Real-time analytics and alerts improve application performance and network operations
OmniPeek's ability to convert application visibility into flow helps me quickly understand application performance over LAN, WAN, or wireless. Its real-time analytics, integrated with LiveNX, allow me to monitor business-critical applications and set up alerts for application performance issues. This centralized dashboard and alert system is highly valuable for maintaining network operations.

The installation process is the first aspect I dislike about Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence). If you do not configure it correctly, you will encounter issues in the search head. Because we use a distributed environment where each component has its own specific roles, installation is critical and requires careful attention. Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) is built with many applications. It is a compressed file, and when you extract the Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) app, you receive approximately 19 apps. Some applications, add-ons, and packages must be installed on specific components. If you do not configure an application correctly, it will not work. Sometimes we encounter issues during installation because of this complexity. I believe the installation process should be more uniform, meaning it could be deployed across all components to avoid post-installation issues. Sometimes after installation, you receive errors, and users cannot access Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence). We have experienced this type of issue due to installation errors. I believe there is currently room for improvement regarding scalability. 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) should have a lightweight version to address these concerns. I would rate current scalability as medium.

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 is OmniPeek is user-friendly."
"I believe the most crucial feature of OmniPeek search is the ability to sniff packets based on channel switching."
"OmniPeek shows the entire packet flow and structure, particularly in security-related scenarios, whereas Wireshark sometimes fails to capture all packets."
"The most valuable feature of OmniPeek is the ability to assign custom color codes to the different packets easily."
"The most valuable features are the voice bot, which checks the quality of service for voice, and the expert view that gives me insight on what and where to troubleshoot."
"The most valuable feature of OmniPeek was the ability it gave us to see the connection procedure."
"It's a solid piece of software. It's stable."
"This is a good product; I would recommend and encourage people to use it because it has helped me a lot in the field."
"The observability is great and valuable because it allows us to work with all our sets."
"Splunk ITSI helps us secure our environment by allowing us to create automatons that run when alerts are triggered."
"The most valuable feature is event correlation, which ensures that only one ticket is generated per issue, eliminating duplicates and reducing noise from multiple alerts."
"Splunk's intuitive interface and scalability make it accessible to non-technical users, and its capacity to monitor every millisecond of data across multiple applications is truly impressive."
"The solution has been stable."
"The service analyzer view and automatic creation of incidents are valuable."
"Splunk ITSI (IT Service Intelligence) positively impacts my organization by predicting many failures beforehand, helping us save money and preventing business disruptions by allowing us to address issues early."
"One of the excellent features is the service analyzer, which is truly impressive."
 

Cons

"The solution's automation has room for improvement."
"Sometimes setting up the filters for the product is difficult, and I can't quickly sharpen them from the home screen."
"I am not using OmniPeek for automation, we only do manual testing. Automation testing is tedious to do. The automation should be more user-friendly. I have exposed some APIs but the usage is not user-friendly."
"I would like to see the tool work in an open environment the same as how it does in a closed environment."
"OmniPeek needs to improve its performance level."
"I would like to see the saving feature improved. We have had issues if you do not save your progress then you have to start from the beginning."
"OmniPeek doesn't support Linux or Unix installations, which prompted the shift to Wireshark."
"Making it more clear on how to configure the filters, or really automating them, would be an improvement."
"One thing ITSI could improve on is the maintenance windows. I have a huge case where I had to implement something related to the maintenance window. If you try to look up the issues in ITSI, you have to check the incidents individually, and putting hundreds of hosts in maintenance can be a hindrance."
"It would be advantageous to enhance the dashboard by incorporating sections for monitoring, service health, and a filter for the KPIs."
"We have problems doing upgrades and operating alternate new versions."
"The cost of the license could be lower."
"The solution should integrate more features in NEAP."
"The dashboard function inside the individual episodes, not at the ITSI Notable Event Aggregation Policy level but actually at the correlation search layer, is an area where improvements are required."
"Splunk ITSI consumes a lot of CPU resources."
"When we check the service analyzer, and we have custom inputs, there are issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for this solution could be improved, as it is a very expensive product."
"There are different types of licenses available."
"We have only purchased the add-on once and have not paid for any subsequent versions as it was too costly for us."
"It would have been good if the product cost was much lower."
"The pricing of Splunk is a bit high."
"Splunk ITSI is expensive."
"Splunk is pretty expensive, but it gives you a decent insight into the data. It is easy to learn, and ITSI has a great interface. You can run those queries and pass the data. I"
"Splunk ITSI is a premium application and comes with a premium price tag."
"Splunk ITSI is expensive."
"Its pricing has been changed as per the market. You get a good support service with it as well. They have 24/7 customer support. There is a portal, and if you are having issues, they are available in order to resolve them. So, its pricing isn't too much."
"It depends on how big an organization is. If we have a lot of resources, the licensing needs to be upgraded. If we have a small environment, the licensing cost is definitely going to be less."
