OpenText AI Operations customer service is praised, but technical support faces mixed reviews due to efficiency and expertise inconsistencies.
Sentiment score

Splunk Enterprise Security support praised for knowledge and speed, but response times and complexity vary, premium options recommended.
OpenText goes out to bring the right people to answer any inquiries I have.
If you want to write your own correlation rules, it is very difficult to do, and you need Splunk's support to write new correlation rules for the SIEM tool.
They try to close issues as soon as possible, often just offering documentation links.
They are responsive and effectively resolve issues.
 

Scalability Issues

7.4
OpenText AI Operations Management excels in scalability and adaptability for managing complex infrastructures and varying data sources.
Sentiment score
7.7
Splunk Enterprise Security efficiently scales across environments, supporting large data volumes despite cost concerns, offering robust architecture.
They struggle a bit with pure virtual environments, but in terms of how much they can handle, it is pretty good.
It is easy to scale.
It's big in a Central European context, and small from a Splunk North American context.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
6.9
OpenText AI Operations Management is stable and reliable, though improvements and better documentation are needed for some modules.
Sentiment score
7.9
Splunk Enterprise Security is praised for stability and reliability, with minor bugs manageable under efficient configuration and resource management.
They test it very thoroughly before release, and our customers have Splunk running for months without issues.
It provides a stable environment but needs to integrate with ITSM platforms to achieve better visibility.
It is very stable.
 

Room For Improvement

OpenText AI Operations Management needs scalability, modern interface, better integration, improved automation, and streamlined licensing and support.
Splunk Enterprise Security needs improvements in rule engine, integration, cost-effectiveness, dashboard complexity, performance, customization, interface, and user training.
Splunk is more business-friendly due to its prettier interface.
Improving the infrastructure behind Splunk Enterprise Security is vital—enhanced cores, CPUs, and memory should be prioritized to support better processing power.
Splunk Enterprise Security is not something that automatically picks things; you have to set up use cases, update data models, and link the right use cases to the right data models for those detections to happen.
For any future enhancements or features, such as MLTK and SOAR platform integration, we need more visibility, training, and certification for the skilled professionals who are working.
 

Setup Cost

OpenText AI Operations Management offers flexible pricing but can be complex and costly, requiring careful evaluation for smaller companies.
Splunk Enterprise Security's high costs deter smaller enterprises, yet its features often justify the expense for larger organizations.
From a cost perspective, OpenText Operations Bridge is cost-effective as it saves us man hours.
I saw clients spend two million dollars a year just feeding data into the Splunk solution.
The platform requires significant financial investment and resources, making it expensive despite its comprehensive features.
Splunk is priced higher than other solutions.
 

Valuable Features

OpenText AI Operations offers integration, automation, centralized management, flexibility, scalability, and improved transparency for efficient alert handling.
Splunk Enterprise Security offers fast data search, scalable log management, real-time alerts, and seamless third-party integration, enhancing threat detection.
This integration ensures that when monitoring systems alert and subsequently resolve, tickets are automatically created and closed.
This capability is useful for performance monitoring and issue identification.
I assess Splunk Enterprise Security's insider threat detection capabilities for helping to find unknown threats and anomalous user behavior as great.
Splunk Enterprise Security provides the foundation for unified threat detection, investigation, and response, enabling fast identification of critical issues.

Ahmed Salman - PeerSpot reviewer
Powerful data integration, comprehensive automation, and hybrid compatibility
The data lake is a very powerful feature within OpenText Operations Bridge. It can integrate with any BI tool to collect AI data and perform a variety of functions. It offers hybrid compatibility and supports desktop application customization and cloud integration. Another essential capability is server automation, which became significantly easier with the software appliance for deployment. This solution also provides role-based access that enhances data privacy and security.
ROBERT-CHRISTIAN - PeerSpot reviewer
Has many predefined correlation rules and is brilliant for investigation and log analysis
It is very complicated to write your own correlation rules without the help of Splunk support. What Splunk could do better is to create an API to the standard SIEM tools, such as Microsoft Sentinel. The idea would be to make it less painful. In ELK Stack, Kibana is the query language with which you can search log files. I believe Splunk has also a query language in which they search their log files, but once you have identified the log file that you want to use for further security correlation, you want to very quickly transport that into your SIEM tool, such as Microsoft Sentinel. That is something that Splunk could make a little bit less painful because it is a lot of effort to find that log file and forward it. An API with Microsoft Sentinel or a similar SIEM tool would be a good idea.
