"The feature that stood out to me most from Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) was automated dashboarding or reporting. The solution lists the severity level of issues, and the response times.""Customers have noted the solution helps streamline incident management.""The most valuable features are the agility, being able to ingest many data sources with no limitation on capacity.""In my opinion, Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) is better than QRadar. With the help of Splunk, we can get results.""Splunk ITSI helps us secure our environment by allowing us to create automatons that run when alerts are triggered.""One of the excellent features is the service analyzer, which is truly impressive.""The most valuable features are the mapping of the entities, which provides a comprehensive analysis, and the service analyzer for thresholding.""The root cause analysis is very helpful for us."

Cons
"The price has room for improvement.""This solution is difficult to configure and the instructions are complex.""The deployment can be quite complex.""It does not have a user-friendly interface and it is difficult to use.""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.""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.""The solution should have more sensors regarding fiber intelligence for security measures.""Splunk could be better integrated with configuration manager solutions so we can automatically resolve issues without human interference."

More Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring Cons →

"Integration is the most critical area to improve in Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI). It wasn't a great experience because you had to do a little back and forth to integrate the solution.""It could be a little easier to use with the thresholding. We've struggled a little bit with thresholding.""It would be advantageous to enhance the dashboard by incorporating sections for monitoring, service health, and a filter for the KPIs.""Some of our customers occasionally require the development of the connectors when there are no native connectors so that we can develop in Python or for customer slash comments as well. If they could adjust that, it would be ideal.""It is pretty okay. I am not sure whether the current release has already moved to the new framework where instead of the glass tables, we can directly use the Dashboard Studio. It would be nice to have that integrated into the same framework.""The problem becomes the price, as Splunk is an expensive product.""ITSI could benefit from a security model that would allow operations team members to get involved in model building, KPI implementation, and model maintenance, while maintaining appropriate segregation of duties.""It was an intimidating tool for us to jump into at the beginning."
