Pros
"The technical support team is good...It is a scalable solution.""Our return on investment for implementing ArcSight Logger over the past 12 months has been positive.""In terms of ArcSight Logger's most valuable feature, it is their scalability. ArcSight's real advantage is its scalability because they have two layers, including the logger layer.""We check a lot of logs in ArcSight Logger because we're running a massive database platform.""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.""We haven't had any crashes or bugs.

Cons
"I would rate the technical support only 5 out of 10. The technical support is not satisfactory.""It is really difficult to work in ArcSight Logger, as it is very slow.""We have had problems with archiving.""The solution should make it possible to integrate network analysis features.""Using the ArcSight Logger dashboard is not particularly intuitive or efficient, so it is important to be trained in its use.""The console in older versions is not user-friendly.""I think the ArcSight team should try to simplify legacy products for the customers, because that product is not easy to use or to work with. It needs more more competency or appeal to use. We hope Micro Focus is trying to resolve this.""The product's connectors should work better and the user manuals need an update."
