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 speed, as it responds in a very short time."
"It's a good platform and the very best in the current market. We looked at the Forester report from December 2022 where it was said to be a leader."
"It is the best open-source product for people working in SO, managing and analyzing logs."
"The most valuable features are the speed, detail, and visualization. It has the latest standards."
"The product has huge integration varieties available."
"The performance is good and it is faster than IBM QRadar."
"I like that it's a SIEM platform. I like that I can sell Elastic Security quickly. Elastic Security has a large community that can support users."
"ELK Logstash is easy and fast, at least for the initial setup with the out of box uses."
"The deployment is quite simple and pretty straightforward."
"The most valuable features for us are the application logs monitoring and the dashboard, which provides a single-pane view of all the ongoing activities."
"It is easier to deploy than are other SIEMs, which is great. You can also get an overview of your environment, which is very handy."
"The reports that you can run are really nice."
"It is nice to be able to monitor and to have notifications."
"We haven't had any stability issues."
"The reporting is great. Everything you need is in the report for you already."
"The solution could be improved by including XDR, remediation and Sandbox."
"I would like the process of retrieving archived data and viewing it in Kibana to be simplified."
"Their visuals and graphs need to be better."
"I think because we are a cybersecurity company, the thing that can be improved is the prebuilt tools, especially quality. Compared to its competitor, they still have fewer prebuilt security rules. Elastic Security, in terms of generating alerts, cannot group the same products into one another. Even though the alerts are the same, they still generate them one by one. So, it is very noisy in our dashboard. I would like the Elastic Security admin to group all the same alarms into one alarm so that our dashboard is not noisy."
"The process of designing dashboards is a little cumbersome in Kibana. Unless you are an expert, you will not be able to use it. The process should be pretty straightforward. The authentication feature is what we are looking for. We would love to have a central authentication system in the open-source edition without the need for a license or an enterprise license. If they can give at least a simple authentication system within a company. In a large organization, authentication is very essential for security because logs can contain a lot of confidential data. Therefore, an authentication feature for who accesses it should be there."
"With Elastic, you have to build the use cases for the specific requirement. Other products have a simple integration and more use cases to integrate out-of-the-box solutions for SIEM."
"We had issues with scalability. Logstash was not scaling and aggregation was getting delayed. We moved to Fluentd making our stack from ELK to EFK."
"Sometimes, the solution isn't the easiest to use."
"The tool should improve its scalability."
"Most times log sheets are not assigned well."
"There is room for improvement, especially in the reporting aspect. The reports are not as good as those in Splunk."
"The graphical interface could be made easier to use when you are connecting to different network equipment."
"It is not expensive compared to other solutions."
"The support needs improvement."
"Their technical support should be improved."
"It takes a little bit of time for Log360 to actually learn your environment."
"We can log in as a local user, and it's fine, but when we login with an Active Directory user, we cannot."
