Automation workflows have transformed our IT, enabling secure just-in-time access control
We work with them quite often, so we have a direct line regarding areas in Torq that have room for improvement. If we have a feature request, we can request it. I do not have anything in mind at the moment. We were a design partner for a short while, so we feel that they listen and that users of the system have an impact on the way the system is designed for the better. They have a new community, which is something that I personally suggested years ago. There are many people like me in different places and they might have already built the workflow that I need. Having the option to share workflows or to jump on a thread and say I have this need, did anyone ever build a workflow for it, is amazing. Someone would jump in and say yes, sure, here, take this workflow. I think this is an amazing thing and I really hope that the community will come alive because I think this is really powerful. This is something that I already suggested and it did happen eventually, and I am quite happy with it. I do not have any specific feature in mind that I have a need for at the moment.

Simple deployment, scalable, but lacking third-party solution compatibility
Integrating IBM Resilient with other applications can be very difficult and technically challenging. Often, they use the excuse that you are using the latest version of an application, such as an endpoint security system, and they don't have an API or support for it at the moment. There is no automation in the SOAR solution. It's worth noting that many third-party add-on applications needed to be purchased separately to integrate with IBM Resilient. While there were built-in applications available for incident remediation, the selection was limited. Additionally, integrating third-party applications was often a difficult and time-consuming process due to the technical complexity involved.

Automates threat response and reduces investigation time but needs better threat intelligence integration
One thing that we would like to see with Splunk SOAR is the expandability to the threat intelligence feed. Currently, we have limited ingestion to the threat intelligence feed for the correlation purpose. We would like to see it being integrated, with license cost or without license cost, to leading threat intelligence sources such as Recorded Future, Feedly, or Flare. That is something we would appreciate having integrated. The second thing on the improvement side is about exposed credential-related information. If we start ingesting those data to Splunk SOAR or SIEM with some sort of integration with threat intelligence feed, that will also improve our detection and prediction method or help us with the investigation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Once I started to use the system and I saw the potential, it changed all of our work in IT."
"What I appreciate most about Torq is that it is an essential part of our system."
"As an analyst, it has demonstrated potential to reduce workforce requirements and time needed for related activities."
"Using that one piece of AI, we auto-closed 511 cases in quarter four alone."
"The product is very good at incident response."
"Its flexibility is the most valuable."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"The UBA, User Behavior Analytics, is very good."
"It's really simple and has a flexible interface."
"As a whole, the product is stable...Technical support is very good."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk SOAR that stands out is it has a great SOAR. The automation and orchestration module is highly mature. A lot of use cases are on user entity and behavioral analytics (UEBA), which is artificial intelligence and machine learning-based (AIML)."
"When you design a playbook, you can integrate multiple log sources and define rules... After that, the platform automatically compiles all these activities and, based on the results, the analyst only has to indicate whether the result is a true or false positive. That reduces the time and effort involved."
"The most valuable features are the Splunk SOAR apps and playbooks."
"It has definitely saved a decent amount of time for our analysts so they can focus on other tasks."
"I like the integration capabilities of Phantom. It has a lot of integrations with other products. Its searching methodologies are also good. It is also easy to understand and easy to create playbooks."
"The customization continues to be excellent."
"The automation part of the product is great."
"Before its use, analyzing each email would take at least 15 to 20 minutes, with some complex cases taking up to 30 minutes...With the automation provided by Splunk Phantom, we could significantly reduce the amount of time and human effort required to complete this task."
 

Cons

"Regarding stability, I have noticed some lagging, crashing, and downtime, which is one of my largest gripes."
"It was able to capture data but was unable to differentiate between the agent hostname we are using and the hostname that resides on the back end of the Internet."
"The initial deployment of Torq was not easy."
"The implementation could be a bit simpler."
"Integration with some devices, including Cisco PowerPower and certain antivirus products, has limitations."
"This product could be improved with better customization. This product isn't the best on the market like QRadar, but it's actually a good solution. However, some competitors' solutions contain more integration, support, automation, or flexibility."
"It is not very straightforward to set up custom integrations, especially with services like Azure. You need an additional server for integration."
"The initial setup is complex."
"One thing to improve is how it handles data formats, which currently might require scripting for conversion to CSV before uploading."
"The product needs a bit more development."
"There are shortcomings with IBM Resilient's technical support team that can be considered for improvement in the future."
"Splunk SOAR does not help me reduce my security event volume; in fact, it makes them massive."
"The creation of playbooks is complex in Splunk SOAR, and the number of integrations needs enhancement. Although it enhances alert handling, it still has a journey to compete with Palo Alto SOAR and FortiSOAR."
"The pricing could be a bit more reasonable. It would be great if it were feasible for smaller organizations."
"The tool's response is slower because it has to search through a huge dataset, which can be improved for latency."
"The technical support for the Splunk SIEM solution was average."
"One thing that we would like to see with Splunk SOAR is the expandability to the threat intelligence feed."
"They can improve on what they are currently doing. They can provide more playbooks or at least template playbooks that are in their repository."
"The solution must provide more AIOps to improve predictability."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"There are no costs except for the support services that our company pays in addition to the licensing charges attached to the solution."
"We could create unlimited users using the license we had purchased."
"Pricing for the solution is good, in my opinion."
"The cost of the product is quite high."
"I would rate the tool’s pricing a three out of ten. The tool’s pricing is on a yearly basis."
"I feel it is an expensive product when my company pays annually for renewal, support, and follow-up."
"There is a license you need to pay for in order to use this product."
"The licensing cost for IBM Resilient is not too expensive, but it's not affordable, so it's moderately expensive. Regarding price, I'm rating the solution seven out of ten. The company pays for the license yearly, based on the number of users. Apart from the cost of the license you need to pay for each user, you also need to spend an initial investment for the base platform. You also have to pay for IBM Resilient support."
"It's very overpriced because it is based on the number of users. There is no bulk licensing."
"Splunk SOAR is more expensive compared to other options for SOAR."
"The licensing cost is reasonable."
"The tool is not cheap."
"We renewed it this year. This year was the first time there was a dramatic increase in the price. It was kind of non-negotiable. It was just a high increase. We had internal communications, and it was definitely a surprise to us. In a short time frame, we renewed it this year. Prices are going up everywhere, but they are not always justifiable, at least not to our eyes. The pricing this year was definitely a big shock."
"I found the price of Splunk SOAR to be good."
"Splunk is a fast enterprise tool, but it costs too much. At the same time, it's worth what we pay, in my opinion. We can efficiently perform all the functions and tie together the data. It's the perfect tool for our needs."
"Splunk SOAR is moderately priced, neither cheap nor overly expensive."
