What does the CertWizard price cover?

It is a support-service price. Confirm the exact support, exam voucher, materials and optional extras in your written quote before ordering. Timing depends on preparation, prerequisites and available exam appointments.

How do legacy exams differ from current certifications?

ES Admin, SOAR Automation Developer and ITSI Admin are legacy certifications. Their exams remain available, but content is no longer updated. Choose a current route unless your role specifically calls for a legacy credential.

How do I keep my certification current?

Splunk certifications are valid for three years. Current renewal routes include retaking the same exam during the final year of validity or earning an eligible higher certification in the same track. Course-only renewal ended in March 2026. Check your individual record and the issuer’s current policy.
