We performed a comparison between Check Point Security Management and Logz.io based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."The log dashboard in the SmartConsole is very useful and convenient for monitoring and tracking."
"The features we like and find the most valuable are the ways we can manage the policy, create objects, and drag and drop objects in our daily operation. It makes our daily operation on the firewall management much easier than going, for example, to one firewall, then going to the other."
"The reporting system provides real-time insights into the security situation and shows measures that can be taken to protect our data."
"The most beneficial features for us are the alert classifications, which help us prioritize critical issues, and the detailed reports that provide insights into attack origins and purposes, such as TLS violations or content violations."
"HA Structure provides good coverage and works fine."
"The SSL VPN monitoring based on users and tunnel monitoring are great value-added features present in the management console."
"The fact that everything starts from the same unified management console makes it very easy to integrate new equipment or functionalities once the operator has become familiar with it, as everything will follow similar management or operation mechanisms."
"The firewall cleverly handles such attacks without compromising on performance."
"The tool is simple to setup where it is just plug and play. The tool is reliable and we never had any performance issues."
"We use the tool to track the dev and production environment."
"The visualizations in Kibana are the most valuable feature. It's much more convenient to have a visualization of logs. We can see status really clearly and very fast, with just a couple of clicks."
"InsightOne is the main reason why we use LogMeIn. This is mostly because of log data that we are pushing tools and logs in general."
"We use the product for log collection and monitoring."
"It is massively useful and great for testing. We can just go, find logs, and attach them easily. It has a very quick lookup. Whereas, before we would have to go, dig around, and find the server that the logs were connected to, then go to the server, download the log, and attach it. Now, we can just go straight to this solution, type in the log ID and server ID, and obtain the information that we want."
"The other nice thing about Logz.io is their team. When it comes to onboarding, their support is incredibly proactive. They bring the brand experience from a customer services perspective because their team is always there to help you refine filters and tweak dashboards. That is really a useful thing to have. Their engagement is really supportive."
"The query mechanism for response codes and application health is valuable."
"I would like this solution to be integrated directly into the Cluster XL equipment."
"Sometimes the security system slows down when it is overloaded."
"Check Point EDR has room for improvement, especially in the area of Data Loss Prevention where it currently lacks functionality."
"Among the things that I would like in the future is for the solution to have its application on Android and iOS, as many of the administrators have adopted remote administration positions due to what has happened since the pandemic. This would help us to have an easier and simpler administration."
"In the last version from 80.20, there are some issues around SSNA Diction. I would like this to be improved."
"It also offers compatibility with third-party security solutions, however, it is not a lot. This needs to be improved."
"I would like it to be the administrator of equipment or Next Generation firewalls (which have to be managed on this platform) and to be able to manage other services (like Harmony) that also belong to Check Point."
"You need some technical expertise to use the solution. I don't think it's accessible to the typical end-user. You need to access the box and use some command lines or the web interface. It would be nice to have a user-friendly dashboard and comprehensive reporting."
"The solution needs to expand its access control and make it accessible through API."
"I would like granularity on alerting so we can get tentative alerts and major alerts, then break it down between the two."
"The product needs improvement from a filtering perspective."
"I would like them to improve how they manage releases. Some of our integrations integrate specifically with set versions. Logz.io occasionally releases an update that might break that integration. On one occasion, we found out a little bit too late, then we had to roll it back."
"The solution needs to improve its data retention. It should be greater than seven days. The product needs to improve its documentation as well."
"When it comes to reducing our troubleshooting time, it depends. When there are no bugs in Logz.io, it reduces troubleshooting by 5 to 10 percent. When there are bugs, it increases our troubleshooting time by 200 percent or more."
"The price can be cheaper and they should have better monitoring."
"Capacity planning could be a little bit of a struggle."
