Sukkanta Banerjee - PeerSpot reviewer
A way for users to manage their credentials on the go using a stable, and scalable app
I give the solution an eight out of ten. It's hard to comment on the number of users because the feature is completely for corporate employees who have Blackberry devices, so it's hard to track how many users there are. I advise making your decision to use the solution based on the usage in the company or the demand of the business, which you are running based on the demand.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The mail is without a doubt the most valuable."
"The solution is very easy to set up."
"The vulnerability manager and the file integration are very good."
"I can easily check (in one place) all the logs and data in relation to attacks. It also gives me an overview if a server is not configured properly."
"Allowed us to help our customers satisfy compliance needs around logging and monitoring."
"Easy to use, scalable, stable, and very intuitive platform that provides protection against security threats."
"There are multiple tools for information security. The solution includes all the latest advances on the network and host intrusion detection systems."
"The other big selling feature for us was its integration capabilities with all the other security-based products."
"The best feature of this product is the ease of use. It is extremely easy to set up and get going. This is a very useful tool for a small organization."
"Using the communication within the security device, it is easier to create plugins."
 

Cons

"The user interface could be improved. It was clunky at times."
"The solution can be improved by adding more features in which the content could be synced."
"As this software is in the cloud, you do not have control on updates and general changes which are happening."
"AlienVault must improve their correlation feature. Some of the events do not match with the correlation rules and some of the correlation events are false-positive."
"The GUI needs to improve because it's not user-friendly."
"It would be hard for any legitimate MSSP to use it."
"Source material on the forums to be more up-to-date with the changes happening within the product. Forums being out-of-date with information due to the changes makes troubleshooting a little more difficult - specific to the HIDS agents."
"Adding a parsing interface for the customers would make AT&T AlienVault USM better."
"This solution could be easier to use."
"AlienVault cannot automatically respond to threats like other SIEM solutions, such as Sentinel and LogRhythm. Most of our clients are far away, so it's often challenging to handle alerts when they come up on our dashboard."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am not able to remember the amount, but users have to subscribe for a certain amount, so once they subscribe, the amount gets sent."
"We had a licensing package of $500,000 for three years."
"It's affordable for most customers."
"They are a little more expensive than Microsoft."
"The pricing is a good value. The key thing is that for the new product, the licensing of it, is subscription-based and it's based on data. Clients need to be really careful when thinking about that, because odds are they're going to need to put a lot more data into it than what they initially estimate, which is going to drive their subscription costs up."
"They charge a license based on the storage. ATT AlienVault USM is a less expensive solution than IBM QRadar."
"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."
"It is a product that is priced in a medium range, making it neither a cheap nor a costly product."
"Pricing is very competitive with other products and you get much more functionality from AlienVault."
"Its price is in the medium to upper range."

The most valuable feature of the solution is the ease of deployment that it provides to users. The integrations that the product has with third-party applications are useful.

There are scalability issues due to a 60 TB limit, which restricts its use for large customers like banks. It is also limited when used with bigger products and has complex password requirements.
