Real-time data with a user-friendly interface
The most valuable features are real-time data, introspective data, and input data. The interface is also very easy to use MashZone could be faster and provide more support for IoT platforms. I've been using MashZone NextGen Business Analytics for three years. This solution is stable. I believe…
UzairKhan - PeerSpot reviewer
AI-driven analytics significantly enhance operational decision-making
I am currently working with the solution, but I need to know from which NNTT. The interface is okay; its interface is good, and user interface is good. I would recommend Splunk Cloud Platform to other users and organizations because it adds value to the organization; you can do different things with it because it's a pure analytical tool, not only a SIEM tool. I am mostly focused on Splunk Cloud Platform because I chose this vendor due to the feature set that was offered by Splunk Cloud Platform; it was not being offered by any other vendor. Splunk Cloud Platform is the vendor I am referring to, not NNTT. Maintenance for Splunk Cloud Platform has been done manually, not automatically. Usually, one person takes part in maintenance. Regarding the number of users for Splunk Cloud Platform, it involves discussing the number of organizations or the number of people working in those organizations. In general, I would rate Splunk Cloud Platform a nine.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Mashzone is the best product on the market for process analysis."
"The technical support from Germany is very good."
"The most valuable features are real-time data, introspective data, and input data. The interface is also very easy to use."
"This solution is made to be easy-to-use. If you can use Excel, you can use MashZone."
"Everything is maintained by the Splunk support team. Users do not have to maintain any physical servers. They do not have to maintain indexes and searches. It reduces a lot of work on the user side."
"The Splunk Cloud Platform has reduced our mean time to resolve. It has easily saved 20 to 30 minutes every time someone gets locked out. We get 10 or 15 instances per day where people get locked out. It definitely saves a few hours per day."
"The solution is user friendly and has extensive uses."
"Splunk Cloud's most valuable features are log aggregations, dashboarding, business management, reporting, and business controls. Additionally, it has awesome indexing and the solution is always improving"
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Cloud Platform is its flexibility and readiness because it's already prebuilt, and everything is click-to-go."
"Splunk Cloud has helped us to be able to focus on getting more information out of our data."
"It is a stable product."
"The most valuable feature is we don't have to deal with any back-end server maintenance because the solution is cloud-based."
 

Cons

"MashZone could be faster and provide more support for IoT platforms."
"MashZone is not very good to use with big data, statistical analysis, or financial analysis. This is not what it is built to do."
"Customization could be simplified."
"When one of my customers needs an app, and I am able to find that app on the Splunk base, I have to create a ticket and wait for five days for them to download the app into the cloud environment. That is probably one of the main things. It is painful because I have to wait to get that app in the cloud."
"From an enterprise standpoint, we are more limited in terms of what data we can export and how we can present it."
"There are a lot of functionalities that are missing for Splunk Cloud hosted on GCP but they are available on AWS. Adding more IPs to allow lists and many other functionalities are not supported on Splunk Cloud hosted on GCP. One good example is the ingest action which is not there in Splunk Cloud hosted on GCP. I wish they would add these missing features to the GCP platform."
"Splunk Cloud Platform should have better integrations with its suite of tools."
"They need to provide more training options."
"I have not come across anything that I would consider missing as such. If anything, sometimes we have dashboards that would not go into the dark mode. It is a minor issue, but it is the only thing that I wish was there. The dark mode would definitely help."
"We're interested in learning more about the new AI features, especially the natural language to SPL conversion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I do not have much idea. We previously used 1 GB at the cost of $600. Both on-prem and cloud licenses have the same price. There is no difference. It did not impact the cost because the costs of the on-prem license and the cloud license are the same. We did not have any issues with that. Overall, its price is reasonable."
"Splunk Cloud Platform's pricing is a little on the higher end."
"My company has a license for Splunk Cloud Platform. My company also has a license for Splunk Enterprise."
"The certifications are costly."
"The cost of using Splunk Cloud Platform is high, but the value it provides is worth the investment."
"The Splunk Cloud Platform is expensive."
"I do not know what that is anymore. I have not been involved with that for a couple of years, but I know we are paying a lot."
"I am familiar with the pricing and licensing model a little bit. I am not sure about the particulars of the actual price that we have, but I do like the idea of going towards a more CPU-based approach rather than the ingest approach because it allows us the ability to ingest more data if we need it."
