More ArcSight Analytics Pros →

"It is a solution that helps test and measure customer satisfaction.""We are really pleased with Splunk and its features. It would be practically impossible to function without it. To provide a general overview of the system, it's important to note that the standard log files are currently around 250 gigabytes per day. It would be impossible to manually walk through these logs by hand, which is why automation is essential.""The solution appears to be stable, although we haven't used it heavily.""It's straightforward in terms of configuration and troubleshooting and log management and monitoring as well. These are the edge points in addition to it being a modular solution where you can capitalize on your current licenses with extra licensing models, which can match the customer's business requirement and it can help the customer to design or to actually plan for their own roadmap.""The solution is definitely scalable.""This intelligent user behavior analytics package is easy to configure and use while remaining feature filled.""The solution is extremely scalable. Our customers are regularly scaling up after installing Splunk.""The most valuable feature is being able to take data and put it into other systems so that we could see the output, and to see where we need to apply our focus."

Cons
"Currently, there are no compatible connectors for this solution, which means we have to depend on FlexConnectors.""ArcSight is not a user-friendly solution and the interface needs to be improved.""[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.""Inactive connections from servers, which are upgraded or downgraded within a VM, should be automatically revoked.""The interactive dashboard is complicated and you need to have training in order to use it, so I think that it could be made easier to use.""I would like to see integration with automation products, such as Phantom Automation.""I would like to see orchestration."

More ArcSight Analytics Cons →

"Currently, a lot of network operations need improvement. We still need people to handle incidents. Our vision is to leverage status and convert it directly from the network devices. It would be ideal if we could take action using APIs and API code and remove manual processes.""It could be easier to scale the solution if you are using it on-premise, not in the cloud.""The price of Splunk UBA is too high.""There are occasional bugs.""I'm not aware of any lacking features.""The solution is much more expensive than relative competitors like ArcSight or LogRhythm. It makes it hard to sell to customers sometimes.""We'd like the ability to do custom searches.""I would like improved downward integration with other tools such as McAfee and other GCP solutions."
