We performed a comparison between ArcSight Logger and Graylog 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 machine learning is a good feature."
"We haven't had any crashes or bugs. It is stable."
"It's a brilliant log collection tool, and it can handle hundreds of thousands of servers in a single shot to ingest the data."
"The solution provides information about the risk factors."
"It provides in-depth information on business activities once we log into the system."
"Some of the most valuable features I really appreciate are the performance, how quick the solution is, and how easy it is to create a query."
"The most valuable feature is the search capability, which is simple to use."
"The technical support team is good...It is a scalable solution."
"Message forwarding through the in-built module."
"The best feature of Graylog is the Elasticsearch integration. We can integrate and we can run filters, such as an event of interest, and those logs we can send to any SIEM tool or as an analytic. Additionally, there are clear and well-documented implementation instructions on their website to follow if needed."
"One of the most valuable features is that you are able to do a very detailed search through the log messages in the overview."
"The product is scalable. The solution is stable."
"Storing logs in Elasticsearch means log retrieval is extremely fast, and full text search is available by default."
"We run a containerized microservices environment. Being able to set up streams and search for errors and anomalies across hundreds of containers is why a log aggregation platform like Graylog is valuable to us."
"The build is stable and requires little maintenance, even compared to some extremely expensive products."
"This had increased productivity for the dev and support teams, because we are directly notifying them."
"In the next release, I want to see more intelligence."
"ArcSight has been sold two or three times, and the quality has decreased."
"Using the ArcSight Logger dashboard is not particularly intuitive or efficient, so it is important to be trained in its use."
"We have had problems with archiving."
"The solution should make it possible to integrate network analysis features."
"The initial setup was a little bit complex."
"The integration with other systems could be improved."
"I would rate the technical support only 5 out of 10. The technical support is not satisfactory."
"There should be some user groups and an auto sign-in feature."
"More complex visualizations and the ability to execute custom Elasticsearch queries would be great."
"I would like to see some kind of visualization included in Graylog."
"More customization is always useful."
"Its scalability gets complicated when we have to update or edit multiple nodes."
"It would be great if Graylog could provide a better Python package in order to make it easier to use for the Python community."
"Graylog needs to improve their authentication. Also, the fact that Graylog displays logs from the top down is just ridiculous."
"Since container orchestration systems are popular and Graylog fits the niche well, perhaps they could officially support running in docker containers on Kubernetes as a StatefulSet as a use case. That way, the declarative nature of Kubernetes config files would document their best case deployment scenario-"
