"It allows for transparency into IT metrics for insightful business analytics."
"We can present to our management in real time the security of the batch management for the PCs, security regarding the network equipment. We're currently working in the Azure Cloud project, so we can send any logs from the cloud to Splunk. We can monitor them and we can present to the managers and customers. It's a very good solution for reporting. We use Splunk for reporting and monitoring of any solution in the company."
"We can easily configure things as required in relation to our use cases."
"The most valuable features include agility and Splunk Enterprise Security's ability to quickly search for alerted items, as well as the capacity to create custom alerts using the SQL language employed by Splunk."
"It's very flexible. If you look from the cloud implementation it is there. Reports are made quickly. Unlike other tools, it caters to all kinds of technical information on the front very easily. There's no need to put in any technical information. You can pull on the reports very easily, take action, and notify stakeholders."
"The indexing and data collection are valuable."
"The dashboards are the most valuable feature. We like the ability to drill in and see what queries are under the dashboard, build new visualizations, edit the querying, and see the reports."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Security is the comprehensive logging capabilities it provides."
"It needs to have better reporting. "
"It was very complex. There was poor native correlation. "
"The product was designed for security and IT with business intelligence needs, such as PDF exporting, but this has not been the highest priority. While the functionality is there, it could be developed more."
"My company could benefit from doing more Splunk training with Splunk consultants teaching us how to use it."
"The GUI can be improved. Splunk has always suffered from having a kind of goofy UI, it needs some updating."
"The setup time is quite long."
"For on-premise, it's more about optimization. With such a heavy byte scale of data that we are operating on, the search for disparate data sometimes takes about a minute. This is understandable considering the amount of data that we are pumping into it. The only optimization that I recommend is better sharding, when it comes to Splunk, so that data retrieval can be faster."
"Previously, they developed custom connectors or add-ons for a lot of applications. But that number can be upgraded still. There are a lot of applications in the world that are not supported."
"There are limitations with Splunk not detecting all user activity, especially on mainframes and network devices."
"The solution has a high learning curve for users. It's a little complicated when you're trying to figure out all the features and what they do."
