to have a user-friendly dashboard and comprehensive reporting."
"I would like for users to have more control over the platform in the next release. Right now, the system is very central and general requiring new rules to be created that better-suite our requirements."
"I would like it to be the administrator of equipment or Next Generation firewalls (which have to be managed on this platform) and to be able to manage other services (like Harmony) that also belong to Check Point."
"I would like this solution to be integrated directly into the Cluster XL equipment."
"There is room for improvement in reliability."
"The Splunk Cloud Platform dashboard could benefit from some improvements."
"The training models can only be accessed for 30 days, even if it is paid training."
"Customization could be simplified."
"Splunk should offer various options for real-time monitoring."
"The only thing that is missing from Splunk Cloud is the command-line interface."
"I have not come across anything that I would consider missing as such. If anything, sometimes we have dashboards that would not go into the dark mode. It is a minor issue, but it is the only thing that I wish was there. The dark mode would definitely help."
"In the case of knowledge objects, even a Splunk admin does not have access to delete them. If we want to remove a knowledge object, we need to contact Splunk support and raise a case. After that, they delete it. They should give us access to delete knowledge objects."
"They can offer more self-service capability to their customers. Currently, most of the things happen behind the Splunk Cloud Platform. As a customer, I do not have an opportunity to see my platform. If they can offer more self-service to see the health of my endpoints and stack, it would be appreciated."
