We performed a comparison between Check Point Security Management and ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Having the possibility to use Smart Event to check for threats on a broader scale helps after a security incident and also makes it easier to check - instead of looking through different logs."
"Key features include the ability to include logs for everything that you do for admin. Also, it has web filtering built in and VPN."
"The most valuable feature for me is Identity Awareness."
"I love the URL filtering as well as the identification capabilities which link with the Active Directory and work for me even with bandwidth regulation. These allow me to select to whom to do what, and when."
"Check Point Security Management has a great feature that allows you to automate the request of the automated server."
"The company uses software called Harmony. Check Point integrates nicely, whether on an endpoint or mobile device. It integrates well with the firewall and can give me reports that I can check without going to an online portal."
"The management API is the best new feature for me. It allows us to further automate our customers' automated server ordering."
"Each department can easily share data with the management without fear of data compromise."
"I have made use of technical support and am certainly very satisfied with them."
"ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is easy to gather reports to give to management. My supervisor has access to the solution and he enjoys the graphs."
"The reporting features are noteworthy, as they provide templates that streamline the process of generating reports"
"The user interface is very good."
"It is stable."
"It's one of the easiest products. It's very simple to use."
"The log management has helped to improve my organization."
"The initial setup is straightforward"
"The management API can be further developed so that all functions offered by the dashboard are also available via the API (for example, Network Topology)."
"Even though the platform is simple, and creating security policies is a fairly quick task, creating a bulk of policies at once (ie. for a migration) could be a useful tool. This is probably possible through scripting, however, having an easy-to-use "import CSV" button would be beneficial."
"The migration from R77 Manager to R80 is a major upgrade. It's not very easy to do. There should be some kind of Wizard for a direct upgrade from the R77 to the R80. There should be an easy way for the customers to do the upgrade."
"If the SmartView monitor can be integrated in the R80.40 and R81 versions, that would be ideal in understanding the trends and graphs of how traffic is observed hitting the different Check Point Firewall Gateways that the Security Management controls."
"The web administration tool that allows administration in the browser must be developed even more."
"In my experience, the place they can improve the most is in the technical support where I have had some serious problems that could not be solved in time due to a lack of knowledge of the assigned engineer."
"While the console and administration work well, they have to work on performance since it consumes a lot of CPU and memory."
"Among the things that I would like in the future is for the solution to have its application on Android and iOS, as many of the administrators have adopted remote administration positions due to what has happened since the pandemic. This would help us to have an easier and simpler administration."
"There isn't good security integration when it comes to cybersecurity. The correlation of logs isn't so simple."
"Support could improve to make the solution better."
"There's a lot to improve in terms of connectivity. Currently, we're utilizing it across various infrastructures and environments, including others' cloud. However, connecting it to our infrastructure and integrating it with some of our SMAX solutions poses difficulties."
"The first tier of customer service and support is not great."
"The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier."
"What I'd like to see as an improvement to ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is for it to be more AI-driven. Having more automation would also make the solution better."
"The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities."
"It may not be as easy to use as Splunk."
