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 interface of the solution is good."
"Log Insight correlates with the VMware product log. It can assemble the logs you want, making it easier to find the output, incident, or keyword you want to search."
"One of the things I like about it is its interface. When it comes to generating reports on VMs and stuff, it's very quick. This is very handy for the technical team, who need to generate reports quickly. So that's really good."
"It is a highly stable solution...It is a highly scalable solution."
"The setup and installation are very easy."
"We are using it because we have a VMware product. It has its own built in dashboards for VMware products, and that's a good thing."
"The trace log is the solution's most valuable feature. It's very helpful in troubleshooting problems."
"It is very scalable and can handle a large workload."
"The most valuable features are the modules and metrics."
"It offers built-in modules for file integrity and vulnerability management."
"Wazuh's most beneficial features for our security needs are flexibility, built-in rules, integration capabilities, and documentation."
"Wazuh has very flexible and robust features."
"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."
"Wazuh automatically scans the host for CIS benchmarks for the latest updates and vulnerabilities and gives a host score. It provides a percentage of perceived risk due to of non patches or any missing patches on that work."
"Wazuh is simple to use for PCI compliance."
"The product’s interface is intuitive."
"Documentation is lacking, including some guide as to how to use the expressions. It is not clear how to look for a log, for example. Some examples in the documentation might be helpful. I think that VMware had good documentation, but it's no longer hosted. The documentation is not as easy to understand as it was before."
"From an improvement perspective, the tool needs to be made more user-friendly."
"Technical support should be improved."
"The solution is a very good tool, but it has a lot of limitations. One of the main issues is around how you define your retention policy, for instance, in Log Insight. It doesn't have it. You can't define a log retention policy. You also can't define the destination or location for your logs. All of the logs are in one index or one bucket."
"The product's price falls on the higher end of the spectrum, making it an area of concern."
"The monitoring landscape is getting bigger. When it comes to infrastructure monitoring, we need more visibility. VMware needs to integrate more related applications and third-party products. That would make it more appealing to an audience beyond the VMware team."
"The dashboard needs to be improved because this is what I need to monitor my infrastructure."
"Log Insight should be better at dealing with audits and security logs. We use another product called QRadar for that."
"Integration with Vyara could be better."
"Since it's an open-source tool, scalability is the main issue."
"I have yet to find the same capability in Wazuh to get logs from different sources into the system"
"The deployment is a bit complex."
"Log data analysis could be improved. My IT team has been looking for an alternative because they want better log data for malware detection. We are also doing more container implementation also, so we need better container security, log data analysis, auditing and compliance, malware detection, etc."
"The tool doesn't detect anomalies or new environments."
"Its user interface for sure can be improved. It is not so comfortable to use if you're looking for specific logs."
"The implementation is very complex."
