User Testimonials
	Egnyte	Splunk Enterprise Security
Likelihood to Recommend	If you're simply sharing and syncing across devices and don't care about granular security permissions, this is an easy win. If you're needing more control over the ability to restrict users from deleting folders, sharing folders, and allowing only certain groups to be able to view a folder, this can work but will ultimately give you arthritis as you'll end up having to perform a multitude of clicks for a task that should be able to be done in a fraction of the action. Have a folder template that allows for the first two levels of folders to be view only and the third level allowing file/folder creation and deletion? Have fun setting each of the third level folder's permissions-- they should give out free wrist braces. When discussed with their engineers about this function, a suggested $28,000 custom script was suggested. I don't believe them when they say that they haven't heard of other customers wishing to assign rights to multiple folders-- Something any sort of real admin would require. It simply isn't important to them, which is fine. The current ability Mykii Liu IT Support Engineer Read full review	Well suited: Splunk ES is highly recommended in an environment with many data sources and experienced computer engineers. It has a steep learning curve, but once that hurdle is crossed, it is absolutely a beast. It is also very expensive, so a company putting a high amount of budget in Security is needed. Not well suited: Splunk ES is not recommended if a company has only a few sources and some non-technical IT users. The price won't justify the fewer data sources and scratching just the surface level. Moreover, non-technical IT users would be better off with something that has a query builder, unlike Splunk.

Pros	Drive map tool on Windows and flexibility on client configuration, can change drive letters fairly easily if needed. New user setup is straightforward and permissions not too difficult to set up and assign. Support has been fairly responsive and helpful with issues as they have come up. Incentivized Ian Hansen Client Success Manager Read full review	Its best feature is its user interface, which is easy to navigate and understand. All you need is a little tutorial on how to use the Splunk query language and you're done. Logs can be easily uploaded or shared across multiple platforms and display a highly insightful graphical representations of data using graphs, tables, and many other formats.

Cons	We often have issues with WebEdit, changes not saving/overwriting No functionality to drag and drop files/folders within the UI, can only move things by going through Move > Select location When previewing Word files in the browser, tracked changes are not shown so there can be misunderstandings when quickly reviewing documents Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	ES on the cloud (SaaS) has too many limitations with platform administration. Supported integrations are not always on par with enterprise support especially when dependent on 3rd-party proprietary APIs. In later versions, unforeseen glitches seem to show up that have no resolution except version upgrade. This used to not be the case in prior versions which were very stable. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	We found that usage of Egnyte in our supported clients, with sufficient bandwidth, provided all the features and stability we required. The billing setup was fair and the support provided was ample for end users and well as our in house admins. There was a concern about high usage clients but this was taken into account during the vetting process. Incentivized Evan Wilson I.T. Service Specialist Read full review	We are very happy with Splunk and would advise anyone to take a serious look at it. It might look pricey but the rewards Splunk offers seem endless. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Really easy to use the interface. The web browser is very intuitive and I have not had any notable issues with this. It's easy to work on documents as a team, and the only issues we have to tend to come with Apple apps and downloading large files to WebEdit. It's very similar to the filing systems that come on Apple and Windows devices so not a steep learning curve. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Maintaining hundreds or even 1000+ SOC use cases is really difficult, considering that the Data sources may not always send the data. A module that detects data freshness issues and detect data format changes would be a great help. the main challenge today using Splunk Enterprise Security is making sure that the detection rules are still working properly given all the changes that occur in data source applications. Also, maintaining the data collects on tens of thousands of servers and more than 100k workstations is a real company IT challenge: the splunkbase forwarder may not support old OS anymore, while these are the most important to monitor. Moving to the Open Telemetry collector has become essential so that only 1 agent is required for both SIEM and application observability. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Reliability and Availability	No answers on this topic	I don't think I've ever seen Splunk ES go fully offline or have any downtime greater than a few minutes on rare occasions. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Performance	Egnyte works very well across all platforms and as an add-on to other programs. Load time is close to nothing. Reports can be made in no time as well. All in all no performance issues. We can see that it depends on the local network connection. If you're running with fiber there won't be any issues. Incentivized Christopher Fritz Senior IT Supporter Read full review	It takes a long time for items to load if you are just generally searching through logs. It is best to use the data models which load faster but can be strange in terms of what is coming from which logs where. Yes, you can look it up, but this also requires familiarity with where things are and how to look them up. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	I never had to reach out to customer support for Egnyte. I don't know any coworkers who have had to reach out to Egnyte for support either. As far as I am concerned, the support team is doing a good job since I have not had to reach out to them. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	It's good when it's responsive, but I've had times where I had to wait quite a while for a response. But these are typically the exceptions rather than the rule. When you do get a response it is always well-informed and appropriate. I would say they've been trending better over time with this. Incentivized AE Allan Crittenden Edwards Security Analyst Read full review
In-Person Training	No answers on this topic	I experienced only on-line training, but the trainers were very professional and competent. Maybe it could be more useful if they also have an experience in projects because sometimes they didn't have a real project experience to communicate to the students. Anyway, it was very interesting and I learned many thing that's very difficoult (or maybe impossible!) to have by myself, aven if I have more than 10 years of Splunk activity experience. Incentivized Giuseppe Cusello GRC Director Read full review
Online Training	No answers on this topic	It was very interesting and I learned many thing that's very difficoult (or maybe impossible!) to have by myself. The only problem was that, when I worked with the Splunk Professional Services, I found some difference between the training contents and the information from PS. In addition is required a long experience on Splunk Enterprise for the data ingestion part, in other words I'm able to work with ES because I'm worling on Splunk since 11 years, otherwise I'd some problem.

Alternatives Considered	Egnyte syncs with Windows machines better than any competitor I have come across. The service focuses on just this platform and their in depth focus shows in the end result. Google is not really made with Windows in mind. Box is cumbersome and the web portal is not easy to use. SharePoint sync to PC is terrible. WP William Press Cloud Project Manager Read full review	Before Splunk, we ran Elastic Security for our log aggregation and alerting platform. Unfortunately, the solution was not a good fit for many logs and mixed on-prem/cloud infrastructure, as our. For cost or small infrastructure, Elastic is a very good, strong, and credible choice. But if you need a performant SIEM, enjoy Splunk. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Scalability	No answers on this topic	We have on prem splunk and it’s mostly east to setup, but we have issues keeping data separated between customer splunk deployments while at the same time only having to look at one SIEM to address events in every environment Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	The promising advantage of Egnyte is that user can access their files from the cloud anywhere without any cumbrance like connecting to VPN or other third-party soft wares. No risk of data loss. The platform is lacking in changing the parent administrator of a folder as if one person is the administrator of the file or folder and when needs to change it becomes clunky and does not supports it properly. Incentivized Brandon Smith Business Consultant Read full review	Swift Incident Response: ES's real-time monitoring and correlation capabilities have notably reduced our mean time to detect (MTTD) and respond (MTTR) to security incidents. Cost Efficiency: ES streamlined operations, lowering operational costs through task automation and effective resource allocation. Compliance Simplification: ES's robust reporting and compliance features have eased audits, reducing related costs and efforts. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
