Find out in this report how the two Log Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's a great solution for management. We can manage a lot at the same time with one security management system. Also, each gateway depends on the other, which is helpful."
"Mobile access has helped us cater to more than 4000 users so that they can work from home."
"The intuitive interface also allows new team members to adapt to the technology if they are not familiar with it initially. It doesn't take much for one to familiarize themselves with the product."
"The features we like and find the most valuable are the ways we can manage the policy, create objects, and drag and drop objects in our daily operation. It makes our daily operation on the firewall management much easier than going, for example, to one firewall, then going to the other."
"The control is granular, so you can set policy profiles for different organizational profiles."
"The interface also makes it easy for us to configure the VPN from the GUI rather than the command line, which makes it easy even for less experienced engineers to work with."
"The cluster solution made our job easier any fault to the device will not halt entire internet connectivity."
"The unique management using Smart Console for all firewalls is very useful."
"It basically helps us. We have to stay in compliance with certain issues with some of our customers. We have to have these types of tools in place for protecting our network and our data. We're in the aerospace industry, so we have a lot of defense contracts. So, all those guys will make sure that we're protecting their information, and it does a good job in that aspect."
"The deployment is quite simple and pretty straightforward."
"You can have all of the logs from servers to network and it gets sent out to the correct owners. This is very helpful."
"The Sharecon feature is the most valuable."
"It is easier to deploy than are other SIEMs, which is great. You can also get an overview of your environment, which is very handy."
"It is nice to be able to monitor and to have notifications."
"We haven't had any stability issues."
"The most valuable feature is that this solution is more secure than others, and there are more applications and features as well."
"The management API can be further developed so that all functions offered by the dashboard are also available via the API (for example, Network Topology)."
"I would like it to be the administrator of equipment or Next Generation firewalls (which have to be managed on this platform) and to be able to manage other services (like Harmony) that also belong to Check Point."
"I would like to bind users to their network, as well as their local office machine."
"The tool is expensive."
"It sometimes blocks safe sites when I am researching, affecting the overall output and wasting time."
"I would like the ability to have an overview, cross-site: One portal that does all firewalls. Also, the user interface is overly complicated."
"Being a security appliance, there should be the ability for the Security Management server to send email alerts via authenticated email."
"I would like this solution to be integrated directly into the Cluster XL equipment."
"The integration with SharePoint and Teams should be improved."
"The solution lacks some features when compared to other products."
"There is room for improvement, especially in the reporting aspect. The reports are not as good as those in Splunk."
"It's difficult to find which conditions have been applied to a report because they are provided by default by ManageEngine. However, with other SIEMs if you want to create a report, they provide details, like which conditions are triggering certain reports. This needs to be there in ManageEngine. It would be good to know which parameter has been applied to the report that is updating the system."
"Most times log sheets are not assigned well."
"On the logging system, there's a local on-client side that is encrypted, and there's one that is not encrypted. It is only for diagnostical purposes. However, both being encrypted would be very valuable for some audits."
"We can log in as a local user, and it's fine, but when we login with an Active Directory user, we cannot."
"It is not expensive compared to other solutions."
