"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiSIEM is the user and entity behave as analytics(UEBA). This feature mixes your data and provides useful information based on the behavior of the targeted."
"The product is quite well-organized. The GUI makes it easy to navigate."
"We're able to get real-timec as well as our customer networks that we're monitoring at all times."
"I like FortiSIEM because it integrates natively with our other Fortinet solutions and the Fortinet Fabric, but it also integrates with Cisco, Palo Alto and other security fabrics."
"It's very easy for anyone to work with."
"Analytics is the most valuable feature. The business service summaries in the dashboards and the correlations for the SIEM are also valuable features."
"The interface is very easy to use. The connector in the core has FortiSIEM support from the vendor."
"Reporting on NetCrunch is pretty good. It's very similar to SolarWinds. It's just a different interface. The majority of everything there was beneficial."
"They could work on their documentation. If there's anything about the solution that needs improvement, it's that. For example, documentation already is on a very high level but specifically on the CLI there are tons of features which can be fine-tuned and thousands of commands are very difficult to document. If they could make this easier, it would improve the overall solution."
"Patching is not great - we're not getting the support we'd expect."
"The backup and recovery process for this solution needs improvement."
"The product does not have Security Orchestration and Automation Response, I would recommend adding this feature."
"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."
"The graphs on the user interface could be improved as we often experience glitches."
"The support of the product changed recently, and I don't think it's for the better. They should work to improve the support they offer to clients."
"I didn't care for the role-based, permission-based options, which were not the best."
