Big Data! No Worries!! Splunk is Here...

  • March 09, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Splunk provides a great ease in reading the logs. Splunk is a very powerful Data Analytics platform
What do you dislike about the product?
Most of the time we never directly upgrade new version of splunk as there is possibility of bugs.
We always need to wait a bit for latest release to be adopted at Enterprise level because of the unforeseen bugs. Good thing is one of Splunk Support, Splunk Answers Community and Slack might be able to assist with workaround or solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently we are using Splunk for Payments monitoring.We can monitor in real time

Robust Search and Correlation Capabilities

  • February 01, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Splunk is the ease of setting up forwards and ingesting multiple sources of data from structured to unstructured. Splunk does a great job of correlating events and search capabilities are robust as long as you know the search commands. The ability to setup alerts is helpful and the out of the box filtering capabilities are useful for new analysts.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about Splunk is the slight learning curve at the beginning. Once you get the hang of how to do searches, searching becomes second hand. The product is also pricey, but you do get your month's worth so there is value in this product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business problems we are trying to solve with Splunk Enterprise are event correlation and incident management. Splunk gives us the ability to search across multiple data sources from one easy to use interface. The benefit of this is that we no longer have to log in to multiple data sources to query relevant date relating to an incident. The robust search capabilities are the biggest benefit we have realized.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For consistency, it would be helpful to deploy the forwarders via group policy or your software deployment tools. Splunk can also pull logs from systems as well. Make sure that you have enough space depending on how much data you wish to cache.
