Users value data-driven insights for optimizing business operations
The most important features are the site-to-site user experience, including details like how many users are on a site, the number of users on an SSID, and identifying guest users in business premises. These features help in understanding peak times during business hours and are highly valued by customers in Qatar.

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 solution is stable due to its Cloud-based nature, which eliminates downtime or crashing issues."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"It can monitor, get the data, and then report on the data."
"This solution is very quick to deploy as it is a SaaS solution and integrates with tools like ServiceNow."
"The most valuable features include user time tracking and the ability to analyze application load times."
"It is a great resource for us because we have so many different data sources and to be able to aggregate that and put it through a concise dashboard or an alert really helps."
"The product retains a lot of log data for subsequent analysis."
"The best feature of this product is the latency and processing of all the telemetry that is being received, which gives full visibility at the right time."
"The feature I find most valuable, is the data integration."
"Splunk Real User Monitoring (RUM) has one great advantage in that if they have SAP users, they can monitor their SAP applications."
 

Cons

"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Before October 2024, there was room for improvement in the UI to make it more user-friendly. The Client Insight page on Juniper Mist Premium Analytics could be made simpler."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"Splunk would be better if some tools were integrated to be able to take action on security or network concerns."
"Overall, I would rate Splunk Observability Cloud a three out of ten."
"Once you see the issues related to the scalability part, you need to understand that it is a warning triangle. After seeing the warning triangle, you need to realize that you cannot trust any of the numbers you see in the chart because it is not a complete, full data set."
"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."
"The dashboards are used mainly to visualize information about the infrastructure, but it isn't easy to construct or use the dashboards. While we tried to resolve the issue by calling support, it would be easier if they had an AI co-pilot to identify the problem and help you solve it."
"A wide variety of logging makes log onboarding difficult."
"The price has room for improvement."
"The solution's stability is an area that has room for improvement. It needs to provide constant stability to its users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"It appears to be expensive compared to competitors."
"Splunk APM is expensive."
"Splunk Observability Cloud is expensive."
"Splunk's infrastructure monitoring costs can be high because our billing is based on data volume measured in terabytes, rather than the number of devices being monitored."
"This is an expensive solution."
"Licensing cost is the biggest argument I get from those divesting from Splunk. There are those within our organization who say we are going to go to other tools since Splunk is too expensive."
"The product is a bit expensive considering the competition but the company may negotiate the price."
"The price of Splunk APM is less than some of its competitors."
