What differentiates Splunk Enterprise Security from other similar products?
We like splunk due to its quality and ease of use along with widely available support. As beginners it was not difficult to get our initial data ingestion working and to build custom dashboards that we needed to visualize our data set before using splunk we were unable to understand what our log data was telling us. It was also helpful to prioritize what we had to look at first in terms of the most important and critical and useful data that would be the most beneficial to invest our time into
