"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 ESM use cases are the most valuable. It enables us to use the big data collection inside our company. We are able to create use cases for whatever it suits and I find that the most interesting part of any SIEM solution."
"The technical support team is good...It is a scalable solution."
"We check a lot of logs in ArcSight Logger because we're running a massive database platform."
"We haven't had any crashes or bugs. It is stable."
"The log digestion features from threat intelligence platforms like Recorded Future or Talos are valuable."
"It's an efficient solution."
"The out of the box reports and workflows are pretty good and they meet our requirements well."
"The automation feature is good because if your CMDB is OK and it is already in sync, then the automation part is good to go."
"We find that the reporting is particularly valuable in terms of not only communicating with our peer teams but also with the executives."
"We've had great feedback from our customers about SevOne support. They're willing to set up a remote session upon request. You have to go through three tiers of support with most vendors, and they ask a lot of screening questions before they will do a remote session. You need to spend a lot of time before an engineer will host a remote session to look at your problematic system."
"With this tool it is interesting to show the info to the client and explain where the traffic is."
"Scalability. I have never had to worry about how to handle really big environments."
"The most valuable feature is the NMS because that's the core of the system. Without the NMS, the other tools aren't that usable."
"The monitoring of the network is very customizable. That is its unique feature."
"I had some latency issues for two months. I had to increase our storage capacity significantly to reduce the latency."
"The integration with other systems could be improved."
"You have limited reporting capabilities and I wouldn't choose ArcSight Logger for this purpose."
"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."
"The initial setup was a little bit complex."
"The product's connectors should work better and the user manuals need an update."
"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."
"Software upgrades can be tricky is not easy."
"One area that requires a little bit of improvement is the topology of visualization and being able to map out connections, end-to-end. It's able to do that, but it's not as impressive as we would like it to be. We would like to understand the different interface types and the connection points better, through the visualization. Heatmaps also need further development."
"The reporting of NMS is good, but it could be better."
"NMS has several areas for improvement. It should be more user-friendly inside of NMS for some of the functionality in there. It's been getting better the last version or two, but the there have been bugs in there whenever I've gone to new versions."
"The reports are easy to configure but they are a bit outdated in terms of appearance and visualization."
"The tool needs improvement in non-Cisco SD-WAN."
"The GUI: both the dashboard/user view and the admin tool."
"Would benefit with the addition of AI modules for proactive data insights."
