Find out what your peers are saying about Tableau, Qlik, Splunk and others in Data Visualization."Having a tool where you can find logs that were generated months ago, and being able to search over a long period of time, is great."
"The optimization and flexibility of visualization tools."
"The automatic update of the graphs from a dashboard is very convenient."
"The ability to rapidly diagnose problems in production and non-production, across hundreds of log files, is the most valuable feature."
"The product is good, it satisfies our customers."
"Splunk UBA is useful for fraud detection and for detection of APTs, advanced persistent threats."
"Splunk Enterprise Security's dashboards are a key asset."
"It has reduced the time to resolution, time to investigate, and time to troubleshoot for debugging issues."
"On the cloud, we are pushing through less than half a petabyte of data. So far, it has been fairly stable because it runs on all the underlying AWS infrastructures."
"Splunk's strongest suit is its user interface. We can integrate multiple solutions and adjust settings in the Splunk interface."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk is the log monitoring."
"Having a kind of wizard that would help you when you are typing your search would make it easier and quicker to refine your search, and ultimately find what you are looking for."
"This solution should allow the user to combine two indices into one graph."
"Security could be improved thereby avoiding the necessity of a third party plugin."
"Its interface could be improved."
"Its user interface for everything other than the charts can be improved. Some parts of it can be simplified a bit, such as when importing documents that have the network traffic. When you're going through the information about the network traffic, you have to have the expertise, but even if a program is supposed to be for IT support, it is good to make it user-friendly because it gets easier to train people. When something goes wrong, the more difficult a program is in terms of UI, the harder it is to fix the issue."
"Splunk could improve its default machine-learning models. Also, Splunk Enterprise's native threat intelligence isn't that good. I prefer a custom threat intelligence model."
"It would be nice if Splunk reduced the cost of training. Their training sessions are way too costly."
"It could be more user friendly, in terms of the end-user experience."
"There is a definite learning curve to starting out."
"Make it easier to include roles and user controls, as it is horrible now."
"On the technical side, it would be nice to see aspects of the recent acquisition of Phantom make it into the core Splunk Enterprise, not just become a part of the premium Enterprise Security."
