A lot of customers had a hard time effectively searching within the data in Splunk. There is a learning curve from searches to indexes and using all the macros that we have created. It is a little difficult for somebody who has not used it quite a bit and does not have a lot of practice with it, but the AI features that we have been hearing about through Splunk will make it a lot easier for us to use human language to search this data. That is big. That is pretty powerful, and that will help a lot with our customers. At the Splunk conference, some of the talks have been about the AI platform and more effective and easier ways to search within Splunk through indexes and other things. These features will help correct some of the things with which we are having a hard time with some of our customers.

We still use Splunk Enterprise licensing. A lot of the newer features go into Splunk Cloud before Enterprise. We're not looking to switch our licensing over, so we're falling behind on the newer features. I know Splunk has plans to move their cloud features into Enterprise at some point. The only improvement we would like is to have more features put into Enterprise that focus on the cloud. Some people come from an on-prem environment and slowly move to cloud and would have to make a full jump into the Splunk Cloud licensing to get any of the cool Cloud features.

It has given us visibility into what is going on in the network, such as how much traffic is running to and from the services, but we are not using Splunk in a straightforward way. When we are looking into reports on how much data has been used, we need to look into another system and enrich it with data from Splunk. Splunk has drawn our attention to how the network is running. If there are alarms on things that are not functioning, it gives us early warning on problems that could arise. In terms of operational performance, the efficiency, Splunk has helped us improve. We could have found other tools that would have given us the same efficiency, but this was the tool that we chose. From that perspective, it has been of value to us. It would have helped us reduce our mean time to detect but I can only guess at how much; perhaps by 25 percent. And we would see a similar reduction for mean time to resolve.

Pricing

"I am not in that circle, but we are currently licensing based on our queries. That is working out for us. Previously, it was by volume of data, and now, we can store as much data as we want."
"I would rate the price of Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring as an eight out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"Splunk has been fairly expensive, but it has been predictable."

Valuable Features

"It is a great resource for us because we have so many different data sources and to be able to aggregate that and put it through a concise dashboard or an alert really helps."
"The most valuable feature is log reporting."
"The most valuable thing that we have seen within our group is the ability to ingest all this raw data and have it organized in a certain way so that different groups can get effective alerting from this massive amount of raw data that is out there."

Room For Improvement

"We have both on-prem and cloud, and the challenge is getting all our log data aggregated or streams aggregated so that it is real-time. We do a pretty good job of that, but our organization is not using it as a security platform when it can do a great job of that."
"The price has room for improvement."
