Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 way it can connect with AWS is very useful, and the integrations are pretty good.""Exabeam Fusion SIEM has a good performance and more advantages than traditional solutions.""Timeline based analysis; good platform support""The solution's initial setup process is easy.""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 analytics would have to be our most valuable feature.""That alerting and reporting service is great.""On the Varonis side, technical support is phenomenal. Their ability to explain is very good, and they seem to be very knowledgeable. When I get an alert that doesn't quite make sense, they dive in there and kind of take me through it. That's very useful and very good. There are some false alerts, but it is better to have a false alert than no alert at all.""The 24/7 support is the most valuable feature. They have been able to answer support questions pretty quickly.""The telemetry to capture everything and the reports are very easy to configure without having a developer degree.""It can easily identify unusual behavior or access patterns that may pose a potential threat, while operating as a unified reporting system."

Cons
"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.""They should provide detailed information about detecting phishing emails.""We had a large volume right from the beginning and they weren't quite prepared for that. That's something that they should think about when it comes to customers that have a large volume to start off with.""We still have questions surrounding hardware deployment.""Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful.""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."

More Exabeam Fusion SIEM Cons →

"We have Microsoft Office 365. I just saw an article today which says that they're actually getting integrated with Microsoft Office 365, which would be a useful feature. For user-based reports, log on activity, and stuff like that, it doesn't seem to really be present like Log360. That could just be my inexperience with it. I've been dealing with it for only about two and a half months.""The GUI should be more functional. There should be a process for connecting through Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc.""I'd like to see automatic updates for this solution. Currently, it's a manual process to update all the keywords""It is significantly complex.""For unstructured data monitoring, it's one of the top ones, if not the top one, due to its usability.""I would like it to have cloud integration."

  • More Exabeam Fusion SIEM Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "You could do a subscription, where you pay yearly, or you could purchase it outright. The licensing cost is based on the number of users on the system that you are monitoring."
  • "Licensing is on an annual basis. Maintenance and renewal fees are separate. Varonis Datalert is quite expensive."
  • "I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."
