Easy to install, highly secure standards, and reliable
We use Oracle Security Monitoring and Analytics Cloud Service for security information, event management, and analytics. This has helped eliminate any external network attacks The security level that they are maintaining with the pre-authentication keys is very good. They are following the global…

Automatic reports streamline tasks and offers easy report gathering
The dashboard part could be improved. While using it, I noticed two options: Classic, which is adequate yet only in black and white, and another one that is more advanced or smart, though I forgot the exact term. I encountered several issues while trying to create solutions for this advanced version, which seem unrelated to query or data issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The security level that they are maintaining with the pre-authentication keys is very good."
"It's easily scalable."
"The solution is definitely scalable."
"Features like alerts and auto report generation are valuable."
"Splunk is highly valuable for query purposes."
"The product is at the forefront of auto-remediation networking. It's great."
"We are really pleased with Splunk and its features. It would be practically impossible to function without it. To provide a general overview of the system, it's important to note that the standard log files are currently around 250 gigabytes per day. It would be impossible to manually walk through these logs by hand, which is why automation is essential."
"Splunk's technical support is amazing."
"The solution is extremely scalable. Our customers are regularly scaling up after installing Splunk."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve by providing better documentation for beginners to learn, such as videos or other tutorials."
"The dashboard part could be improved."
"We want to have an automated system for bot hunting that enables us to detect anomalies predictively based on historical data. It would be helpful if Splunk included process mining as an alternative option. We have a threat workflow, but it would be useful if we could supplement that with some process mining capabilities over time."
"In the future I would like to see simplified statistics and analytical threats."
"The correlation engine should have persistent and definable rules."
"It could be easier to scale the solution if you are using it on-premise, not in the cloud."
"It would be good if the solution had an analytics tool that allowed us to analyze the data without writing specific queries."
"We'd like the ability to do custom searches."
"The solution is much more expensive than relative competitors like ArcSight or LogRhythm. It makes it hard to sell to customers sometimes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
"I hope we can increase the free license to be more than 5 gig a day. This would help people who want to introduce a POC or a demo license for the solution."
"My biggest complaint is the way they do pricing... You can never know the pricing for next year. Every single time you adjust to something new, the price goes up. It's impossible to truly budget for it. It goes up constantly."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."
"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
"Pricing varies based on the packages you choose and the volume of your usage."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
