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."ArcSight provides the basic information that we want."
"It's a robust, mature product and you can do some really complex operations and analytics."
"The technical support team is good...It is a scalable solution."
"It's an efficient solution."
"The log digestion features from threat intelligence platforms like Recorded Future or Talos are valuable."
"In terms of ArcSight Logger's most valuable feature, it is their scalability. ArcSight's real advantage is its scalability because they have two layers, including the logger layer."
"We check a lot of logs in ArcSight Logger because we're running a massive database platform."
"The most valuable feature is the level of detail that you can see about certain events, even when they do not come up in the console."
"Offers a valuable logging transport feature"
"Provides visibility into the performance uptime."
"Our company has a corporate account for Google Cloud and so our systems and clusters integrate really well."
"It's easy to use."
"We find the solution to be stable."
"The most valuable feature is the multi-cloud integration, where there is support for both GCP and AWS."
"The features that I have found most valuable are its graphs - if I need any statistics, in Kubernetes or Kong level or VPN level, I can quickly get the reports."
"The cloud login enables us to get our logs from the different platforms that we currently use."
More Google Cloud's operations suite (formerly Stackdriver) Pros →
"ArcSight has been sold two or three times, and the quality has decreased."
"The product's connectors should work better and the user manuals need an update."
"The speed of Logger indexing and searching for certain bugs for some queries that we provide could be improved. It can handle a huge number of logs but it can be improved."
"The solution could be improved in maintenance settings."
"It's not a new product and is a bit complex. So, it requires a person dedicated to working on it and to know about it in and out. It is a huge product, and the search operation is a bit complicated for a new user or someone who has not used it for long. So for that person, it becomes a bit difficult."
"I would like to see better scheduling in the next release of this solution."
"I would rate the technical support only 5 out of 10. The technical support is not satisfactory."
"We have had problems with archiving."
"Lacking sufficient operations documentation."
"It could be more stable."
"The process of logging analytics can be improved"
"If I want to track any round-trip or breakdowns of my response times, I'm not able to get it. My request goes through various levels of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and comes back to my client machine. Suppose that my request has taken 10 seconds overall, so if I want to break it down, to see where the delay is happening within my architecture, I am not able to find that out using Stackdriver."
"It could be even more automated."
"It is difficult to estimate in advance how much something is going to cost."
"While we are satisfied with the overall performance, in certain cases we must add additional metrics and additional tools like Grafana and Dynatrace."
"The product provides minimal metrics that are insufficient."
