Great, but not amazing

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to build dashboards so we can test new notable alerts. The ability to set severity levels. We like the correlation events. Ability to ingest multiple indexes and create correlated searches, as opposed to just using a wildcard search. The dashboard layout is usefull and is very customizable. Integration via ES and other plugins allows us to spend time on one single pane of glass, do a pivot investigation and drill way down into the logs that were ingested. Metadata is easy to find, the logs are parsed neatly and are relatively easy to read once you get used to them. Training is also very good, and readily available online. Certification paths are also available
What do you dislike about the product?
The load on our search heads, some queries take forever. Sometimes we have great difficulty with getting other products to parse logs correctly into splunk. API issues occasionally. The lag in the UI when running a search. The community could use better visibility, a central repository for splunk queries would be nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting better visualization of threats in our environment via notable alerts. We are building out new automations and use cases for splunk on a weekly basis. Splunk is a primary intake for our analysts and we develop new notable alerts and use cases for our dashboards as well as continually tune and improve the information splunk is telling us.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Amazingly broad tool with some complex management issues

  • January 04, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The tooling included in base Splunk, plus the broad community supplying pre-built extensions to common data needs, greatly reduce time to detection on problems and make tracing root cause issues much easier than any other tool I've used.
What do you dislike about the product?
Management of the software can be complex, as it is a complex tool. Buying professional services for initial configuration and any major changes (e.g. moving to a clustered environment) is frankly necessary unless you have someone on staff who has already managed a deployment previously.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dramatic speedups of incident response, both security and business related. Replaced several other toolings, and automated a number of processes that had previously required dozens of full-time staff.
