Splunk Enterprise: Product Review

  • December 07, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Splunk is a fantastic tool that we depend on. It isn't just development work we rely on Splunk for, but we also use it for testing engineering changes as a standard before production releases. From ease-of-use, forwarding data from a variety of data sources, and E2E data correlation, Splunk has been able to package software that does it all!
What do you dislike about the product?
Recent versions of Splunk can be a bit chatty in terms of messages that are displayed in Splunk Web. I'm finding a lot of questions coming from the business teams like, "I'm seeing this error - what does this mean?", or "This error message came up when I ran this search in the dashboard, can you please have a look?". Most often messages that display are not directly correlated to what the Splunk users are performing. I may have missed it, but it would be great to pass something off to the business teams that they could reference if a particular set of error messages occur. Any infrastructure-related messages would ultimately be handled by the core Splunk team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most rewarding and challenging problems I've solved with Splunk are E2E monitoring solutions for our core customer transactions. Never in the history of the company has this been implemented. For the first time, we were able to correlate data across multiple systems, and ensure (at least a ) 99.5% success rate. This is higher today,

How can you not have Splunk!

  • November 28, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Splunk allows access to all the operational data. It lets you correlate events and set up alerts to help with future issues. It allows for metric tracking and analysis and provides easy to use dashboards.
What do you dislike about the product?
Dashboard design is restrictive. The layout is pretty fixed unless you have admin rights to create style sheets. The UI only lets you do half of the options, you must go into the simple xml for full range of options. Creating drill-ins is not intuitive. Limited out-of-the-box charting options for time series.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Operational Monitoring

Splunk Enterprise For the Win

  • November 28, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Splunk is so easy to use that you will find yourself using it as the first step in every project or problem solving venture. The speed in which answers are realized is amazing and invaluable to fast paced teams or companies.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is never enough time to implement all of the ideas we have for using Splunk! (this is an 'us' problem, not a Splunk problem)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Splunk to identify , predict, and resolve issues across multiple products. We are also using Splunk to track items across multiple products, databases, external sites, and files in a easy to understand format for every level of user.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the leap! At least download the free version and get an idea of just how much Splunk can help you.

The jack of all trades...if you want it to be

  • November 28, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As I said in my title "The jack of all trades...if you want it to be" Splunk is so powerful that sometimes it's hard to know where to start! Start small and don't overwhelm yourself, you'll quickly come to appreciate Splunk and all it can do.
What do you dislike about the product?
Many small and annoying bugs. I can work around all of them, but sometimes I burn an entire day figuring out how.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data insight.
