Find out what your peers are saying about Splunk, Wazuh, Datadog and others in Log Management."It offers the capability to view live log ingestion directly from the console which means you can seamlessly manage live log data ingestion alongside accessing and analyzing older data from the past."
"Splunk's strongest suit is its user interface. We can integrate multiple solutions and adjust settings in the Splunk interface."
"The flexibility of the search capability is most valuable. You can use it for more than just a basic log aggregator. It is powerful in that regard."
"It helped us consolidate all our solutions into an easy tool to use for various employees."
"From my experience, the visual aid that it provides is most valuable. There are charts and other means to provide information."
"The data representation options in the dashboards are excellent."
"The ability to analyze huge amounts of sales data and accurate prediction of sales forecasting is the most valuable feature."
"It is easy to use, and easy to implement."
"Three features stand out for me: the SDK for writing Python, the customizable and adaptable diagnostic dashboard, and the optimizer for collecting data."
"There are some overlapping features found in multiple tools."
"The user access control could be much more granular, so that the admins can control r/w/x access for specific features of the product like dashboards, etc."
"Splunk could be improved by reducing the cost. The cost is one of the biggest challenges for us in keeping to our production requirements."
"Sometimes, there is latency in the logs."
"Custom visualizations are real hard. While the default visualizations are good, creating enhanced visualizations are complex."
"If it could be made available as a service, this would be much better than as a product."
"Splunk is very expensive. The license is based on the volume of the logs ingested. I was responsible for managing the contract with our service integrator. I don't know the precise details of the competing solution, but I have heard that Splunk is more expensive than others. I don't know what the going rate is on the market, but I think there are at least two competitors that are less expensive. We have experienced a few issues with our service providers in terms of log filtering and ingestion, so we continue to pay a bit more per day for our logs."
"Its user interface for everything other than the charts can be improved. Some parts of it can be simplified a bit, such as when importing documents that have the network traffic. When you're going through the information about the network traffic, you have to have the expertise, but even if a program is supposed to be for IT support, it is good to make it user-friendly because it gets easier to train people. When something goes wrong, the more difficult a program is in terms of UI, the harder it is to fix the issue."
"They should make data onboarding easier."
