IP Network Engineer at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Key features are roaming, application control and the firewall
We are partners of Aruba as well as sellers and customers. My job in the company is IP network engineer.  The roaming is a feature that works very well. In addition, the application control and firewall features are very good. These are all important features and make the product a valuable one.…

Enterprise Architect at Wipro Limited
Offers intuitive deployment with strong customer support and advanced analytics features
There are improvements that could be made to Splunk User Behavior Analytics as any product will have advantages and disadvantages. Scalability is one consideration. For example, the advantages include rapid auto scaling to meet demand. A disadvantage is that it can lead to cost overrun if not properly factored or governed. The speed of deployment offers faster provisioning as an advantage, but it can require substantial automation skills and infrastructure as code expertise, which can be challenging. Cloud provides major operational benefits such as agility, automation, resilience, and global access when setting up on Cloud. However, it introduces challenges such as cost control, complexity, and vendor dependency. For example, global reach allows deployment of apps and services closer to users worldwide, but data sovereignty concerns exist and region selection must align with compliance requirements.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I haven't heard of any issues with stability."
"Roaming feature, application control and firewall features."
"The most valuable feature is the end-user monitoring, and if there is any abnormal behavior on the machine, the administrator will be alerted."
"The roaming is a feature that works very well, and the application control and firewall features are very good, making the product a valuable one."
"The solution appears to be stable, although we haven't used it heavily."
"The most effective one is the integration with other vendors."
"We have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats, and we are now 40 percent or more effective or faster."
"The most valuable feature is being able to take data and put it into other systems so that we could see the output, and to see where we need to apply our focus."
"It's straightforward in terms of configuration and troubleshooting and log management and monitoring as well. These are the edge points in addition to it being a modular solution where you can capitalize on your current licenses with extra licensing models, which can match the customer's business requirement and it can help the customer to design or to actually plan for their own roadmap."
"Splunk is highly valuable for query purposes."
"This intelligent user behavior analytics package is easy to configure and use while remaining feature filled."
"The solution offers good searching and allows for easy creation of dashboards and reports."
 

Cons

"The packet analyzer needs improvement."
"Technical support is unfortunately a little slow."
"I would like to see improvements made to the dashboard, where you can get the information with a simple click."
"The dashboard could be simplified. You don't have a clear cut view and you have to dive deep into the options to gain some understanding."
"Enhancing the storage model that they are using is necessary."
"I wouldn't buy Splunk because of the cost, because you can't budget for it."
"They should work to add more built-in correlation searches and more use cases based on worldwide customer experiences. They need more ready-made use cases."
"I would like to see a better tracking intelligence module with lower costs fully integrated with a user behavior analytics module."
"It would be good if the solution had an analytics tool that allowed us to analyze the data without writing specific queries."
"We'd like the ability to do custom searches."
"One thing I would say is that they should continue to expand it on more devices."
"I'm not aware of any lacking features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is based on the number of users. The evaluation license is free, you can download it from the website and try it out first."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."
"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."
"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."
"Pricing varies based on the packages you choose and the volume of your usage."
"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
