I would rate the scalability of USM Anywhere an eight out of ten. We are a smaller company and about a dozen people use the solution. It scales for us and we never fill out the data allocation we paid for.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

We were a small organization of 250 people when we started with maybe 150 machines out there server-wise. We grew to about 1,500 employees through the acquisition of four or five different businesses, so it was effortless to scale.

You need to add more licenses and data for law collection. Other than that, it was easy to work with from that perspective, and the AlienVault salespeople are accommodating.

It is scalable. It was a large deployment. We had more than 1,000 employees, but it was only used by the information security team to monitor the security events and logs. We had 18 users, but we had integrated more than 250 servers and network devices with it.

We have tried to scale it with a partner, but one of the limitations is that we do not want to scale it if the on-premises is coming to the end of life. We have to manage our budget to ensure the business does not fail. In terms of assets, we have about 100 assets, and it is not difficult to maintain.

The scalability of AT&T AlienVault USM is good.

We have five IT administrators that use it. We plan to increase the usage in the future.

It's a cloud-based solution so it's easy to scale.

I rate AlienVault USM eight out of 10 for scalability.

The solution is cloud-based and hybrid. A server is put into a customer's environment to collect information and send it to the cloud. Both the server installed in the customer's environment and the cloud solution are scalable. The solution has rapid elasticity and all the check marks a cloud-based solution needs to scale. It is definitely scalable.

There are currently 19 users in our company. I think over time we have plans to increase our usage of this solution, but as an MSP, we have clients with different requirements or needs, so we might pick a different solution because it's a better fit.  

It is cloud-based, so it is very scalable. It really depends on how many devices they have in their environment. Our customers are more mid-sized companies, so it fits what we need.

We don't have a lot of clients using this SIEM. Usually, a client is interested in something like this to help them with their auditing. So, we don't have a lot of customers using it right now. Probably in the near future, its usage will be increased in terms of the customers requesting it from a security standpoint.

No, not yet. We are growing at a rapid pace and eventually will need more sensors, but I believe that will be a painless upgrade.

It has great scale. We have brought it into several publicly traded global organizations, with thousands of users. The users are anything from a CCO down to a network administrator.

For a large deployment like that, the number of our staff required depends on a few things but, generally, it would take one to three people. It also requires about three people for maintenance. Their roles would likely be anyone who is leading or managing an InfoSec team.

It is pretty scalable for small/medium businesses. It starts to fade at enterprise. It is possible, but you will definitely run into limitations.

We have had no issues with scalability at all. It's been seamless. We have only three or four users on our DevOps team, but we're getting information from all over. Of course, many downstream people benefit from the work that we do, but only about four people actually log in and use it. 

Scales well, no on-prem requirement other than 1 sensor per network and these are cost-effective. AlienVault handles the performance and scalability for you for the backend.

We have been adding more servers, and it has been working. We have run out of storage space once or twice, so we had to check and choose which logs that we needed to minimize this problem.

The only issue I have run into with scalability is the 1TB limit for raw log storage. When you collect as many logs as I do you need additional space to keep logs for compliance.

AT&T AlienVault USM is scalable and is based on the tiers offered. The tiers are from 250GB to 15 TB and more. This is the monthly log ingestion storage and is scalable to the next tier if more devices are added. This is a subscription model that supports 15 days, 30 days, and 90 days of online storage with little difference in pricing. The beauty of the solution is that they offer unlimited cold storage post the online storage duration. That can be retrieved within a day's time.

AT&T AlienVault USM is a scalable solution, especially because we have the option to use more sensors, and we have an average scale of log space for log rotation.

The solution is quite easy to scale. You just need to install the standard solution. You don't have to change the whole installation. In the case of the cloud deployment version, you only need to add sensors. In either case, you need to have the correct licenses, however, it's quite simple to accomplish.

The scalability of this solution is exceptional. I believe it's very reliable and dependable.

It is easy to scale. It comes with all features, as opposed to separate individual modules. To my knowledge, you can scale it for your organization as and when there is a requirement or the organization grows. So, in terms of scalability, there is no problem. After you get it up and running, as the organization grows, the engines will be able to pick up that information.

It is really good for medium and large companies, but it can also be used for small organizations. Instead of deploying it to a small organization, you could provide a service where it is not on the customer site, and you basically link into your nodes for small customers. So, you install it for medium and large customers, and for small customers, you install it on your premise, and then you sell the individual features that they may request.

The solution doesn't scale well if you are talking about enterprises using it. However, for our purposes, we've never had an issue with this. Larger companies might. We do intend to continue to use the solution and potentially increase usage.

It's very scalable.

It scales reasonably well. There is a scalability plan for it. There is a way to add additional collection components, what they call Sensors, and then scale up the central platform. At this point, I don't believe it will scale to the very high-end. It is not a large, global enterprise-type product. It's more of a small-enterprise-and-below product.

No issues with scalability. We're only a company of 50 people, so I haven't had any issues whatsoever yet.

So far, no issues with scalability. We see that too many logs are being sent out, but you have to work out logging what you need.

No issues with scalability.

No.

Working well with everything we have sent to it.

We have not encountered any scalability issues. You just add another sensor; pretty easy.

There have not been any issues with scalability.

We have not encountered any scalability issues. We have a fairly simple deployment with only one sensor, so it was straightforward.

It is very scalable, just ask them to increase the amount of storage.

There have been no scalability issues. We recently moved from 150 asset licenses to unlimited and the process was very easy.

The system is quite scalable however, it is best to understand the limitations of the different architectures offered.

I've not experienced any issues with this yet.

We have not experienced any scalability issues, but we also know that you can easily add more sensors, which helps to spread the load.

No scalability issues.

No, our network has stayed for the most part the same. In the future, it should be scalable with additional sensors.

We have not encountered any scalability issues; the product scales very easy.

We have encountered scalability issues. We had to keep changing our configuration or updating our storage capabilities as we added more logs.

I have the ability to scale out further from where I am if necessary, so I have not had any scalability problems.

No scalability issues as the product is highly scalable. You have to take care of what you want to integrate and think of use-cases instead of global log collection. In our opinion this is the key of success as you will scale your infrastructure with what you really need.

Yes. Upgrading the network cards (from 1GB to 10GB) was not “supported” on the appliance, so we had to purchase a second one as a sensor. The secondary appliance with the 10GBs NICs is the same as the primary appliance, so this was disappointing.

We have not scaled it yet but it handles our entire environment without a problem.

Scalability in a cloud solution is tied to costs. With any cloud solution, the more data you have and the larger your company, the higher the price point. I wouldn't say that scaling is easy, but it is standard.

No issues. Make sure you do size appropriately though for the level of logs you want to collect and retain. 

I personally haven't seen any scalability issues, though that falls out of my purview.

There were no issues with scalability.

I did not encounter any issues with scalability.

We have not had any requirements to change the scope of the installation since first deployment.

I have not yet run into any issues regarding scalability, however I have not yet deployed this on a very large network yet (1000+ devices).

No issues with scalability has been encountered in our environment.

I did not encounter any issues with scalability.

Haven't been able to break it yet.

AT&T AlienVault USM is scalable enough for our needs.

We are using AT&T AlienVault USM as a client, if we want to increase the data we can collect more data because the solution can expand well horizontally.

Between the cellphones and laptops usage, we have more than 250 users using his solution in my organization.

No, we did not have issues with scalability.

I have not had the opportunity to do an implementation of scalability, but, with the experience with 2 years ago managed the solution, I don't believe we will have problems to deploy.

I did not encounter any issues with scalability.

No.

Nothing except for networking challenges.

No.

I did not encounter any issues with scalability.

The only issues is related to the volume of alarms in a system - the UI/UX for working with a large mass - starting with several hundred alarms is suboptimal. I am hesitant to mention this as it is easily solved in the future by small UI changes.

We've been able to scale it for our needs without issues.

We have a small network. So far, we have had no issues with scale.

No.

We have had no issues with scalabilty.

No scalability issues.

Servers/sensors cap at 2048 host based agent deployments, but servers and sensors are easily scalable for a medium sized business.

I did not encounter any issues with scalability.

It scales well.

It's been able to scale for our needs.

The AIO is not fast enough for a network over 100 EPS, so you have to go with a dedicated server option for better speed.

No. I did not face any scalability issues.

Just learning the language, it's a new product, and it takes time to learn all of it's capabilities.

The scalability of this solution is good.

We have a large number of customers who use this product on a daily basis.

ATT AlienVault USM is scalable. 

It's not a good product for me, but for the small organization, it's a very good product.

The solution is being extensively used by one of our customers.
