We performed a comparison between Entuity and Fortinet FortiSIEM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of Entuity is network mapping and information. When clicking on a particular location it can automatically survey the connectivity diagram for us. We can arrange this icon in any kind of formats, such as ring or mesh. The networking mapping can show the components and interconnectivity with the help of IP addresses and NetFlow."
"Event management and the geographical Google API-based network topology are the most valuable features of Entuity."
"The setup was very simple and took about an hour."
"One of the most valuable features of Entuity is the user interface."
"We find the SurePath component of this solution to be very valuable, as it gives us the path to whatever we are configuring."
"The best thing about Entuity is that it's easy to use. It's user-friendly. It's intuitive and easy to customize as per your needs."
"I particularly like the theme and the dashboard that they have brought in this version. In the previous version, there was only a simple screen. There wasn't any dashboard. It was a simple view, but now, they have brought in a dashboard that gives the fields for the ops as well. They can get the data they want to see in a single place."
"The initial setup of Entuity is easy and the full process took approximately 30 minutes."
"We have many application systems, and I can set up Fortinet FortiSIEM for users to monitor their systems."
"Real-time monitoring makes life quite easy for me."
"We're able to get real-timec as well as our customer networks that we're monitoring at all times."
"The most valuable feature is the anomaly-reporting alarms."
"The solution’s IP database is awesome."
"The CMDB and the device discovery features are most valuable."
"I like FortiSIEM because it integrates natively with our other Fortinet solutions and the Fortinet Fabric, but it also integrates with Cisco, Palo Alto and other security fabrics."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard. CMDB database collects data from a lot of pre-configured devices."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Entuity currently has APIs, but they are not straightforward. They are not flexible if an external system wants to communicate with Entuity or create an integration that is not available out of the box. Its APIs can be flexible so that they can be utilized for external integrations that are not available out of the box."
"In the most recent versions, Entuity has removed the Explorer navigation feature. This was very useful, and Entuity would be improved by restoring it."
"We would like the backup element of this solution to be improved as, at present, it is very limited and does not have much scope for customization."
"A typical user might want to see even more depth to the standard reporting and ease of integration."
"It should support IPAM or IP Address Management. When it comes to the network, IP Address Management is a feature for which we have to use a different solution. When we are managing networks, if IPAM also becomes a part of this, we do not have to look for a separate solution."
"The configuration of the logging could be improved because if someone deleted any note or inventory, or some change to the inventory, we are not able to identify which user or which administrator modifies these details. For example, there should be read-only locks on maps to prevent their deletion. This way people can only read and cannot delete that particular map."
"If we want to modify the calculation matrix or equation, we have to raise a professional service."
"Entuity can improve the fetching of device configuration. The solution uses scripts and I could not understand them or find any recourses on the internet to learn about the language that is used in the script. It could be more user-friendly and the device configuration management could be enhanced."
"I would like to see more integration with other platforms."
"I would like to see easier implementation in the future."
"When compared with some competitors, in terms of performance, the CPU and RAM requirements and the capability of coordination with development all need some improvement."
"The nodes on our network did not comply with the SIEM solution. They use a different format parking log."
"Creating parsers to try make unknown events or currently unsupported devices produce meaningful information is extremely cumbersome."
"We expect the latest patch from Fortinet FortiSIEM to give the ability to work with signature files."
"Does not have load-sharing or high-availability, and these are important things to implement. I can do the same things in another way, but not naturally having these features makes it complicated."
"We need to see incident reports about the event log, without events from the administrator or through human interaction."
