Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Customer service is number one and the best."

"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays."

"Their SRA solution, the Secure Remote Access solution, is very useful for industrial environments."

"The main advantage of Claroty, when compared to its competitors, is integrated secure remote access."

"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays."

"Claroty assigns a score based on how well you are doing in the course. If you skip a video, your score decreases, making it essential to watch the content attentively."

"The solution's most valuable feature is the map, which shows everything that is connected and communicates with each other."

"I appreciate the active coding, deep inspection of packages, and data retrieval. The tool covers information about assets and attack vectors, which I find superior to other tools. Based on alerts, I create reports detailing how an attacker can penetrate the plant, both externally and internally."

More Claroty Platform pros

"FortiSIEM sends an email or SMS notifications to admins when there are significant incidents. It's a highly efficient way of responding to incidents."

"FortiSIEM's best features are the dashboards and customization."

"Fortinet FortiSIEM provides good detection against advanced threats."

"The CMDB and the device discovery features are most valuable."

"The stability is very reliable. It offers very good performance."

"We're able to get real-timec as well as our customer networks that we're monitoring at all times."

"There are things like dashboards and reports (pre-configured and custom) that let me know that things are operating the way they should be, and when they are not."

"It is used as an alerting platform."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM pros

Cons

"We face issues in the alert investigation area because it does not properly give the alert communication patterns."

"There should be AI security solutions implemented."

"There is room for improvement in the user interface to make it more vibrant and interactive, similar to IT tools. Improvements could also be made in the Secure Remote Access (SRA) user interaction and graphical representations of recordings."

"The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."

"The graphical user interface is quite poor."

"For improvement, I think the training could be more practical. We have external training, but they're mostly theoretical. I want the solution to provide hands-on lab experience to help users learn better."

"I think the only issue is that the hardware Claroty uses is expensive."

"Claroty Platform could improve the pricing to get more acceptability in the market."

More Claroty Platform cons

"Its training can be improved. Its price also needs to be improved."

"The challenge I face with Fortinet FortiSIEM is the lack of support."

"FortiSIEM is a bit resource-hungry, so work should be done on hardware resource utilization to consume less hardware."

"They could work on their documentation. If there's anything about the solution that needs improvement, it's that. For example, documentation already is on a very high level but specifically on the CLI there are tons of features which can be fine-tuned and thousands of commands are very difficult to document. If they could make this easier, it would improve the overall solution."

"The biggest thing that could be better is a quicker response to support cases."

"Network detection and response is a separate product."

"When an alert triggers in Fortinet FortiSIEM, the layout or format can feel limited"

"The log collection and configuration management are not great."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing for physical devices is cheap, but the software version is expensive. The software version costs around 26-28 dollars. I was surprised and even double-checked. It was shocking."

"It's a bit expensive compared to other solutions."

"The tool is quite expensive."

"We pay for a license for FortiSIEM. We pay for the license and renewal."

"The tool is really expensive. For what the tool does for our team, the price is fair."

"This is probably more on the lower cost end of the spectrum compared to competing products. Fortinet's license model is based on events per second, which makes sense, but that's not typical. It makes it very hard to calculate what your costs are going to be as you scale the platform because some log sources, such as firewall logs, are very noisy, and there are lots and lots of events per second, but some of them are not. So, it becomes a bit of a science experiment trying to guess what your costs are going to be as you scale the solution. This is where other competing products perhaps have a more straightforward license model."

"FortiSIEM's licensing is based on EPS, and its pricing is competitive in the market."

"Its price can be better. We are Fortinet partners, so we can get discounts, but its price can be an issue at the beginning for others. There is a licensing scheme for every case. There are three licensing schemes that we can choose from."

"The price of Fortinet FortiSIEM was reasonable compared to other solutions."

"Pricing is determined based on the customer's budget."

"They have a yearly subscription."
