"It basically helps us. We have to stay in compliance with certain issues with some of our customers. We have to have these types of tools in place for protecting our network and our data. We're in the aerospace industry, so we have a lot of defense contracts. So, all those guys will make sure that we're protecting their information, and it does a good job in that aspect."
"The reports that you can run are really nice."
"The solution could be improved by including XDR, remediation and Sandbox."
"We haven't had any stability issues."
"The most valuable features for us are the application logs monitoring and the dashboard, which provides a single-pane view of all the ongoing activities."
"It is nice to be able to monitor and to have notifications."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"The interface of the solution is good."
"One of the things I like about it is its interface. When it comes to generating reports on VMs and stuff, it's very quick. This is very handy for the technical team, who need to generate reports quickly. So that's really good."
"The most valuable feature is server virtualization. It's been very useful."
"The system's management and its alerts are the most valuable aspects of the solution."
"It is a very useful tool if you have a VMware environment."
"What I like is that you can have different storage locations for different applications."
"Our current costs are too high, and this tool will help us to better optimize our infrastructure."
"We are using it because we have a VMware product. It has its own built in dashboards for VMware products, and that's a good thing."
"It takes a little bit of time for Log360 to actually learn your environment."
"The solution lacks some features when compared to other products."
"Most times log sheets are not assigned well."
"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."
"There is room for improvement, especially in the reporting aspect. The reports are not as good as those in Splunk."
"The graphical interface could be made easier to use when you are connecting to different network equipment."
"The integration with SharePoint and Teams should be improved."
"The matter of the data retention needs to be addressed."
"It's great for VMware, but it would be good if they had third-party logins."
"Log retention should have more options for user control."
"The monitoring landscape is getting bigger. When it comes to infrastructure monitoring, we need more visibility. VMware needs to integrate more related applications and third-party products. That would make it more appealing to an audience beyond the VMware team."
"I would like to see more tutorials or at least an introduction video from the supplier, so you can become proficient and get the most out of the solution. You might not get the full benefit from a logging or reporting solution because you might not have a particular tool enabled. You could leave something out of your analysis because you aren't aware of it or you don't know how to set it up."
"It needs better integration with third-party analytics tools."
"The tool is expensive."
"In the VMware environment, one area for improvement is the handling of VM failovers due to host failures, such as unexpected shutdowns from hardware issues. Currently, High Availability (HA) doesn't seem to recognize whether the VMs are online during failover, treating them as offline or unavailable."
"Technical support should be improved."
