Strategic threat intelligence has improved detection speed and consistently reduces analyst workload
Anomali can be improved in various aspects. Its AI-driven automation can further advance, and AI-powered investigation summaries can improve. User experience could be enhanced through simplification of workflows. Better board-level cyber risk dashboards could provide easier visualization. Additionally, Anomali could work on simplifying the pricing structure. Although it excels in threat intelligence aggregation and operationalization, stronger GenAI capability, improved executive reporting, and a more intuitive workflow for analysts would further increase SOC efficiency and add more business value. Regarding Anomali's AI capabilities, governance and security are quite good. Anomali has incorporated AI and machine learning primarily to improve correlation and prioritization. These capabilities are valuable but could be more mature. The platform could achieve better threat correlation, prioritization, more anomaly detection, and allow AI to accelerate intelligence analysis while further improving quality and relevance. The accuracy and reliability of Anomali's AI output are fairly reasonable and good. The AI engine works well, but this capability could be improved. Better threat correlation with threat actors, certain indicators of compromise, malware, and campaigns is possible. Threat prioritization could increase, and alert noise could be reduced through further de-duplication. While reasonable, this is not the best available, and other products possibly have more AI maturity, such as Recorded Future and CrowdStrike Falcon.

Good filtering and reporting tools but can be difficult to use
It can scale as needed. It's not a problem. There are different teams using it. We have CSOC, which is internal, which is onshore, then we have a security operations center that is offshore, which would be in India. The onshore team might be a group of three, and the offshore might be a group of five. Likely, we have eight to ten people in total using the product directly.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Anomali has positively impacted our organization with many improvements since we started using it, as we receive many block hits from them, and we can say that our coverage has been extended to 90% because we do MITRE mapping."
"I have seen a return on investment with Anomali, as it improves analyst investigation time, enhances threat visibility, and supports fast incident responses."
"I think it's one of the awesome tools I've worked with to date."
"With Anomali, we benefit by obtaining threat information prior to incidents, making our threat hunts proactive and having incident response plans ready, which saves almost 40% of the time from the traditional model."
"Anomali is a very versatile platform, quite effective, and very fast when it comes to downloading and maintaining the information of the indicators of compromise."
"Anomali has impacted my organization positively because our SOC team, which is actively monitoring all the tools—either SIM, SOAR, or threat intelligence platform—operates in multiple shifts."
"The feature I have found most valuable is credential monitoring. This feature is easy and quick."
"Anomali has positively impacted my organization and my clients by helping them improve threat visibility, accelerate incident response, and make better use of their resources."
"We have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats."
"Less resource consumption in terms of memory and processing."
"This is a very stable solution. It is the most stable ESM that I have worked with."
"This solution allows us to identify connections for all users."
"This product improves visibility, whereas prior to implementing this solution there is no visibility."
"ArcSight Analytics is used to get a deeper insight and threat analysis about the network."
"This solution allows us to identify connections for all users, and we can see the name, login time, IP address, and other information for each connection to each server."
"One of the most valuable features is the alerts."
 

Cons

"I can mention one point regarding improvements for Anomali, which is more enhanced reporting flexibility."
"Pricing and licensing are good, but the costs for purchasing threat feeds are somewhat complicated and a bit on the higher side."
"One more improvement I would mention is regarding compromised credential monitoring. Anomali should increase their capability to fetch details from various dark web solutions where threat actors post compromised credentials."
"Anomali can be improved, specifically the Security Analytics feature, because I feel there is a slight lag in that."
"My experience with Anomali's customer support has not gone so well for us."
"Anomali Enterprise could improve by combining all the other tools' features into one solution."
"A lot of tools can give you many features, such as CTI intelligence and a tax service reduction. However, many people are combining different tools together to have more capabilities. It is up to the consumer whether they want to have multiple tools or have one tool that serves the purpose. Anomali Enterprise could improve by combining all the other tools' features into one solution."
"Anomali can be improved by expanding its capability to capture a broader range of threats because it currently has limitations and may not catch everything occurring in the world, especially from the dark web."
"The ArcSight Analytic is not so easy."
"I faced stability issues with Windows Operating System. The installed connectors hang if they remain idle for a long period of time."
"Their support team could be better. They've gone downhill since their product has been acquired."
"Network integration is very crucial, and you need to have the knowledge to get it done."
"Currently, there are no compatible connectors for this solution, which means we have to depend on FlexConnectors."
"I would like to see integration with automation products, such as Phantom Automation."
"It's a difficult product to navigate, it's complex."
"Customer service has not been up to the mark. They take longer than they should to resolve issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When comparing the price of Anomali Enterprise to other solutions it is in the medium to high range. However, I am satisfied with the price."
"My customers pay a yearly licensing fee for ArcSight Analytics."
"In addition to the costs of standard licensing fees, there is the cost of labor for maintenance."
"It can range between $30,000 and $40,000 USD, and can go up to $500,000 and $600,000 USD."
"ArcSight Analytics is a bit expensive compared with other tools in terms of licensing costs, training, hardware implementation, and support."
"The monthly licensing fee is around $20,000. There aren't any costs in addition to the standard licensing fee."
"This solution is expensive."
