Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"AccelOps can handle a lot of data and it's just so important to true monitoring. Also, I can create a lot of rules to detect anything I like.""The primary valuable feature is that it has replaced a whole lot of other products with one platform.""One of the most valuable features is that we can combine SOC and NOC operations in the same tool. We can provide NOC and SOC services in the same tool for two separate teams. There are plenty of third-party solutions that integrate with FortiSIEM. All these solutions already have a ready integration, and we have the possibility to create a custom connector for these solutions. Its reports are also very good.""Analytics. It can provide log information from the device. With log information, I can see if there is a threat""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.""Easy alert setup which enables different alerts in different categories.""Our customer did not have security monitoring in the first place. With this solution, it provided security posture management and visibility about the security landscape and threats that they had."

"ManageEngine OpManager is user-friendly and easy to use. Additionally, useful for basic monitoring.""The alerting feature has improved our organization. We can create multiple alerts and refine them to how we need to use them.""The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to reach most of our network devices and get the most from them.""It is easy to use and deploy.""The uptime and monitoring are valuable to us because we need to monitor the uptime of our services, the memory, and the CPUs.""We don't have to keep an eye on it; it has a good automation option, which keeps us informed. It gives very less false positives. Overall, a really great product.""Flexibility in the two view dashboard helps viewers and admins get the information they need about the fetwork in a flash.""The solution is scalable."

Cons
"Patching is not great - we're not getting the support we'd expect.""Fortinet FortiSIEM could improve to extend to several locations or sites.""There could be more AI features included in the product.""The dashboard needs to improve.""I would like to see easier implementation in the future.""We expect the latest patch from Fortinet FortiSIEM to give the ability to work with signature files.""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.""If there is a configuration on the wrong side of the network or there are changes that result in harm to our IT infrastructure, the solution should immediately fix it."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM Cons →

"They should add more features to URL monitoring.""The only problem with it is that the setup isn't very intuitive. I know that they just upgraded the product to make it a little bit easier to use, but compared to some of the other platforms, it is not easy to configure it, set it up, and get it running. However, once you have set it up and got it running, it runs great.""The solution's reports need to include the number of applications consumed.""It would be great if there were some sort of artificial intelligence feature which would help us make improvements in the network once we find an issue, and do it automatically.""The main area for improvement for ManageEngine OpManager is its performance.""The licensing for this solution is not straightforward and should be improved.""I would like to see more enhancements made to the product.""OpManager is slow but that just might be the server we have it on. I don't think that's the problem but I don't do the server. But it is slow. When you're interacting with it, it could be more nimble and could be faster."
