Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, CrowdStrike, Securonix Solutions and others in Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR)."It is an effective solution in terms of performance and functionalities."
"Its ability to deliver a substantial amount of security intelligence greatly enhances and optimizes our security operations program."
"It operates on a single, extensive database which enables it to excel in detecting threats and anomalies across the network and endpoints, delivering a highly effective and comprehensive security solution."
"The most valuable features of Cortex XSIAM are the machine learning used to identify threats, the complexity of the environment of products, and efficiency."
"The product has plenty of features and capabilities."
"We can easily monitor many things using this tool."
"It is very stable. We have not faced interruptions in the past four and a half years."
"The solution is easy to use, manage, and review all incidents."
"I really like the feature we have with the logs, that if there are any credit card numbers being used, like a PII, you can just use rejects and you can mask it. This is a really good feature in QRadar."
"The most valuable feature currently is security behaviors and the pdf files."
"It integrates very easily with other solutions. The solution is flexible. We can add anything to it, as it is a good companion to other tools."
"The product can scale."
"The platform isn't very developer-friendly and it should provide more flexibility and ease."
"The support could be a bit faster."
"The solution’s pricing and technical support could be improved."
"Further integration capabilities with various other software products that can seamlessly tie into Cortex XSIAM would be advantageous."
"The released patch quality is poor. IBM should test those patches on their side, not on the client's side."
"I would suggest QRadar release any documentation or give an online demo, like videos on YouTube. It would increase publicity and public appeal."
"The solution lacks some maturity."
"In terms of additional features, a mobile app would be nice. Also, the reporting is definitely okay, but you have to make sure that everybody with different roles can understand it. There is room for improvement in the reporting."
"I would also like to see more integration with other vendors. IBM doesn't integrate well with products from China, like Huawei. Many Middle Eastern customers are switching to Huawei from American vendors like Cisco because of the price. In most RFPs, Huawei wins because it costs less."
"The dashboards are all legacy and old."
"The implementation and configuration are not easy."
"We would like to see better instrumentation for debugging changes in the log flow."
