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 is a highly stable solution...It is a highly scalable solution."
"It allows us to gain a comprehensive overview of our infrastructure."
"What I like is that you can have different storage locations for different applications."
"The most valuable feature is server virtualization. It's been very useful."
"One of the most valuable features of vRealize Log Insight is that it gives you a clear forecast about your existing machines, for example, how long your machines could be supported and how long the remaining capacity is to host your machines. This is one of the best options available within vRealize Log Insight. Another valuable feature of the solution is automation. My company deploys a lot of automation when required in a very, very short period, and in a very uniform manner, and even if the automation is being deployed for different processes and departments, it's pretty much the same across the environment, so vRealize Log Insight helps reduce a lot of ambiguities and helps my company manage operational efficiencies well."
"One of the things I like about it is its interface. When it comes to generating reports on VMs and stuff, it's very quick. This is very handy for the technical team, who need to generate reports quickly. So that's really good."
"We use the on-premises version of this solution for log analysis and to find details about certain issues."
"I like the interface."
"Wazuh's best features are syscheck, its ability to immediately resolve vulnerabilities, and that it's open source."
"Wazuh offers an enhanced HDR version that outperforms its competitors."
"Wazuh automatically scans the host for CIS benchmarks for the latest updates and vulnerabilities and gives a host score. It provides a percentage of perceived risk due to of non patches or any missing patches on that work."
"If they support a solution, it is easy to do an integration."
"The tool is stable."
"I like Wazuh because it is a lot like ELK, which I was already comfortable with, so I didn't have to learn from scratch."
"Some of the strengths of Wazuh that stand out for us include its scalability when deployed on Azure, its open-source nature, which allows for customization based on our needs, and its compatibility with various security solutions like threat intelligence platforms."
"Wazuh is free and easy to use. It is also adjustable, and we can use it on the cloud and on-premises."
"Log retention should have more options for user control."
"I think that it should be able to integrate with other third-party backup and recovery solutions, more that it does now."
"The product's price falls on the higher end of the spectrum, making it an area of concern."
"I would like to see more tutorials or at least an introduction video from the supplier, so you can become proficient and get the most out of the solution. You might not get the full benefit from a logging or reporting solution because you might not have a particular tool enabled. You could leave something out of your analysis because you aren't aware of it or you don't know how to set it up."
"The dashboard needs to be improved because this is what I need to monitor my infrastructure."
"I don't use the solution on a day to day basis, so I'm not sure what specifically can be improved."
"In the VMware environment, one area for improvement is the handling of VM failovers due to host failures, such as unexpected shutdowns from hardware issues. Currently, High Availability (HA) doesn't seem to recognize whether the VMs are online during failover, treating them as offline or unavailable."
"The solution isn't user-friendly for admins."
"Wazuh is missing many things that a typical SIEM should have."
"Some features, like alerting, are complex with Wazuh."
"One area where Wazuh could use some improvement is in its reporting mechanism, especially for high-level management like CSOs and CEOs."
"It would be great if there could be customization for the decoder portion."
"Log data analysis could be improved. My IT team has been looking for an alternative because they want better log data for malware detection. We are also doing more container implementation also, so we need better container security, log data analysis, auditing and compliance, malware detection, etc."
"I think that the next release should be more suitable for large enterprises, because currently they are not because large companies do not rely on open source solutions."
"Wazuh could improve the detection, it is not detecting all of the attacks. Additionally, it is lacking features compared to other solutions."
"Wazuh should come up with more in-built rules and integrations for the cloud."
