"Great platform with user-friendly interface and GUI."
"The scalability of the solution is amazing because it can collect a lot of data and you can have your own structure to monitor this data."
"It's better than IBM, in my opinion, because it's an independent entity."
"I have also been able to take advantage of some of the more complex statistical capabilities when analyzing logs."
"The ability to digest any information and then correlate it in accordance with what you need is valuable. The ability to connect to pretty much everything and bring the information in the same format is also valuable. On top of that, we can use their language in order to create and customize the dashboards, correlations, or analytics that we want to incorporate."
"The ability to ingest any data and display it in a way that anyone can understand."
"It is user-friendly. It is more effective than other solutions. The support and help for troubleshooting and the documentation from Splunk make it very effective."
"The alerts are very effective."
"A little bit better documentation on the details is needed because this subject is not easy sometimes to understand, which limits the capability of the software."
"Integrating tools and creating use cases could be easier. It's hard for a junior security engineer with only a couple of years of experience to write use cases. They can do it, but it's much easier in a solution like IBM QRadar. Setting conditions is like a multiple-choice type of thing. It's a more user-friendly process."
"The integration with all our tool sets felt like we were reinventing the wheel, which was a pain point for us."
"While Splunk Enterprise Security offers valuable features, its cost is high and could be more competitive."
"Splunk needs local technical support."
"The solution could improve by making it more business analysis oriented. The way it is now is designed more for developers."
"From the commercial point of view, they have to bring down their costs."
"The CIM model is the method Splunk uses to normalize data and categorize its important parts, but it is quite complex."
"Splunk can improve its third-party device application plugins."
