Find out in this report how the two Log Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The technical support team is good...It is a scalable solution."

"It's a brilliant log collection tool, and it can handle hundreds of thousands of servers in a single shot to ingest the data."
"The most valuable feature is the search capability, which is simple to use."
"The ESM use cases are the most valuable. It enables us to use the big data collection inside our company. We are able to create use cases for whatever it suits and I find that the most interesting part of any SIEM solution."
"We haven't had any crashes or bugs. It is stable."
"ArcSight provides the basic information that we want."
"The ability to customize the solution in great detail is its most valuable features. We can customize the use cases and also have the ability to do scripting. We can personalize our dashboard as well. The scalability the solution offers is quite impressive."
"We like Elastic Security because it's a REST API-based solution. That's the primary reason we use it."
"What customers found most valuable in Elastic Security feature-wise is the search capability, in particular, the way of writing the search query and the speed of searching for results."
"It is scalable."
"Elastic Security is very customizable, and the dashboards are very easy to build."
"Elastic Security is very easy to adapt."
"It's simple and easy to use."
"Enables monitoring of application performance and the ability to predict behaviors."

"The product's connectors should work better and the user manuals need an update."

"We have had problems with archiving."
"I had some latency issues for two months. I had to increase our storage capacity significantly to reduce the latency."
"It would be better if the product is cheaper."
"The next release should have AI capabilities."
"It's not a new product and is a bit complex. So, it requires a person dedicated to working on it and to know about it in and out. It is a huge product, and the search operation is a bit complicated for a new user or someone who has not used it for long. So for that person, it becomes a bit difficult."
"The console in older versions is not user-friendly."
"They don't provide user authentication and authorisation features (Shield) as a part of their open-source version."
"The Integration module could be improved. It is a pain to build integration with any product. We have to do parking and so on. It's not like other commercial solutions that use profile integration. I would also see more detection features on the SIEM side."

"One limitation of Elastic Security is that it does not have built-in workflows for all tasks. For example, if you need a workflow for compliance, you will need to create a custom workflow."

"Email notification should be done the same way as Logentries does it."
"Upgrades currently released as stacks when it should be a plugin or an extension to save removal and reinstallation."
