Fabricio Nonato

Solutions Engineer at a tech services company with 51-200 employees

Provides seamless network setup and efficient management with potential for security integration improvement

Areas where the HPE Aruba Networking UXI can improve include the integration of SD-WAN and security in a single solution. Now, Aruba has developed an SD-WAN solution that is among the best, alongside WLAN. In Brazil, it's common to see many hospitals and government locations utilizing Aruba solutions. However, Fortinet is well-known here for combining SD-WAN with security in a single box, whereas Aruba and Cisco typically have separate solutions for each. This separation can be expensive for companies in Brazil as they have to acquire multiple boxes. Currently, around 50% of firewall sales in Latin America are from Fortinet, but I believe this trend is changing as Aruba develops its offerings.

Alerting improves incident response across teams and enables faster awareness before customer impact

Splunk Observability Cloud could be improved in terms of integrations with more technical add-ons, such as Zoom. Although they have one with Zoom, it's not available in the cloud, so having that feature would be beneficial. Essentially, Splunk should continue expanding to create easier ways to ingest logs from different products. The out-of-the-box customizable dashboards in Splunk Observability Cloud are very effective in showcasing IT performance to business leaders. However, there are aspects that could be improved, such as linking dashboards to one another. While IT leaders may not drill down, it's crucial to create levels of dashboards for technical users to find root causes, making it effective for stakeholders.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of HP Aruba Networking UX-I is its 24/7 monitoring capability."

"Aruba products have significantly improved our network reliability, as none of my teammates have logged a call to Aruba in the past year."

"The performance, elasticity, and efficiency of Aruba products have been exceptional."

"Splunk Real User Monitoring (RUM) has one great advantage in that if they have SAP users, they can monitor their SAP applications."

"The alerts are the most valuable feature."

"Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring reduces our mean time to resolve. We are more proactive than reactive."

"The best features in Splunk Observability Cloud are the metrics; I can see any logs or anything related to the server or services we want to monitor, and the metrics are a good function."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to customize dashboards based on my queries or any other customization I may need."

"The tool's stability is great."

"What I appreciate most about Splunk Observability Cloud is the correlation feature, specifically the ease of correlating logs and issues to those traces to see where within the path of the business function is failing."

"The features are pretty much ready out of the box."

Cons

"Some manual administrative tasks still need to be triggered manually, leading to lower efficiency."

"It would be beneficial if the tool offered a less expensive subscription as it is currently costly for our clients."

"Some manual administrative tasks still need to be triggered manually, leading to lower efficiency."

"Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring's data analytics can be improved by including suggestions for various types of continuous monitoring."

"The user interface of Splunk Observability Cloud needs a lot of work."

"They do not have all the features that I expect right now."

"Splunk APM should include a better correlation between resources and infrastructure monitoring."

"We still use Splunk Enterprise licensing. A lot of the newer features go into Splunk Cloud before Enterprise. We're not looking to switch our licensing over, so we're falling behind on the newer features."

"The UI of Splunk Observability Cloud is one of the major issues; it's old and has been there for more than 10 years, acquired by other applications from other companies. It's time to reinvent how the UI is going to work with the AI modules and integrations, making it softer and cleaner."

"The pricing would be one area for improvement."

"It would be useful if they provided some help pages. If you don't know too much about the tool, there should be more documentation readily available. It would be useful if they had a help button embedded in the solution so you could ask questions and get answers."
