"For full stack observability, Elastic is the best tool compared with any other tool ."
"We use AppDynamics and Elastic. The reason why we're using Elastic APM is because of the license count. It's very favorable compared to AppDynamics. It's inexpensive; it's economical."
"It is a powerful tool that allows users to collect and transform logs as needed, enabling flexible visualization and analysis."
"Machine learning is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"It's easy to deploy, and it's very flexible."
"It has always been a stable solution."
"The ability to ensure that the data is searchable and maintainable is highly valuable for our purposes."
"I like the features we use, including malware detection, inventory, detection of hidden processes, and activity logs. Inventory is probably the most important feature. It tells us when processes and packages were installed and what they are, which is helpful."
"It is a stable solution."
"Wazuh's most beneficial features for our security needs are flexibility, built-in rules, integration capabilities, and documentation."
"The deployment is easy and they provide very good documentation."
"It's stable."
"Wazuh's logging features integrate seamlessly with AWS cloud-native services. There are also Wazuh agent configurations for different use cases, like vulnerability scanning, host-based intrusion detection, and file integrity monitoring."
"If they support a solution, it is easy to do an integration."
"It is excellent in terms of visualization and indexing services, making it a powerful tool for malware detection."
"They need more skills in the market. There are not enough skills in the market. It is not pervasive enough on the market, in my opinion. In other words, there isn't a big enough user base."
"Elastic APM's visualization is not that great compared to other tools. It's number of metrics is very low."
"The price is the only issue in the solution. It can be made better and cheaper."
"Elastic Observability is difficult to use. There are only three options for customization but this can be difficult for our use case. We do not have other options to choose the metrics shown, such as CPU or memory usage."
"If we had some pre-defined templates for observability that we could start using right away after deploying it – instead of having to build or to change some of the dashboards – that would be helpful."
"The solution needs to use more AI. Once the product onboards AI, users would more effectively be able to track endpoints for specific messages."
"Elastic Observability is an excellent product for monitoring and visibility, but it lacks predictive analytics. Most solutions are aligned with the AIOps requirements, but this piece is missing in Elastic and should be included."
"Improving code insight related to infrastructure and network, particularly focusing on aspects such as firewalls, switches, routers, and testing would be beneficial."
"There could be a hardware monitoring tool for the solution."
"They could include flexibility and customization capabilities by modifying for customers based on partner agreements."
"Its user interface for sure can be improved. It is not so comfortable to use if you're looking for specific logs."
"The only challenge we faced with Wazuh was the lack of direct support."
"The support team could be more responsive and provide quicker replies during our working hours in Indonesia, which would be a significant improvement."
"The tool doesn't detect anomalies or new environments."
"They need to go towards integrating with more cloud applications and not just OS like Windows and Linux."
"I have yet to find the same capability in Wazuh to get logs from different sources into the system"
