"We're able to get real-timec as well as our customer networks that we're monitoring at all times."
"Its automated response feature has benefited our customer communication. Analysts feel more confident in providing timely responses."
"I like FortiSIEM because it integrates natively with our other Fortinet solutions and the Fortinet Fabric, but it also integrates with Cisco, Palo Alto and other security fabrics."
"The advanced agents used to collect logs have been most valuable. We have also made use of the advanced intelligence this solution offers."
"Whether it is a down network switch or a down router, we can get back online faster for the customers."
"I like the fact that I can aggregate multiple interfaces into a single graph. It allows me to quickly the summary of traffic for multiple devices which is helpful."
"This solution has helped us to proactively identify issues and push some of those fixes down to tier one."
"If somebody is complaining about slow networking then this solution allows us to see various ports to find out whether they are being overloaded."
"The most important feature for us is the interface statistics, because our customer normally asks us for bandwidth utilization reports. Statseeker has very descriptive transmit and receive information."
"If you need a product that's able to monitor all the ports in your environment or all the ports that you want, this is a great product to use. Statseeker is quite flexible in tailoring the product, spending time tailoring the product with you. It's fairly low maintenance. It's quite quick."

"It is fairly simple and easy to use as an all-purpose network monitor."
"They could work on their documentation. If there's anything about the solution that needs improvement, it's that. For example, documentation already is on a very high level but specifically on the CLI there are tons of features which can be fine-tuned and thousands of commands are very difficult to document. If they could make this easier, it would improve the overall solution."
"An improvement would be if FortiSIEM's licensing was based on the number of nodes rather than the EPS."
"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."
"They need to integrate better with Cisco and Palo Alto."
"FortiSIEM needs to expand its integration with third-party vendors. I don't know if Forcepoint has been added, but there were limited resources for integrating Forcepoint solutions when we implemented FortiSIEM. It integrates well with other Fortinet products and solutions from established cybersecurity companies like Palo Alto but doesn't integrate with some of the newer vendors."
"It lacks a "wizard" that shows a particular user's activity or particular circumstance. I think the interface is intimidating because there's so much information there."
"The biggest thing that could be better is a quicker response to support cases."
"Our team tried configuring MS SQL database logs with Fortinet FortiSIEM, but it did not work for some time."
"I would like to see a friendlier user interface in the administration tool."
"It may be helpful to have more options in the alerting section."
"We haven't seen an ROI."
"Configuration management: In configuration management it would be helpful if it would backup configuration files (running and start-up configuration) for devices. (Not sure if this is already available in the latest version)."
"The user interface needs to be made more intuitive."
"There is a little bit of room to improve in the alerting section to give some more options there. It's all I can think of right now off the top of my head."
"I would like to see more comprehensive reporting and alerting."
"It would be nice if they had twenty-four-hour technical support because we contact Australia and we have to wait for them to open."
