"The ability to browse logs from multiple sources at the same time really speeds up root cause analysis."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is security management for PCI DSS."
"Every activity on the firewall is recorded, and notifications are sent with this solution."
"The USM is a work horse, no matter what devices or the number of logs we throw at it, the system processes them in real time, correlates the events, and alerts on only events that need human review."
"Vulnerability scanning helped out shortcomings of what was not patched in the past and what needed to be patched. This assisted with fine tuning the environment for compliance."
"It allows for a lot of out-of-the-box features: vuln scanning, HIDS/HIPS, and IDS."
"AlienVault has an advanced component within one package. With this, we can cover more area with one solution."
"The most valuable feature is vulnerability management because it gives you insight into your environment to know what systems need to be updated or patched."
"We're using it more for reporting, that's all. We're using it to help our customers to pass any kind of audits that they receive."
"The solution takes a little bit of time when we load the website for the first time."
"Rapid7 InsightOps could improve by making the search query better. There are times when the search query is broken and it does not find anything."
"There are a few things I would like to do with a few more complex queries which I am not able to do right now, because it is a SaaS solution."
"Improvement is needed in the dashboard of InsightOps, especially for less technical users."
"Since I used the beta, improvements are to be expected. The dashboard options could have been clearer, but I believe it is more a problem with the limited documentation available at the time."
"We would like more plugins. This being the main point of improvement which would benefit the users."
"I've been using it just for my own personal upskilling in terms of how the product works. At the moment, it is pretty straightforward and simple, and it is working how it is supposed to. The feedback would come once it is deployed to customer sites. They'll be using it on a more frequent basis, and that's when the feedback would come in terms of the areas in which they're facing issues or are looking for simplicity."
"More complimentary training needs to be done for use with this tool. If you get into a bind, then it will cost you."
"Pay attention to false-positive event automatic correlations."
"I think plugin management should be self-service on AlienVault USM. The other product is self-service but on the USM side. You have to submit a ticket then AT&T creates and updates the plugins."
"The GUI needs to improve because it's not user-friendly."
"The reporting is mediocre and is something that needs to be improved."
"The one thing I continue to dislike about the USM is the limitation on reports."
