Find out in this report how the two User Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is suitable for large companies with critical infrastructure. For our clients, robustness, availability at a high level, and the level of references and experiences connected to the solution are important."
"The event collector, flow collector, PCAP and SOAR are valuable."
"A nice benefit is when we go to the process of selecting our youth cases, they go by building blocks. QRadar links it to building blocks."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with the GRD, for banking."
"The solution is quite flexible."
"We have the abilities to monitor each instance which originates on the process along with the performance of each department."
"QRadar, Splunk, and ArcSight are SIEM solutions with built-in AI/ML features. They can do the complete investigation and alert the admin about what is happening. They can also do the root cause analysis. There are many other features that come with QRadar. It has a more granular log, so you can integrate with various non-IT as well as IT-based components. You can get unstructured data to the SIEM data, and you can identify more what is happening in the network or what is happening in the central head office. You can also identify what is happening between your remote offices. You can also use it to identify what the users in the field are doing on their devices and how things are moving. From the integration point of view, it is very centric. It gives complete control centrally. If a user is not connected to the system, whenever he comes online, we can see the policy updates over the Internet, and we can ensure that the data that is supposed to be protected is protected."
"The features that I have found most valuable are that it is very stable, easy to get going, and easy to manage. It is also easy to review all incidents."
"The product is at the forefront of auto-remediation networking. It's great."
"This is a good security product."
"This intelligent user behavior analytics package is easy to configure and use while remaining feature filled."
"The solution is fast, flexible, and easy to use."
"We are really pleased with Splunk and its features. It would be practically impossible to function without it. To provide a general overview of the system, it's important to note that the standard log files are currently around 250 gigabytes per day. It would be impossible to manually walk through these logs by hand, which is why automation is essential."
"It's easily scalable."
"The solution is extremely scalable. Our customers are regularly scaling up after installing Splunk."
"The most valuable features are its data aggregation and the ability to automatically identify a number of threats, then suggest recommended actions upon them."
"I would like to see a more user-friendly product."
"The user interface needs improvement."
"I think that the search speed of this solution could be improved."
"It is very difficult to activate all of the network equipment, and it would help if it were made easier."
"The solution should enhance its capabilities of UEBA and AI/ML tech modeling."
"I don't look at only the features and benefits; I also look at the price. It is a bit expensive when compared with other solutions. It is expensive for specific deployment topologies, and the decision-makers go for alternatives like ArcSight. It should also have more AI features or capabilities for better threat intelligence. The more it uses machine learning, the better would be the dashboard, analytics, and other things."
"Needs better visualization options beyond the time series charts and a few other options that they have."
"The product can be a bit complex."
"The initial setup was complex because some of the configurations that we required needed customization."
"If the price was lowered and the setup process was less complex, I would consider rating it higher."
"It would be good if the solution had an analytics tool that allowed us to analyze the data without writing specific queries."
"They should work to add more built-in correlation searches and more use cases based on worldwide customer experiences. They need more ready-made use cases."
"It could be easier to scale the solution if you are using it on-premise, not in the cloud."
"In the future I would like to see simplified statistics and analytical threats."
"I would like improved downward integration with other tools such as McAfee and other GCP solutions."
"We want to have an automated system for bot hunting that enables us to detect anomalies predictively based on historical data. It would be helpful if Splunk included process mining as an alternative option. We have a threat workflow, but it would be useful if we could supplement that with some process mining capabilities over time."
