Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in IT Infrastructure Monitoring."Has really nice roll-up dashboards."
"Mobile application is the most valuable feature for us. We can monitor all the storages on our phones. It's really good."
"The tool for forecasting capacity is valuable."
"Fewer vulnerabilities have been observed in the four years we have used the solution."
"The best thing about this solution is that you can check for the infrastructure and system updates that you might need to be compliant with the Cloud."
"The most useful feature for me is the ability to create different kinds of alerts and set a different kind of denominator that will capture the real event. That is helpful for a power user like me."
"I have found the installation can be of medium difficulty to very complex depending on the use case."
"We solve issues that we previously could not since we now have the data."
"It's very flexible. If you look from the cloud implementation it is there. Reports are made quickly. Unlike other tools, it caters to all kinds of technical information on the front very easily. There's no need to put in any technical information. You can pull on the reports very easily, take action, and notify stakeholders."
"It gives me notifications of notable events."
"It is very simple to tweak or write a small piece of glue code to go ahead and create a new dashboard for a business unit to make near real-time decisions to focus more on other geographies when launching the product."
"Splunk is quite flexible for our customers. Splunk does not filter from a specific lock, you can define it later."
"The solution is the market leader."
"Doesn't do well in terms of integrating with technologies other than Dell."
"PowerScale is the only file system offered and that is limiting."
"The reporting capabilities of this solution could be improved."
"In terms of improvement, they should enhance the product range."
"Supporting legacy systems is an area that can be improved."
"Search head clustering is often temperamental in its current state and should be improved, replaced by something better, or be reverted to search head pooling."
"Configuring a few apps is complex, not straightforward."
"Splunk has a steeper learning curve, making it feel less user-friendly."
"The threat detection library needs to increase the frequency at which the playbooks are updated."
"Splunk can improve regex/asset analysis as we do not want to crawl until it is done."
"They can incorporate the SOAR solution within the actual product so that we do not require two different products, two different installations, and two different pricing methods. In regards to UBA, I am familiar with the UBA that existed two years ago. I am not updated about it today, but two years ago, UBA required such an amount of data that from a cost perspective, it was not worth it. When you compare it to what you get out of the box with Microsoft Sentinel without additional costs, there is no match."
"The historical data extraction needs improvement. I would like the capability of taking data and having it trend longer."
"Its pricing model and integration with third-party services can be improved. We had faced an issue with integration. The alerting feature is currently not available with Splunk, but it is definitely available with Datadog and PagerDuty. They should include this feature. A few dashboards in Splunk look quite old and are not that modern. They aren't bad, but improving these dashboards will definitely make Splunk more attractive and usable. I read in a few blog posts that there were a few security incidents related to Splunk agents. So, it can be made more secure."
