Excellent for budgeting and forecasting, but long-term it will no longer be developed or supported
The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble. Additionally, I think we underestimated the time for deployment, we thought it would be a few months and it took much longer than expected because the consultants didn't understand our process in detail before committing to the process. On a scale of one to ten, I would give Hubble a seven.

Centralized security monitoring has transformed our threat detection and incident response
While Splunk Enterprise Platform is widely regarded as a powerful SIEM and observability platform, users across enterprises commonly report recurring challenges including licensing and data ingestion costs. Splunk Enterprise Platform's licensing is often based on the volume of data ingested, and as our organization grows, costs can increase significantly, and our teams may need to carefully decide which logs to ingest, which can limit visibility. A suggested improvement would be more flexible licensing options, better built-in recommendations for optimizing data ingestion, and smarter data compression or tiered pricing. There is also a steep learning curve where beginners can find SPL difficult. A suggested improvement would be more AI-assisted SPL generation, interactive tutorials, and guided dashboard creation with additional pre-built templates for common SOC use cases. These are the main areas for improvement that I can see: licensing flexibility, reducing the learning curve for new users, simplifying development, improving performance for very large datasets, and providing more AI-assisted features to reduce manual effort. In terms of adding more improvements, there are frequently discussed areas including easier third-party integrations. While Splunk Enterprise Platform supports many integrations, onboarding new security tools sometimes requires custom configurations or add-ons. A suggested improvement would be more plug-and-play integrations, faster support for new vendors, and then simplified administration. Administrators often manage indexes, forwarders, user roles, and cluster health, so a suggested improvement would be easier administration dashboards and automated health checks. These are suggestions that acknowledge Splunk Enterprise Platform's strengths while highlighting areas where many enterprise users see opportunities for further improvement. The primary areas for improvement that I see are licensing flexibility, simplifying administration, expanding plug-and-play integrations, and adding more AI-driven assistance for searches and investigations. These improvements would significantly simplify our tasks and help us solve more incidents in a lesser amount of time, making it flexible even for beginners.
