What do you like best about the product?
I like the posibility to ingest a large number of logs/data format and to play with it. In a very short time, beginners are able to have a clear view of things that were hidden in the mount of data to be processed.
What do you dislike about the product?
I miss the possibility :
1. to add pdf export to custom visualisation,
2. to configure drilldown fields in custom visualisation
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it for log analysis, both for IT and non-IT systems. Everywhere you can find logs, in fact.

What do you like best about the product?
easy to setup and use. It's an excellent tool to analyze real-time data & logs

With its long features using it can get really complex using it. you will have to read through many documentation to find the answers you're looking for and sometimes you don't find it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Splunk to setup alerts and monitors for our production system which help in reducing the turn around time for troubleshooting any issue.

Very good for basic data querying, but not so easy for complex querying

  • December 29, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Splunk very nicely provides query/search access to huge volumes of data (for example log-file data). If you're interested in finding specific occurrences of something/anything within your data, Splunk is a nice tool to have. For basic querying, it cannot be beat.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you need to find an "area" within your huge volume of data (for example, either what happened immediately before or after a specific occurrence) then you end up fighting with Splunk to let you see that "area". Personally, I've ended up having to write extremely complex regular expressions within Splunk just to be able to see these "areas", and they work, but it needs to be easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Splunk to diagnose problems within a web-application by querying the application log file data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For simple querying it's very easy to pickup and use, but for complex querying, you'll need a strong background in regular expressions.

What do you like best about the product?
Offers great predefined applications and visualised dashboards to dispaly and make sense of the logs. These make it very easy to see the wood for the trees.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the best applications and dashboards can bee quite expensive although there are kes comprehensive free versions available
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralised logging for complaince through distributed nodes.
Also ulilising the logging for internal preformance monitoring on our own applications

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to setup, upgrade, manage, and configure to meet your needs. The universal forwarder makes this easier than any other solution out there.
What do you dislike about the product?
Price can be of a concern. If you have a large influx of traffic being logged, you could easily go over your license limit and have a violation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Better detection of errors in application logs

The visualization graph features as well as the alert and notifications

Need to learn the syntax for log search. Should have made it a little easier for new users.

We have some notification report emails generated out of so to notify is of any serious error in loga. We are also using it to generate server usage graphs like CPU utilization and memory pages etc.

Splunk review

  • December 20, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Helps finding the events quick from server logs. This avoids us from logging into multiple servers separately.
What do you dislike about the product?
Except being proprietory the product is good.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Consolidating the logs from multiple servers
Recommendations to others considering the product:
May be think of providing license at free of cost and charge for support. Since industry prefers to go for more open source products to reduce cost. You guys might have analyzed all these, just a thought from side.
