We performed a comparison between ArcSight Logger and Google Cloud's operations suite (formerly Stackdriver) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Log Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We check a lot of logs in ArcSight Logger because we're running a massive database platform."
"The most valuable feature is the level of detail that you can see about certain events, even when they do not come up in the console."
"The most valuable feature is the search capability, which is simple to use."
"ArcSight's robustness is its most valuable feature."
"The ability to customize the solution in great detail is its most valuable features. We can customize the use cases and also have the ability to do scripting. We can personalize our dashboard as well. The scalability the solution offers is quite impressive."
"The log digestion features from threat intelligence platforms like Recorded Future or Talos are valuable."
"We haven't had any crashes or bugs. It is stable."
"Some of the most valuable features I really appreciate are the performance, how quick the solution is, and how easy it is to create a query."
"The features that I have found most valuable are its graphs - if I need any statistics, in Kubernetes or Kong level or VPN level, I can quickly get the reports."
"Provides visibility into the performance uptime."
"Google's technical support is very good."
"We find the solution to be stable."
"Our company has a corporate account for Google Cloud and so our systems and clusters integrate really well."
"It's easy to use."
"I like the monitoring feature."
"The cloud login enables us to get our logs from the different platforms that we currently use."

"The speed of Logger indexing and searching for certain bugs for some queries that we provide could be improved. It can handle a huge number of logs but it can be improved."
"The solution could be improved in maintenance settings."
"The platform is quite expensive. They should reduce its cost."
"The product's connectors should work better and the user manuals need an update."
"I had some latency issues for two months. I had to increase our storage capacity significantly to reduce the latency."
"It is really difficult to work in ArcSight Logger, as it is very slow."
"It would be better if the product is cheaper."
"The next release should have AI capabilities."
"It could be more stable."
"It is difficult to estimate in advance how much something is going to cost."
"The logging functionality could be better."
"While we are satisfied with the overall performance, in certain cases we must add additional metrics and additional tools like Grafana and Dynatrace."
"It could be even more automated."
"Lacking sufficient operations documentation."
"If I want to track any round-trip or breakdowns of my response times, I'm not able to get it. My request goes through various levels of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and comes back to my client machine. Suppose that my request has taken 10 seconds overall, so if I want to break it down, to see where the delay is happening within my architecture, I am not able to find that out using Stackdriver."
"This solution could be improved if it offered the ability to analyze charts, such as a solution like Kibana."
