Find out what your peers are saying about Recorded Future, Check Point Software Technologies, Microsoft and others in Threat Intelligence Platforms."It integrates well with other solutions and provides good threat intelligence in terms of external threats."
"The feature that I like best is the dashboard."
"The most valuable feature is alerting."
"I am impressed with the tool's integration of Palo Alto products which serves as a platform for security."
"The logs play a crucial role as they contribute to blocking unwanted Internet traffic."
"Easy to use, scalable, stable, and very intuitive platform that provides protection against security threats."
"We had used previous products and found AlienVault centralized the logging for our security."
"This solution can identify many threats inside the organization (compromised endpoints, configuration issues), as well as "outside" threats (botnets, network scanners, web-attacks, etc)."
"SIEM log collection is great, and all of the rules that support updates with maintenance."
"AlienVault's reporting is good. I like that vulnerability assessment is part of the solution, and the UI is intuitive. Also, the overhead is low, which is to say we don't need a dedicated SOC team to manage and analyze things constantly. We're a small company that doesn't have those resources."
"The other big selling feature for us was its integration capabilities with all the other security-based products."
"The most valuable feature is threat intelligence."
"AlientVault has helped us in improving our visualization and incident response during cybersecurity situations."
"It is a completely cloud-based product at present."
"I would like to have more technical documentation that contains greater detail on the types of threats that are occurring."
"I would like the tool to see more integration with Cortex XDR. There is no real reason to keep them separate."
"It would be better if they used the threat intelligence feeds directly from their side and changing the verdict instead of us requesting it."
"It would be helpful to have better documentation for configuring and installing the solution."
"It was easy on PoC, but when we got to the product it was different story. We had to learn the product again and got feeling that the PoC was a different product."
"I'd like to see a dashboard that's a little more descriptive."
"We've had some stability problems, not a lot, but a few. Updates seem to be the worst. That seems to be when the stability problems come up."
"The vulnerability scanning feature is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings and needs to improve. The tool has vulnerability scanning, but it is not that efficient."
"Its reporting tools need improvements. It would be good if they can provide integration with other ticketing systems. Currently, we only have integration with Slack and Jira. It is also a bit slow, and its replication engine can be improved."
"The price of AT&T AlienVault USM could be reduced."
"AlienVault must improve their correlation feature. Some of the events do not match with the correlation rules and some of the correlation events are false-positive."
"The solution already has quite good tools, however, they need better integration tools for linking with Office 365, Google Suite, and so on."
