We performed a comparison between Nagios Log Server and Wazuh 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 initial setup of Nagios Log Server was easy and straightforward."
"A great feature of the solution involves its internal portal."
"The product is scalable."
"It provides an easy way to identify errors and spot issues, making troubleshooting more efficient."
"One of the most valuable features is the dashboard because the UI was effective and easy to use. The alert systems are good as well. We had no failovers and had high availability. We can search the queries fast as well in Nagios Log Server."
"I like Wazuh because it is a lot like ELK, which I was already comfortable with, so I didn't have to learn from scratch."
"If they support a solution, it is easy to do an integration."
"It offers built-in modules for file integrity and vulnerability management."
"Integrates with various open-source and paid products, allowing for flexibility in customization based on use cases."
"It has efficient SCA capabilities."
"The most valuable feature of Wazuh is the ELK for doing an investigation."
"We use it to find any aberration in our endpoint devices. For example, if someone installs a game on their company laptop, Wazuh will detect it and inform us of the unauthorized software or unintended use of the devices provided by the company."
"I like the features we use, including malware detection, inventory, detection of hidden processes, and activity logs. Inventory is probably the most important feature. It tells us when processes and packages were installed and what they are, which is helpful."
"The customization and dashboards have shortcomings and need to be improved to make the tool look more presentable."
"The configurations during initial setup could be improved. If they could be agentless, as in the case of the Ansible product, it would be better. I would like to be able to analyze the network bandwidth."
"The support could be better."
"As we are talking about a product which is open to the public, the pricing makes it challenging for us to profit off of its marketing."
"It would be beneficial for Nagios to incorporate a tool that goes beyond log management and includes features to monitor overall system health and assess the effectiveness of antivirus solutions."
"Scalability is a constraint in the on-prem version of Wazuh in terms of the volume of logs we can manage."
"While it is scalable, it can suffer from reduced latencies."
"Its user interface for sure can be improved. It is not so comfortable to use if you're looking for specific logs."
"The tool doesn't detect anomalies or new environments."
"There's not much I like about Wazuh. Other products I've used were a lot more functional and user friendly. They came with reports and use cases out of the box. We need to configure Wazuh's alerts and monitoring capabilities manually. It'd be nice if we could select from templates and presets for use cases already built and coded."
"The support team could be more responsive and provide quicker replies during our working hours in Indonesia, which would be a significant improvement."
"It would be great if there could be customization for the decoder portion."
"Some features, like alerting, are complex with Wazuh."
