Pros
"The breadth of the data sources that Splunk can ingest data from is broad and deep and it does an exemplary job at handling structured data.""The level of robustness on offer is very good.""Splunk has facilitated the correlation of information security logs to look for incidents which could cause damage to the company's infrastructure, as well as financial losses from leaks.""The product is adept at log mining.""Splunk can extract all kinds of data. There's no limitation on what kind of structured and unstructured data one needs to extract — it can access any kind of data, including machine-generated data.""The Splunk queries are valuable.""One of the most valuable features is threat hunting. We can do threat hunting and identify if there is any malicious activity happening within our environment, which is a key feature for us.""The ability to quickly search logs, performance data, and other inputs has helped tremendously with troubleshooting."

Cons
"They should make data onboarding easier.""There can be a bit of complexity around some fields during the initial setup.""Given the ever-increasing number of threats, I would like Splunk to update its threat signatures more frequently.""I would like additional features in different programming models with the support for writing queries in SQL or other languages, such as C#, Java, or some other type of query definitions.""The user access control could be much more granular, so that the admins can control r/w/x access for specific features of the product like dashboards, etc.""Splunk can be an expensive solution. Technical support could be improved as well.""The solution could improve by increasing the performance. We have run into problems when large amounts of data are processed.""Integrating tools and creating use cases could be easier. It's hard for a junior security engineer with only a couple of years of experience to write use cases. They can do it, but it's much easier in a solution like IBM QRadar. Setting conditions is like a multiple-choice type of thing. It's a more user-friendly process."
