Minpunten:
- The only think i liked least about splunk is the cost involved/pricing model in case of high data volumes.

Big data is no problem for Splunk Enterprise
Opmerkingen: Splunk is a powerful and useful monitoring tool. Splunk's efficiency is enhanced by the ability to integrate third-party apps developed in-house. It's also interesting that we can incorporate a customs alert and dashboard. In most situations, it resolves the need to normalize data, allowing for the use of any and all data in business forecasting. It is analyzed for data that can be utilized to optimize spending plans and asset tracking.
Pluspunten:
Without worrying too much about data type or normalization, Splunk Enterprise can efficiently manage massive amounts of data from numerous sources. Data may be accessed in a flash, and there are a number of options for tailoring and integrating data analysis workflows to create bespoke dashboards or utilizing apps from our other product partners.
Minpunten:
There isn't much I dislike about splunk, however if we have to be picky, it would be that it's more difficult to maintain as an administrator when splunk is installed on outdated architecture.

The only tool you need to manage production data
Opmerkingen: I'm very pleased with the data management capabilities Splunk Enterprise has given us. Before we implemented it, we were really struggling to make sense of some of the big data we get from our machines, but now, we can get very detailed insights into hw the machines are performing at any time. It's helped us monitor performance, issues, and opportunities much easier.
Pluspunten:
I love how detailed you can have the dasboards and charts go. It supports tons of chart types, and custom reporting elements. But above all, with the automaetd monitoring, you can have access to continuous insights from large data you wouldn't have been able to make sense of otherwise.
Minpunten:
It's quite difficult to set up in the beginning. It took us a lot longer than expected to map our production data onto the system. But once you have it up and running, it works like clockwork
Spunk Review
Pluspunten:
It allows me to bring a lot of information into one friendly view. It's a great security audit tool.
Minpunten:

The most expensive tool, requiring highly-skilled employees, capable of limitless value
Opmerkingen: Splunk's SPL is a flexible, straight forward query-language with aspects of SQL, R, Python, and Bash. The fact that an analyst can learn to be an engineer through using the platform provides ease of growth. It is unmatched in its automation to make data actionable, while providing reporting and visualization capabilities.
Pluspunten:
Splunk is provides a single tool for log aggregation, log analysis, and visualizations. Threat hunting, applying threat intelligence, and incident response are easily repeatable; pushing organizations to proactive security processes.
Minpunten:
Splunk is expensive, especially when an organizations is exploring and building new security or data use cases. It also requires a lot of engineering maintenance, making the quality of the data highly-dependent on the skill(s) of those supporting it. Many organizations do not maximize its benefit because it is poorly managed or supported by low-skilled employees.

A better business companion when integrated with RPA
Opmerkingen: Overall, the experience was positive; even with a free trial license, it was much easier, and on the course and certification side, Splunk has a very good collection of videos and materials that help even a novice quickly setup the integration and indexing.
Pluspunten:
The most useful thing about Splunk is the ease of integration with application. With uipath on-premises it was very much helpful as the business users can monitor the actions of robots through spluink without entering into uipath orchestrator
Minpunten:
Expression creation for indexing was bit hard as it is not user-friendly to business users if they wanted to create any new fields, also the forwarder was not able to directly connect with uipath cloud so that the logs has to be shifted to intermediate file before uploading into splunk, but that seems not an issue with splunk but more related to uipath cloud
really true nice monitoring tool if its nice implemented
Opmerkingen: For me it is a very good experience. It is necessary to develop a good implementation of IT INC Management
Pluspunten:
It helped me enormously in my job as IT INC Management including detailed reports and alerting any necessary information.
Minpunten:
It has a somewhat complex paring curve and there are no simple tutorials or parallel design of tutorials for new managers
Splunk for Enterprise
Opmerkingen: A very helpful product that can improve your way to do business intelligence and forecasting.
Pluspunten:
Data visualization is very clear and easy to use.
Minpunten:
The possible to share with many people data and dashboards.
Flexible reporting and dashboard constructing using Splunk
Opmerkingen: Overall Splunk is a good reporting tool you can use to show your data for decision-makers to determine the business performance. Easy to integrate with data sources and providers. Requires a little knowledge of how to construct queries. But plenty of developer documentation is available.
Pluspunten:
Splunk offers a lot of ways to connect with multiple data providers and sources to populate the reports and dashboards you need to show your business performance or data.
Minpunten:
Customer support was a little slow. Requires a little knowledge of how to construct queries.
A powerful log aggregation solution with immensely useful tools built-in for popular applications.
Pluspunten:
- Free to use for small 500MB or less daily ingress, quite nice for small use cases and learning - No development work required to deploy and provide value. - Deployment flexibility: client agents are available to use, or clientless configurations for multiple OS platforms. It's also very easy to deploy, not just flexible. its a very simple affair. - Segmentation of logs: You can create separate instances of of logs to aggregate, based on organization needs. And those instances can have their own individual storage policies to optimize consumption of storage resources. - Configuration design: Thoughtful and mature documentation and design of the application regarding enterprise-class scaling on network storage. -POWERFUL tools: The user interface lends itself to learning more about your organization from the logs you collect, through metrics of trends of the logs being gathered. There are also specific modules/add-ons for popular applications to provide more value and event-based monitoring, all without having to develop in-house dashboards and intelligence of those logs. - Customization: You can create your own queries of logs, and event-based alerts. - Web-based GUI that clean is powerful - Sales/Technical Reps are top notch in fielding questions and evaluating environment for deployment. They were extremely helpful in helping our organization develop procedures and scaling our environment for expansion with our existing infrastructure.
Minpunten:
- Price: This product is not free for more than the minimal use. Pricing can be very expensive, relative to open source offerings. That is the trade-off you pay for not having in-house development of open source offerings. As this product is priced based on gigabytes of indexed logs, it is important to understand the scope of licensing necessary for your environment to determine if it is a good fit for your organization. - Watch your saved queries and hardware resources: Users have the ability to create and save queries. Like in database queries, some are more efficient than others. Large inefficient queries can be very resource-intensive. If you notice slowness in day-to-day queries, or navigation in the UI, or resource use in contention, keep an eye on saved queries and user practices.

Great, wholistic centralized monitoring solution
Opmerkingen: I've been using Splunk for over 8 years. I've seen it constantly improve and change a lot. I do enjoy it. Cloud is getting better and much better parity with on-prem
Pluspunten:
We use this as our SIEM. The ability to have the data ingest, visualization, alerting and correlation all in one product is very important to me from a security standpoint. We're cloud-first so having that ability with large cloud providers is important to me (AWS, Okta, GCP, etc)
Minpunten:
The cost can be a little concerning and htere is a bit of a learning curve when you first get into Splunk. User groups, their forum and pro serv all help with that.

There are few components or observation like,1. most of the time observes the slowness in the performance.2. Sometime observe the delay in the issue or updated log reflection on the portal. 3. Need more storage to manage and maintain the lo g which impact organizational costing and budget.
A tool that every sys admin needs to have
Pluspunten:
I'm not sure from where to start in this case. We use splunk for many things but mostly to analyze the traffic on the network / firewalls. It provides us with a nice overview of what's going on. It makes it very easy to spot spikes on the network and it will provide you also with deep analyzes. For us it's an indispensable tool, probably the best tool we have.
Minpunten:
To search for something is not always easy, however there are a lot of forums online, so finding help is not that difficult.

Excellent logging and troubleshooting tool
Opmerkingen: As a software quality assurance engineer, I love that I can setup a single dashboard where I can then view the same data from any lane I select from a dropdown. If I see a problem in the Test lane, I can quickly check all of the other lanes for the same issue by simply changing the dropdown value.
Pluspunten:
Splunk can give you extreme insights into how your systems and software are functioning. Not only is the search very flexible and powerful, the customizable dashboards give a status report at a glance into trends, problems and performance. You can also set up email alerts when errors occur limiting the need to have Splunk opened on your machine all the time.
Minpunten:
Splunk has a learning curve. They have extensive documentation but it isn't intuitive and some features are buried pretty deep. We have an onsite expert who holds bimonthly meetings to answer questions in a group forum.
This is the tool every devops should have expertise on!
Opmerkingen: Made life easier for all SRE/DevOps oncall.
Pluspunten:
First of all you don't need to login to your servers. Just configure splunk forwarder on all of your server and have peace of mind. During outages you dont have to panic and just rely on Splunk and be sure that you will have your root cause visible in splunk.
Minpunten:
Kernel huge page issues, Search head clustering, Index clusetering. These features are as good as costly too. For SHC and IC it does need all same config hosts.
Splunk Enterprise Reivew
Opmerkingen: My overall experience with splunk is too good. It helps our organization to set a real time monitoring system which keeps checking our server health and alert us if anything goes wrong. So, team can quickly resolve the issue and minimize the business impact.

Minpunten:
As of now, i don't have anything which i don't like about this software.
Premium but pricey log management and analytics tool
Opmerkingen: Having a enterprise-ready centralized logging tool is critical for production success.
Pluspunten:
Splunk integrates with almost all popular enterprise software products including VMware, AWS, Azure, etc. Most customers use it primarily to do log analysis but it can also perform data analytics for business reporting. The UI is very straightforward and enables you to quickly search through large datasets using SPL. We were able to quickly locate the source of the issues by using Splunk to triangulate logs from several different components. There is a Splunk Cloud version with a free trial if you are aiming to do some integration work and testing. Finally, like all monitoring tools, Splunk offers AI and machine learning for even better predictive analytics.
Minpunten:
Splunk is expensive and probably not for smaller startup companies. The pricing is tiered and is subscription-based so if you start to ingest a lot of data, look out. It can eat into most of your IT budget and Splunk by itself doesn't handle all the Day 2 operations that are needed.
Helpful tool for troubleshooting and analyzing data/logs
Opmerkingen: The overall experience has been good. Splunk definitely helped improve our troubleshooting capabilities.
Pluspunten:
Splunk is great for monitoring, logging, and analyzing the large volume of data on the servers. Our support teams use Splunk to collect data/logs from the servers and troubleshoot product related issues. We introduced Splunk few years ago in our organization and it helped improve our defect/issue analysis and problem solving abilities
Minpunten:
While Splunk is not too complex, it also requires a certain level of skillset to decipher the information. It may take a while to figure things out if you are a new user, or someone with limited technical knowledge
