Consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
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.

Enterprise Account Manager South at a outsourcing company with 201-500 employees
Advanced analytics have transformed our threat detection and streamlined incident investigations
I would appreciate seeing additional dashboards in Exabeam Fusion SIEM or perhaps more options or the ability to customize them further. While we can customize them currently, there may be additional options available. I value the outcomes navigator because it matches the log piece to the use cases, which is helpful. The correlation rules are excellent. I am interested in whether there are additional threat intelligence feeds available that we could use, whether we can integrate our own, or if we could ingest different ones.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a very stable solution. It is the most stable ESM that I have worked with."
"The ability to correlate different logs is the solution's most valuable feature."
"I like their filtering and their reporting tools, I like their integration with many other different tool sets, which is similar to other products as well, the solution is easy to implement, and I have found the product to be quite stable and scalable."
"One of the most valuable features is the alerts."
"The data collection and the integration with different products are valuable features."
"This solution allows us to identify connections for all users."
"The correlation engine is good."
"This product improves visibility, whereas prior to implementing this solution there is no visibility."
"Exabeam includes machine learning features and out-of-the-box rules that we rely on."
"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."
"The way it can connect with AWS is very useful, and the integrations are pretty good."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam is the timeline creation based on log sources, which helps in security investigations."
"The solution's initial setup process is easy."
"I have customers that like the EUBA functionality of it; the solution has the ability to build a session, basically, pulling a lot of information together, for example, everything a user does in a specific timeframe, which is quite helpful."
"The solution has great technology, it's a very user-friendly product and a very comprehensive technology, the security on offer is very good, and cost-wise, compared to other technology, it's affordable."
"The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior."
 

Cons

"Inactive connections from servers, which are upgraded or downgraded within a VM, should be automatically revoked."
"Currently, there are no compatible connectors for this solution, which means we have to depend on FlexConnectors."
"The interactive dashboard is more complicated comparing to his concurrent Qradar and you need to have training in order to do complexe configuration, so I think that it could be made easier to use."
"[There is] complexity in maintaining it and managing it. It's not easy to use. It requires a lot of training."
"The GUI and dashboards are very basic and need to be improved."
"Network integration is very crucial, and you need to have the knowledge to get it done."
"ArcSight is not a user-friendly solution and the interface needs to be improved."
"The ArcSight Analytic is not so easy."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"Exabeam's reporting dashboard could have included a filtering option to filter by the most recent detection."
"One area that needs improvement is interacting with Exabeam's API. There was a headache regarding the API; the documentation wasn't clear, and the syntax wasn't very precise."
"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."
"Exabeam lacks customizable dashboards, which might be a limitation if visualization is a key requirement."
"The product is good but the organization is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate."
"There is a lack of Indonesian support, it would benefit us to have more support for the customers."
"The only problem is that the UI is not very impressive."
