Overall Satisfaction with Splunk Cloud

Splunk Cloud is being used by our own department. We use it mainly to aggregate logs and metrics. We also create different dashboards to display our service running status.

Since we have multiple environments, it's very convenient to stream all logs/metrics into Splunk Cloud, and see them from one centralized place.

Pros

  • Display log events in a very nice way for humans to read
  • Very easy and powerful to create dashboards
  • Very fast and reliable

Cons

  • Since it's a managed cloud service, it doesn't offer the capability to edit the config files directly. So if the web UI doesn't support something, we can't change it.
  • Aggregate logs from different environments
  • Dashboards
  • Alerting
  • Reliable app monitoring platform for our digital services
  • Ensuring our data is secure by integration with corporate SSO
  • Quickly identify the root cause

Do you think Splunk Cloud delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Splunk Cloud's feature set?

Yes

Did Splunk Cloud live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Splunk Cloud go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Splunk Cloud again?

Yes

Splunk Cloud is good for application monitoring/alerting, data analysis and root cause analysis. For organizations that would like use Splunk but do not want to hire someone to operate or maintain it, this is the best solution.

From a cost perspective, it's not the cheapest one in the market.
