Cons
"The user experience needs to be improved.""One area where Qlik Analytics Platform could be improved is in providing better support for batch processing and traditional ETL workflows.""It would be great if decentralized teams would have more features to manage the metadata on the dashboards, setup the specific user access rights and rules to govern incoming and outgoing data sets from/to other teams, and more features to separate the different data process layers (e.g. extraction, transformation [data quality, business rules]).""More freedom for custom visuals and dashboard creation would be an improvement."

"Sometimes, queries don't give proper results, and the indexes go down.""Based on my experience, I've noticed areas for improvement, particularly in support. Developers typically interact with support personnel who may lack technical expertise when raising support tickets. This can result in delays as initial interactions involve sharing documents before escalation to higher support levels.""The Splunk Enterprise Platform has room for improvement, particularly in automating the permissions process during app promotions. Currently, permissions are manually set when different teams request an application move to production, which is time-consuming. Automating this process would streamline operations by automatically assigning the appropriate permissions and roles to specific services or teams, reducing the need to review each request ticket manually.""Splunk Enterprise Platform should include more integrations with other security tools.""There should be continuous customer engagement and training programs on the new features and capabilities introduced by the solution.""Splunk is not an out-of-the-box solution like Micro Focus or Zabbix. You have to create your request to collect the data and add crucial components to the software.""The solution’s pricing could be improved.""There is room for improvement in terms of scalability."
