User Testimonials
	Memfault	Splunk Observability Cloud
Likelihood to Recommend	If you're running a fleet of embedded devices that has a tight RAM, CPU, & power footprint, Memfault is a must-have. From managing firmware deployments to monitoring every facet of the device lifecycle and performance, this is a solution that is built with a founding team that are the absolute best in the industry. They know your chipset and OS extraordinarily well and in some cases have been able to work directly with the chip vendors to provide support for their SDKs. With Memfault's help, our chip vendor diagnosed an issue in their BLE SDK and dramatically decreased the number of crash events on our devices. Incentivized Mike Ressler Chief Technology Officer Read full review	Good for below cases 1. There is a front end and need to correlate data with front end data 2. multiple microservices and need to check the health of each system 3. correlate data from various sources 4. Application performance is a key to be captured 5. application performance is a key metric. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	The first one is its Kubernetes container monitoring. I really like this features because as we know how much K8s is vast and to manually monitor each part of the Kubernetes it takes so much time but Splunk Observability Cloud makes it easier. And even once we integrate K8s with Splunk Observability Cloud it gives us some prebuilt dashboards which gives holistic view of our Cluster and its nodes, pods, etc. The dashbaord feature of Splunk Observability Cloud, it gives us full flexibility to customize our dashboard with a wide range of predefined chart types. Now it also supports OTEL, which is a plus point for observability. As now everyone is moving towards Otel and in current market there are only few tools who supports OTEL based integrations, Splunk Observability Cloud is one out of them.

Cons	No answers on this topic	An indicator for errors on the navigations pane so that we don't have to go through each tab. As we go more and more cloud maybe you guys can implement a pay-as-you-use strategy so that small companies using it not frequently can also afford it. That's it can't think of any and it wont let me skip to next question. Thanks Incentivized CM chirag mhatre Software Engineer Read full review
