Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is the level of detail that you can see about certain events, even when they do not come up in the console.""The machine learning is a good feature.""In our country we are a little bit private in terms of solutions, so we are just starting to use the basic data capture. Now some users can start to use additional features that come with Micro Focus ArcSight like user behavior analytics for investigating.""It's an efficient solution.""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.""The log digestion features from threat intelligence platforms like Recorded Future or Talos are valuable.""The most valuable feature is the search capability, which is simple to use.""Our return on investment for implementing ArcSight Logger over the past 12 months has been positive."

"The user interface is very good.""The most valuable features of ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer are the number of capabilities, file integration monitoring, web server log collection, and alert configuration.""It is stable.""The initial setup is straightforward""ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is easy to gather reports to give to management. My supervisor has access to the solution and he enjoys the graphs.""The tool's reports show activities.""It's one of the easiest products. It's very simple to use.""What I found most useful in ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is its integration with other ManageEngine applications. It seamlessly integrates throughout the ManageEngine suite, and that's beneficial. I also like that the solution has chain management capabilities, it has a modular approach, and it's easy to reach the support team."

Cons
"We find that the search and access functionality is quite slow.""I would like to see better scheduling in the next release of this solution.""I would rate the technical support only 5 out of 10. The technical support is not satisfactory.""It's not a new product and is a bit complex. So, it requires a person dedicated to working on it and to know about it in and out. It is a huge product, and the search operation is a bit complicated for a new user or someone who has not used it for long. So for that person, it becomes a bit difficult.""The platform is quite expensive. They should reduce its cost.""It would be better if the product is cheaper.""The integration with other systems could be improved.""The speed of Logger indexing and searching for certain bugs for some queries that we provide could be improved. It can handle a huge number of logs but it can be improved."

More ArcSight Logger Cons →

"Support could improve to make the solution better.""The scalability is limited.""The first tier of customer service and support is not great.""What I'd like to see as an improvement to ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is for it to be more AI-driven. Having more automation would also make the solution better.""The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability.""The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier.""The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities.""I would like to see more detailed reports."
