What do you like best about Splunk IT Essentials Work?

Splunk is THE tool we use on devops in order to monitor and get alerts for our digital infrastructure, from our servers to our microservices to our partners. We live on Splunk because it provides alerts, specific detailed notifications about problems, and is a great way to search for the variety of logs that the software provides. I think the interface is rather intuitive and clear to understand as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Splunk IT Essentials Work?

The problem with Splunk is probably with the searching functionality. While it seems to be pretty fast, sometimes it's hard to syntactically pull the data I want when I am doing analysis on a failed program, job, or other systems failure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Splunk IT Essentials Work:

Splunk is a fantastic piece of software when you must manage a variety of systems across different environments. It's a great idea to get this installed in all the environments so you know EXACTLY what's going on, every minute of the day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Splunk IT Essentials Work solving and how is that benefiting you?

Splunk is allowing our devops team to sleep better at night and not worry as much during the day when we are managing a variety of servers and systems that we must keep online all the time. We've been able to get mission critical notifications ahead of time so we can remedy problems before they become big in magnitude. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
