Splunk is software for searching, monitoring, and analyzing machine-generated big data, via a web-style interface. It captures, indexes and correlates real-time data in a searchable repository from which it can generate graphs, reports, alerts, dashboards and visualizations.
When comparing to Cisco Duo, I felt like the product offered more than just MFA on RDP.
When comparing to Silverfort, it came down to pricing. Silverfort was double the cost and I didn't like how Silverfort had separate SKUs. If you wanted MFA on everything the cost …

Splunk Enterprise is a very seasoned software , while other comparable software keep on adding new features and keep evolving, Splunk Enterprise has reached a state where new user onboarded doesnt have to request any basic feature or develop modules to simple tasks. Log parsing …
Splunk does a good job at log aggregation and compatibility however, integrations with other products is been a challenge. Especially the pricing can be more competitive to spice up the market and orgs looking to explore AI based logging over traditional practices.
Able to show more than Log data in Splunk views, we tested several plug-ins during a small pilot, and we were able to bring O/S (Win/Unix/Linux) & APM data metrics into the same views as Logged data. I've seen others use it to visualize a wider range of data types, too...better …

Splunk Enterprise was already chosen by our organization to be used across teams. However, the reasoning I know behind is the ability to share events/messages across different message brokers and making onboarding easier to legacy teams by just simple configuration.
Splunk was better in terms of analyzing unstructured data. Also Splunk has had a very good and strong community and is also has a more tried and tested performance. I personally found the dash boarding capability of Splunk better than datadog.
Omnibus was a Linux based tool. Not very easy to sue. End user needs to know Linux commands. Splunk Enterprise is more flexible and ease to use. Splunk Enterprise can generate reports, graphs, data visualization, data validation and much more. Use friendly query language and …
A lot of products have natively inside their own dashboards and or their own logging repositories. And each one is difficult to learn or they're too complex or they're not verbose in the sense that they're not easy to mine the data that you're looking for. So that could be …
Elastic and it's a little bit more cumbersome and a little bit more time consuming. Using Splunk is much easier flow and quicker to utilize to get to the root of a problem.
Cost was major factor which made us choose Splunk Enterprisek. Splunk Enterprise is versatile tool which further helped us to make our decision. Apart from that Managment wish to use something robust hence Splunk Enterprise became there first choice.
Splunk Enterprise is honestly the first tool we used and we cant realistically switch. We have not done any in depth studies or comparisons. We know there are alternatives and we would probably switch if one of them was much more economically viable, but right now we are happy …
Identity Protection is well suited for organizations that need to be monitor AD/Entra for suspicious activity. During a Penetration Test our MDR didn't alert on some odd protocol implementations, but ITDR did. It is also simple to setup for MFA on RDP as well. There are other solutions for it, but found I got more out of ITDR than I did from Duo. ITDR is less suited for smaller organizations since it has a 250-seat minimum. They should lower it to at least 100.
I'm liking the newer products, and I'm looking forward to how they integrate with the overall product when they come together. Just log in and be able to query a large number of systems for similar issues or a unique one. That is a great fit for Splunk Enterprise, looking for a simple case or a simple String or something of that nature across multiple machines. It's a great fit for that to identify issues or particular software, whatever your scenario is, String, to find it across any particular server or group of servers, so that you can update or do a deployment or whatever it is you're looking to do.
We are using Splunk extensively in our projects and we have recently upgraded to Splunk version 6.0 which is quite efficient and giving expected results. We keep track of updates and new features Splunk introduces periodically and try to introduce those features in our day to day activities for improvement in our reporting system and other tasks.
While the product is solid, I do find there are an excessive number of sections you can navigate to. It takes some time getting used to, but it is a very powerful product. It's not something you'll master right off the bat.
Splunk usability could be a little more friendly on correlations and log analysis. not for end users, but for the tech team, sometimes is hard to find good professionals to set up integrations and new dashboards when needed. For the high-level management, it can be overwhelming to read Splunk dashboards.
Splunk maintains a well resourced support system that has been consistent since we purchased the product. They help out in a timely manner and provide expert level information as needed. We typically open cases online and communicate when possible via e-mail and are able to resolve most issues with that method.
The online course was simple clear and described the main capabilities of the solution. There is also an initial module that can be done for free so anyone can familiarize themselves with the functionality of this solution. On the other hand, however, there could be more free online courses. Maybe even with a certificate, this would broaden the group of people who are familiar with the platform while increasing familiarity with the solution itself.
When comparing to Cisco Duo, I felt like the product offered more than just MFA on RDP. When comparing to Silverfort, it came down to pricing. Silverfort was double the cost and I didn't like how Silverfort had separate SKUs. If you wanted MFA on everything the cost increased dramatically.
A lot of products have natively inside their own dashboards and or their own logging repositories. And each one is difficult to learn or they're too complex or they're not verbose in the sense that they're not easy to mine the data that you're looking for. So that could be anything from the native logging that you find in other Cisco products. It's easier to use Splunk to draw the data that you're looking for as opposed to going to the individual's products themselves to get the logs that you're looking for.
Being able to see right away during a Penetration Test that the product detected anomalies, but our MDR service didn't. It allowed us to go back to the MDR service to show them the results and fix the issue from slipping through the cracks.
By satisfying the requirements from our insurance provider, our premiums didn't go up (MFA on RDP).
Generation of metrics against compromised accounts based on location and time of the year. It helped in launching phishing education campaign before hitting the most vulnerable month of the year.
It helped in neutralizing vulnerable word-press sites across the campus, leading to the decrease of account compromise.
