Overall, RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets (RSA SIEM) is a stable product, but it is very unstable when you have do updates and upgrades.

Some of the RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets versions are not stable. Whenever they are releasing upgrades we were facing some issues.

The stability all depends upon how well the site is set up. All these solutions are good, but the CPU and OS are the major portion of undoing the correlations. If you have a poor correlation, then you need to have less than 70 percent utilization. Then that may not be good performance.

The solution is reliable. I won't say great, due to the fact that, naturally, if you compare it to other products it is not that great. That said, for the operations, it is good as long as you do not violate your license. The moment you violate your license, this will cause a quite delayed reaction, at least, that is what I've seen compared to Splunk and QRadar.

It's very stable if you are talking about the old version. I don't like 11.3 and I don't know 11.4, it's not actually released. It provides accurate information, quick analysis from the endpoint perspective, and quick identification of any potential malware. But the 11.3 version is a complete disaster. You cannot analyze anything. 

I am part of the maintenance team. It's me and a couple more staff members that don't work full-time on this solution. I would say around four employees are required for maintenance but not full-time.

It was too early to say whether this solution was stable because you need at least a year to determine that. In the initial stages, we were still getting a lot of alerts because there was no time to fine-tune it. Maybe after six or eight months, we would have been able to say whether the product was stable. Just before reaching that point, I left the organization.

What I can say is that for the time I was there, we did not experience any bugs, crashes, or glitches.

I cannot say that the solution was stable because it tended to crash. We were using it before version 11, where some of the problems were supposed to be solved. I have heard from insiders that version 11 does not hold up to the hype and they're still facing some of the same problems.

We did have some issues before our upgrade from version 10.6., although they were not major. Since the upgrade, I have noticed that some of these things have gotten better.

I would say that this is a stable solution, although there are some minor issues that need to be settled. Currently, they are being investigated.

More than once with fine tuning use cases (ESA feature) for real-time monitoring.

Reporting feature suddenly limits the amount of log extraction over certain cycles.

The system is stable if you provide enough CPU, RAM, and HDD (IOPS). Sizing should be done by RSA Professional Services or by an experienced partner for Virtual Machines. The hardware is sized well.
