When you see what other tools can do, you realize how primitive splunk is. Granted I still like the events pages and the way you can filter on that. Like any legacy software, companies will probably be on it until 2050. No one cares about the company any more. Cisco now.

I used to be proud to say I worked at Splunk and to some degree still am. However, when I speak to people who say "we moved off Splunk" or "We wanted to buy more Splunk until we had meetings with them"...it didn't used to be that way. Shame.

I have lots of former colleagues who are at Cisco now. They are already getting ready to cut so many from Splunk. They basically say, the weak must be separated....well....we all know how weak Splunkers are. hahahahahaha. have fun wearing that splunk tee when you're let go.

I have used 4-5 tools since leaving Splunk....and all of them are better. It's VERY easy to see why splunk made money and had customers for so long...they were the first one on the block, but the security game has changed, drastically. No one wants to have to sit and sfit through logs. I mean, ge-z, how about logging actual incidents instead of writing out some archaic SPL. It su-ks cause they have so many customers that have it, it's going to be hard to just unseat it cause it will take time to migrate and train people on whatever product comes next. I worked there for a minute. Worst experience of my life. Anyone that says "it wasn't always like this" is clueless. You can't turn a blind eye to employee abuse and r-acism. Saw it so much there.
