Overall Satisfaction with Splunk Enterprise
Primarily used for logging and track application error events.
Splunk is super good in terms of search and how fast results are populated with easy to use queries. There's a great deal of community support to find whatever required setup the org needs to achieve results.

Splunk does a good job at log aggregation and compatibility however, integrations with other products is been a challenge. Especially the pricing can be more competitive to spice up the market and orgs looking to explore AI based logging over traditional practices.
