Featured Reviews

Vaclav-Biba - PeerSpot reviewer
BI/DW Consultant at Neit Consulting
Enhanced analytics through metadata-driven reporting with enterprise-level visualizations enables competitive advantage
In my opinion, what can be better in Oracle Analytics Cloud these days is primarily about pricing. I am from the Czech Republic, which is our main market. The situation here in the Czech Republic is that Power BI rules the world. There are two main reasons for this. First, speaking about the Czech Republic specifically, and second, the Power BI pricing model appears cheaper compared to Oracle Analytics Cloud. The pricing model in Microsoft is more straightforward. With Oracle, you have the data visualization and enterprise lines, and to put it simply, both appear as more expensive options for customers trying to get oriented in the segment.

Has streamlined data integration and enabled real-time dashboard visualizations through a powerful search engine
Splunk Enterprise Platform has a vast and versatile powerful search engine with which I can handle all queries, and creating use cases and the search and dashboard is the main selling point, allowing me to visualize live dashboards. The platform has a powerful search engine, allowing the integration of custom AI such as ChatGPT. Splunk Enterprise Platform also has its own Phantom as a SOAR, which is much more refined and gives more accurate results than any other AI integrated SIM tool. In anomaly detection, I can live track anomalies and change the registry. Splunk Enterprise Platform serves as a time-saving solution because integrating other sources such as Syslog or router switch firewall is much easier.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I've discovered that the new layout of this product makes Docker sharing, machine learning support, and data backups more efficient. Unlike the older method of linking physical, pre-logical, and presentation layers separately, the new interface simplifies this process. Additionally, the integration of databases and machine learning is seamless, with the new visualization approach being particularly beautiful and highly beneficial."
"It's valuable feature is that it is user-friendly and doesn't require much time for understanding. The solution is stable. The initial setup was straightforward."
"The technical support services are good."
"It plays a crucial role in facilitating decision-making for various organizational stakeholders."
"It's really an enterprise solution. It has a dashboard, like standard dashboarding functionality. It also has reporting capabilities for producing pixel-perfect reports, bursting large volumes of a document if you need to. It has interactive data discovery functionality, which you would use to explore your data, bring your own data, and merge it with maybe the data from an enterprise data warehouse to get new insights from the pre-existing data. It has machine learning embedded in the solution. If you're new to machine learning, it's a really good way to get into it, because it's all within this platform, and it's really easy to use."
"It's great for consolidation and creating one source of truth."
"The advanced calculations by the tool are highly effective"
"A valuable feature is the speed of the solution."
"Splunk Enterprise enhances data analytics with its AI capabilities."
"The solution is very good for monitoring compared to other tools."
"The product is very easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Platform is that it's a customizable solution."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the load balancing technique, the forwarding technique, and SSL certification."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the analytics part."
"The most valuable features of Splunk Enterprise Platform include its performance, ease of implementation, and user interface, which are superior compared to other on-premises products."
"It's not just one feature I like the most. Every person wants to collect and rate logs, and I value how the Splunk Enterprise Platform handles this.The most valuable part for us is setting up the alerts and reports to manage the logs and log metrics. We use it to support every tool across the entire bank.We are the ones who manage all the data, and if there's any issue, everything depends on the Splunk Enterprise Platform."
 

Cons

"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"Its FAW feature has limitations in terms of usage."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
"The learning curve should be improved, and I'm uncertain if tutorials are readily available or easily accessible. We may have resorted to looking on YouTube for such information. Having easily understandable documents or guides for new users would be beneficial. AI integration would be an interesting feature to add in the next release."
"The pricing model in Microsoft is more straightforward. With Oracle, you have the data visualization and enterprise lines, and to put it simply, both appear as more expensive options for customers trying to get oriented in the segment."
"The product should improve its user interface. It should be welcoming and modern. Developers should also find it easier to build data models. Oracle Analytics Cloud needs to have better visualizations and more options in the marketplace."
"From my perspective, Splunk tends to be too expensive for smaller customers."
"The product doesn’t have prebuilt dashboards."
"Splunk could improve by enhancing its graphical view functionality. Compared to other BI tools, Splunk's graphic features are limited; customers desire detailed, rich visual effects, like world maps showing threat attacks as animations."
"The tool lacked in providing a shareable format. I had to use pivot tables and manually parse and edit the data to create a visualization-friendly format. It was helpful when we had an issue. What would make it stronger is if it were more proactive. For example, if it highlighted major incidents and their impact on users without digging through notifications, that would be better. Typically, the first question we get is, "Oh, we had an incident. How bad was it? How many customers were impacted?" So having that information pop up from the notification would be helpful."
"The Splunk Processing Language (SPL) poses a steep learning curve for new users."
"Splunk Enterprise Platform should include more integrations with other security tools."
"There is room for improvement in introducing more AI capabilities onto Splunk Enterprise Platform."
"Sometimes, queries don't give proper results, and the indexes go down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive platform."
"I would rate it a five out of five in terms of the value received for the price charge."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's pricing is generally higher than that of other vendors."
"Bottom line, the cost is really, really cheap compared to other solutions. Oracle has made a huge effort on the pricing."
"A highly cost-effective solution"
"The price is reasonable; it's quite a bit lower than Tableau and Spotfire."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"We pay on a monthly basis and it is $10 per user each month."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing around seven or eight out of ten."
"The solution's pricing increases with the amount of data used. This pricing model is acceptable because it aligns with the security features provided. It ensures that the price reflects the level of security and the amount of data we're managing."
"I rate the product's pricing a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. It is a very pricey tool."
"Splunk Enterprise Platform is an expensive solution."
"The solution’s pricing is moderate."
"The product is expensive, and the cost depends on the amount of data ingestion."
"If you exceed your licensed limit, the product will issue a warning, typically a five-license warning. Additionally, they send daily email notifications informing you about the breach. This prompts you to consider options such as minimizing logs or acquiring additional licensing to address the issue."
"The solution is expensive, so I rate its pricing a four out of ten."
