We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The customers who have the use case of monitoring the file server and want to know the user's activity. It's the Power Admin's requirement."

More Power Admin PA File Sight Pros →

"It allows you to define what alerts you want to see, or not to see, as well as if you want them grouped, or ungrouped.""The other big selling feature for us was its integration capabilities with all the other security-based products.""The feature that I liked the most is that they have a vulnerability assessment package that comes along with the SIEM solution. So, whenever I find any threat or alert for any of the devices or servers, I could immediately initiate a vulnerability assessment scan on that machine. That is one of a kind. The price at which AlienVault operates is also valuable.""This is a USM, so being able to get all the features under one roof makes it a good product with good new features.""Any unusual behaviour, we can monitor. We have alerts set up to be sent when we receive signs of any unusual behaviour.""OTX is a great module that lets staff maintain and monitor updates regarding events in the infrastructure and takes decision to improve the security perimeter.""Easy to use, scalable, stable, and very intuitive platform that provides protection against security threats.""As we have to service several servers, we can manage them in a economical way, which is beneficial to our team and business."

Cons
"The setup takes half an hour. It will be a little complex."

More Power Admin PA File Sight Cons →

"Different functions to customize reports should be added.""It would be hard for any legitimate MSSP to use it.""We develop additional rules and scripts to make it more usable.""Source material on the forums to be more up-to-date with the changes happening within the product. Forums being out-of-date with information due to the changes makes troubleshooting a little more difficult - specific to the HIDS agents.""Their threat intelligence platform needs to be broadened. They should integrate it with more threat intelligence platforms. For the threat feed that they get from open intelligence, I would like them to add a few premium threat intelligence platforms. They can provide a bundle in which AlienVault has the threat intelligence background of other premium products.""I'd like to see a dashboard that's a little more descriptive.""Pay attention to false-positive event automatic correlations.""This solution could be easier to use."
