Cons
"The initial setup was a little bit complex.""It would be better if the product is cheaper.""In the next release, I want to see more intelligence.""I think the ArcSight team should try to simplify legacy products for the customers, because that product is not easy to use or to work with. It needs more more competency or appeal to use. We hope Micro Focus is trying to resolve this.""I had some latency issues for two months. I had to increase our storage capacity significantly to reduce the latency.""The solution must provide readymade connectors for different applications.""The product's connectors should work better and the user manuals need an update.""The solution could be improved in maintenance settings."

More ArcSight Logger Cons →

"It could be more stable.""It could be even more automated.""The product provides minimal metrics that are insufficient.""The logging functionality could be better.""It is difficult to estimate in advance how much something is going to cost.""While we are satisfied with the overall performance, in certain cases we must add additional metrics and additional tools like Grafana and Dynatrace.""Lacking sufficient operations documentation.""This solution could be improved if it offered the ability to analyze charts, such as a solution like Kibana."
