Experienced easy deployment and stable performance but user support needs improvement
The most valuable features are that BetterCloud had a much more sophisticated workflow management toolset than Google itself. It was easy to build onboarding and offboarding workflows, which could handle the desired complexity versus out-of-the-box Google. BetterCloud allowed us to reallocate storage so all files created by a departing member would get reallocated to the manager, thus retaining access. BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment. BetterCloud now offers SaaS platform tracking capabilities, a key, previously missing feature.

Centralized environment supports big data while facing integration challenges
The customization in Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is more difficult compared to other solutions. At the operation level, we are not facing many challenges with automating things using Securonix Next-Gen SIEM, but at the admin level, we have many challenges where log parsing is causing issues and compatibility is not present. The primary technology challenge we have is not at the security tools level. For example, firewall Cisco and others are capable. However, specific to product, for SAP, we are using certain products, and developing custom connectors for each product, especially the internal applications, is difficult, and Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is not up to the mark.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You simply cannot use Google Apps without it, so it's a no brainer."
"BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment."
"The two major features of this product we extensively use are the UEBA capability and the multi-tenant approach with the centralized data logs system. Customers are very happy with these features."
"The solution's AI features reduce the need for manual analysis and help in decision-making. It displays the report in seconds. It saves my resources three to four hours of work."
"The user interface is easy to learn and navigate."
"I find customer service to be very good."
"One of the valuable features of Securonix is the auto-incident creation, which was not available two or three years ago."
"The software includes user behavior interactions, dashboards, and training capabilities."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is their analytics platform where they have the open security data-link, which they introduced. This is typically different from the other vendors."
"The detection of threats and reduction of false positive alarms as compared to other solutions are valuable features. It has improved threat detection response and reduced a lot of noise from false positives as compared to our previous SIEM solutions."
 

Cons

"The account support team was weak in engagement and communication, contributing to the decision to move to more comprehensive solutions."
"Would love for it to be able to replace our SSO as well as provide connectivity and the same level of automation to our other SaaS products."
"Securonix could open up information regarding the indicators of compromise or cyber-threat intelligence databases that they use."
"When they did upgrades or applied patches, sometimes, there was downtime, which required the backfill of data."
"Parsing needs to be improved. Every time we integrate a new, specific data source, we face a lot of problems in parsing, even for the old data source."
"It could be improved a little bit more for admin users. There should be more administrative options related to security for admin users. For example, for forensic purposes, the admin should be able to stop a specific user from erasing some information. I would be helpful in certain situations, such as during an internal fraud."
"Other than issues with the training, there have been issues with the encryption."
"Regarding the analysis of security events on the SOC side, Securonix Next-Gen SIEM needs to improve its automation capabilities."
"Sometimes, the injectors lag and are not loading. It would be nice if that could be improved."
"We would like to see better integration with other products."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Licensing is based on events per second (EPS), costing between $50 to $60 per EPS."
"We have a license from our 5.0, so that license just continued. We paid them the extra cloud-hosting costs for a year which were about $300,000."
"I rate the pricing an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is very expensive. It is a pretty expensive tool."
"The pricing is fine compared to the market but I think that at some point the competitors will catch up on price."
"The pricing is good, but by adding more things, the licensing becomes more complex because an EPS license fluctuates a lot. This licensing concept is going to be problematic in the long run."
"The solution's price is double the competitors."
"Compared to other known brands in the industry, the overall cost of the licenses is a bit higher than what customers expect."
"We have an annual license. We pay $200,000 for the base licensing and we pay another $50,000 for the software as a service."
