"The single dashboard is a valuable feature."
"It has definitely helped us improve our mean time to resolution on network issues."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the logging, keeping threats under control, and keeping our data and environment secure."
"Most of the engineers I've worked with have been really good. Very knowledgeable and easy to work with."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is data hoarding because it catches threats on a frequent basis that we had no idea of."
"It has improved our internal knowledge of what's going on with the network, and that's helpful."
"This product alleviates the day-to-day headaches for us, in regards to metrics."
"It provides good visibility to the customers. People are still evaluating it, but it provides visibility and helps them to take action to remediate and mitigate the issues that are highlighted on the dashboard. It has good integration with the Cisco switching platform."
"It's a dependable product that is able to pinpoint where we have vulnerabilities if they occur."
"NetMon's best feature is traffic analysis."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The analytics feature is the most valuable feature."
"Visibility is a valuable feature, the ability to see even if the traffic is not going into the firewall"
"It has a very strong artificial intelligence engine."
"The protocols with which you see the traffic for a particular website that a client has in their environment, for example, are valuable. We can monitor whether the traffic is up to the mark or whether they need to add more bandwidth. Also, we can see if we're able to get real-time environment data as well. The customization dashboard is really good. LogRhythm NetMon has its own in-built dashboards which are helpful in guiding customization."
"The most valuable feature is the log, which can be analyzed by our SIEM solution."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"The technical support needs improvement."
"It's too complicated to install, when starting out."
"I would like the search page available with Cisco Stealthwatch to be more intuitive. The previous release was better than the current one for the UI."
"The initial setup is complex, as there is a lot to configure."
"Cisco Stealthwatch can improve by having bundled packages for popular add-ons. It would be a lot easier for people implementing it, have let's say a better way to use the product."
"It's a good solid solution but integration with Network Access Control products with Cisco ISE would be good."
"We've had problems with element licensing costs so scalability is a concern."
"I think the interface is a little lacking. The interface seems like it just needs to be modernized. It's been the same interface now, ever since I've seen it probably four years ago."
"The ability to be natively integrated into Port Aggregator would be beneficial because it would reduce just one more component that's needed in order to have that type of view."
"There is an issue with tunneling in relation to how the connectivity is established between the end devices and where NetMon is installed. On the console, I often observe that there's a difference of a few seconds or maybe a minute, and this lag time should not be there."
"LogRhythm NetMon's pricing model is an area of concern that should be made a little bit cheaper in comparison to the other players in the market currently."
"Sometimes it's hard to find the network devices' self-audit logs."
"Some of the automated tasks we can perform on QRadar cannot be performed on LogRhythm because the solution has limitations."
"I would like to see better integration with multiple products. Integration is not something that is readily available for most of the products."
"The training for this product is not very good and needs to be improved."
"Could use a topology diagram which would help get an exact visual."
