We performed a comparison between LogRhythm NetMon and SCOM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The protocols with which you see the traffic for a particular website that a client has in their environment, for example, are valuable. We can monitor whether the traffic is up to the mark or whether they need to add more bandwidth. Also, we can see if we're able to get real-time environment data as well. The customization dashboard is really good. LogRhythm NetMon has its own in-built dashboards which are helpful in guiding customization."
"NetMon's best feature is traffic analysis."
"It has a very strong artificial intelligence engine."
"The analytics feature is the most valuable feature."
"Visibility is a valuable feature, the ability to see even if the traffic is not going into the firewall"
"The most valuable feature is the log, which can be analyzed by our SIEM solution."
"The solution primarily drives system information, and I believe it works fine."
"It takes a lot of the headache out of managing your data centers and software in other places."
"The advantages of SCOM are that it is definitely user friendly and a more appropriate solution for what we need."
"SCOM's most valuable features are the network path feature, reporting, and integration with business intelligence."
"I like the historical reporting of observer metrics."
"The most valuable feature is the monitoring of Windows and Linux servers."
"It has good graphs of what is going on within the operating system."
"The most valuable feature is the extensibility, as there are really no limits as to what you can do with it."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Some of the automated tasks we can perform on QRadar cannot be performed on LogRhythm because the solution has limitations."
"The training for this product is not very good and needs to be improved."
"Could use a topology diagram which would help get an exact visual."
"I would like to see better integration with multiple products. Integration is not something that is readily available for most of the products."
"There is an issue with tunneling in relation to how the connectivity is established between the end devices and where NetMon is installed. On the console, I often observe that there's a difference of a few seconds or maybe a minute, and this lag time should not be there."
"Sometimes it's hard to find the network devices' self-audit logs."
"LogRhythm NetMon's pricing model is an area of concern that should be made a little bit cheaper in comparison to the other players in the market currently."
"In terms of features that could be improved, I would say the agent integration into the operating system. We are having difficulties integrating Linux into some of the networking devices."
"We didn't know the solution enough, and therefore, it took a while to set everything up correctly. There was a learning curve."
"Application monitoring must be improved."
"Third-party tools have had to be created to make SCOM management pack creation more efficient and effective. However, this weighs down the application as it just adds a resource requirement, which is ballooning the size of the necessary storage and all that for essentially substandard components."
"I would like to see them improve their network monitoring."
"Direct integration with third-party tools, like ticketing systems, is lacking but would be beneficial."
"SCOM's feature that notifies us when a server is down is not present in recent updates, which has weakened the product."
"There are some negative points about this product. Sometimes, the capabilities of the software don't appear, and you can't directly see the results. You have to wait for a long period to refresh the policy to push it to the software or other patches."
