Utilize artificial intelligence for faster issue response and seamless ITSM integration
The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features. These capabilities help us gather more information and analyze it faster, leading to better responses to issues. The tool is also excellent at integrating with ITSM services, providing a seamless alerting system for our customers.

The installation process is the first aspect I dislike about Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence). If you do not configure it correctly, you will encounter issues in the search head. Because we use a distributed environment where each component has its own specific roles, installation is critical and requires careful attention. Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) is built with many applications. It is a compressed file, and when you extract the Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) app, you receive approximately 19 apps. Some applications, add-ons, and packages must be installed on specific components. If you do not configure an application correctly, it will not work. Sometimes we encounter issues during installation because of this complexity. I believe the installation process should be more uniform, meaning it could be deployed across all components to avoid post-installation issues. Sometimes after installation, you receive errors, and users cannot access Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence). We have experienced this type of issue due to installation errors. I believe there is currently room for improvement regarding scalability. When we create Glass Tables containing many searches, the Glass Tables sometimes fail due to memory constraints, and we receive error pages. Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) should have a lightweight version to address these concerns. I would rate current scalability as medium.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Excellent level of support."
"The support we get from eG Innovations is truly outstanding."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring."
"What I like about eG Enterprise is that it's easy to use, it's a simple product, and you can get up to seventy-five to eighty percent of the required information based on real user experience and diagnostics."
"The auto-configuration or auto-Thresholding is very important because it saves a phenomenal amount of labor and setup costs and time."
"We use it to monitor all of our Windows platforms and servers."
"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"The most valuable features are the mapping of the entities, which provides a comprehensive analysis, and the service analyzer for thresholding."
"Regarding ROI percentage, we estimate a 30 to 35 percent saving on resource costs and around 25 to 30 percent savings on inventory expenses, all credited to utilizing Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) effectively."
"The most valuable feature is the Glass Tables. It gives you a nice, good overview of your KPIs. It's really slick and clean."
"ITSI's most valuable feature is that it's easy to integrate DLP."
"In my opinion, Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) is better than QRadar. With the help of Splunk, we can get results."
"I particularly like the preview feature because it provides a prompt experience for impact analysis."
"Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) positively impacts my organization by predicting many failures beforehand, helping us save money and preventing business disruptions by allowing us to address issues early."
"Whatever I have explored has been beneficial."
 

Cons

"There should be more price flexibility to adapt to different kinds of customers. For small and medium businesses, eG Enterprise is usually too expensive."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"The solution should improve on the security side and include some more API integrations into wider application platforms."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower."
"I can understand why they designed the user interface (UI) the way they did, but sometimes in the management of the eG Manager, it can be a bit clunky."
"I would not buy this product again knowing what I know now. It takes too much time and it is still not where it used to be."
"would like to see improvements in the alarm display console."
"If the product had some prebuilt machine learning features, it would add value to our use cases."
"If they can somehow integrate it with AI in the near future, it will definitely be a game changer."
"The installation process is the first aspect I dislike about Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence). If you do not configure it correctly, you will encounter issues in the search head."
"However, a minor disadvantage is that alerts must occur multiple times before incidents are created; for instance, if the same event occurs only once or twice, an incident may not be generated immediately, whereas repeated occurrences will lead to prompt incident creation."
"Splunk ITSI generates numerous false positives and has the potential for enhancement."
"ITSI is an almost perfect tool, but there is room for improvement in a few features like the deep dive and multi-KPI alerts. We're using most of the features like service API, coding searches, and aggregation, but our team members hardly use multi-KPI and deep dive. We don't use the multi-KPI or deep dive because everything is available in the service KPI. I don't think this feature is necessary."
"Predictive analytics, in terms of preventing incidents before they occur, still needs time to mature."
"One of the main downsides is the complexity of configuration and maintenance, especially when dealing with large-scale environments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You may get some monitoring products with certain licensing you may own. Some of these can take ages to configure and setup, along with needing a license to drive the software."
"The product is very cheap."
"There are two licensing options: Perpetual and SaaS-based. The main offering, in terms of what eG prefers to offer, is the subscription-based rather than the Perpetual License. The price could be cheaper."
"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"They gave us a good price, when they were found out we were looking at other products because their price was very high. We were looking at another solution, then we came back to them was because they brought the price down. We selected them for three years."
"I know that it is expensive, but I do not think there is another solution that can do similar things for that price."
"The cost of the modules is a bit high for non-global companies, making it difficult for them to afford Splunk ITSI."
"I would prefer that the price be reduced, as it would be easier to implement it and to sell it."
"Splunk is pretty expensive, but it gives you a decent insight into the data. It is easy to learn, and ITSI has a great interface. You can run those queries and pass the data. I"
"The licensing is based on data usage."
"Pricing has some room for improvement."
"Its pricing has been changed as per the market. You get a good support service with it as well. They have 24/7 customer support. There is a portal, and if you are having issues, they are available in order to resolve them. So, its pricing isn't too much."
"It is interesting. I am not involved that much lately, but if I recall correctly, you license primarily on the volume of data that you are using in Splunk ITSI, but there is no way Splunk can ever check if that is true, so that is interesting. We are not doing it, but someone can pretend to just use 10%, and it would be super cheap. It is tricky, but it is more tricky for Splunk than for us."
