We performed a comparison between Elastic Security and ManageEngine Log360 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."The intelligence of the system has been very impressive. It's not quite AI, but the technical bit where it correlates information, based on the seen attacks within an organization is good."
"ELK documentation is very good, so never needed to contact technical support."
"It's very customizable, which is quite helpful."
"The most valuable features are the speed, detail, and visualization. It has the latest standards."
"It's very stable and reliable."
"What customers found most valuable in Elastic Security feature-wise is the search capability, in particular, the way of writing the search query and the speed of searching for results."
"The product has huge integration varieties available."
"Elastic is straightforward, easy to integrate, and highly customizable."
"The reports that you can run are really nice."
"The reporting is great. Everything you need is in the report for you already."
"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."
"ManageEngine Log360 is not difficult to deploy."
"The Sharecon feature is the most valuable."
"We haven't had any stability issues."
"It is nice to be able to monitor and to have notifications."
"The solution could be improved by including XDR, remediation and Sandbox."
"There are connectors to gather logs for Windows PCs and Linux PCs, but if we have to get the logs from Syslog then we have to do it manually, and this should be automated."
"There isn't really a very good user experience. You need a lot of training."
"If the documentation were improved and made more clear for beginners, or even professionals, then we would be more attracted to this solution."
"Elastic Security can be a bit difficult to use if a person only has experience in SMBs with tools like Zoho. The product can also be difficult for those who have never dealt with query language."
"If you compare this with CrowdStrike or Carbon Black, they can improve."
"Technical support could respond faster."
"One thing they could add is a quick step to enable users who don't have a solid background to build a dashboard and quickly search, without difficulty."
"There should be a simulation environment to check whether my Elastic implementation is functioning perfectly fine. Other solutions have their own Android and iOS applications that I can install on my mobile so that I am continuously connected to the SIEM."
"The graphical interface could be made easier to use when you are connecting to different network equipment."
"There is room for improvement, especially in the reporting aspect. The reports are not as good as those in Splunk."
"The solution needs to improve hub storage. It should integrate AI and ML capabilities."
"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."
"The support needs improvement."
"It takes a little bit of time for Log360 to actually learn your environment."
"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."
