The training course could do with an update. It was clear that the trainer hadn’t delivered this course for some time without revising it. He wasted time looking up details he had forgotten. Furthermore, some practical exercises were no longer working properly due to changes in Splunk version 10; clearly, the course had been designed for version 9.

There are a few minor improvements to be made to the practical sessions, particularly the dashboard section. Perhaps we could spend a little less time on the theoretical aspects of the tool and a little more time on the practical sessions.

The content is very interesting and strikes a great balance between theory and practice, which makes the course highly interactive. This balance ensures you never lose focus and remain engaged with the course without feeling lost. The trainer is an excellent teacher. He explains things very clearly and takes the time needed to answer all the questions so that nobody is left behind. What’s more, the content seems practical for use afterwards. It’s a course I would recommend 100 per cent.
