Good capabilities, has a helpful interface and is straightforward to set up
We have asked for a couple of features from the company already. What typically happens is a lot of people - and developers are one of the biggest consumers of this product - go to this product to optimize their investigation process and specific configurations. That increases our data flow at times, so the cost changes. And a lot of changes happen due to that. We have asked the company to auto-revert the changes after a while so that the system works typically. We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change.

It improves our visibility and decision-making while helping us meet compliance standards
The Cloud Platform interface is cleaner than Splunk Enterprise's monitoring console. You can easily understand what's happening with your indexes. It's more refined than Splunk Enterprise's console, but they have the same feel and function. It's easy to monitor multiple cloud environments because you can create custom dashboards for any use case you may have. It offers good visibility because it integrates with the ITSI app, providing a clear overview of your environment. Integrating Splunk with other components on the cloud and network resources is effortless because it can collect data from various sources, including stored data from long-term storage. Splunk's reporting offers a good visualization of your data. You can visualize the statistics based on your searches. It produces some helpful graphs that enable you to easily compare what's happening in your search. It's very comprehensive.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"The overall stability and reliability of Coralogix are excellent, and I rarely encounter issues."
"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"Splunk Cloud's most valuable features are log aggregations, dashboarding, business management, reporting, and business controls. Additionally, it has awesome indexing and the solution is always improving"
"The Cloud Platform interface is cleaner than Splunk Enterprise's monitoring console. You can easily understand what's happening with your indexes. It's more refined than Splunk Enterprise's console, but they have the same feel and function."
"The Splunk Cloud Platform has reduced our mean time to resolve. It has easily saved 20 to 30 minutes every time someone gets locked out. We get 10 or 15 instances per day where people get locked out. It definitely saves a few hours per day."
"Splunk Cloud Platform's most valuable features are enterprise security and ticketing integration."
"I like the idea of being able to list the IPs that we want without having to open up a ticket to get it done so that way if anything changes we can add a new IP."
"For my purposes, I like the ability to aggregate lots of data from different sources. I like being able to report for management and being able to get alerts on thresholds being out of sync."
"It is a stable product."
"Its monitoring is completely automated."
 

Cons

"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."
"The customizable dashboards haven't really helped with my company's efficiency at all, and I think there's room for improvement."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."
"Although there is documentation available, it is really hard for me to find relevant topics on what it is that I'm searching for."
"In the case of knowledge objects, even a Splunk admin does not have access to delete them. If we want to remove a knowledge object, we need to contact Splunk support and raise a case. After that, they delete it. They should give us access to delete knowledge objects."
"Extracting meaningful insights beyond essential log data proves challenging due to the product's reliance on manual processes."
"It is sometimes slow. Some of that has to do with the queries themselves not being efficient, but sometimes it is slow."
"The pricing model makes the product costly."
"The expensive nature of the product is an area of concern that needs to be considered for improvement."
"Its stability and performance can be better. Very rarely does a day go by when we do not see an error in the console, such as a health check error. Because it is cloud-hosted, we do not have access to the backend to figure it out ourselves. We are reliant on their support to figure it out, and a couple of days later, the error comes back or it is a different error. It is a never-ending cycle of support tickets. Their support is also not great."
"Splunk Cloud Platform should improve its integrations and consider multiple integrations or direct integration with other platforms like Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, or AWS."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"I know that Splunk Cloud Platform is an expensive product."
"As far as the pricing goes, it was what was expected. It is a premium product. There were no surprises there."
"I am familiar with the pricing and licensing model a little bit. I am not sure about the particulars of the actual price that we have, but I do like the idea of going towards a more CPU-based approach rather than the ingest approach because it allows us the ability to ingest more data if we need it."
"I do not have much idea. We previously used 1 GB at the cost of $600. Both on-prem and cloud licenses have the same price. There is no difference. It did not impact the cost because the costs of the on-prem license and the cloud license are the same. We did not have any issues with that. Overall, its price is reasonable."
"The cost of the Splunk Cloud Platform is high, and in addition to the standard licensing fee, we also have a premium support fee."
"I do not personally deal with that side, but from discussions, I know that it is one of the more expensive tools. I do not have anything to compare it with."
"Splunk Cloud Platform fell within our budget so we pulled the trigger and implemented it."
"There are additional features that you would need to purchase depending on your use case."
