Find out in this report how the two Log Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It provides in-depth information on business activities once we log into the system."
"I am impressed with the product's ability to pick up logs. It also has UEBA which has reduced the time to take charge of the events."
"It's a robust, mature product and you can do some really complex operations and analytics."
"It's a brilliant log collection tool, and it can handle hundreds of thousands of servers in a single shot to ingest the data."
"We haven't had any crashes or bugs. It is stable."
"The ability to customize the solution in great detail is its most valuable features. We can customize the use cases and also have the ability to do scripting. We can personalize our dashboard as well. The scalability the solution offers is quite impressive."
"ArcSight's robustness is its most valuable feature."
"We check a lot of logs in ArcSight Logger because we're running a massive database platform."
"This solution can identify many threats inside the organization (compromised endpoints, configuration issues), as well as "outside" threats (botnets, network scanners, web-attacks, etc)."
"The solution is stable."
"The setup is very easy and straightforward."
"There are multiple tools for information security. The solution includes all the latest advances on the network and host intrusion detection systems."
"We had used previous products and found AlienVault centralized the logging for our security."
"SIEM log collection is great, and all of the rules that support updates with maintenance."
"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."
"It has streamlined log aggregation and analysis to meet organizational and regulatory needs."
"The solution must provide readymade connectors for different applications."
"I would rate the technical support only 5 out of 10. The technical support is not satisfactory."
"The platform is quite expensive. They should reduce its cost."
"The integration with other systems could be improved."
"The solution should make it possible to integrate network analysis features."
"I would like to see better scheduling in the next release of this solution."
"The initial setup was a little bit complex."
"The next release should have AI capabilities."
"Adding a parsing interface for the customers would make AT&T AlienVault USM better."
"I feel that some areas of improvement would be vulnerability scanning. We use a separate product that seems to do a much better job."
"The only complex area of the setup was writing the custom scripts."
"Search performance can be slow. The Raw Logs feature is painfully slow. And if we're talking about the newer, the Anywhere product, you can't even schedule reports on the thing. There are probably a dozen other features I'd really like to see there, but that would be one of the biggies."
"USM Anywhere relies a lot on the community putting the data in. Often, you'll right-click on the attack, but nothing will be found. That's a weakness of it."
"In the future, I would like to see all these features of the solution working properly."
"It would be nice to see some machine learning and monitoring of the configuration in network devices."
"The reporting module could be a little easier to handle, as it requires quite some trial and error until you get the reports you want. Also, it would be great to have a graphical interface for the Network Intrusion Detection System's rule management."
