We performed a comparison between ArcSight Logger and Grafana Loki based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."I am impressed with the product's ability to pick up logs. It also has UEBA which has reduced the time to take charge of the events."
"Our return on investment for implementing ArcSight Logger over the past 12 months has been positive."
"In our country we are a little bit private in terms of solutions, so we are just starting to use the basic data capture. Now some users can start to use additional features that come with Micro Focus ArcSight like user behavior analytics for investigating."
"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."
"Some of the most valuable features I really appreciate are the performance, how quick the solution is, and how easy it is to create a query."
"The most valuable feature is the level of detail that you can see about certain events, even when they do not come up in the console."
"We haven't had any crashes or bugs. It is stable."
"It's an efficient solution."
"The most valuable feature is the capability to set up alerts, which becomes necessary when we need to receive notifications for specific events."
"The log collection feature is good and the solution is easily understandable. v"
"The tool can be used in multi-cluster environments."
"We are using Grafana Loki as a database for real-time metrics."
"The best feature of Grafana Loki is that it integrates well with our other tool."
"The most valuable feature of Grafana Loki is the dashboards which are really simple to create."
"I appreciate the capability to process logs from microservices and seamlessly integrate them into Grafana."
"Loki also utilizes the same service discovery mechanism as used by Prometheus. So, whatever labeled metadata you see in Prometheus, you have the exact same metadata in the Loki system. Given this level of intricacy and the attempt to address these challenges, I firmly believe that Loki deserves praise for the work."
"I would rate the technical support only 5 out of 10. The technical support is not satisfactory."
"We find that the search and access functionality is quite slow."
"It would be better if the product is cheaper."
"The solution should make it possible to integrate network analysis features."
"In the next release, I want to see more intelligence."
"The platform is quite expensive. They should reduce its cost."
"The solution must provide readymade connectors for different applications."
"I think the ArcSight team should try to simplify legacy products for the customers, because that product is not easy to use or to work with. It needs more more competency or appeal to use. We hope Micro Focus is trying to resolve this."
"There is a need for some change in the alerting types of the product. In short, a few changes in the alert area are needed due to minor shortcomings."
"The correlation of requests is not simple in Grafana Loki and can be improved."
"We encountered certain limitations when it came to alerting, particularly when dealing with specific data sources."
"Visualization-wise, Grafana Loki's dashboard looks a little outdated compared to other open-source visualization tools like Chronograf."
"The solution has shortcomings regarding security monitoring-oriented features that need improvement."
"Enhancing speed could be a game-changer, and while it might vary depending on the application, it's a factor worth exploring."
"We had a well-structured dashboard with a functional query. However, an issue arose when the Kubernetes pod restarted. The statistics from our Grafana query would reset, dropping to zero and starting anew. This was particularly noticeable with linear graphs, which are expected to show consistent growth."
"The Docker container partition feature needs improvement as they do not reuse the space and goes into a pending state."
