Featured Reviews

Zuhair Hasan - PeerSpot reviewer
Manager, Information Technology Security at Nesma
Has good integration capability and provides information and events but improvement is needed in information retrieval speed
The best features are the comprehensive event collection and analysis. Once set up properly, we receive all events and information. The team analyzes our data and presents incidents to us. We can communicate with their team to escalate and resolve incidents. It has a feature we use to search for information about our environment and past incidents. This is very valuable. The integration capability is very good - the ClearSkies SaaS NG SIEM team is collaborative. We've integrated most of our systems, including EDR and NDR. They have agents to collect events from servers and assets.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The integration capability is very good - the ClearSkies SaaS NG SIEM team is collaborative. We've integrated most of our systems, including EDR and NDR. They have agents to collect events from servers and assets."
"ClearSkies is the best for software as a service and small organizations with up to 500 employees."
"The correlation rules and the user platform are most valuable."
"AlienVault has streamlined our security functions by combining several different functions into one package."
"We have benefited greatly due to gaining the visibility we need for different instances."
"It allows you to define what alerts you want to see, or not to see, as well as if you want them grouped, or ungrouped."
"Here we can get file integrity monitoring and a vulnerability assessment tool together with SIEM."
"There are multiple tools for information security. The solution includes all the latest advances on the network and host intrusion detection systems."
"AlienVault provides you with a unified view for all aspects of what is going on in your environment."
"Overall, I find that this product is amazing."
"The pricing and licensing are at its best in the market when compared with other vendor's SIEM products."
 

Cons

"The main issue for improvement is the platform's slowness in presenting information. Retrieving information can take a little time when clicking on something."
"They can add behavior analytics and AI or machine learning technology."
"They can add behavior analytics and AI or machine learning technology. They also improve their correlation engine. In addition to collecting logs from devices, they can collect the traffic and then correlate these logs and the traffic information."
"They should improve the reporting capabilities. Different functions to customize reports should be added."
"Creating directives is a pain on its own, but editing them can be a nightmare filled with tedious unnecessary steps."
"In the future, I would like to see all these features of the solution working properly."
"The vulnerability reporting needs to have options to be able to sort or customize the output."
"ROI has not yet been measured."
"Search performance can be slow. The Raw Logs feature is painfully slow. And if we're talking about the newer, the Anywhere product, you can't even schedule reports on the thing. There are probably a dozen other features I'd really like to see there, but that would be one of the biggies."
"I knocked off a point for the learning curve compared to some of the competition and another point for the lack of native user behavior analytics but for the money you really can't do any better."
"The only that I can think of is that is not ideal is sending Windows Server logs to their device, to the system."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They have changed the pricing policy. Its price is competitive. Its price is less than half of the price of QRadar, LogRhythm, and Splunk."
"Regarding pricing, I'd say it's in the middle range. Pricing is very good compared to others."
"I rate the price of AT&T AlienVault USM a four out of five."
"The licensing fees are dependent on usage."
"Use an MSSP instead. It is much cheaper."
"AT&T AlienVault USM is an expensive solution and we pay for the license and the support separately. We paid for the license and support for three years."
"They charge a license based on the storage. ATT AlienVault USM is a less expensive solution than IBM QRadar."
"Its price is much lower than McAfee ESM."
"Do the one month trial and try to work out the kinks during it, as it has free support and service hours."
"It is affordable, and it also has many features that the premium products such as ArcSight and QRadar have. It is a very good platform for a SIEM solution. Everything is included in the price."
