Executive SummaryUpdated on Jan 25, 2026

Splunk Enterprise Security and DNIF HYPERCLOUD compete in the security intelligence market. Splunk appears to have an advantage due to its advanced analytics and comprehensive data integration, offering superior real-time insights and operational intelligence.

Features: Splunk Enterprise Security provides robust data ingestion capabilities, real-time security insights, and excels in log management with schema-on-read technology. It offers powerful correlation across disparate data sources beneficial for compliance and incident response. DNIF HYPERCLOUD is noted for handling large EPS volumes with a cost-effective, open-source infrastructure. Its User Entity Behavior Analytics supports emergency response systems efficiently.

Room for Improvement: Splunk could enhance integration with various security devices and improve the user permissions system.

Development from open sources is very valuable but a huge infrastructure is required

The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used. The search configuration is a bit different than other OEMs or SIEM solutions like ArcSight or QRadar that are easy to search because they operate similarly. The logic is there and the solution supplies a pretty good explanation. Basically, DNIF spelled out is the opposite of FIND. You have to find commands whenever you want to search something. For example, a highway gets you to your destination but there is an alternate way people don't yet know about. Gartner or Forrester haven't yet studied it. We were a bit nervous when we were trying to get familiar with the solution. We wondered if we could realize ROI because the commands and ways of pulling data were different to us. We raised a case with the support team and their professionals provided the needed support. The command line is user friendly once you understand it. If you need immediate use, then you might want to get assistance from someone who is well-versed in methods for using key patterns to find things. Lengthier files for threat hunting or analysis are needed. The correlation happens, but exporting a large number of files to abstract them is not possible. For example, I want to present raw data to management so I should be able to customize a date range in my query and download the files.

Helps us detect cyber threats quickly and integrate multiple feeds effectively

Overall, the product is good, but when it comes to some infrastructure issues, we have to dig into more logs. There is no straightforward indication of an issue. Health check kind of dashboards are not available. More AI would help us, and more optimization, since security products run more queries. The AI module could suggest solutions, optimizing queries or workload balancing. If the product itself advises on running queries during peak times, it would be similar to what ChatGPT currently offers. We see quite a few issues on stability. Even last week, we faced something, and identifying bottlenecks is not easy. We need more SMEs, and there is no mechanism to tell us about indexer or search head issues. Self-monitoring dashboards could be beneficial. The technical support still requires more improvement. Often, primary support takes a lot of time and forwards most solutions to the engineering side. The primary support team has very limited knowledge to provide.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The beauty of the solution is that you can develop infrastructure for a data lake using open sources that are separate from the licenses."

"The solution is quite stable and offers good performance. It also works on a virtual machine. We haven't found any issues with it so far. It's been reliable."

"Great for scaling productivity for log monitoring purposes."

"Has a great search capability."

"The User Behavior Analytics is a built-in threat-hunting feature. It detects and reports on any kind of malware or ransomware that enters the network."

"I like the MITRE table, a feature I saw for the first time in the same solution. There was one MITRE tactic table, which can be used to identify threats if you have all kinds of rules enabled or if you have rules for all the tactics in the MITRE table. There are 14 tables in MITRE, and those 14 tables consist of multiple columns, tactics, and techniques. It was one of the first SIEM tools I saw that had that particular MITRE table. On that basis, you can create new rules and identify existing ones. At any point, if an alert is triggered, it will try to match it to any of those MITRE tactics. I liked that creating a workbook on MITRE business was straightforward. I also like that you can search using SQL or DQL."

"The dashboard is helpful, and it creates visualizations to let staff review event data and identify patterns and anomalies."

"The response time on queries is super-fast."

More DNIF HYPERCLOUD pros

"The Splunk user community and forum are most valuable."

"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."

"Combating insider threats and advanced persistent threats is an amazing feature of Splunk Enterprise Security, and it gives us the visibility that we need for those detections that other software doesn't have."

"The completeness of the solution is what we like the most."

"The features of Splunk Enterprise Security that I find most valuable are the correlation and correlation data."

"Splunk has improved our operations by giving us access to more information and allowing us to deploy more use cases."

"The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Security is website activity monitoring."

"The community marketplace is useful; often, you do not need to rely on Splunk Enterprise Security support due to the wealth of online documentation available—Splunk docs are truly beneficial."

More Splunk Enterprise Security pros

Cons

"The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used."

"The solution should be able to connect to endpoints, such as desktops and laptops... If this solution had a smart connector to these logs- Windows, Linux, or any other logs - without affecting the performance of the connector, that would be wonderful."

"I feel that DNIF needs to invest more in marketing, considering that it operates at a very competitive speed."

"There are currently some issues with machine learning plug-ins."

"Dependency on the DNIF support team was frustrating."

"I think DNIF HYPERCLOUD can implement the ability to export more than 100,000. At the moment, we can't go beyond that. So many times, if you're checking for the firewall logs and working on something related to authentication or network-related traffic, while that log count is low, the account goes beyond that. You can't restrict the logs or the amount of data you can export. It's very important for my situation. It would be better if they could increase the capacity of exports. Although there are many more types of searching in DNIF HYPERCLOUD, people still struggle to query out what they want because not everyone is good at SQL or DQL. The easiest way to query out in DNIF is using the GUI-based interface. But in the GUI interface, you can use operator calls. It gets tricky when you want to search for a specific type of event. You don't know where it will be passed and whether it will be consistent. In the initial phase, it's tough for us to use DNIF. You cannot pass every event in a stable DNIF. When we used that particular tool, we used to get those logs, but sometimes many things are not getting passed. So, we used to export the sheet or export the data into Excel and weigh the required details. In the next release, I would like them to improve the export of the columns and make the application more user-friendly. I would also like a threat-hunting feature in the next release."

"The vendor is fairly new and it's not as big as some of the international competitors. It's not a mature product. If you ask them to move data, it might take a lot of time."

"The EBA could be improved."

"The solution's automation could be improved."

"Previously, they developed custom connectors or add-ons for a lot of applications. But that number can be upgraded still. There are a lot of applications in the world that are not supported."

"AngularJS/ReactJS inclusion could be made easier in GUI."

"Splunk should align its security principles with those of other vendors like SentinelOne. Splunk has mature APIs that can communicate with various security applications and devices. Splunk can process more to produce an understandable dashboard."

"The tool should include more real-world use case examples built out either through videos or in the community."

"The tool itself is very difficult to configure. It's great for its number of inputs, for the different types of systems devices, and things that it could collect information from. To actually make good use of it, you need a fairly dedicated team of people that have some reasonably good programming or modeling skills to be able to do the things that you need to do with it. Whereas a lot of the other tools are better packaged for that, and so require a lot less training and a lot less dedication."

"I would like to see ability to master management. In terms of clustering, how it manages clustering needs improvement."

"The case management area of the ES could be improved. The ability to move cases through various stages and states. The ability to close a case would be key improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is based on the log size."

"Price-wise, the product is quite economical. I rate the solution's price as three or four on a scale of one to ten, where one is considered to be a very economically priced tool."

"The solution requires a huge infrastructure and that is costly."

"It can be cost-prohibitive when you start to scale and have terabytes of data. Its cost model is based on how much data it processes a day. If they're able to create scaled-down niche or custom package offerings, it may help with the cost. Instead of the full-blown features, if they can narrow the scope where it can only be used for a specific purpose, it would kind of create that market for the product, and it may help with the costing. When you start using it as a central aggregator and you're pumping tons of logs at it, pretty soon, you'll start hitting your cap on what it can process a day. Once you've got that, you're kind of defeating the purpose because you're going to have to scale back."

"The Splunk licensing is high."

"The pricing and licensing of the product are quite high."

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

"The price can always be lower, but it is fair at the moment. The cost efficiencies depend on the licensing and how much data we are bringing in. We have a fairly large footprint, so it is cost-effective."

"Splunk is really expensive compared to all the other tools on the market, including Microsoft Sentinel."

"Splunk Enterprise Security is expensive but the solution is equipped with a lot of features."

"Splunk is expensive based on our current requirements, but it's obviously worth what we pay."
