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."The ability to browse logs from multiple sources at the same time really speeds up root cause analysis."
"It has the ability to alert and track logs from different sources."
"We can save logs as plain text."
"The most valuable feature of Rapid7 InsightOps is the search functionality."
"Integration of InsightOps with other tools, especially SIEM solutions, has generally improved operational efficiency."
"The asset management of nodes has been a large help in terms of being able to track applications with more detail and have changes made being monitored into one source."
"This is a USM, so being able to get all the features under one roof makes it a good product with good new features."
"SIEM log collection is great, and all of the rules that support updates with maintenance."
"The best thing about AlienVault USM is it being a “Jack-of-All Trades” solution. It provides SIEM, HIDS/NIDS, FIM, NetFlow, Asset Management, Vulnerability Management, etc., under one USM platform. None of the commercial SIEM vendors like ArcSight, McAfee, etc., can boast of such a diverse feature set."
"What I find the most valuable about USM Anywhere is its compliance. It shows a list of all the administrators logged on and does it quite well. There are no whistles and bells, it's reliable and simple to use."
"It has streamlined log aggregation and analysis to meet organizational and regulatory needs."
"Using the communication within the security device, it is easier to create plugins."
"On any given day I could give you a different answer regarding the most valuable features of the product. The feature that is most important is the fact that it has a lot of features, that it's not just a log collection and correlation system, that it has a lot of other components built in. The bundle of features is really the killer feature."
"Improvement is needed in the dashboard of InsightOps, especially for less technical users."
"Since I used the beta, improvements are to be expected. The dashboard options could have been clearer, but I believe it is more a problem with the limited documentation available at the time."
"The solution takes a little bit of time when we load the website for the first time."
"Rapid7 InsightOps could improve by making the search query better. There are times when the search query is broken and it does not find anything."
"There are a few things I would like to do with a few more complex queries which I am not able to do right now, because it is a SaaS solution."
"The solution is a bit complicated. It could be simplified quite a bit."
"Different functions to customize reports should be added."
"The AT&T AlienVault USM is okay, but the relational database is not very good for large amounts of data. For example, many logs cannot be processed. It has been very slow for the queries and some data which are large, it is not very good in this case."
"It was easy on PoC, but when we got to the product it was different story. We had to learn the product again and got feeling that the PoC was a different product."
"Sometimes the log is unclear, and the report is a bit ambiguous."
"The GUI needs to improve because it's not user-friendly."
"I've been using it just for my own personal upskilling in terms of how the product works. At the moment, it is pretty straightforward and simple, and it is working how it is supposed to. The feedback would come once it is deployed to customer sites. They'll be using it on a more frequent basis, and that's when the feedback would come in terms of the areas in which they're facing issues or are looking for simplicity."
"The vulnerability reporting needs to have options to be able to sort or customize the output."
