Enables automated threat intelligence sorting and enhances proactive threat hunting capabilities
You have to have at least a threat intelligence background or a SOC analyst background to use it, as that's the information you'll dig around with in there. If you don't have that kind of knowledge, it probably can be a little hard to use, but they do provide training. They offer training not only for how to use the platform but also some basic threat intelligence training to explain what these things are and what these terms mean. My company is a customer of Anomali. I would recommend it to other people. I would advise making sure you don't pick it without testing other products and have your use cases well thought out and documented before testing, so you know it will solve the problems you're trying to address. Keep an open mind with it and realize that whatever you can dream of, you can probably do with the platform. Overall, I would rate Anomali an eight out of ten.
Stephen-Armstrong - PeerSpot reviewer
The SIEM provides a user-friendly UI experience
When events come into the system, the dashboard categorizes them by the highest risk score, not when they appear on the system. When you've got multiple ongoing incidents you can only see the highest risk score at the top of the list rather than the most recent detection. Exabeam's reporting dashboard could have included a filtering option to filter by the most recent detection.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I have found Cyber threat intelligence (CTI) very useful and concise. The solution is easy to use."
"The most valuable aspect of Anomali is the threat modeling capability."
"The feature I have found most valuable is credential monitoring. This feature is easy and quick."
"We now have a very robust collection of threat intelligence based on the capabilities that Anomali provides."
"It is user-friendly and quite simple to use."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
"Exabeam includes machine learning features and out-of-the-box rules that we rely on."
"The setup is not difficult. It was easy."
"The solution's initial setup process is easy."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam is the timeline creation based on log sources, which helps in security investigations."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is the easy-to-use user interface."
"The ThreatHunter in Advanced Analytics is the most valuable. It helps analyze compromised assets and provides analysis for any entity within my client's environment."
 

Cons

"An area for improvement is the intelligence sharing within the Anomali community. The tagging system can be inconsistent, as any company can use any tags for their reporting."
"Support in the past has been top-notch, but recent trends indicate that it has taken a back seat, as we often don't get answers for days."
"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."
"Less code in integration would be nice when building blocks."
"Exabeam lacks customizable dashboards, which might be a limitation if visualization is a key requirement."
"The solution's reporting and dashboarding could be improved."
"The only problem is that the UI is not very impressive."
"We use the on-prem Exabeam product and face limitations using the web UI and administration of custom models and rules."
"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
"Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance."
"The organzation is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate"
"We still have questions surrounding hardware deployment."
 

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."
"Exabeam is not a cheap solution."
"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
"There is an annual license required to use Exabeam Fusion SIEM. The price of the solution should be reduced."
"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
"The solution is expensive."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
