We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Provides the strongest support for automation.""It monitors all our servers, and if there is any problem it straight away sends us an alert. If It's a faulty component, we can see it from there. It sends an alert.""Deploys faster new virtual services.""Administration-wise it's going to be easier. More smooth and more flexible.""The best part is that you can integrate a two-way network. Earlier we could not manage the storage and ToR switch. Now we can create a LAN with our storage without any interface. In terms of switch management, it is now easy to understand the current configuration. It provides centralized management. It provides a single pane, and you can easily do all updates in one shot. It is a great product.""The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation.""It gives us a view of all our servers, which we did not have before in real-time.""We lose less time managing the machines."

"Aggregation searches have reduced time and difficulty of identifying trends and conditions which need to reviewed.""The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Security is website activity monitoring.""The stock analysts and security people use one single dashboard (one single location) to check our logs.""In the past we used the different application to collect logs. We used SurfWatch and VMware to do so. But, we found that the Splunk has more capacity to do more in less time. They provide a aster speed to index all the events , and this is a huge asset.""The Splunk queries are valuable.""The most valuable features are the logs, which allow us to identify what happened and who interacted with the web repository.""Splunk's schema on demand is incredibly useful. I do not have to worry about what my users will need when we onboard their data.""The logs on the solution are excellent."

Cons
"Those features, coming in version 4, that we're looking for are the discovery, primarily. But I think the scope-based access control is of interest, although, we didn't see any directory integration, so that, in itself, seems like it's still limited.""​I saw, maybe three years ago or two years ago here, or in Barcelona, at the HPE Discover conference, a feature that you can update Clusterware with VMware. But the feature is still not live in production. Currently, you have to do all the firmware updates and then you have to do the VMware updates. So you have two reboots and it would be better if it was just one.""Specifically, it would be great if we had the ability to reapply the server profile faster.""It needs more reporting capabilities.""​We have a version 3 and a version 1.2, but the upgrade process from the 1.2 to the 3 is kind of an issue.""HPE OneView should be able to cover more device models apart from ProLiant and Synergy.""The network configuration part of HPE OneView needs improvement. The solution has way too many features, and there's a need for proper configuration indicators to be put in place.""​There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again."

More HPE OneView Cons →

"Could be more user friendly.""The solution could improve by making it more business analysis oriented. The way it is now is designed more for developers.""I would like additional features in different programming models with the support for writing queries in SQL or other languages, such as C#, Java, or some other type of query definitions.""A problem that we had recently had was we licensed it based on how much data you upload to them every day. Something changed in one our applications, and it started generating three to four times as many logs and. So now, we are trying to assemble something with parts of the Splunk API to warn ourselves, then turn it off and throttle it back more. However it would be better if they had something systematically built into the product that if you're getting close to your license, then to shut things down.""I would like Splunk to add more integration. QRadar has many indications with more products than Splunk.""DMC should be a little more intuitive with better dashboarding. Seeing the cause of data flow can be tough to track down.""Over time I will have more requirements and I can foresee the solution could improve the search algorithm to run and output the data faster.""The Web Application Firewall will send you too much information because it's more dedicated to security than a normal firewall."
