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 most valuable feature is the security that it provides."
"Possibility to investigate incidents based on logs and raw packets, such as extracting files sent over the network"
"It gives the ability to investigate into network traffic in the Net and the organization what we couldn't do before."
"It's quite economical compared to other solutions in the market."
"It's fully scalable. There is no limit. Of course, the license limits per day the number of terabytes. In my opinion, it's very flexible."
"Alerting Module: It provides real-time event processing language on all the logs/packets stream for advanced alerting, i.e., using SQL LIKE statements."
"The most valuable feature is that we can create our own connectors for any application, and NetWitness provides the training and tools to do it."
"The most valuable feature is the correlation. It can report in real-time and monitor the management."
"It ensures that every interaction, pre and post-loan processing, undergoes a thorough inspection, leveraging VPN features and comprehensive security protocols."
"The most valuable feature is the Posture Assessment."
"We have reduced the number of configuration lines by 90%. We need fewer number of admins right now because of it."
"The solution enables organizations to enforce policies."
"The solution strengthens our IT posture."
"The product provides more visibility into our traffic."
"It allows us to see all our traffic to properly secure it and only allow what is needed through the firewall."
"We use the product on our Azure network firewalls."
"The tool's integration capability isn't so great."
"The user interface is a little bit difficult for new users and it needs to be improved."
"An area for improvement would be better automation and more inbuilt use cases."
"Security needs improvement."
"The product's licensing models are complex to understand. This particular area needs improvement."
"Nowadays, their support is a little subpar compared to other solutions. I rate RSA support six out of 10."
"The log system is a bit complex and has room for improvement."
"Log aggregation is an issue with this solution because there are a huge number of alerts in a single instance."
"The product needs improvement in their Secure Access Service Edge."
"There's room for improvement in terms of integration with the load balancer. It isn't like Fortinet, which has a load balancer built into its firewall. It is effortless to integrate within the load balancer-plus-firewall solution."
"The web interface is very slow, and it needs to be faster."
"The reporting part of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"There should be an option for direct integration with the Azure platform."
"There are various reports that come with the box or with the VMware, but you can only run them daily."
"Recently, they introduced their Prisma Cloud solution. Compared to the previous technologies, like Panorama, which is used for centralized firewall management, or even the individual firewalls, it's a bit challenging to integrate the traditional firewall policies into Prisma Cloud."
"The disadvantage with Palo Alto is that they don't have a cloud-based solution that includes a secure web gateway."
