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."
"Very good scalability."
"The solution is easy to handle."
"Splunk's technical support is amazing."
"We have seen a decrease in the mean time to detect threats by about 15 to 20 percent."
"The solution appears to be stable, although we haven't used it heavily."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to search through a large amount of data."
"The most valuable features are its data aggregation and the ability to automatically identify a number of threats, then suggest recommended actions upon them."
"Features like alerts and auto report generation are valuable."
"Splunk is more user-friendly than some competing solutions we tried."
"We are really pleased with Splunk and its features. It would be practically impossible to function without it. To provide a general overview of the system, it's important to note that the standard log files are currently around 250 gigabytes per day. It would be impossible to manually walk through these logs by hand, which is why automation is essential."
 

Cons

"The remote access features need improvement."
"Lacks recording features."
"I believe there are some performance issues with the solution."
"I would like to see a better tracking intelligence module with lower costs fully integrated with a user behavior analytics module."
"If the price was lowered and the setup process was less complex, I would consider rating it higher."
"Enhancing the storage model that they are using is necessary."
"The correlation engine should have persistent and definable rules."
"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."
"A disadvantage is that it can lead to cost overrun if not properly factored or governed."
"The dashboard part could be improved. While using it, I noticed two options: Classic, which is adequate yet only in black and white, and another one that is more advanced or smart."
"The dashboard part could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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