"The initial setup is pretty straightforward.""There are a lot of third-party applications that can be installed.""The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Security is website activity monitoring.""Recently, Splunk upgraded to version 9.0.02, which includes excellent data dashboards and visualization effects.""We can quickly search for almost anything across many log sources in seconds.""We were able to create a catalog of dashboards and have a holistic view at all levels. We could understand our business much better. Real-time errors, which were buried in emails before now, surfaced up on dashboards.""This solution helps us increase our productivity.""The most valuable features for us include its robust log management capabilities, which allow us to efficiently handle and retain logs for extended periods as needed."

Cons
"The area that needs improvement is reporting.""When compared to others, if you look at the integration aspect, I believe that some aspects of integration can be enhanced.""There is room for improvement in the algorithms. Although I said that we have a very solid starting point - our existing library is already very comprehensive - we constantly find areas where we need to develop new algorithms. That is common across platforms. Any vendor with a solid starting point would still need to continue to evolve."

More Securonix UEBA Cons →

"Most of my interaction is with the user community, which is how Splunk wants it. When I need help, that community is very hit or miss.""This is a costly solution.""It is important to make sure that everything is built off of the threat models and all the underlying items within Splunk.""If you have to do your own stuff, such as customized charts, it is a little bit more work, but once you're familiar with the Splunk query language, you can pretty much do whatever you want. In terms of features, it should probably have the features that other competitors provide.""When we do a rollout from the server or host or anything, we'd like to see more automation. It would save us time.""If you monitor too much, you can lose performance on your systems.""The product's price may be an area of concern where improvements are required.""Its pricing is extremely high. There are other tools out in the market that are competitive. They do not necessarily have all the functionality, but they are competitive. The professional services we have used have been high as well in comparison to the market."
