The most valuable thing that we have seen within our group is the ability to ingest all this raw data and have it organized in a certain way so that different groups can get effective alerting from this massive amount of raw data that is out there.

There's a feature that allows you to connect to AWS infrastructure that we've been using. Its integration with the cloud is what we're looking forward to the most.

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.

It's fairly important that it has end-to-end visibility into our native environment. We host a lot of other programs in our program. We host an infrastructure platform. It's good to have the integration that we can pass on to our customers to show them that there are tools they can use to better their program while we're using them to better ours. So it's been pretty beneficial.

Splunk's ability to predict, identify, and solve problems in real-time is good. I was very happy with the keynote. A lot of the use of machine learning is cool. We're excited to get our hands on that once it makes its way to Enterprise.

It is a great resource for us because we have so many different data sources and to be able to aggregate that and put it through a concise dashboard or an alert really helps.

Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring gives us complete visibility without the need for storage. We can visualize our infrastructure. Where is the traffic going? Are there any attacks? What are our vulnerabilities?

The monitoring and the reporting tools are great. It can monitor, get the data, and then report on the data. 

You have the dashboard to see your different items. You create the dashboard to see if there was any incident as well; it creates incident reports for you. For example, if the hard drive goes beyond a certain limit, you can get notified. You can look at your CPU utilization or memory as well. You can set thresholds and monitor for all different types of information.

The solution is stable and reliable.

Technical support is helpful. 

We have witnessed an ROI while using it.

The Add data feature lets you gather any type of log and easily analyze it. This is easier than using other solutions like ArcSight or Elasticsearch for example.

We can use these logs with our data processes to explain our situation.

The ability to create custom dashboards is one of the best features and that's typically why most people deploy Splunk. Users can create dashboards for just about anything.

The solution has been improving its offering for the past year. It's in constant development.

I think the most valuable feature is that you easily get adapted to standard components. So, you don't need to involve the user with interface and GUI decorations. The tool just evaluates the logs in an efficient way. This enhances utility and efficiency.

In terms of the application performance security, application performance tooling has been a key factor for me using Splunk. We are also looking into options, like other third parties or even open-source tools that help the capturing the application performance, fine-tuning, which leads to the security aspect.
