Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Axiom Team has positively impacted my organization mainly in terms of cost, as we have reduced our logging cost by approximately half."
"Axiom Team has positively impacted the organization by greatly reducing logging costs."
"For what it can do and the cost, it was the best SIEM tool!"
"AlienVault has allowed us to help our customers satisfy compliance needs around logging and monitoring (HIPAA, PCI, etc.) and has also provided a comprehensive platform that goes beyond just being a SIEM."
"Easy to use, scalable, stable, and very intuitive platform that provides protection against security threats."
"We had used previous products and found AlienVault centralized the logging for our security."
"With AlienVault we are able to respond to incidents and take necessary action faster than we could before without the solution in place."
"The asset management of nodes has been a large help in terms of being able to track applications with more detail and have changes made being monitored into one source."
"I would encourage others to go with this solution because it is easy to deploy, and it provides good tools to know more about your network and the traffic on it."
"The USM is a work horse, no matter what devices or the number of logs we throw at it, the system processes them in real time, correlates the events, and alerts on only events that need human review."
 

Cons

"Axiom Team can be improved by ingesting logs faster, if possible."
"There are many reports included but would be nice to have better access to the data."
"The one thing I continue to dislike about the USM is the limitation on reports."
"Support can be slow at times, but the quality is high. Posted knowledge base articles could use improvement."
"Search performance can be slow. The Raw Logs feature is painfully slow."
"Those tools could be improved because AlienVault is a SIEM, and it added all these other features."
"I want to see more compliance management capability. The quality of integrations seems to be a little bit low."
"The reporting aspect could be improved. While there are a lot of different options available, there are still pieces which are missing."
"Upgrading the network cards (from 1GB to 10GB) was not “supported” on the appliance, so we had to purchase a second one as a sensor."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I don't know exactly, but I know it is based on the number of logs and the retention duration, such as 30 days or something like that. So, the smallest package is about 500 a month for 30 days of logs. There is a virtual machine. You need resources for it. It is a log collecting VM. They provide the software, and you just have to load a virtual machine. So, you're going to incur some CPU RAM and storage for wherever this log collecting appliance is running, which typically is in our cloud and on our platform for the customer."
"We pay around $12,000 a year including storage."
"The price of this solution is reasonable, which is one of the reasons why we selected it over other solutions."
"We ran a few PoCs. The price and feature set were the best with AlienVault."
"AlienVault is certainly not nearly as expensive as Splunk or QRadar. It's decently priced, but I don't have the exact figure."
"It's very reasonably priced. It was one of the lowest among the ones I looked at. Licensing is pretty flexible. They can do a two-year or a three-year, even a one-year, perhaps."
"It allows you to do a lot with a small price tag... The pricing is the best on the market."
"We checked out several competitors. For what it can do and the cost, it was the best option!"
