Executive SummaryUpdated on Jul 13, 2025

Splunk Enterprise Security and Coralogix compete in the domain of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM). Splunk appears to have the upper edge due to its comprehensive range of features, including advanced machine learning and flexible data integration.

Features: Splunk Enterprise Security excels in robust SIEM capabilities, data integration, and real-time analytics through Search Processing Language (SPL) and schema-on-read technology. It supports structured and unstructured data with powerful log management and correlation capabilities. Coralogix is known for its simplicity and efficient support for observability and monitoring needs, particularly in logging and metric processing.

Room for Improvement: Splunk's pricing model and the complexity of scaling and integrating advanced features like SOAR are often criticized by users. It also presents a steep learning curve. Coralogix lacks advanced AI integration and offers less flexibility in dashboard customization, which could be improved.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Splunk Enterprise Security offers diverse deployment options, including on-premises, cloud, and hybrid models, but its technical support has inconsistent response times. Coralogix is optimized for deployment in public cloud environments like AWS, and its technical support is praised for accessibility and effectiveness, though improvements in advanced troubleshooting could enhance user satisfaction.

Pricing and ROI: Splunk's licensing cost, primarily based on data ingestion volume, is high but provides significant ROI through thorough analytics and threat management. Conversely, Coralogix offers a cost-effective, scalable pricing model, which is more predictable and appealing to smaller companies or those with diverse data needs.

SaaS platform used by developers to store and conveniently search for logs

If a company has the budget and the log service is critical for them, I would say use Coralogix. It is a very good service for that. I would rate Coralogix an eight out of ten. It is an excellent service for storing logs for a long time. The capacity is unlimited for unindexed logs. The cost model is also very efficient because you pay for the ingested data per month. This can be compared to a solution like New Relic where you have to pay it upfront and cannot limit the data ingestion. Coralogix provides an easy way to search for logs and to visualize them. This a great feature because developers are constantly looking for or browsing logs.

Built-in searches and unified data access streamline alert investigation and boosts analyst efficiency

The two features I appreciate the most in Splunk Enterprise Security are the built-in searches, which have been very easy for us to get started with right out of the box, and the fact that it accesses all of our other systems. You can access it as a pane of glass rather than having to search individually. We also have the option to compare our analysts from our service to service. Splunk Enterprise Security helps our SOC team prioritize and investigate high-fidelity alerts more effectively by providing a more in-depth look and the ability to access a lot more of our data. Instead of jumping from several segmented systems, it allows us to have everything brought together in one place. For example, you have to move from our purview to our build system and to Splunk Enterprise Security, and it enables us to streamline that process. The built-in features of Splunk Enterprise Security, which we recently procured, have given us a good starting point and demonstrated the value of the product, providing an easy way to sell it to our company. The ease of getting everything into our purview helps us, and it serves as a good start for the investigation part in one location rather than what we usually have, which is jumping from system to system to system. Splunk Enterprise Security plays a role in our company's strategy to combat insider threats and advanced persistent threats by currently being in its technical test phase. We are still rolling it out, and it should help us find any insider threats based on information that our policy states should not be present in our system. Splunk Enterprise Security's risk-based alerting (RBA) has impacted our alert volume and analyst productivity because we've got many different systems feeding into it. However, it has helped to make it easier for our analysts to go through a set of events rather than 100 alerts. RBA allows us to streamline the process and customize it for our analysts. When it comes to leveraging Splunk Enterprise Security's dashboards and visualizations to communicate security posture to executives, it's pretty straightforward for any type of information. The visualization is easy to understand, but I haven't had any direct conversations with our executives.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."

"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."

"The most valuable feature of Coralogix is that it is a very good vendor for metrics."

"The solution is easy to use and to start with."

"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."

"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."

"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."

More Coralogix pros

"The tool drastically reduces SOC overhead. Its integration with our tool suite is great and helps us correlate events. The solution is also a lot faster than our standalone instances."

"I really appreciate the all-integrated SIEM feature of Splunk Enterprise Security, which serves as a one-stop shop to get all security tasks done."

"Our clients are easily able to modify and evolve their implementations."

"It provides logs in one place, so they are easy to find. It collects the logs from multiple places, then you have just one place where you see the whole flow from the front-end to the back-end."

"We saw the granularity that we could get from Splunk far exceeded what we already had. We had the ability to have our security team really focus on the platform and stay within the platform, but they could correlate with a variety of other stakeholders, and our stakeholders were growing."

"Splunk's advantage is its search capability. Its search is notably faster. With Splunk, I can search easily on keywords. That is great."

"Correlation search, in general, is valuable because it allows us to search multiple data sources easily."

"UBA, User Behavior Analytics, is a key feature."

More Splunk Enterprise Security pros

Cons

"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."

"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."

"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."

"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."

"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."

"The customizable dashboards haven't really helped with my company's efficiency at all, and I think there's room for improvement."

"The documentation of the tool could be improved"

"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."

More Coralogix cons

"Splunk can improve its third-party device application plugins."

"Many of my clients want to get better at Splunk, but they're afraid of using the tool because they feel it's too complex for them."

"I haven't found a way for me to create my own plugins and integrate them into Splunk, but this isn't necessarily a limitation; it could simply be a lack of knowledge on my part."

"It needs integration with a configuration management solution."

"The most significant challenges I face when using Splunk Enterprise Security for advanced threat detection are the false positive alerts."

"I find the process for customizing, developing, testing, deploying, and refining detections in Splunk Enterprise Security to be challenging at times."

"When deploying Enterprise Security, the biggest challenge or the most amount of work that you're going to spend time on is onboarding your data and getting it into a position that allows you to search it uniformly."

"The security can be improved."

More Splunk Enterprise Security cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."

"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."

"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."

"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."

"Splunk is a bit pricier, but the benefits and ROI are huge."

"Pricing and licensing is quite expensive. But for the value the product provides, it seems at par in the market."

"Splunk Enterprise Security is not a cheap product, but I think it is worth every dollar that you pay."

"I remember Splunk being relatively affordable. Kibana was more reasonable, but you get more with Splunk. If I was suggesting something, I would probably suggest Splunk because it is better to pay a little bit more and get a lot more."

"Our customers often complain that the price of Splunk is too high."

"We have seen ROI and improvements as we have continued to use the product, but they are more reactive."

"I am not personally involved with the pricing of the solution."

"I think that most of the monitoring solutions are expensive."
