Alerting improves incident response across teams and enables faster awareness before customer impact
Splunk Observability Cloud could be improved in terms of integrations with more technical add-ons, such as Zoom. Although they have one with Zoom, it's not available in the cloud, so having that feature would be beneficial. Essentially, Splunk should continue expanding to create easier ways to ingest logs from different products. The out-of-the-box customizable dashboards in Splunk Observability Cloud are very effective in showcasing IT performance to business leaders. However, there are aspects that could be improved, such as linking dashboards to one another. While IT leaders may not drill down, it's crucial to create levels of dashboards for technical users to find root causes, making it effective for stakeholders.

Has improved error detection significantly but still needs deeper integration with intelligent automation
I have been using Unomaly or LM Envision by LogicMonitor for a year for internal purposes. I personally don't use metrics to evaluate Unomaly's performance as I have a team who handles that aspect. The endgame has moved towards agentic AI. Two years back, it was supposed to be the endgame with ML and prediction anomaly. The world has moved on. Having Unomaly, even the best anomaly doesn't make too much of a difference. The endgame is now about the metrics of autonomy rather than anomaly. What is the degree of autonomy? What is the return on autonomy? Those are the metrics I'm more interested in than just having the anomaly. The world order has shifted, and the KPIs have shifted. They already have Gen AI and agentic AI features, but we haven't used them so far. I will continue to use it in the future for now as it's only been a year. We don't want to change anything internally for now. I would recommend Unomaly to other customers because anybody using observability can and should use Unomaly in the new world. I can't think of any types of companies I would not recommend it to because observability cannot exist without Unomaly nowadays. On a scale of 1 to 10, I rate Unomaly a seven.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I have primarily used it to go back into the past and understand why something happened. It provides enough information to do research and figure things out."
"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."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is its ability to get information about all of the security measurements in my environment."
"The solution overall is very valuable for me."
"The vibrant dashboards are valuable."
"The tool's stability is great."
"Once configured correctly, the analysis reporting the Splunk APM provides is better than that of the other APM tools."
"This solution is very quick to deploy as it is a SaaS solution and integrates with tools like ServiceNow."
"Unomaly's anomaly detection capabilities contribute to maintaining system reliability; we cannot find all errors humanly, we cannot configure every possible threshold, and in the new world of intelligence and AI, we need to have this intelligent way of finding out the anomalies."

Cons

"Unfortunately, with our current setup, we just have to implement Log Observer in a couple of instances so that we can have that integration with Splunk Observability Cloud."
"The UI enhancements could be a way to improve the solution in the future."
"Splunk Observability Cloud could be improved by having more integration with Splunk Cloud because at the moment they're two separate products. They're making great moves on what they call unified access; tighter integration is always a good thing."
"Overall, I would rate Splunk Observability Cloud a three out of ten."
"Support from Splunk is not very helpful because Splunk doesn't have a dedicated APM; they only have one APM engineer in Korea."
"The deployment can be quite complex."
"If a customer utilizes third-party tools and wants to forward data from Splunk Observability Cloud, seamless integration would be beneficial."
"In Splunk Observability Cloud, I notice room for improvement in synthetic monitoring. It does not provide output based on server names."
"Having Unomaly, even the best anomaly doesn't make too much of a difference."
"Having Unomaly, even the best anomaly doesn't make too much of a difference."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring is an expensive solution."
"The solution's pricing is costly."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The price of Splunk APM is less than some of its competitors."

"It appears to be expensive compared to competitors."
"The product is a bit expensive considering the competition but the company may negotiate the price."
