Easy to read dashboard
What do you like best about the product?
My team mostly uses it to track lockouts for users. However we also use it for VPN connection metrics, tracking active directory user accounts, and various other types of reports.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does have a bit of a learning curve to it at first, such as accidentally connecting to the wrong dashboard can leave you feeling a little lost until you find you way back to the correct app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team is initial helpdesk support, so we use it to find out what servers a users Active Directory account is locked out of, track the server, or track the MAC Address of a device that has locked them out of a radius server/wireless connection. It was a little inaccurate at first, but we have upgraded recently and now can fully track the mac addresses to reassure the user that yes, their phone is connecting to the wireless, and yes they need to fix that on their end.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just having the correct subscription would be extremely helpful to your company, otherwise there can be too many logins causing issues with the license. Other than that, it has great dashboards for network admins, and creating a smooth transition for troubleshooting at a beginner level.

Splunk is Made for Ops!
What do you like best about the product?
It's scalable. We started with a small standalone installation with a very small data set. Over time, we grew our Splunk environment to a clustered multi-site installation that is used by multiple departments.
What do you dislike about the product?
As your installation matures, understanding the intricacies of how Splunk *works* will require full-time attention (and manpower). Folder structure, permissions, and app installations, as well as keeping up with the dizzying release schedule will require some time devoted to Splunk.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Splunk for operations reporting, monitoring, and analytics.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Plan out your deployment fully before you start. It's somewhat easy to scale, but it's easier to get it right the first time.
