Splunk is revolutionary tool for tracking logs, showing summary in Dashboard. Splunk quick and easy

  • August 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's way for searching the logs based on the multiple parameters and showing items in the left hand side, which enables us to add in the search query by just one click.
What do you dislike about the product?
Writing queries is bit complex. If a UI can be provided for that, it would be great and then additional feature or clauses can be added in the search index.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were not able to see the logs for a particular times, it was very hard to track the problems but when we used it. It changed our life by providing so simple way to search the logs. It searches the logs too quickly. Even Million lines of the logs can be taken in few seconds.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its very good tool for analyzing the server logs. It's alerting process is super cool. It keeps tracking of all the logs and it it will see a particular error in the logs, it will send you and mail/message. It's very fast in searching the logs for a longer window.

Business Intelligence and Analytics

  • July 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Splunk is very simple to understand. Splunk provides functionalities like Data collection, normalization, visualization and alerting. I like all the functionalities because all are very simple to understand and are tightly bound with the Splunk Enterprise. I also liked the feature of adaptive response with Splunk ES. I also loved the data model functionality to provide a hierarchical data structure and retrieve the data faster.
What do you dislike about the product?
The data cleaning process in Splunk has very limited scope. You have to remove the whole data from Splunk. It will not provide you the control to remove data for a particular source type. I also disliked some of the charts which are not interactive and it has some limitation to plot ticks on the chart. Pricing is also very high compared to others.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Splunk to create so many integrations with a third-party vendor to provide them insights. We are also using all the functionalities to make the Addon better and also tuning the performance of dashboards and field extraction. We are also using Splunk Adaptive response to provide a quick action to be taken on some events.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Splunk is very user-friendly and UI is also good to understand any new user. If money is not a constraint then go ahead with the Splunk instead of others. Default Splunk charts are good and easy to understand. It will be easy for user to create any new chart using it.

Very powerful, quick, customizable log analysis tool

  • April 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Splunk has been paramount in us gaining information from our log data, it has the ability to very quickly parse and understand the data. Once you parse the log data creating visualizations is easy and they can be grouped into dashboards which is quite convenient.
For us this brings the following business benefits:
- We can quickly and easily see/get alerted of any issues in our running system
- Stakeholders can see the performance and usage of a given system.
- Developers can monitor a system and gain insights which drive optimization.
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning the Splunk query language takes some time. It is powerful and relatively intuitive but there is definitely a learning curve there. In the past, there were a few cases where we had issues with duplicated log data, figuring out why and removing it was quite the effort.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Splunk have let us answer the following questions:
- How many users are using our system and how active are they?
- Is our live system running into any unexpected issues?
- How performant is our live system, how does that change under load
- What are some problematic/slow calls to our system?
- How can we give stakeholders insight into the platform with minimal friction?
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely build dashboards to share with business stakeholders. Try to put a lot of information in your logs and the more easily parseable it is the better. The query language has a learning curve, so having a couple specialists is very helpful.
