You can also get an overview of your environment, which is very handy.""It is nice to be able to monitor and to have notifications.""You can have all of the logs from servers to network and it gets sent out to the correct owners. This is very helpful.""The reports that you can run are really nice.""It basically helps us. We have to stay in compliance with certain issues with some of our customers. We have to have these types of tools in place for protecting our network and our data. We're in the aerospace industry, so we have a lot of defense contracts. So, all those guys will make sure that we're protecting their information, and it does a good job in that aspect.""The solution could be improved by including XDR, remediation and Sandbox.""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.""The reporting is great. Everything you need is in the report for you already."
