Pros
"The features I have found most valuable are it capabilities for behavioral analytics and anomaly detection.""ArcSight Analytics has improved our system and network policy monitoring.""ArcSight Analytics is used to get a deeper insight and threat analysis about the network.""One of the most valuable features is the alerts.""This solution makes it easy to create use cases, and it is easy to move queries from use cases to the report to the dashboard.""Allows multiple integrations with multiple systems in a stable and flexible fashion.""The most valuable features are that you get lots of connectors, which make it easy to log in to my ASM, and lots of prebuilt roles from the company.""The ability to correlate different logs is the solution's most valuable feature."

More ArcSight Analytics Pros →

"It can easily identify unusual behavior or access patterns that may pose a potential threat, while operating as a unified reporting system.""The telemetry to capture everything and the reports are very easy to configure without having a developer degree.""On the Varonis side, technical support is phenomenal. Their ability to explain is very good, and they seem to be very knowledgeable. When I get an alert that doesn't quite make sense, they dive in there and kind of take me through it. That's very useful and very good. There are some false alerts, but it is better to have a false alert than no alert at all.""The analytics would have to be our most valuable feature.""That alerting and reporting service is great.""The 24/7 support is the most valuable feature. They have been able to answer support questions pretty quickly."

Cons
"Network integration is very crucial, and you need to have the knowledge to get it done.""ArcSight's features that can be improved include anything related to its visualization capabilities and user friendliness.""The reporting and the way it is worded needs to be improved in future releases. The dashboards are quite poorly designed.""ArcSight is not a user-friendly solution and the interface needs to be improved.""I would like to see integration with automation products, such as Phantom Automation.""The customer service could be improved, and additional integrations with other APIs could be added.""Their support team could be better.""There is a GUI, but it is not complete and lacks functionality that needs to be performed using the console."

More ArcSight Analytics Cons →

"We have Microsoft Office 365. I just saw an article today which says that they're actually getting integrated with Microsoft Office 365, which would be a useful feature. For user-based reports, log on activity, and stuff like that, it doesn't seem to really be present like Log360. That could just be my inexperience with it. I've been dealing with it for only about two and a half months.""I would like it to have cloud integration.""I'd like to see automatic updates for this solution. Currently, it's a manual process to update all the keywords""For unstructured data monitoring, it's one of the top ones, if not the top one, due to its usability.""The GUI should be more functional. There should be a process for connecting through Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc.""It is significantly complex."
