Likelihood to Recommend
Well-Suited Scenarios:
Real-Time Threat Response: ES excels in swiftly detecting and responding to security threats through data correlation.
Compliance Management: ES streamlines compliance with detailed logs and reports, ideal for regulated industries.
User Behavior Analytics: Effective in monitoring user and entity behavior, particularly for insider threat detection.
Large-Scale Environments: Valuable for organizations with diverse data sources and high volumes of data.
Incident Investigation: ES aids in post-incident analysis, reconstructing events to understand root causes.
Less Appropriate Scenarios:
Smaller Organizations: For simpler setups, ES may be complex and costly.
Static Environments: In low-risk settings, ES's advanced features may be unnecessary.
Limited Resources: Tight budgets or sparse IT resources may hinder effective ES use.
Lack of In-House Expertise: Without security experts, optimizing ES can be challenging.
Budget Constraints: ES may be cost-prohibitive for budget-conscious organizations, prompting consideration of more affordable alternatives.

It can be used in organizations which maintain large number of computers. Especially protecting the servers where the entire organization data is hosted. In all these cases data protection is the primary concern and McAfee Threat Intelligence Exchange could easily do this job by giving proper insights, reports and blocking suspicious websites.

Cons
  • To identify User Behaviour analysis is lacking component which we get in Splunk UBA.
  • The documentation part is hard to work on because if the new user tries to learn ES then the documentation is not user-friendly.
  • ES must ass more Knowledge objects by default to make security-related aspects more reliable and enhance the details.

We are very happy with Splunk and would advise anyone to take a serious look at it. It might look pricey but the rewards Splunk offers seem endless.

Usability
You definitely need to learn how to use Splunk to get the most of the tool. There are many courses available for free to get up to speed on the usability of the tool but it's not that simple. It will take time to digest all the data and to understand how to query for what you are looking for.

Reliability and Availability
I'm not an ES user, but, in my implementation I usually try to prevent all service stops to guarantee High availability to the final customers.

Performance
ES requires a very performant infrastructure: if it has it's performant, otherwise not. I had situation with a very performant infrastructure and I didn't notized that it was a distributed architecture, it seemed that there ware few data on my PC, othewise I experienced less performant infrastructures with less performaces.

Support Rating
It's good when it's responsive, but I've had times where I had to wait quite a while for a response. But these are typically the exceptions rather than the rule. When you do get a response it is always well-informed and appropriate. I would say they've been trending better over time with this.

In-Person Training
I experienced only on-line training, but the trainers were very professional and competent. Maybe it could be more useful if they also have an experience in projects because sometimes they didn't have a real project experience to communicate to the students. Anyway, it was very interesting and I learned many thing that's very difficoult (or maybe impossible!) to have by myself, aven if I have more than 10 years of Splunk activity experience.

Online Training
It was very interesting and I learned many thing that's very difficoult (or maybe impossible!) to have by myself. The only problem was that, when I worked with the Splunk Professional Services, I found some difference between the training contents and the information from PS. In addition is required a long experience on Splunk Enterprise for the data ingestion part, in other words I'm able to work with ES because I'm worling on Splunk since 11 years, otherwise I'd some problem.

It's a fantatic product and it was very useful the presence of Splunk Professional Services for the Design Phase and the final Health Check.

Alternatives Considered
LogRhythm is good for a team comprising mostly non-technical IT users. Unlike Splunk, it has a GUI log search and a good ticketing system. Splunk is better than Logrhythm for me as it provides me with the ultimate flexibility to write custom queries. Scalyr is a good tool and quite frankly lot faster than Splunk. However, I prefer Splunk because of its better Dashboards and panel customization abilities. Elastic is another amazing tool. It is hard to choose between the two especially because both have different sets of logs on them. I use both. Elastic for internal server logs, Splunk for everything else.

McAfee is much more efficient than security products used so far, But only thing is, It is heavy on systems and it does take a lot of memory which makes the system slow. Other than that it does provide excellent customer support to clear all our queries. Good security features.

We have on prem splunk and it’s mostly east to setup, but we have issues keeping data separated between customer splunk deployments while at the same time only having to look at one SIEM to address events in every environment
