"The most valuable feature of Wazuh is the ELK for doing an investigation."
"Elastic Observability is reactive rather than proactive. It should act as an ITSM tool and be able to create tickets and alerts on Jira."
"Elastic Observability needs to improve the retrieval of logs and metrics from all the instances."
