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.

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

"Very good scalability."
"The solution is easy to handle."
"The solution is fast, flexible, and easy to use."
"Splunk's technical support is amazing."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to search through a large amount of data."
"Because of some of the visualizations that we utilize, we are able to understand strange, unusual traffic on our networks."
"Features like alerts and auto report generation are valuable."
"The solution is definitely scalable."
"The solution appears to be stable, although we haven't used it heavily."
"The best features in Splunk User Behavior Analytics include anomaly detection, behavioral profiling, and risk scoring and prioritization functionality."
 

Cons

"The remote access features need improvement."
"Lacks recording features."
"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."
"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."
"I'm not aware of any lacking features."
"The solution is much more expensive than relative competitors like ArcSight or LogRhythm. It makes it hard to sell to customers sometimes."
"The correlation engine should have persistent and definable rules."
"Enhancing the storage model that they are using is necessary."
"The initial setup was complex because some of the configurations that we required needed customization."
"It would be good if the solution had an analytics tool that allowed us to analyze the data without writing specific queries."
 

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."
"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
"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."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."
