Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."The deployment of our solution across a number of servers using Ingres .NET has meant that we can protect the database server behind a highly secure firewall and deploy the front end solutions on a normal web server."
"Great platform with user-friendly interface and GUI."
"The UI of Splunk makes it easier for our analysts to move around and see what they need to see."
"We are using Microsoft 365 and we're using the Exchange Mail Service. It's good for monitoring that in particular."
"Being able to track impossible travel logins and things of that nature is valuable. We can track user logins from various IPs, various countries, and at various times to see if everything adds up."
"Capability to expand the functionality through custom code for data inputs, commands, visualization, alerts, and machine learning."
"You can check up on security from the dashboards."
"I have also been able to take advantage of some of the more complex statistical capabilities when analyzing logs."
"The log aggregation is great."
"The ability to reset the log file without stopping the DBMS would be helpful for us."
"This is not really a monitoring solution."
"Free-floating panels in the dashboards are like a glass table."
"Endpoint access is the only issue I can think to mention, even though the endpoint access we have with Cisco is fine."
"The initial setup is complex, but this is necessary. We needed to take into consideration how to direct log files from thousands of machines to Splunk, and how to ingest those files."
"An area of improvement would be the licensing of the solution. They need a free license, which would allow faster lead times."
"I would like to see an updated dashboard. The dashboard is a little out-of-date. It could be made prettier."
"It needs integration with a configuration management solution."
"The configuration had a bit of a learning curve."
