Considered Both Products	Splunk Observability Cloud Verified User Director Chose Splunk Observability Cloud We initially chose Splunk Observability Cloud because it promised full-stack visibility and tighter integration.

Verified User Professional Chose Splunk Observability Cloud To be honest, Datadog is very similar to Splunk and LogScale to a lesser degree, but it is just as good if you don't need too complex observability. Grafana is still growing and might reach the same level soon. Incentivized Helpful?

AO Anjali Oza Sr. Software Engineer Chose Splunk Observability Cloud The above applications have their own use cases.

Verified User Manager Chose Splunk Observability Cloud It has edge because of our existing logging solutions is Splunk Incentivized Helpful? Brennan Fuller Systems Engineer Chose Splunk Observability Cloud Splunk is superior in many ways to these solutions when I'm comes to ingesting, storing, manipulating, and using data, but dynatraces automatic agents do make it much easier to use out of the box. Nagios seems much cheaper but does not provide as much functionality as Splunk. … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Splunk Observability Cloud
Likelihood to Recommend	Cisco Its great if you need real-time visibility across complex or regulated environments. Also strong for hybrid or multi-cloud setups where uptime, observability and fast IR are required. It’s probably overkill for smaller teams or environments that don’t have constant changes or compliance reporting needs. It's expensive and has a steep learning curve. Also, in my opinion, do not get yourself into a consumption based model. Costs can certainly get out of control quickly. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Cisco 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	Cisco You can use table-like functionality to generate dashboards, but these queries are heavy on the system. It could be easier to give insight into what type of line parsing is used for specific documents in a company-managed environment and/or show ways to gain the insights needed. I would like to see ways to anonymize specific data for shared reports without pre-formatting this in a dashboard on which reports could be based.

Likelihood to Renew	Cisco Good: Stable system with low error rate Easy to use for simple use cases Bad: UI is not very clear for complex usage Mobile view (when logged in from phone) is bad No library for .net Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Cisco When there is an issue, it’s a win if one can easily identify the root cause. To do the same, it should allow the user to dig deep with multiple data points and compare the data and identify the anomaly. In this use case, it’s good to drive from Splunk 011y.

Support Rating	Cisco Splunk support is very quick and efficient. Pre-sale specialists are very skilled and available. Incentivized Giuseppe Cusello GRC Director Read full review
Implementation Rating	Cisco Follow a training before starting. Incentivized Giuseppe Cusello GRC Director Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Cisco Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring provides far superior options for anybody using a complex hybrid multi-cloud environment and allows both your SOC and NOC to work together on the same data while driving their own insights. We found other products are still in the old world view of servers and agents residing together within a single data centre, but modern apps are no longer like this. Incentivized David Williams CIO (Chief Information Officer) Read full review
Return on Investment	Cisco Significantly reduced the MTTR (Mean Time To Recovery), which in turn has improved the end-user experience tremendously. Meets compliance requirements of security policies, audit, regulation, and forensics. Helps us to track/manage the resource usage on our cloud instances which has a direct implication on the recurring cost. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
