  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We use Splunk to screen our framework including DHCP, DNS and organization-wide occasions. Quite possibly the main thing for us on schedule to utilize this instrument is the opportunity to screen the whole framework searching for logs and occasions in the applications or the infra. Additionally, In Splunk, we make our say to day occasions reports and pre-characterized order to synopsis and examination information. An incredible component is that you can make a config on Splunk notice rule to send quickly aware of all the group when a basic occasion shows up.

The logs are really insightful to unearth problems in the code.

  • May 08, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The logs can be categorised based on the attributes for fine-tuning the issue encountered. The logs can also be filtered based on the timeframe, not only within the same day but across a wide variety of dates within 30 days.
What do you dislike about the product?
As it loads data from the logs in real-time, the application becomes really slow. As the data is being linked directly fro the database and the local caching is not possible for this enormous amount of data, the user sometimes gets very confused whether the data is being fetched or the API failed, if a timely intimation or loader is placed in the front then it would have been really insightful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Any issues reported from the UI team, we resort to the logs via Splunk as the single source of truth. Whenever any bugs are reported, before diving into the code, which is written by someone may years back, it is really easy, helpful and quick to check the logs for diving in the issue and most of the time, a pattern is identified and it helps in finding the root cause from the code very easily and as a result, the resolution also comes out to be very fool-proof and sturdy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is very useful and user friendly for debugging issues through the logs. I will recommend this to adopt for enterprises who want to make their developers' life easy and any non-coding person can also dive in and find the primary root cause before going for a fix.

Application performance monitoring and troubleshooting solution

  • April 17, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is designed for cloud-native enterprise. It enhances performance by viewing everything in the application and act on artificial intelligence-driven analytics. It collects traces and monitors apps. It gathers and analyses spans and provides fidelity. It allows you to analyze app performance along every dimension. It assists you to solve modern problems as it determines an issue before it transforms into a consumer problem. It minimizes MTTR with artificial intelligence-driven directed troubleshooting to speedily understand the root-cause error mapping and service dependencies.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be complex when it is integrated with other tools. So, it is not best suited for large systems. It takes too much time to show the homepage and load significant features. I think there are some bugs that slow down the loading of features. Also, it is pretty expensive. The time and date editing range are somehow troublesome. The user interface is not much customizable as it is very tough to customize the design component.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One major benefit is that it quickly understands how the app behaves for various versions, users, hosts, and regions. It can ingest and store low latency data on a large scale. It gathers data from a broad range of cloud integrations and client libraries by utilizing open source-based manual or auto instrumentation. It allows you to get answers without managing infrastructure. The report and alert functionality are great. It offers several good features such as easy dashboard creation and log filtering.

Enterprise-level SIEM and logging visualization tool. Worth it.

  • December 24, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We use this across our different departments for security, host monitoring, data intelligence, vulnerability and threat actor collections, correlation, alerting and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest complaint I hear is 2-fold: It's expensive and it's hard to learn. Both of these are true, but opposed to some competitors, this is just more baked and better. The cost can be justified and it's a leader in various vendor rubrics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our big thing is pulling in multiple data from various cloud and in-house data sources. Once you have the mapping correctly (CIM in Splunk speak) this is really great for correlating information and such.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do a full POC before you buy. Make sure you test out custom log sources from in-house, not just COTS apps. It helps a lot with evaluating the product. Also, get a good estimate for data retention and necessary storage space you'll need for the archived data. Way easier to figure that out first, than trying to add on more later. Also, take the training. That helps as well.
