"There are many valuable features in this product, but probably the biggest is the customization capability it has."
"The most valuable features are security detections, perimeter detection, dashboards, and alerts."
"Not only can you look at the protocol import level. It also has a live PCAP analysis."
"The Threat Hunting feature provides complete traffic analysis."
"Analytics. It can provide log information from the device. With log information, I can see if there is a threat"
"We like the integration of all of these Fortinet platforms together. Everything is integrated well, and we are able to sell that as a service to our customers."
"It works well with medium to large-scale enterprises."
"We have found the most important features in Fortinet FortiSIEM to be the correlation, file utility check, latest file, and hash changes. These features are important for us."
"The solution is very stable. It's run for years without the need to do anything except, add new patches when they are available, which are always a good idea to install."
"The product is quite well-organized. The GUI makes it easy to navigate."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM is easy to use."

"They have a new solution, ExtraHop Reveal(x), and I think it needs improvement."
"The backup and recovery process for this solution needs improvement."
"FortiSIEM needs to expand its integration with third-party vendors. I don't know if Forcepoint has been added, but there were limited resources for integrating Forcepoint solutions when we implemented FortiSIEM. It integrates well with other Fortinet products and solutions from established cybersecurity companies like Palo Alto but doesn't integrate with some of the newer vendors."
"The graphs on the user interface could be improved as we often experience glitches."
"Sometimes, if there are changes made by a user on a database server, it can be difficult to get that information on the fly. I would like to see a situation where once I specify a user with the database server I need, and with the changes they have performed on that, I don't need to continue my search pattern to drill down just to get the information."
"It's difficult to integrate unsupported devices with FortiSIEM compared to QRadar. It's easier to integrate and develop processes in QRadar. It's harder to develop a custom process in FortiSIEM."
"Areas for improvement would be the ease of use and the integration with Fortinet's own products."
"The challenge I face with Fortinet FortiSIEM is the lack of support."
"When our team tried configuring logs for Microsoft SQL, it did not work."
