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 solution is easy to use and to start with."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"There is definitely the ease of the infrastructure administration. It frees up a lot of time."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Cloud Platform is the alerting feature."
"The log search capabilities are very good."
"The most valuable feature is the SPL because without it we wouldn't be able to correlate and build our use cases and manage what we have for our data inside Splunk."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Cloud is the quick setup."
"The most valuable features are reliability and logging. It's in the cloud so it has more stability and easy maintenance."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk Cloud Platform is its flexibility and readiness because it's already prebuilt, and everything is click-to-go."
"The most valuable feature for me is the flexibility of being able to send the log to the https endpoint."
 

Cons

"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."
"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."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."
"They can offer more self-service capability to their customers. Currently, most of the things happen behind the Splunk Cloud Platform. As a customer, I do not have an opportunity to see my platform. If they can offer more self-service to see the health of my endpoints and stack, it would be appreciated."
"The return on investment with Splunk Cloud Platform has been poor. There is a significant possibility we will be replacing it in the next quarter or two."
"Splunk Cloud Platform should have better integrations with its suite of tools."
"The only disadvantage of Splunk Cloud compared to Splunk Enterprise Security is that you only have two options for long-term storage: AWS S3 Buckets and GCP."
"I would love to be able to manage my own apps."
"Splunk Cloud Platform should improve its integrations and consider multiple integrations or direct integration with other platforms like Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, or AWS."
"Splunk currently manages the components, which restricts our ability to access them directly."
"I think the tool has some scalability issues, especially when used in larger organizations."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"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."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"Currently, we have the ingest-based license. They are offering SVC-based licenses as well, but I am not a fan of SVC-based licensing. At the end of the day, I want to predict my budget and how much I am going to pay to the vendor so that I can plan my yearly budget."
"My company has a license for Splunk Cloud Platform. My company also has a license for Splunk Enterprise."
"The cost of using Splunk Cloud Platform is high, but the value it provides is worth the investment."
"The licensing costs depend on the state of your environment and the fees are paid on a monthly basis."
"The price for Splunk Cloud Platform is the same as our maintenance costs for Splunk Enterprise on-premises."
"The licensing is based on the amount of data that we send to the cloud on a daily basis."
"The pricing model makes this an expensive solution."
"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."
