Find out in this report how the two Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
We are seeing a return on investment from using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform because we are getting less production issues by thirty percent, as I mentioned earlier, making it a great investment.
We do not need to look at all the day's metrics on Grafana dashboards; we run our chaos experiments in a production environment to see how reliable our product or service is.
If we needed ten people to do tests once upon a time, now, using Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, we can do it with a fifty percent reduction in employees.
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.
Risks can mean that if one failure happens, it can result in risks in hundreds of thousands of USD.
It has saved me a lot of money and a lot of time.
When I have questions or run into issues with Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, their support team is helpful and responsive.
The customer support for Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is good overall.
The technical support is excellent, and I would rate it at ten.
We typically have weekly calls with the technical staff, and whenever we encounter issues, they usually reply with solutions within one or two days.
I would rate Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) support at nine or 9.5 because it is a highly effective and handy tool.
Gremlin Reliability Management Platform scales smoothly for running more chaos experiments, adding more services, or supporting a larger team.
More than scalability, I thought about availability because it is a really important thing of the architecture tools.
The scalability of Gremlin Reliability Management Platform depends on the scalability of the underlying infrastructure that we are hosting it on.
Splunk is highly scalable, with the ability to expand efficiently.
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) scalability allows us to predict analytics such as service degradation and perform root cause analysis through metrics, logs, and traces.
I have not seen any downtime or issues with its behavior or performance.
The setup, however, must be done correctly as incorrect deployment can lead to issues.
Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) fails if you do not have good hardware requirements.
I would rate the stability of Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) as a perfect ten; it is an extremely stable tool.
I think it would be useful to have some integration with Splunk or other log collectors, or maybe in the future, the ability to link Dynatrace or any other observability platform.
If we can integrate it with natural language, could we talk to Gremlin Reliability Management Platform and have it configure some of the basic settings so that non-technical persons can also work on Gremlin Reliability Management Platform-like tools?
The user interface is great, the integration is smooth, and Gremlin Reliability Management Platform has a fantastic support team that helps us a lot in many cases.
I would appreciate additional features in the next release of Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) such as cloud infrastructure monitoring including CICDs, Kubernetes, and similar technologies.
On-cloud upgrades are easy, but on-premises upgrades are very painful.
If Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) could handle real-time call-outs automatically—not just incident creation—this would reduce our dependency on PagerDuty and consolidate processes within Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence).
It is not so cheap, but it has very powerful features.
My role does not incur costs for us since we have an NFR for Gremlin Reliability Management Platform that we can use in our case.
Splunk ITSI tends to be more expensive compared to some open-source solutions.
I believe the pricing is based on daily volume ingestion.
The pricing reflects usage levels, and compared to others in the market, Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) provides a reasonable solution.
There are really two pathways along: fewer incidents because with Gremlin Reliability Management Platform, we can make every part of the infrastructure more solid, and less downtime because we can test more architectures and then things like how to put in high availability clusters.
The best feature that Gremlin Reliability Management Platform offers for me is the prebuilt reliability test; I think that is the best feature along with the automated scheduling.
One of my best features of Gremlin Reliability Management Platform is the built-in chaos experiments, which gives you the reliability score of your service.
The predictive analysis can give you proactive information about potential bottlenecks that can occur on applications, desk, storage, SQL servers, databases, or other systems.
One valuable feature is the scheduled maintenance window provided by Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) because Splunk does not offer this scheduling maintenance feature in the core product, but Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) helps us with these maintenance reports.
The most beneficial aspect for me is that it is AI-enabled, providing us with very good analytics.
