Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It improves our security. Before, we didn't have anything scanning our containers. We had software scanning all the physical servers, but we had nothing to scan our containers. With Alert Logic, we can do that.""The solution was consistently available, and I cannot recall any instances where it was down.""We receive infrastructure security warnings from it. So, we know what is going on and what needs to be addressed.""The initial setup is pretty straightforward.""The quicker implementation of changes to our infrastructure from Alert Logic tell us if there are any problems.""The installation and configuration were slick.""It has the ability to install agents. It is pretty straightforward. You can automate the process pretty easily.""Everything is in one dashboard; I'm notified when there's an incident and advised on what steps to take."

"The most valuable features are monitoring for advanced persistent threats, the system runs in a sandbox allowing for effective zero-day exploits management, and the Inspector has a built-in sandbox.""The product is very easy to install.""The performance and stability are great.""Initial setup is easy. It can be done by yourself.""The HTML file sandboxing is very good.""I like the sales operations testing. and support.""Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very specific product for threat intelligence with smart protection.""Deep Discovery is scalable and compatible with other products. It's crucial to have that compatibility because it's an integral part of our security solution. It integrates smoothly. The interface is user-friendly, so administration is simple."

Cons
"The documentation, especially with the initial setup, needs improvement.""Its menu is not very intuitive. I would like to see the user menu expanded a bit. The user menu is very layered, and because of the layers, you have to go down a path that is not very intuitive.""The product needs to mature. We don't want to be bombarded with unnecessary issues and have the real ones slip through.""This product needs to mature more. While it is a good product, there are some areas where it needs work.""Could be more of an endpoint protector.""I would like to see it do initial scans and start capturing data, which it will truly analyze, not just be a reporting system saying, "Here is an email. Here is an email. Here is an email."""I would like more data on the alert payload. It would be good to have the ability to customize the alert payload to add whatever data that we want on there. Right now, it is a bit limited.""They have ideas and email you whatever they find, but they don't have a dedicated security team who will work on an attack or a specific security instance."

More Alert Logic Cons →

"The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only.""Trend Micro can improve the pricing in general. There is nothing else they can add or improve in the solution.""Some of the end users may not be technically proficient, so they occasionally face problems due to a lack of knowledge.""The solution needs improvement in terms of pricing.""The stability of the solution could be improved. It should be 100% stable, but it's not there right now.""The product's security features need enhancement.""I would like to see integration with third-party tools to improve the visibility of the dashboards.""The solution could be more stable and offer more security."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Our ROI would probably be zero. We don't even use it. It sits in there. We get emails and just delete them. Around the world, we don't even use it."
  • "Alert Logic has better competitive pricing than some of its competitors."
  • "Almost any product that is on the AWS Marketplace is super easy to subscribe to."
  • "Its pricing is very reasonable considering what you get for what you pay. There is quite a good value there. Its licensing is also very logical. They've got the licensing price points at a reasonable level. It is on a monthly license but a yearly contract. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
  • "Price of the solution was very reasonable considering the size of our organization at the time, and so it worked out perfectly."
  • More Alert Logic Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Overall, the price is good."
  • "The price of the solution is lower compared to the competition."
  • "The licensing cost is a bit pricey. We pay a yearly subscription."
  • "Its price is fine, but Trend Micro can improve the pricing in general. It is a hardware solution. It is based on the number of nodes, and according to the number of nodes, clients decide which box they should acquire. They have to renew their license every year. It is subscription-based."
  • "The tool’s licensing costs depend on the customers."
  • "The tool's licensing costs are yearly. There are no additional costs associated with the product."
  • "Compared to its competitors, Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a little expensive."

    Overview

    Alert Logic is a cloud-based security and compliance solution that provides threat detection and response, log management, and compliance automation. Its primary use case is to manage lag and protect the network, identify configuration issues related to security and cloud infrastructure, and serve as the primary SIEM tool before escalating tickets. 

    The most valuable feature is that it has everything in one dashboard, including being notified of incidents and receiving advice on what steps to take. Alert Logic has helped organizations process large amounts of data, remotely monitor everything from the cloud, and streamline workflow while reducing implementation time.

    Deep Discovery is available as a physical or virtual network appliance. It’s designed to quickly detect advanced malware that typically bypasses traditional security defenses and exfiltrates sensitive data. Specialized detection engines and custom sandbox analysis detect and prevent breaches.
