"I would like to see better visualization options. That would allow me to build out more visually pleasing dashboarding in Sigma."
"The product doesn’t have prebuilt dashboards."
"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."
"Things have to be managed manually"
"The platform is too expensive for small businesses. Splunk should focus more on delivering something for small businesses and entrepreneurs."
"It's not easy or feasible to reach out to Splunk directly."
"There should be continuous customer engagement and training programs on the new features and capabilities introduced by the solution."
"Splunk Enterprise Platform should include more integrations with other security tools."
"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."
