Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The best feature is the ease of developing dashboards.""SAP Lumira is the best system in the world, at least in my opinion. I like that it's a stable system and that many people in my company have development experience in SAP Lumira. The solution keeps on improving and has excellent support.""The most value that Lumira provides is in its ability to consume the Business Objects universe.""Geographic hierarchy and the ability to connect with SAP sources, such as CRM, ERP, and BW.""It is fairly easy and fast when it comes to using it.""The most valuable features of SAP Lumira are the dashboards, geographical elements, and graph filtering, and the usage is similar to a website which makes it easy to use.""Beautiful visualizations."

"I can trace an event back to its root cause. I can find the root cause instead of just looking at the symptoms across different things.""It's made searching for data easier. Users like it. We're still in the migration process, but overall, it's a lot easier to use.""The most valuable feature is we don't have to deal with any back-end server maintenance because the solution is cloud-based.""The log search capabilities are very good.""Everything is maintained by the Splunk support team. Users do not have to maintain any physical servers. They do not have to maintain indexes and searches. It reduces a lot of work on the user side.""Splunk Cloud's most valuable features are log aggregations, dashboarding, business management, reporting, and business controls. Additionally, it has awesome indexing and the solution is always improving""We only buy the services we need. We don't have to pay for other things we don't.""Its monitoring is completely automated."

Cons
"I'm not a fan of using SAP Lumira because it requires putting in a lot of information by keyboard directly because it requires some coding, so this is one area for improvement. From a user point of view, SAP Lumira is a complex system to learn and teach, so another area for improvement in the solution is that it needs to be more user-friendly.""Lumira uses a lot of memory resources, so the execution of dashboards is slow.""Lumira's capabilities feel like that of a store app with the intuitiveness of a desktop app, which is not a good combination.""SAP Lumira can improve if they game more capability to the end user to prepare dashboards because it's more of an IT task to create them. In Tableau, we can drag, drop, and create. However, in SAP Lumira, we need a designer and a separate KT to be able to do it well.""It needs the ability to drill down more. Analyzing data with Lumira at times becomes a bit difficult.""It needs an easier printing feature.""It would be great to have more ETL capabilities so that the user can do more cleansing/mining on his/her side."

More SAP Lumira Cons →

"The pricing model makes the product costly.""The search for bulk data needs to be improved. When we were looking for the flow, we had to search really hard. I wanted to request the Splunk team to add some features for better search because getting the flow of the bulk data was sometimes hard.""Splunk Cloud could improve by having pre-defined templates. It has very good design views, but there is no predefined template. You have to define your own. If they could add predefined templates for different use cases.""When one of my customers needs an app, and I am able to find that app on the Splunk base, I have to create a ticket and wait for five days for them to download the app into the cloud environment. That is probably one of the main things. It is painful because I have to wait to get that app in the cloud.""The only thing that is missing from Splunk Cloud is the command-line interface.""The dashboards should be easier to customize.""Splunk should increase the frequency of new feature releases, particularly those related to real-time operational flow monitoring and analytics reporting.""Splunk Cloud Platform should improve its integrations and consider multiple integrations or direct integration with other platforms like Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, or AWS."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "PowerBI is way more capable at a much better price point: $10 per user without all the associated setup costs."
  • "In terms of cost, SAP Lumira is less affordable."
  • More SAP Lumira Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The licensing is based on the amount of data that we send to the cloud on a daily basis."
  • "The price is something that people complain about."
  • "The licensing costs depend on the state of your environment and the fees are paid on a monthly basis."
  • "The pricing model makes this an expensive solution."
  • "There are additional features that you would need to purchase depending on your use case."
  • "The cost of using Splunk Cloud Platform is high, but the value it provides is worth the investment."
  • "I am familiar with the pricing and licensing model a little bit. I am not sure about the particulars of the actual price that we have, but I do like the idea of going towards a more CPU-based approach rather than the ingest approach because it allows us the ability to ingest more data if we need it."
  • "It is a touchy subject because we are locked into it. That goes back to the rehydrating data. We cannot have the retention that we want to store for legal and compliance purposes because that is seven years' worth of data for some of the indexes, so we ship them off into S3 buckets and install them there, at which point they are invisible to Splunk, so we have to rehydrate them, but we cannot rehydrate those pockets into Splunk Cloud. We have to rehydrate them into a self-hosted version of Splunk, which can take days to set up and get going. I would not call Splunk's licensing and pricing predatory, but they have made it very difficult to maintain the independence of your own data."
