Users report that Splunk APM excels in real-time monitoring capabilities, particularly with its "Real User Monitoring (RUM)" feature, which provides second-by-second metrics, allowing for immediate insights into application performance. In contrast, Splunk Enterprise, while strong in systems monitoring, does not offer the same level of granularity in real-time user data.
Reviewers mention that Splunk APM's "Dynamic Transaction Mapping" feature significantly enhances observability by visualizing complex transactions across multiple services, making it easier to identify performance bottlenecks. Splunk Enterprise, however, focuses more on log management and lacks this specific transaction mapping capability.
G2 users highlight that Splunk APM's "AI/ML Integration" is more robust, with features that assist in proactive identification of issues, whereas Splunk Enterprise's AI/ML capabilities are seen as less effective, particularly in "Root Cause Identification" where users report a need for improvement.
Users on G2 appreciate Splunk APM's "Alerts and Notifications" system, which is noted for its high customization and effectiveness in incident management. In comparison, while Splunk Enterprise also offers alerting features, users say they find it less intuitive and harder to configure.
Reviewers say that Splunk APM shines in its "Dashboards and Visualizations," receiving high praise for user-friendly interfaces that allow for easy data interpretation. Splunk Enterprise, while also strong in this area, is perceived as slightly less accessible, with some users mentioning a steeper learning curve.
Users report that Splunk APM's "Automated Response" capabilities are particularly effective in streamlining incident management processes, allowing teams to respond quickly to issues. Conversely, Splunk Enterprise's automated features are seen as less comprehensive, with users mentioning that they require more manual intervention.
