We performed a comparison between NetWitness Platform and Zabbix based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Splunk, Wazuh, Datadog and others in Log Management."It gives the ability to investigate into network traffic in the Net and the organization what we couldn't do before."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to write rules and triggers for network communication, and then being able to investigate based on that."
"What we are mainly using are the RSA concentrator, RSA Decoder, Archiver, Broker, and Log Decoder."
"The product has a user-friendly interface and a valuable feature for threat intelligence integration."
"The product's initial setup phase was not at all difficult."
"The most valuable features are the packet inspection and the automated incident response."
"I can have enterprise security, email security, next generation firewall security log, HIDS and NIDS logs, etc. all on the same dashboard. It makes it easy to pinpoint or correlate our server to this. I can find out if there is lateral movement. This is the biggest advantage of this solution."
"The newer 11.5 version that my team is using has found it to have good mapping."
"Setup was straightforward. Initial deployment took two or three months."
"The performance and bandwidth are valuable features."
"It has an intuitive UI with beautiful graphs and customizable maps."
"SNMP monitoring, source discovery, and alert triggering are most valuable."
"The integration capabilities and APIs are the best part."
"It's a flexible solution."
"It can send messages to our ticketing system."
"Templates are good. We download them from the official Zabbix site or the community. If the information we need isn't available, we create custom templates based on client requirements."
"Security needs improvement."
"The system looks like it is a mix of a bunch of different systems, and nothing looked like it was quite together."
"Log aggregation is an issue with this solution because there are a huge number of alerts in a single instance."
"Nowadays, their support is a little subpar compared to other solutions. I rate RSA support six out of 10."
"The threat detection capability and centralizing and upgrading capability need to be improved. The threat alert capability needs to be improved as well because there is some lag time at present. They need to work on their database search too."
"The documentation is not as structured as I would like, personally, and I think that it can be improved and made much more user-friendly."
"The solution should have more integration capabilities with different platforms."
"The system architecture is complex and sometimes it’s hard to troubleshoot potential problems."
"The dashboard and the graph section could be a little bit more professional."
"When using this solution in enterprise monitoring, you are able to see that there are some issues with equipment that could be causing a problem. Sometimes you want to make a root command that you do not want to be executed automatically. What we have tried to do is open an SSH session directly from the solution's interface but it is not possible."
"The user interface could be better."
"The networking monitor is not too easy to work with."
"The user web interface is a little bit too basic, we need to link Zabbix to Grafana to have more options, such as graphs and charts. The interface needs to be improved. Additionally, there could be better integration with Grafana API."
"The event correlation could be better."
"Zabbix technical support is sold separately."
"There are some features of Zabbix that are not good for reporting. The DX Spectrum solution has better reporting."
