Find out in this report how the two Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This solution offers extensive customization options, making it possible to adapt it precisely to their requirements."
"The solution is easy to use and user-friendly."
"We find the solution to be stable."
"Easy alert setup which enables different alerts in different categories."
"To add workers and even collectors is pretty easy."
"We have many application systems, and I can set up Fortinet FortiSIEM for users to monitor their systems."
"The seamless integration with FortiGate is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"The advanced agents used to collect logs have been most valuable. We have also made use of the advanced intelligence this solution offers."
"What my organization likes best about SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is its easy deployment. It's also well-integrated in terms of monitoring because my organization also uses a SolarWinds solution for monitoring. You can connect SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer directly to that monitoring tool to get information. My organization also finds the default graphs that appear before the configuration in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer very useful."
"What people found most valuable in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is its report customization feature."
"NTA's most valuable feature is traffic analysis and visibility."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The monitoring is perfect, showing you the details for the utilization of resources and network bandwidth."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to look for any increases in bandwidth over time so that we can plan before it becomes critical."
"I like that it is able to monitor multiple devices and it's vendor-agnostic."
"The integration with other SolarWinds products is good."
"Creating parsers to try make unknown events or currently unsupported devices produce meaningful information is extremely cumbersome."
"The product does not have Security Orchestration and Automation Response, I would recommend adding this feature."
"Areas for improvement would be the ease of use and the integration with Fortinet's own products."
"Customer support service could be better."
"The support of the product changed recently, and I don't think it's for the better. They should work to improve the support they offer to clients."
"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."
"Our customers are noticing configuration available in the GUI interface and I think that they should be equal."
"Its training can be improved. Its price also needs to be improved."
"I'm expecting to see a little bit more artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms. They need a bit more sophistication in that."
"It is a scalable solution, but it is costly to scale. Therefore, I would rate scalability at eight out of ten."
"It does not flow. It cannot do our metric performance monitoring. So it is very limited. They can do it but in a very limited fashion. It is only good for SNMP-based alerts."
"One area that we struggle with is the price. Because the price of this solution is so high, we are largely unable to introduce it into the local market, and only the banking sector has the means to afford it."
"I would like to see more training videos and additional material for learning how to use this solution."
"It is very slow to pick the dynamics of the network."
"Technical support could be improved with quicker response times."
"It's scalable, but it could be simplified because it's not completely easy."
