Cybersecurity Director at Infra-tech
Helped the organization to provide high-security access to applications and performs well
From the point of view of a user, it is a scalable solution. The solution performs well with growth and is easily accessible. There are less than one hundred users because it's part of a SIP company. But in the main group, it has three thousand users. The idea is to grow and provide our service to two thousand users.
Ahmed Naguib - PeerSpot reviewer
Director at Techpace
Dashboard design excels while prediction algorithms need improvement
Splunk User Behavior Analytics is still an immature product, so it still needs some R&D to be able to be mature in the market. The prediction, algorithms, and ML codes behind Splunk User Behavior Analytics need to be more tuned. The logic needs to be reviewed because it has many false positives. For Splunk User Behavior Analytics, it is not yet a mature product and we are not recommending this to mature customers for now. The machine learning algorithm in Splunk User Behavior Analytics is actually the core thing that needs to be updated because this feeds all the other functions inside it. If the ML functions are not good enough, that means the risk scoring and all other related information will not be correct.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We mainly use Citrix for deploying applications and providing centralized access to our clients."
"The solution is easy to handle."
"Very good scalability."
"Splunk User Behavior Analytics is known for its advanced analytics and data correlation capabilities, which help in detecting patterns, anomalies, and security threats."
"Splunk User Behavior Analytics is a one hundred percent stable solution."
"We have logs everywhere and trying to look at those logs on an individual basis is quite cumbersome, so taking a tool like this that brings all the logs together for us to dissect and analyze is something that we knew would provide great value."
"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."
"This is a good security product."
"In Egypt, we have phones that provide wide internet services to the customer and the customer wants to know what the customer satisfaction and service was, then they post on their Facebook or Twitter page to measure the customer satisfaction and after one or two days they start to take the comments and they enter these comments to Splunk and the UBA starts to make correlations and analytics on this data, and finally, the managers or the decision maker get the results, which is wonderful, and the customer is satisfied."
"The solution is definitely scalable."
"Splunk is highly valuable for query purposes."
 

Cons

"Lacks recording features."
"I believe there are some performance issues with the solution."
"The remote access features need improvement."
"I would like improved downward integration with other tools such as McAfee and other GCP solutions."
"It would be good if the solution had an analytics tool that allowed us to analyze the data without writing specific queries."
"The correlation engine should have persistent and definable rules."
"I would like to see an enhancement in the automation of creating the rules."
"In the future I would like to see simplified statistics and analytical threats, as well as a more user-friendly interface for dashboards."
"High data ingestion costs can be an issue, especially for large enterprises, as Splunk charges based on the amount of data processed."
"The machine learning algorithm in Splunk User Behavior Analytics is actually the core thing that needs to be updated because this feeds all the other functions inside it."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is fairly priced. There are no additional costs involved, one only needs to pay the licensing cost."
"Pricing varies based on the packages you choose and the volume of your usage."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
"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."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."
"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
