"They need more EDR functionalities.""They do not have all the features that I expect right now.""The implementation can be more user-friendly.""It does not have a user-friendly interface and it is difficult to use.""The solution's stability is an area that has room for improvement. It needs to provide constant stability to its users.""The price has room for improvement.""The clustering part of indexes can be more refined.""The cost needs to be re-examined. It's extremely expensive to run. It's also expensive to expand. That's the number one complaint all of my customers have when it comes to Splunk. It's way too expensive compared to other solutions."
