Overall Satisfaction with Splunk Cloud

Log aggregation, enterprise security - alerts and detections off of log events for corporate infrastructure. Correlation searches off of specific events, application troubleshooting, and any other details that you can find in our log sources.

Using Splunk Cloud simplifies the solution as we do not have to maintain and manage infrastructure.
  • Log ingest / parsing
  • role based access to specific logs
  • log event searching
  • alerts and dashboards
  • Filter of incoming logs from cloud sources - needs drastically improved UI
  • Mission Control - nice concept, not there in implementation
  • It saves user hours on ingesting new feeds, parsing, and searcing
  • Cost is high as you pull in more log sources
Splunk currently has the most integrations with log sources and tools. Easiest platform to fully onboard new sources, parse and search.
