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.

The alerting capabilities in ManageEngine Log360 needed work for creating alarms for the cases where alarms were needed and for prioritizing the alarms for criticality. ManageEngine Log360 uses PostgreSQL as its own database but does not automatically parse and allow creation of alarms the way it does in MS SQL. There is less support in PostgreSQL than in MS SQL. The ability to create alarms based on parsed data in the same way MS SQL does would have been beneficial and would have saved considerable time. On the PostgreSQL side, it was not parsing much, which required a lot of manual work. This support is needed, and I am sure many companies need this support on PostgreSQL. MS SQL features that were missing in ManageEngine Log360 that should be included in the future are those that automatically parse an MS SQL database and provide options for setting alarms. On the PostgreSQL side, this is not the same. At minimum, PostgreSQL support should reach the MS SQL level of features and support that ManageEngine Log360 presents.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats."
"ArcSight Analytics has improved our system and network policy monitoring."
"The most valuable feature is the log monitoring."
"We have seen a measurable decrease, by about 20 percent, in the mean time to detect and respond to risks."
"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."
"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."
"We use this solution for monitoring our network."
"Our organization has improved because ArcSight allows multiple integrations with multiple systems which we did not do before using the product."
"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 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."
"It is easier to deploy than are other SIEMs, which is great. You can also get an overview of your environment, which is very handy."
"The reports that you can run are really nice."
"It is nice to be able to monitor and to have notifications."
"The reports that you can run are really nice; they give you a lot of standard reports, which are nice, and the ability to run some custom ones, too."
"ManageEngine Log360 could integrate with all systems, making it possible to integrate everything to the central location, which made it a useful and necessary tool."
"The product is very user-friendly."
 

Cons

"Currently, there are no compatible connectors for this solution, which means we have to depend on FlexConnectors."
"The UX for the SOC analyst does not match that of the competitors, and therefore needs improvement."
"ArcSight's features that can be improved include anything related to its visualization capabilities and user friendliness."
"Their support team could be better. They've gone downhill since their product has been acquired."
"The reporting and the way it is worded needs to be improved in future releases. The dashboards are quite poorly designed."
"[There is] complexity in maintaining it and managing it. It's not easy to use. It requires a lot of training."
"Their support team could be better."
"Network integration is very crucial, and you need to have the knowledge to get it done."
"There are issues when we log into Log360 from the computer that is hosting the system. For example, Linux cannot connect or log into Log360 with the Active Directory user."
"The on-premises solution is very slow. When I move to another tab inside Log360 or in the SIEM, even if my system is running on 36 GB and with a high processor, it takes a lot of time to get into the alert page or the search page."
"There are issues with stability."
"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."
"The matter of the data retention needs to be addressed."
"Their technical support should be improved."
"The support needs improvement."
"On the PostgreSQL side, it was not parsing much, which required a lot of manual work."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In addition to the costs of standard licensing fees, there is the cost of labor for maintenance."
"My customers pay a yearly licensing fee for ArcSight Analytics."
"The monthly licensing fee is around $20,000. There aren't any costs in addition to the standard licensing fee."
"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."
"This solution is expensive."
"Its pricing is definitely huge compared to some of the other SIEMs. Its price should be improved."
"ManageEngine Log360 is expensive compared to other products."
"My client has a yearly license. I think the cost is not expensive compared to that of other SIEMs, given the service it is providing."
"Affordable pricing is provided by the solution."
"There is a cost for each feature used."
