Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution could be improved by including XDR, remediation and Sandbox.""We haven't had any stability issues.""The reporting is great. Everything you need is in the report for you already.""ManageEngine Log360 is not difficult to deploy.""The deployment is quite simple and pretty straightforward.""It is easier to deploy than are other SIEMs, which is great. You can also get an overview of your environment, which is very handy.""You can have all of the logs from servers to network and it gets sent out to the correct owners. This is very helpful.""The product is very user-friendly."

More ManageEngine Log360 Pros →

"Asset discovery seems to be good.""It is my "security person" looking at irregularities and letting me know when something has occurred.""It allows you to define what alerts you want to see, or not to see, as well as if you want them grouped, or ungrouped.""Log-monitoring and alerting enable us to know when things happen that we need to know about.""On any given day I could give you a different answer regarding the most valuable features of the product. The feature that is most important is the fact that it has a lot of features, that it's not just a log collection and correlation system, that it has a lot of other components built in. The bundle of features is really the killer feature.""The most valuable feature in AT&T AlienVault USM is the reporting.""Reports are customized, so you can present them to executives or engineers.​""The Event Correlation and vulnerability scans have been the most useful. As a 24/7 SOC, we use the incoming alarms to give an overview of suspicious traffic going through the network. It's easy to look at the correlated events and see the broad picture of traffic for that customer. Vulnerability scans are good for providing patch and remediation guidelines to keep customer systems secure."

Cons
"On the logging system, there's a local on-client side that is encrypted, and there's one that is not encrypted. It is only for diagnostical purposes. However, both being encrypted would be very valuable for some audits.""The graphical interface could be made easier to use when you are connecting to different network equipment.""The solution lacks some features when compared to other products.""The integration with SharePoint and Teams should be improved.""We can log in as a local user, and it's fine, but when we login with an Active Directory user, we cannot.""It's difficult to find which conditions have been applied to a report because they are provided by default by ManageEngine. However, with other SIEMs if you want to create a report, they provide details, like which conditions are triggering certain reports. This needs to be there in ManageEngine. It would be good to know which parameter has been applied to the report that is updating the system.""The support needs improvement.""Their technical support should be improved."

More ManageEngine Log360 Cons →

"The other thing is the agent is OSSEC. They needed to create its own agent to help to find threats on the devices that it happens to be installed.""The only complex area of the setup was writing the custom scripts.""The solution already has quite good tools, however, they need better integration tools for linking with Office 365, Google Suite, and so on.""For creating new rules, you have to be familiar with regular expressions. I feel there could be something built-in to make sure that process is easier.""The GUI needs to improve because it's not user-friendly.""The one thing I continue to dislike about the USM is the limitation on reports.""The reporting is mediocre and is something that needs to be improved.""In the future, I would like to see all these features of the solution working properly."
