Automation increases efficiency, but pricing needs to be more competitive
Improvement is needed in making it cheaper, of course. I am not emphasizing making it cheaper, however, it should be more competitive with other products. The product itself is very good and helpful for me as a customer. The issue always is the price, as we cannot beat most of our competitors on pricing alone. If a product is just nice to have, not essential like an antivirus, if it's not really competitive with pricing, we cannot sell it.

Unified observability has improved real-time governance and now drives data-led decisions
Log Observer Connect is embedded here, but we are facing some delays in centralized log collection and analysis, which can be further fastened. We are collecting all the data metrics and decision-making insights, but all these data-driven decisions coming from different applications are not connected somewhere. A consolidated form or correlation of these insights is not happening between each other due to which we feel we are missing something significant. Some generalized feedback includes that predictive alerts or alarms which can be integrated with AI-driven alarms and alerting features should be established so that there is AI-driven intelligence and anomaly detection happening with a complete systematic process in service delivery. Application dependencies are huge, and business and operational dashboards should be improved. Right now there are very interactive custom dashboards, and every now and then, the personalization of enhancements keeps happening. KPI monitoring, executive reporting, and analytics have definitely been introduced to a great extent. There are few things in cloud-native monitoring, such as integration with AWS and Azure, where we sometimes do face lags. Those things can definitely be improved upon. I have used Datadog and Dynatrace before using Splunk Observability Cloud. Datadog was definitely recommended by most of our peers because of its very strong comprehensive observability and very strong and unique dashboard systems. Dynatrace was also very good because they have offered a lot of AI-driven analysis methods and processes, which was helping our organization a lot. Since our organization has a very strong IT ecosystem for agriculture, very different kinds of customized things are required.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"If I want to automate the management and maintenance of my server automatically, this product is a good use case for that."
"We have found the solution to be very flexible to our requirements. We have been able to configure it on-premise effectively when we were using less of the cloud."
"Automating processes is crucial for me, so the automation part stands out."
"In terms of most valuable features, we are happy with everything so far, and maybe in a year's time I'll have a different opinion on what can change, what can be better, but for now it's the perfect solution."
"It's a simple and humble tool."
"Everything is running seamlessly on the solution, to the point where you don't see any gap."
"Kaseya Traverse is a very stable solution and very sustainable in terms of what the market wants, what is out there, price-wise and functionality features. They're quite competitive and they are always innovating."
"The remote support and data collection features are great."
"Splunk Observability Cloud scales with the growing needs of my organization effectively."
"Splunk Observability Cloud is highly effective in improving digital resilience, as real-time visibility, proactive alerting, fast root cause analysis, distributed tracing, and AI-driven insights enable anomaly detection, which allows us to quickly understand failures, recover faster, maintain system availability, and handle failures in complex distributed environments by seeing how services interact and where breakdowns occur."
"This solution is very quick to deploy as it is a SaaS solution and integrates with tools like ServiceNow."
"The feature of Splunk Observability Cloud that I prefer most is the easy deployment on the cloud."
"I find the monitoring console very helpful. With one click, I can see how we are performing, and at the same time, I can see what data is flowing."
"Great monitoring of network devices."
"Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring gives us complete visibility without the need for storage."
"The features are pretty much ready out of the box."
 

Cons

"Reporting is a bit difficult."
"I think the software is still a little bit too new to actually fully assess what it has."
"Dashboards and Central Protection were an issue. Also, database monitoring was not there. Even though they said that it was there at an additional cost, that tool was very basic. We couldn't have device configuration backup also."
"Reporting is tedious and not organized in the way customers expect."
"The support for the solution needs some improvement. In my experience, the response time to answer a query is slow."
"With my most recent experiences on the solution, I can say that it isn't currently stable; there are a lot of glitches and bugs and the reliability just isn't there right now."
"However, the issue lies in the adequacy of the responses to my questions, which are usually not up to par."
"In terms of what could be improved, we are innovating all the time, as well as having a look at different avenues so that the strategy follows the structure. I think the software is still a little bit too new to actually fully asses what it has."
"If a customer utilizes third-party tools and wants to forward data from Splunk Observability Cloud, seamless integration would be beneficial."
"In future updates, I would like to see more predefined monitoring query solutions, which could be more effective."
"The initial setup of Splunk Real User Monitoring (RUM) was easy. The solution is deployed on-premises."
"The solution's machine learning deployment is hard and should be made user-friendly."
"I would like to see an improvement and some innovation in the customer interface, which puts something in your design."
"There's no standard use case available where you can see the utilization of the number of use cases I have."
"There is a lot of room for improvement with the automation."
"The licensing model is expensive. We need to monitor the amount of data ingested because the cost is based on the data collected."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not cheap, but it is not too expensive."
"The price depends on whether you are monitoring different applications, especially in bulk, and depends on what you're doing. If you're monitoring one endpoint, it will cost you 150 ZAR."
"Splunk's infrastructure monitoring costs can be high because our billing is based on data volume measured in terabytes, rather than the number of devices being monitored."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"Splunk Observability Cloud is expensive."
"The pricing is based on several factors, including the scale of deployment."
"The solution's pricing is competitive. I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten. The price of the solution could be cheaper."
"I am not in that circle, but we are currently licensing based on our queries. That is working out for us. Previously, it was by volume of data, and now, we can store as much data as we want."
"I would rate the price of Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring as an eight out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
"It appears to be expensive compared to competitors."
