Unified observability has improved real-time governance and now drives data-led decisions
Log Observer Connect is embedded here, but we are facing some delays in centralized log collection and analysis, which can be further fastened. We are collecting all the data metrics and decision-making insights, but all these data-driven decisions coming from different applications are not connected somewhere. A consolidated form or correlation of these insights is not happening between each other due to which we feel we are missing something significant. Some generalized feedback includes that predictive alerts or alarms which can be integrated with AI-driven alarms and alerting features should be established so that there is AI-driven intelligence and anomaly detection happening with a complete systematic process in service delivery. Application dependencies are huge, and business and operational dashboards should be improved. Right now there are very interactive custom dashboards, and every now and then, the personalization of enhancements keeps happening. KPI monitoring, executive reporting, and analytics have definitely been introduced to a great extent. There are few things in cloud-native monitoring, such as integration with AWS and Azure, where we sometimes do face lags. Those things can definitely be improved upon. I have used Datadog and Dynatrace before using Splunk Observability Cloud. Datadog was definitely recommended by most of our peers because of its very strong comprehensive observability and very strong and unique dashboard systems. Dynatrace was also very good because they have offered a lot of AI-driven analysis methods and processes, which was helping our organization a lot. Since our organization has a very strong IT ecosystem for agriculture, very different kinds of customized things are required.

A highly scalable and stable solution that provides excellent features and can be integrated with any product
The support team is more into R&D. They're not focused on support. The vendor lets the partners provide support for the solution. Partners must have StableNet-certified engineers. Complex problems arise for complex installations. When a problem is deep, it takes a lot of time to resolve it. It goes to the R&D and development teams. They do solve it, but the time taken could be reduced.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features include user time tracking and the ability to analyze application load times."
"The best feature of this product is the latency and processing of all the telemetry that is being received, which gives full visibility at the right time."
"The feature I find most valuable, is the data integration."
"The best features in Splunk Observability Cloud are the metrics; I can see any logs or anything related to the server or services we want to monitor, and the metrics are a good function."
"Dashboards help the application support teams to have a quick look at how their systems are running. It helps other teams as well."
"The feature I appreciate the most about Splunk Observability Cloud is Synthetic Monitoring."
"It is a good tool. It allows you to set alerts for application and infrastructure monitoring, and it allows you to create dashboards."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to customize dashboards based on my queries or any other customization I may need."
"The best features are the reporting, utilization, and network graph."
"We can integrate any tool with StableNet."
"The solution is stable."
 

Cons

"The deployment can be quite complex."
"The price has room for improvement."
"In future updates, I would like to see more predefined monitoring query solutions, which could be more effective."
"They can get more integration with a few more products. They can also update some of the dashboards that are in there now."
"I don't consider the solution scalable."
"Primarily, the logs in Splunk APM can be challenging to navigate and comprehend, making it difficult to understand the details within each log. Compared to other tools like LogDNA, which are more intuitive in this aspect, the logs in Splunk APM can require more effort to understand."
"I would like to see an improvement and some innovation in the customer interface, which puts something in your design."
"When we have too many detectors in place for one particular app, such as when I have created 50+ detectors through my account, the entire page becomes a bit loaded when creating the 51st detector, feeling heavy and taking time to load."
"The solution is expensive."
"The existing dashboard capability is there, but it is not user-friendly."
"The dashboard has a lot of room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Splunk offers a 14-day free trial and after that, we have to pay but the cost is reasonable."
"It is expensive."
"The pricing is based on several factors, including the scale of deployment."
"Licensing cost is the biggest argument I get from those divesting from Splunk. There are those within our organization who say we are going to go to other tools since Splunk is too expensive."
"Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring is an expensive solution."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"It appears to be expensive compared to competitors."
"The solution's pricing is costly."
