More CA Unified Communications Monitor Pros →

"Analytics is the most valuable feature. The business service summaries in the dashboards and the correlations for the SIEM are also valuable features.""We have found the most important features in Fortinet FortiSIEM to be the correlation, file utility check, latest file, and hash changes. These features are important for us.""FortiSIEM provides a single PIN to monitor SOC and NOC. It's a nice tool for integration and monitoring. It provides multiple categories for monitoring based on security designations like low, medium, and high.""Fortinet FortiSIEM's most valuable feature is the simplicity in handling multi-tenancy and the ability to switch between different clients at the same time. That was handled flawlessly.""We're able to get real-timec as well as our customer networks that we're monitoring at all times.""I like FortiSIEM because it integrates natively with our other Fortinet solutions and the Fortinet Fabric, but it also integrates with Cisco, Palo Alto and other security fabrics.""The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiSIEM are the SD-WAN, Global LAN, and application controls.""Fortinet FortiSIEM provides good detection against advanced threats."

Cons
"All the features and functions of the solution can be improved.""The solution should have automatic baseline detection."

More CA Unified Communications Monitor Cons →

"There could be more AI features included in the product.""FortiSIEM could be better integrated with other vendors.""I would like to see more integration with other platforms.""The only drawback is the licensing model. It can get expensive if you want to integrate more solutions.""I would like to see easier implementation in the future.""We expect the latest patch from Fortinet FortiSIEM to give the ability to work with signature files.""Sometimes, if there are changes made by a user on a database server, it can be difficult to get that information on the fly. I would like to see a situation where once I specify a user with the database server I need, and with the changes they have performed on that, I don't need to continue my search pattern to drill down just to get the information.""FortiSIEM is not a market leader in the SIEM space."
