We performed a comparison between IBM Security QRadar and Logz.io based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Log Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."What I like about IBM QRadar User Behavior Analytics is that it uses machine learning algorithms to generate risk scoring for the user activity. I also like that it syncs with our Active Directory users, so it really has full coverage for all users in our environment."
"There are a lot of great out-of-the-box features included."
"The flexibility is good in terms of pulling log files."
"It has improved my efficiency."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I think the QDI is very good."
"The ability to transition from microscopic to macroscopic view, instantly, is very good."
"The best feature of IBM QRadar is visualization which shows you when there's a spike in the system, and this makes you realize that there's something wrong with the log."
"InsightOne is the main reason why we use LogMeIn. This is mostly because of log data that we are pushing tools and logs in general."
"We use the tool to track the dev and production environment."
"The query mechanism for response codes and application health is valuable."
"The visualizations in Kibana are the most valuable feature. It's much more convenient to have a visualization of logs. We can see status really clearly and very fast, with just a couple of clicks."
"We use the product for log collection and monitoring."
"The tool is simple to setup where it is just plug and play. The tool is reliable and we never had any performance issues."
"The other nice thing about Logz.io is their team. When it comes to onboarding, their support is incredibly proactive. They bring the brand experience from a customer services perspective because their team is always there to help you refine filters and tweak dashboards. That is really a useful thing to have. Their engagement is really supportive."
"It is massively useful and great for testing. We can just go, find logs, and attach them easily. It has a very quick lookup. Whereas, before we would have to go, dig around, and find the server that the logs were connected to, then go to the server, download the log, and attach it. Now, we can just go straight to this solution, type in the log ID and server ID, and obtain the information that we want."
"IBM is going through some problems with its resources currently making its support response time slow."
"The dashboard is pathetic and it takes a long time to perform a search."
"There are reports that I would like to generate that are either not included, or I cannot find."
"The solution is highly used here in Pakistan and in many sectors, they could improve it by having more SIEM connectors."
"The initial setup requires that you have somebody with the proper skill set, and it would help if the configuration were easier."
"We have had problems with networking."
"There could be improvements made to the UI, the user interface. Though the newer version, 7.3.2, might already have this improvement in place."
"Each module requires a separate license and a separate cost."
"I would like granularity on alerting so we can get tentative alerts and major alerts, then break it down between the two."
"I would like them to improve how they manage releases. Some of our integrations integrate specifically with set versions. Logz.io occasionally releases an update that might break that integration. On one occasion, we found out a little bit too late, then we had to roll it back."
"The price can be cheaper and they should have better monitoring."
"The solution needs to improve its data retention. It should be greater than seven days. The product needs to improve its documentation as well."
"The product needs improvement from a filtering perspective."
"When it comes to reducing our troubleshooting time, it depends. When there are no bugs in Logz.io, it reduces troubleshooting by 5 to 10 percent. When there are bugs, it increases our troubleshooting time by 200 percent or more."
"The solution needs to expand its access control and make it accessible through API."
"Capacity planning could be a little bit of a struggle."
