Find out what your peers are saying about Tableau, Qlik, Splunk and others in Data Visualization."The automatic update of the graphs from a dashboard is very convenient."
"The optimization and flexibility of visualization tools."
"Having a tool where you can find logs that were generated months ago, and being able to search over a long period of time, is great."
"The SIEM is the most valuable feature of the product."
"From my experience, the visual aid that it provides is most valuable. There are charts and other means to provide information."
"It has the ability to correlate data, analyze and review it."
"The search function for spam is like a google search. You just enter and it will quickly show you the results."
"To get visibility from your network devices, servers, and security devices is a great feature."
"Splunk has facilitated the correlation of information security logs to look for incidents which could cause damage to the company's infrastructure, as well as financial losses from leaks."
"It helped us consolidate all our solutions into an easy tool to use for various employees."
"Splunk is extremely flexible, which allows us to create custom visualizations along with other customizations."
"This solution should allow the user to combine two indices into one graph."
"Having a kind of wizard that would help you when you are typing your search would make it easier and quicker to refine your search, and ultimately find what you are looking for."
"Security could be improved thereby avoiding the necessity of a third party plugin."
"It works as intended for us, and we are getting everything that we need out of it. If anything, its initial setup can be improved a bit."
"The GUI can be improved. Splunk has always suffered from having a kind of goofy UI, it needs some updating."
"The use cases provided by Splunk are a good starting point, but could cover many additional topics to ensure that a smaller or less experienced shop might maximize the value of an ES deployment."
"The GUI could be improved to include some of the capabilities that other BI solutions have. The layout is a little restrictive where you can’t resize all the panels to exactly how you would like them without tweaking some XML code."
"Splunk's ability to analyze malicious activities scores an 8 out of 10, but there's room for improvement. By analyzing emerging patterns, Splunk could identify and predict potential threats more effectively."
"The security can be improved."
"Its setup is a little bit complex for a distributed environment. Their support can also be better. If we miss the response for more than a week, they usually close the case. Sometimes, it can take us more than a week to reply."
"I think the machine learning should be emphasized. Now, it's really important to analyze Big Data, data mining. A SIEM solution, like Splunk, needs an improved data mining solution, artificial intelligence."
