"There are many valuable features in this product, but probably the biggest is the customization capability it has."
"This solution is more applications reference architecture focused. Its benefit is that it specializes in that space."
"Wire data analytics."
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"The most valuable features are security detections, perimeter detection, dashboards, and alerts."
"Analytics. It can provide log information from the device. With log information, I can see if there is a threat"
"Some of our customers who use this solution have seen improvement in their connection with load balancing on both connections."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM's most valuable feature is the simplicity in handling multi-tenancy and the ability to switch between different clients at the same time. That was handled flawlessly."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM provides good detection against advanced threats."
"It is used as an alerting platform."
"We find the solution to be stable."
"The CMDB and the device discovery features are most valuable."

"We'd like to see a local presence within the region in order to have seamless service whether it's the support, the implementation, or professional services."
"FortiSIEM needs to expand its integration with third-party vendors. I don't know if Forcepoint has been added, but there were limited resources for integrating Forcepoint solutions when we implemented FortiSIEM. It integrates well with other Fortinet products and solutions from established cybersecurity companies like Palo Alto but doesn't integrate with some of the newer vendors."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM could improve by having better integration and extensions. This would benefit by allowing us to give more rules."
"With FortiSIEM, the issue has to do with the ways we can generate a report. It's not as flexible compared to that with other SIEM tools, like Splunk."
"Creating parsers to try make unknown events or currently unsupported devices produce meaningful information is extremely cumbersome."
"Network detection and response is a separate product."
"The only drawback is the licensing model. It can get expensive if you want to integrate more solutions."
"They should enhance the solution's AI capabilities, including XDR and EDR."
"The solution needs to do a better job with third party integration. Right now, that's lacking on the solution. I specifically am talking about the AWS environment. Most of the AWS environment products do not have that capability to integrate."
