We performed a comparison between Splunk Cloud Platform and Splunk Enterprise Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We haven't had any limitations or problems connecting to our network devices."
"In my organization, Splunk Cloud Platform has improved the issue revolving around transactions."
"The solution is user friendly and has extensive uses."
"Dashboards and alerting are the most valuable features. The dashboards let us see how the system looks in terms of anomalies, and the alerts trigger us to go and look at what possible problems are happening."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Cloud Platform is the alerting feature."
"The Splunk search is powerful compared to similar solutions. We get millions of data points within seconds."
"Splunk Cloud Platform's most valuable features are enterprise security and ticketing integration."
"For my current requirements, the tool theme seems to be meeting my requirements, from a cost and requirements perspective."
"Splunk's real-time processing capability has been pretty good for my use cases."
"Splunk Enterprise Platform is an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure solution."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Enterprise Platform is that it's a customizable solution."
"Easy setup and maintenance"
"The most valuable features of the solution are the load balancing technique, the forwarding technique, and SSL certification."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the analytics part."
"It's not just one feature I like the most. Every person wants to collect and rate logs, and I value how the Splunk Enterprise Platform handles this.The most valuable part for us is setting up the alerts and reports to manage the logs and log metrics. We use it to support every tool across the entire bank.We are the ones who manage all the data, and if there's any issue, everything depends on the Splunk Enterprise Platform."
"The only thing I would say is an issue is the cost. It matches other products. The costs can be justified for the value that we gain. The entire threat analysis stack should come in a bundle. If the cost was matchable with other products I think Splunk would pick up in the market."
"From an enterprise standpoint, we are more limited in terms of what data we can export and how we can present it."
"Splunk should increase the frequency of new feature releases, particularly those related to real-time operational flow monitoring and analytics reporting."
"I have not come across anything that I would consider missing as such. If anything, sometimes we have dashboards that would not go into the dark mode. It is a minor issue, but it is the only thing that I wish was there. The dark mode would definitely help."
"Support could be improved."
"There can be more modules and more integration with other areas in the cloud and on-prem. I am not sure whether it includes network devices and things like that."
"The security connection should have a seamless integration. Other than that, the way we are using it, so far, it seems quite good."
"Customization could be simplified."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"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 platform is too expensive for small businesses. Splunk should focus more on delivering something for small businesses and entrepreneurs."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in terms of scalability."
"Things have to be managed manually"
"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."
"There is room for improvement in introducing more AI capabilities onto Splunk Enterprise Platform."
