Pricing and Cost Advice | |
Information Not Available | Splunk is really expensive. Splunk should be able to integrate with other product using the free version. The pricing and licensing of the product are quite high. Splunk's cost is very high. They need to review the pricing. They have to go back and totally readdress the market. It's a little bit expensive for a small to medium enterprise. I think the price could be improved. I am not personally involved with the pricing of the solution.
