We performed a comparison between Elastic Security and Malwarebytes 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 indexes allow you to get your results quickly. The filtering and log passing is the advantage of Logstash."
"Enables monitoring of application performance and the ability to predict behaviors."
"We chose the product based on the ability to scan for malware using a malware behavioral model as opposed to just a traditional hash-based antivirus. Therefore, it's not as intensive."
"The solution is quite stable. The performance has been good."
"ELK documentation is very good, so never needed to contact technical support."
"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 most valuable thing is that this solution is widely used for work management and research. It's easy to jump into the security use case with the same technology."
"The solution has a good community surrounding it for lots of helpful documentation for troubleshooting purposes."
"The installation process is very easy, especially since it is on the cloud."
"It is a stable solution."
"It gets the job done, and they are consistently updating it monthly."
"The protection is really good with Malwarebytes. It's also user friendly and quite easy to set up."
"Being able to carry out a full scan on your system."
"We have seen a decrease of approximately ninety percent in the number of events."
"Being able to cloud manage it from just a cloud login is valuable. We can get to it from anywhere, which is really helpful. The fact that we can remediate from the cloud console is one of our favorite features."
"When it comes to frontend protections, it has some of the best definitions. In addition, they do traditional signature and heuristic detection a lot better than Microsoft and some other players in that space."
"It could use maybe a little more on the Linux side."
"The tool should improve its scalability."
"Email notification should be done the same way as Logentries does it."
"This type of monitoring is not very mature just yet. We need more real-time information in a way that's easier to manage."
"The solution could also use better dashboards. They need to be more graphical, more matrix-like."
"The process of designing dashboards is a little cumbersome in Kibana. Unless you are an expert, you will not be able to use it. The process should be pretty straightforward. The authentication feature is what we are looking for. We would love to have a central authentication system in the open-source edition without the need for a license or an enterprise license. If they can give at least a simple authentication system within a company. In a large organization, authentication is very essential for security because logs can contain a lot of confidential data. Therefore, an authentication feature for who accesses it should be there."
"This solution cannot do predictive maintenance, so we have to build our own modules for doing it."
"I would like more ways to manage permissions and restrict access to certain users."
"They could come up with better reporting capabilities."
"Overall, I haven't found any ways the solution lacks in features or usability."
"We had a little performance problem with the solution, but that's been resolved. Since then, it's been running well."
"The online reporting needs to be improved. Currently, we have to look at it online, and if we want to download a report, it just downloads as an Excel file. It's just raw information. There needs to be some way to better display it when it's downloaded."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."
"A solution must be installed in the main gateway to give an overview of the incoming and outgoing traffic. The technical support team's response time should be faster."
"Malwarebytes should improve its mobile compatibility."
