"We haven't really experienced any glitches or bugs."
"The feature I find most valuable, is the data integration."
"The alerts are the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature is log reporting."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is its ability to get information about all of the security measurements in my environment."
"The tool is efficient in collecting, monitoring and evaluating logs."
"The features I have found most valuable are log searching and log analytics, both of which are quick features."
"It is very easy to monitor multiple cloud environments. It's like a single pane of glass for us. We can use it to monitor our on-prem and both of our cloud environments as opposed to having different tools for each environment. It makes it all come together in one tool."
"I would like to be able to extend it to all of our data centers, whether they are in the cloud or not. It would be helpful if I could connect everywhere."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"The installation and monitoring need improvement."
"The reporting part should be made simpler. While we can obtain all the reports we need, we always have to create work-arounds to get them."
"The product does not have SAP monitoring."
"I would like to see support for notification via SMS."
"The pricing has recently risen. I know they've changed what is covered under the license, however, it doesn't change the way we use it and adds nothing to our experience, and yet we now have to pay more."
"The Configuration Wizard needs improvement, because not all vendors are present."
"They do not have all the features that I expect right now."
"The solution's stability is an area that has room for improvement. It needs to provide constant stability to its users."
"We have both on-prem and cloud, and the challenge is getting all our log data aggregated or streams aggregated so that it is real-time. We do a pretty good job of that, but our organization is not using it as a security platform when it can do a great job of that."
"It's a bit difficult to use. It takes some time to get into it and to get it to do what you would like it to do. It is not straightforward to use it."
"Splunk would be better if some tools were integrated to be able to take action on security or network concerns."
"We still use Splunk Enterprise licensing. A lot of the newer features go into Splunk Cloud before Enterprise. We're not looking to switch our licensing over, so we're falling behind on the newer features."
"Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring's data analytics can be improved by including suggestions for various types of continuous monitoring."
"This solution is difficult to configure and the instructions are complex."
