We performed a comparison between Exabeam Fusion SIEM and ManageEngine Log360 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 standout feature of Sentinel is that, because it's cloud-based and because it's from Microsoft, it integrates really well with all the other Microsoft products. It's really simple to set up and get going."
"The features that stand out are the detection engine and its integration with multiple data sources."
"Free ingestion for Azure logs (with E5 licence)"
"The most valuable feature is the alert notifications, which are categorized by severity levels: informational, low, medium, and high."
"The data connectors that Microsoft Sentinel provides are easy to integrate when we work with a Microsoft agent."
"It is always correlating to IOCs for normal attacks, using Azure-related resources. For example, if any illegitimate IP starts unusual activity on our Azure firewall, then it automatically generates an alarm for us."
"The UI of Sentinel is very good and easy to use, even for beginners."
"Mainly, this is a cloud-native product. So, there are zero concerns about managing the whole infrastructure on-premises."
"It's a very user-friendly product and it's a very comprehensive technology."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is the easy-to-use user interface."
"The setup is not difficult. It was easy."
"The way it can connect with AWS is very useful, and the integrations are pretty good."
"The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
"I have customers that like the EUBA functionality of it. The solution has the ability to build a session, basically. It pulls a lot of information together, for example, everything a user does in a specific timeframe. It's quite helpful."
"The user interface and the timelines they use are the most valuable features. The price model is very simple so that one can understand it easily and there are no surprises within it."
"The reports that you can run are really nice."
"The most valuable feature is that this solution is more secure than others, and there are more applications and features as well."
"It is easier to deploy than are other SIEMs, which is great. You can also get an overview of your environment, which is very handy."
"It is nice to be able to monitor and to have notifications."
"The deployment is quite simple and pretty straightforward."
"We haven't had any stability issues."
"The solution could be improved by including XDR, remediation and Sandbox."
"The reporting is great. Everything you need is in the report for you already."
"When we pass KPIs to the governance department, there's no option to provide rights to the data or dashboard to colleagues. We can use Power BI for this, but it isn't easy or convenient. They should just come up with a way to provide limited role-based access to auditing personnel"
"Currently, the watchlist feature is being utilized, and although there have been improvements, it is still not fully optimized."
"At the network level, there is a limitation in integrating some of the switches or routers with Microsoft Sentinel. Currently, SPAN traffic monitoring is not available in Microsoft Sentinel. I have heard that it is available in Defender for Identity, which is a different product. It would be good if LAN traffic monitoring or SPAN traffic monitoring is available in Microsoft Sentinel. It would add a lot of value. It is available in some of the competitor products in the market."
"I would like to be able to monitor applications outside of the Azure Cloud."
"Given that I am in the small business space, I wish they would make it easier to operate Sentinel without being a Sentinel expert. Examples of things that could be easier are creating alerts and automations from scratch and designing workbooks."
"The learning curve could be improved. I am still learning it. We were able to implement the basic features to get them up and running, but there are still so many things that I don't know about all its features. They have a lot of features that we have not been able to use or apply. If they could work on reducing the solution's learning curve, that would be good. While there is a training course held by Microsoft to learn more about this solution, there is a cost associated with it."
"Sentinel still has some anomalies. For example, sometimes when we write a query for log analysis with KQL, it doesn't give us the data in a proper way... Also, the fields or columns could be improved. Sometimes, it is not giving the desired results and there is a blank field."
"While I appreciate the UI itself and the vast amount of information available on the platform, I'm finding the overall user experience to be frustrating due to frequent disconnections and the requirement to repeatedly re-authenticate."
"The initial setup of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is complex because it needs to integrate with the SIEM solution, but after this is complete it is straightforward."
"The organzation is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate"
"The only problem is that the UI is not very impressive."
"Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful."
"They should provide detailed information about detecting phishing emails."
"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
"Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"The integration with SharePoint and Teams should be improved."
"Their technical support should be improved."
"There is room for improvement, especially in the reporting aspect. The reports are not as good as those in Splunk."
"The support needs improvement."
"It's difficult to find which conditions have been applied to a report because they are provided by default by ManageEngine. However, with other SIEMs if you want to create a report, they provide details, like which conditions are triggering certain reports. This needs to be there in ManageEngine. It would be good to know which parameter has been applied to the report that is updating the system."
"Most times log sheets are not assigned well."
"The solution lacks some features when compared to other products."
"It is not expensive compared to other solutions."
