Pros
"It provides visualization of risk levels.""It facilitates infrastructure readiness and consistency."

More Evolven Pros →

"Recently, Splunk upgraded to version 9.0.02, which includes excellent data dashboards and visualization effects.""The product is adept at log mining.""Splunk incorporates a lot of elements that help to reduce security risks. For it to reach certain compliance, we need to have some security insight. Splunk is a very good SIEM, it’s a top solution, but the best feature is its cost of visibility. We have all the most important features to detect vulnerabilities or risks.""Splunk provides immediate visibility into key business metrics and new business insights that deliver immediate value.""The indexing and data collection are valuable.""I have found the installation can be of medium difficulty to very complex depending on the use case.""There are quite a lot of things that we find useful. Splunk agents are useful and good. Its UI is quite impressive.""It definitely does help with both auditing and as well as regular monitoring. SOC does more monitoring, but ES also gives you other features that are auditing-related. The dashboards are also beneficial."

Cons
"Alerting needs improvement."

More Evolven Cons →

"The administration of the cluster and app deployment to indexers or search heads can be done only using ssh access and command line, there is no GUI tools for that.""Sometimes the communication with support happens with multiple staff. They should reduce the time to resolution.""The GUI can be improved. Splunk has always suffered from having a kind of goofy UI, it needs some updating.""We do have to educate developers on how to not blow it up. It is a little to easy to write an expensive query and overly stress the system. This could be improved.""The level of scalability depends on the license you have. You can expand or reduce it based on the environment. It does cost more money to scale, however.""It would be nice if Splunk reduced the cost of training. Their training sessions are way too costly.""There are new services which are coming up. If Splunk can catch up with the speed of Amazon, and with the integration, instead of us waiting for another year or so, that would be good.""They should make data onboarding easier."
