We can monitor whether the traffic is up to the mark or whether they need to add more bandwidth. Also, we can see if we're able to get real-time environment data as well. The customization dashboard is really good. LogRhythm NetMon has its own in-built dashboards which are helpful in guiding customization."

"Ixia has one flaw, which is that they do not print the license code on the paper licenses that are shipped to the customers."

"Some of the automated tasks we can perform on QRadar cannot be performed on LogRhythm because the solution has limitations."
