What do you like best about the product?

It is easier to write SPL queries than SQL, and you can create your own custom Splunk commands where you can write your own Python scripts to handle complex data types like JSON, which has a nested level of 3 or 4. It is easy to create visualizations and get insights out of the data through commands like charts, stats, etc. It has a vast level of customer support, and when the developer or the user gets stuck, it has great documentation to resolve the issue.

What do you dislike about the product?

The resources splunk software takes when it handles a complex query makes you crazy and it has everything a developer needs, but when it comes to the licensing, it is a bit costly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

The business problem that Splunk solved was creating a custom visualization using Java scripts for rendering a train track, like the current movement of the train on the map or track layout, and also the custom filters that are created with the help of Javascript. I think this is the best thing where I got the most out of Splunk Enterprise here.
