Has powerful event correlations and is stable, scalable, and easy to set up
We use it for insider threat prevention with iPhones and to identify bad practices that block business processes I like that the core functionality is not in different modules. The event correlation is quite powerful. Incident management could be improved, along with enforcement capabilities,…

Automatic reports streamline tasks and offers easy report gathering
The dashboard part could be improved. While using it, I noticed two options: Classic, which is adequate yet only in black and white, and another one that is more advanced or smart, though I forgot the exact term. I encountered several issues while trying to create solutions for this advanced version, which seem unrelated to query or data issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that the core functionality is not in different modules. The event correlation is quite powerful."
"The solution is fast, flexible, and easy to use."
"This intelligent user behavior analytics package is easy to configure and use while remaining feature filled."
"Features like alerts and auto report generation are valuable."
"We are really pleased with Splunk and its features. It would be practically impossible to function without it. To provide a general overview of the system, it's important to note that the standard log files are currently around 250 gigabytes per day. It would be impossible to manually walk through these logs by hand, which is why automation is essential."
"The best features in Splunk User Behavior Analytics include anomaly detection, behavioral profiling, and risk scoring and prioritization functionality."
"It is a solution that helps test and measure customer satisfaction."
"Splunk is highly valuable for query purposes."
"The solution is definitely scalable."
 

Cons

"Incident management could be improved, along with enforcement capabilities, which DTEX does not have at the moment."
"Enhancing the storage model that they are using is necessary."
"In terms of improvements, advanced reporting could see enhancements as there are some issues with latency."
"They should work to add more built-in correlation searches and more use cases based on worldwide customer experiences. They need more ready-made use cases."
"I'm not aware of any lacking features."
"The solution is much more expensive than relative competitors like ArcSight or LogRhythm. It makes it hard to sell to customers sometimes."
"In terms of improvements, advanced reporting could see enhancements as there are some issues with latency. Additionally, there are challenges with configuration findings during lexical analysis."
"The ability to do more complicated data investigation would be a welcome addition for pros, though the functionality now gives most people what they need."
"A disadvantage is that it can lead to cost overrun if not properly factored or governed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing wise, DTEX would be a four on a scale from one to ten, where one is the highest price and 10 is the lowest price. It is not the cheapest solution."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
"I hope we can increase the free license to be more than 5 gig a day. This would help people who want to introduce a POC or a demo license for the solution."
"My biggest complaint is the way they do pricing... You can never know the pricing for next year. Every single time you adjust to something new, the price goes up. It's impossible to truly budget for it. It goes up constantly."
"Pricing varies based on the packages you choose and the volume of your usage."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."
