More Anomali ThreatStream Pros →

"The most valuable feature is vulnerability management because it gives you insight into your environment to know what systems need to be updated or patched.""The most valuable feature is threat intelligence.""The solution has all the features that we need, however they do not work correctly.""The most valuable feature of the solution is the ease of deployment that it provides to users. The integrations that the product has with third-party applications are useful.""AT&T AlienVault USM is good for ELK Stack, the user experience is great because of its architecture. The ELK has a great performance and it has very good speed in the search and Kibana. Additionally, the visuals and dashboards and very nice and customizable.""It brought our logs into one place for review and set up alarms based on changes we were missing due to lack of having one place for everything to go.""This is a USM, so being able to get all the features under one roof makes it a good product with good new features.""What I find the most valuable about USM Anywhere is its compliance. It shows a list of all the administrators logged on and does it quite well. There are no whistles and bells, it's reliable and simple to use."

Cons
"Less code in integration would be nice when building blocks."

More Anomali ThreatStream Cons →

"I think plugin management should be self-service on AlienVault USM. The other product is self-service but on the USM side. You have to submit a ticket then AT&T creates and updates the plugins.""The solution is a bit complicated. It could be simplified quite a bit.""The solution already has quite good tools, however, they need better integration tools for linking with Office 365, Google Suite, and so on.""The GUI needs to improve because it's not user-friendly.""AlienVault cannot automatically respond to threats like other SIEM solutions, such as Sentinel and LogRhythm. Most of our clients are far away, so it's often challenging to handle alerts when they come up on our dashboard.""Plugins could be better utilized, as some of them do not recognize all logs.""Adding a parsing interface for the customers would make AT&T AlienVault USM better.""AT&T AlienVault USM can improve searchable data. It should be available for more than 90 days. If you need more than 90 days of data, you have to put a request and they give you raw data, which is not easy to search. A good addition would be to allow users to search data older than 90 days."
