"Splunk Review"

4/5

What do you like best about Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring?

User interface is nice and clear. Interactivity is good. Created dashboards and data searching features. Recently started using this . Currently using microsoft powerBI for BI analytics but having some performance issues . We heard about splunk tools and trying to analyze features splunk provide . I have tried Splunk for charts and pivots. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring?

As I started using recently not aware of many features but used selective and found them easy to use and install. Mainly I used setting up dashboards and pivot with data. Main usage of the tool for me is for web analytics with large data. Performance is big concern as our data is quite large and we need to extract reports /charts for analytics.As on now I didn't find anything to dislike. Tool is easy to use and handle as per my needs. I do wish to learn commands /query to search datasets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring:

Handy and easy to use tool for data aggregations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring solving and how is that benefiting you?

"Great for real performance testing"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring?

Doing any type of performance testing in a "real environment" is hard. Replicating your production environment on a development machine is near impossible to do exactly, and in general you don't want to poke around too much in your actual production environment. SignalFX is great for handling those situations where we want to get better visibility into bottlenecks in our production environment. Using their API to add traces to our code is very simple, and the dashboards are generally easy to read. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring?

Having to add traces to various functions in our software and merge in PRs can be a bit of a pain (especially without a continuous delivery environment). It would be nice if we could toggle our traces as needed.

Additionally, setting up new panels on the dashboard is not as intuitive for a first-time user as I would like, especially coming from a Kibana background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using SignalFX to monitor and alert for usage spikes in our software, as well as add tracing information to slow endpoints. We have successfully used SignalFX to determine which functions are eating up the most time in our endpoints, which we can use a starting point to make changes to improve their performance.

"Great service. Great track record of improvement. Great promise."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring?

Their visualizations of all different kinds of data are great. Their pricing model (data points per minute) really shows that they understand SaaS customers. This helps me manage spend by choosing what metrics I report and how often.

SignalFlow has been very useful for more complex charts. Their recent improvements to detectors is very welcome. We use a long list of their integrations (redis, mongodb, ES, C\* and more) are great. They open-source the collected plugins which allows us to make local changes.

Like us, they are growing and looking to provide more and more features. We plan on using many of these new features as they are released / mature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring?

The occasional "Down for Maintenance" pages (~2x / month) that require me to reload all of the wall-mount displays in the office. Occasional (less and less frequent) obviously bad data in charts. Usually fixed by a page reload.

I still wish for more flexibility / features for building and reusing charts and dashboards, but they have implemented a lot of our requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring:

Use them. Plan to invest the time in getting metrics to them correctly. We had much better luck sending application metrics directly from our app than going through statsd to collected first. We still send host-level metrics from collected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Splunk Infrastructure Monitoring solving and how is that benefiting you?

I run operations for a globally distributed (5 AWS regions) CAD SaaS. We use SignalFx for all of our operations monitoring plus a subset of our application (user behavior) metrics. We were very early customers of SFx and replaced Datadog with it. Our first year with them (2015) was a growth year for both of us. There were a bunch of problems in the beginning, but they have been great to work with and have really hit their stride in the past year.

As our service has grown, we have used SFx to grow with us. We are able to rapidly respond to service issues and get insight into how our application is performing and being used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
