Easy to configure and easy to use solution that integrates with many applications and scripts
Actually, the most valuable aspect of Splunk is the data. You do not need to use your databases to perform all things from on all the servers we have. Splunk has three big things it can do with data: it can show it hot, warm and cold. The hot of it allows you to see the data as soon as things happen — maybe to the second. We have the warm, the warm will segment the data up to the hot up to three months ago. The cold will store all of the archives of all the data after the six months. After that, you can't make comparisons any further. In the future, we make Splunk in the SOC (Security Operations Center). In the SOC now, we use one feature, it's called the alert system. So in the future, we want to make it so we can send all the data and we can build its security and its management. It will be published in all the places as it is now. We need to do this so we can build more data centers from all the past and existing data crunch.

Offers intrusion detection and mitigation, known signature support, and a database for IPS but setup process is moderately complex
It's more about the SIDS (Snort Intrusion Detection System) For the intrusion detection and mitigation, it has helped us in sort of known signatures and all sort of things. So, we're very happy with the engine. That's the work. The most valuable feature is just seeing the database for IPS and…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution is fast, flexible, and easy to use."
"The most valuable features are its data aggregation and the ability to automatically identify a number of threats, then suggest recommended actions upon them."
"Splunk is more user-friendly than some competing solutions we tried."
"Because of some of the visualizations that we utilize, we are able to understand strange, unusual traffic on our networks."
"The product is at the forefront of auto-remediation networking. It's great."
"It's easily scalable."
"The solution appears to be stable, although we haven't used it heavily."
"It is a solution that helps test and measure customer satisfaction."
"What I like about Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is that it works okay. I don't have time to mess with the tool most of the time because I have way too many tasks to do, but Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System tells you when there's a problem, then it blocks the problem, so that's what I like most about it."
"The solution's IDS functionality filters the traffic and blocks malware by blocking the connections."
"I would rate TTPS's stability eight out of ten."
"The IPS signatures and the IPS database that are given are much better than what is commonly available."
"The monitoring is the most valuable feature."
"It integrates easily."
"The technical support on offer is very good."
"You don't need any hardware because the solution is on the cloud. I like that Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is easy to install and manage."
 

Cons

"In the future I would like to see simplified statistics and analytical threats."
"I would like improved downward integration with other tools such as McAfee and other GCP solutions."
"The ability to do more complicated data investigation would be a welcome addition for pros, though the functionality now gives most people what they need."
"The price of Splunk UBA is too high."
"We'd like the ability to do custom searches."
"If the price was lowered and the setup process was less complex, I would consider rating it higher."
"The correlation engine should have persistent and definable rules."
"Currently, a lot of network operations need improvement. We still need people to handle incidents. Our vision is to leverage status and convert it directly from the network devices. It would be ideal if we could take action using APIs and API code and remove manual processes."
"The firewall rules are limited."
"I find Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System a bit clunky, and updating it can be a pain in the neck because you need to do it from time to time, so this is what needs to be improved in it. I would also rather have an all-in-one system that does intrusion detection, protection, web filtering, and also serves as a firewall, and my company is moving to an all-in-one solution, but I'm unsure of how soon that's going to be. Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System also doesn't have enough bandwidth to handle the required traffic within my company, so it's going to be replaced."
"There is room for improvement in customer service and support."
"The solution is pretty expensive."
"Price is a significant factor that requires attention to enhance the popularity of Tipping Point among mid-sized data centres. Currently, Tipping Point is primarily adopted by sizable data centres, and smaller defenders might find it financially challenging to acquire. Recognizing this, efforts are underway to potentially introduce diverse models with varying capacities. This adjustment aims to ensure that a broader range of data sizes can benefit from the solution. Also, the continuous evolution of Tipping Point is evident in its features, particularly the personalized dashboard and related aspects."
"We need more integration. It would be good if Azure IPS and TippingPoint IPS and other products from Trend Micro like their DBI and IWSVA could talk between each other."
"The solution should provide the possibility to mix traffic and the traffic's geographical source to have improved functionality."
"TTPS is a bit behind in visuals, the UI, and some data elements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
"Pricing varies based on the packages you choose and the volume of your usage."
"My biggest complaint is the way they do pricing... You can never know the pricing for next year. Every single time you adjust to something new, the price goes up. It's impossible to truly budget for it. It goes up constantly."
"I hope we can increase the free license to be more than 5 gig a day. This would help people who want to introduce a POC or a demo license for the solution."
"We pay for Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System yearly. The cost increases if you add more users."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is an expensive product."
"It is an expensive solution and I would rate it three out of ten."
"It's an expensive product."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The price is in a market-suitable price range. So it's not expensive, but it's also not cheap either. The price is a strong point."
"TTPS is reasonably priced."
"TippingPoint is not as expensive as Palo Alto but it's not as cheap as Fortigate."
