We performed a comparison between IBM Security QRadar and One Identity Safeguard based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two User Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It can analyze event logs, event security, and give a good consult."
"It has a good integration with the artificial intelligence engine of Watson."
"The threat protection network is the most valuable feature, because when you get an offense, you can actually trace it back to where it originated from, how it originated, and why."
"The scalability is awesome, because QRadar includes other solutions in the same console."
"The solution is reliable."
"I like the graphical interface. It's so good and easy."
"On the back-end, Watson helps me figure out an exact problem, sometimes giving me the result."
"The most valuable features are log monitoring, easy-to-fix issues, and problem-solving."
"There are a lot of features, so it's going to sound funny, but one of the most simplistic features, the Favorites feature, is the one we like the best. You do a full run-through of configuration to check out a server and then you can save that whole configuration as a favorite. So the next time you go in, you click on the favorite that you configured and it automatically takes you to the end so you can check the server out that much faster. It saves a lot of time..."
"I have found the most useful feature of One Identity Safeguard to be Privileged Sessions."
"It has greatly helped improve our security posture. Safeguard has an option where it will reset passwords on service accounts, then go out to those servers where that service account is running as a service and update the password on it. That makes password changes very easy. We can regularly change passwords now and are planning on making it an annual activity, where all the people who own service accounts will go in and make sure all their passwords get changed, updated, and reset."
"The Transparent Mode is the number one advantage of the product."
"One of the most important things is that it is very easy to use and install. It is also agentless, so all of the operations happen more smoothly than any other product."
"All sessions are audited and they are indexed/searchable through the GUI."
"It is generally easy-to-use and install."
"It's one of the best products we've seen. When you start looking at the functionality and use cases and usability of the product, it's straightforward. They designed this product with the end-user in mind, and they also had the sysadmin who is supporting the product in mind. They really did a nice job. Overall, it's a nice product to work with."
"I would like for them to develop a detection management solution. It does not have a detecting management solution in it, you have to buy it as it is, on top of the extended solution."
"Each module requires a separate license and a separate cost."
"The technical support can be improved a little bit, and the price could be cheaper."
"Integration could be better. They should make it easy to integrate with other solutions."
"We have had problems with networking."
"IBM QRadar User Behavior Analytics could improve machine learning use cases because they are limited and most of the use cases are rule-based. They should develop more use cases, such as in Securonix or Exabeam because they will detect a threat. Using machine learning is mainly on the correlation rules, but if you think about Exabeam or Securonix, they detect using machine learning or machine learning-based algorithms."
"The product can be a bit complex."
"There was some complexity in the initial setup due to bandwidth issues."
"I would like to see support for RDP over HTTPS so this product can be used in conjunction with the Microsoft terminal."
"Cost-wise, it is a little bit expensive, which makes it difficult to get management approval. Its price should be reduced."
"Something for One Identity to look at is having integration guidelines for how to logically group accounts."
"The deployment affects our privileged users because it takes a long time for them to request privileges, which impacts the SLA."
"We've had issues managing accounts and access to some data saved on the servers. Accounts are granted a new working certificate daily. We have an account to do it on APIs online and sync it with that. If the path changes at some point or someone changes the password, I don't know if it's from the Active Directory or what."
"Some of the out-of-the-box reporting isn't that rich. We spoke to our Safeguard reps who have acknowledged that some of the reporting features can certainly be improved and that we're not the only customer who has cited this. There are very little out-of-the-box reporting capabilities. You have to build the queries and the report. I believe in the next release they're going to be addressing this."
"The automated change of the passwords, which is now integrated, could be improved to be more flexible regarding different systems."
"Transparent mode was too cumbersome, so I don't foresee us being able to use it. On paper when we were initially talking about it, it was definitely going to be the preferred method until we realized the burden it would be on our network guys. Then, we had to step back and reevaluate what we wanted to do. That's when we changed our approach to use the RD Gateway feature."
