Shitanshu Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers insights into past events and future incidents before they occur
I rate the product a nine out of ten. Organizations should evaluate how the solution will impact their organization and align with their security goals rather than solely focusing on the features the solution offers. The capabilities of a solution may vary, and it's essential to prioritize your specific requirements and choose the one that best meets those needs.
Mokhammad Rakhman - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly dashboard and machine learning capabilities improve threat hunting efficiency
LogRhythm SIEM has strong machine-learning capabilities with behavioral rules and analysis. The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient. Analytics and behavioral analysis help me save time with rule creation. Its scalability allows me to add components as needed. Overall, LogRhythm SIEM offers end-to-end visibility with a reasonable price.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product provides a collective view through the Enterprise Security Manager, offering insights into past events and heuristics about future incidents before they occur and impact the organization."
"It allows us to automate a lot of things with a smaller team."
"It gives us insight into our entire installation, where we are multiple sites, going as far as the East Coast to the Central West Coast."
"The Web Console is my favorite. It enables me, at a glance, to see the health of the environments."
"LogRhythm's dashboard is very good compared to other SIEM solutions since it shows many details."
"LogRhythm SIEM has strong machine-learning capabilities with behavioral rules and analysis."
"Our clients enjoy having one dashboard to monitor their environments in real time."
"AXON has the ability to add and compare use cases."
"The most useful feature that I've found so far is the search function. I like all the different ways you're able to search through metadata and the different ways you're able to correlate or search through logs to find out what's going on."
 

Cons

"ArcSight Security Open Data Platform needs to improve stability. Support has deteriorated after the acquisition of OpenText. It should also improve market awareness."
"The web and on-premise console interface should be the same instead of having a separate engine for each."
"Sometimes, the tool fails to get the correlated events that triggered the alerts."
"Move it to Linux. I would like to see it get off the SQL Server."
"We had a little bit of difficulty implementing a disaster recovery situation because it was leveraging only Microsoft native DNS and it wouldn't work with our Infoblox DNS deployment that we use in our environment. They've been working on that behind the scenes."
"The software needs to work on its pricing."
"The reporting on the dashboard should be improved from a management perspective. It would be helpful if they adjusted the colors and the presentation to make things clearer and easier to read."
"The product's initial setup phase is pretty complex."
"My big thing is the easability. I don't like to go to two different systems. The fat client that you have to install to configure it, then the web console which is just for reporting and analysis. These features need to collapse, and it needs to be in a single solution. Going through the web solution in the future is the way to do it, because right now, it is a bit cumbersome."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"LogRhythm's licensing is based on MPS. There are some add-on features like advanced UEBA, the cloud component for advanced UEBA, and SIEM."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"Everything is expensive with LogRhythm, and you don't get anything for free."
"On a scale of one to ten, I'd rate the pricing of this solution as a seven - not too expensive but not cheap either. Regarding licensing costs, it varies depending on factors like being a partner or an end user, but there are no additional costs aside from standard licensing fees for the basic SIEM solution."
"I have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. We went from not detecting them to detecting them. We can actually pick up what is anomalous in our network now."
"LogRhythm's pricing and licensing is extremely competitive and it's one of the top three reasons we continue to invest in the platform."
"I give the price a six out of ten."
"The product is inexpensive than other tools."
