The solution helped with productivity and the ability to process logs. We do Event Log Filtering for certain log types, which we don't want in our SIEM as they're just too noisy. Having too much noise in the SIEM makes it harder to find relevant things. Therefore, we use Log Filtering to limit the noise. It's also given us the ability to bring more logs in, so we bring them all from all of our workstations and servers. Doing the log filtering this way allowed us to bring in other log sources and keep the noise manageable.

The Event Log Filtering feature filters out certain logs that we don't need, and it has definitely helped decrease costs and increase efficiency for all of the products. With its hardware being on-premises, it reduces resources all around and makes it more efficient.

We use the Event Log Filtering feature a lot. We use it for simple troubleshooting tasks like when a user is logged out, to more important tasks like trying to investigate a threat. As far as its effect on productivity, we can go and search instead of trying to troubleshoot and guess what is causing an error. We can identify what the program is or where the hiccup is.
