Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We have many application systems, and I can set up Fortinet FortiSIEM for users to monitor their systems.""FortiSIEM is a great tool for making security processes transparent.""The advanced agents used to collect logs have been most valuable. We have also made use of the advanced intelligence this solution offers.""Analytics is the most valuable feature. The business service summaries in the dashboards and the correlations for the SIEM are also valuable features.""The event correlation is pretty robust. The GUI is pretty good.""I like FortiSIEM because it integrates natively with our other Fortinet solutions and the Fortinet Fabric, but it also integrates with Cisco, Palo Alto and other security fabrics.""The ability to write my own parsers for the devices that are not supported by Fortinet is the most valuable feature.""Fortinet FortiSIEM provides good detection against advanced threats."

"Google Chronicle Suite provides useful APIs.""The platform's most valuable features are multiple connectors and data output flexibility regarding dashboards and user experience.""What sets Chronicle apart from other solutions is its emphasis on threat hunting rather than solely serving as a monitoring tool.""The log folder is fairly simple.""Google Chronicle Suite is a highly scalable solution with good search capabilities.""The tool's most valuable feature is the search option, allowing easy navigation.""The support team is responsive.""The product's most valuable feature is threat hunting. We can detect the threats directly from the console from the past data as well."

Cons
"Customer support service could be better.""An improvement would be if FortiSIEM's licensing was based on the number of nodes rather than the EPS.""The dashboard needs to improve.""FortiSIEM could be better integrated with other vendors.""Sometimes, if there are changes made by a user on a database server, it can be difficult to get that information on the fly. I would like to see a situation where once I specify a user with the database server I need, and with the changes they have performed on that, I don't need to continue my search pattern to drill down just to get the information.""The support of the product changed recently, and I don't think it's for the better. They should work to improve the support they offer to clients.""We expect the latest patch from Fortinet FortiSIEM to give the ability to work with signature files.""The interface needs some improvements because it's a bit cumbersome when you're trying to view items. It takes some time to get used to. Additionally, sometimes the scrolling does not work."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM Cons →

"In terms of improvement, the UI can be a bit challenging for beginners.""A few areas are difficult to understand for someone who has less experience using the product.""The tool is complicated for a first-time user. It should also include newer APIs.""The tool needs to improve tasking packages. Its GUI needs to be improved. The product needs to include time-based filtration. We can only see the alert detection timeline now.""The tool is a little bit difficult to use compared to Microsoft Sentinel.""The solution's graphical user interface (GUI) should be more user-friendly.""The product's default dashboard feature has a few limitations regarding availability.""The configuration is not optimal."
