The scalability of ArcSight Logger has indeed impacted our capabilities. There has been a noticeable operational impact, as we sometimes face challenges obtaining what we need from the vendor. Additionally, we must manage storage ourselves, creating file storage amounts, which can be cumbersome. Since we continuously log data, particularly 365 days a year, accessing historical data can sometimes be problematic due to data issues.

I rate the scalability a seven out of ten.

We have less than ten ArcSight Logger users in our organization. It provides a medium level of scalability.

The solution is scalable, but it depends on the license you acquire. You can expand your license as needed if you need to integrate more infrastructure. 

For us, our goal was to integrate all the infrastructure so we acquired a license with the expansion option so that we could integrate all the infrastructure that we wanted to. 

In order to expand, users should expect to pay additional fees.

We  are in the digital transformation space. This transformation means that very quickly we may need to be able to add more and more servers into our infrastructure. It was important that the solution we chose had a license that covered that capability.

It is a scalable solution. You can create tools and add more than one program to one board. A total of fifteen users are using ArcSight Logger at the moment.

It's pretty much scalable. You can just add remote connectors and you can add remote log types. One of the best parts of the product is FlexConnector. Implementing them is easy to configure. 

We have twenty users using this solution that mostly compromise of information security guys and cybersecurity. There are IT infrastructure engineers like Windows Unix engineers and some Talco fraud prevention specialists.

We have two guys operating this solution in these three countries so we require two to three people to maintain the whole thing.

Scaling this product is painful.

Staff-wise, we're not very big but scale-wise, we're right across the whole world. We operate in EMEA, Mexico, and APAC.

To scale it, it again comes down to how are you using it. You need to identify the areas which are taking too much load or requiring too many resources from the logger. Area identification needs to be there. Once you do that, then it is easier to scale.

If you are not looking at the right place, then it would be difficult to scale because the bigger the organization, the bigger is the architecture of ArcSight Logger. This is because you need to have multiple loggers so that ArcSight Logger can withhold all the data that I want to feed into it.

We had 20 to 30 users who used ArcSight Logger logger on a daily basis.

The original Connector Appliance peaked its events-per-second limit much sooner than anticipated and required us to purchase another, and significantly larger, appliance. The issue was self-inflicted as we discovered more use cases when adding new logs and log types.

Scalability is good if your need is high enough, but for smaller cases it isn't so good.

From what I can see, it scales well. It does require a pretty hefty baseline, but the more system resources you give it, the better it seems to perform.

Well before the last version I think it was a little bit difficult, but now with the new version that is integrated with the ESM it's little bit more efficient.

When you export a large number of events then it gets slower.

We have about fifty users for this solution. We do not yet have plans to increase usage.
