Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Easy alert setup which enables different alerts in different categories.""It gives us the opportunity to generate notifications based upon rules that get triggered, and the rules could be specific to PCI, HIPAA, GIBA, NIST, and so forth.""FortiSIEM sends an email or SMS notifications to admins when there are significant incidents. It's a highly efficient way of responding to incidents.""The seamless integration with FortiGate is the solution's most valuable aspect.""Fortinet FortiSIEM provides good detection against advanced threats.""We have many application systems, and I can set up Fortinet FortiSIEM for users to monitor their systems.""The stability is very reliable. It offers very good performance.""FortiSIEM's best features are the dashboards and customization."

"The alerting feature has improved our organization. We can create multiple alerts and refine them to how we need to use them.""Device monitoring is a good tool of this solution.""The solution is scalable.""The setup was easy.""Device backups are smooth and managed centrally, with a nice dashboard, so you can quickly see the status.""The features we found most valuable in ManageEngine OpManager are the probe server and reporting because they're pretty good features.""The detections are fine when they work.""The most valuable feature is the monitoring alerts. The administrators are immediately notified and can do the required action immediately. This is the feature we value and use the most."

Cons
"The solution needs to do a better job with third party integration. Right now, that's lacking on the solution. I specifically am talking about the AWS environment. Most of the AWS environment products do not have that capability to integrate.""The interface needs some improvements because it's a bit cumbersome when you're trying to view items. It takes some time to get used to. Additionally, sometimes the scrolling does not work.""Fortinet FortiSIEM could improve by having better integration and extensions. This would benefit by allowing us to give more rules.""Our team tried configuring MS SQL database logs with Fortinet FortiSIEM, but it did not work for some time.""The challenge I face with Fortinet FortiSIEM is the lack of support.""The product does not have Security Orchestration and Automation Response, I would recommend adding this feature.""It's difficult to integrate unsupported devices with FortiSIEM compared to QRadar. It's easier to integrate and develop processes in QRadar. It's harder to develop a custom process in FortiSIEM.""The biggest thing that could be better is a quicker response to support cases."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM Cons →

"The main area for improvement for ManageEngine OpManager is its performance.""It would be great if there were some sort of artificial intelligence feature which would help us make improvements in the network once we find an issue, and do it automatically.""You cannot resolve 100 percent of the issues yourself. You would need to reach out to the support. It needs to be cheaper.""We get a lot of false alerts.""OpManager is slow but that just might be the server we have it on. I don't think that's the problem but I don't do the server. But it is slow. When you're interacting with it, it could be more nimble and could be faster.""This product is little bit slow sometimes. It may be that we need to change the configuration to improve performance.""We had some stability issues at the outset that have since been resolved.""ManageEngine OpManager could improve the default dashboards that are available. We are not able to customize them easily and they do not give us the information we need unless we customize them. You need to have the technical knowledge to be able to do it, the customization should be easier."
