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.

A solid SIEM solution that should improve technical support and online resources to be easier to use
A big problem with the product is that we don't have much professional experience in Israel installing, implementing, and integrating this product. There is not enough of a knowledge base. There is no support for this product in this country, so problems have to be resolved through global technical teams. We like to work locally because of the language, and when the product is only supported outside the country, it's a little difficult to implement and use this product. Moreover, AI is something that must be added immediately. Artificial intelligence is a part of the competitors' products, and it's not been implemented for us.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"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."
"Thanks to this tool, we have a small SOC running in our company."
"Packet Solution: Allows analyst proactive hunting and alerting on daily sophisticated APTs."
"The detection of ransomware in the internal network has benefited my organization."
"I can have enterprise security, email security, next generation firewall security log, HIDS and NIDS logs, etc. all on the same dashboard. It makes it easy to pinpoint or correlate our server to this. I can find out if there is lateral movement. This is the biggest advantage of this solution."
"NetWitness can be highly beneficial for incident detection and response."
"It gives customers visibility about their most important servers and devices."
"The most valuable features are its ingestion of logs and raising of alerts based on those logs."
"Alerting Module: It provides real-time event processing language on all the logs/packets stream for advanced alerting, i.e., using SQL LIKE statements."
 

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 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 can add behavior analytics and AI or machine learning technology."
"The multi-tenant capabilities are lagging compared to IBM QRadar."
"The product's licensing models are complex to understand. This particular area needs improvement."
"RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets is far behind the competition."
"The product continues to crash. Even with tech support help, it does not resolve itself."
"RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets can improve the threat level aspect, it is lacking compared to other solutions. Whenever any hacking activity or any other threat factor occurred they used to provide the coverages very fast when comparing RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets. I heard the other three solutions, from a discussion with my team members who had experience in other solutions, they used to say that. Whenever any issues happened across the globe RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets are a little bit slow improving those detection mechanisms."
"The initial setup is complex. There are other solutions that are easier to implement."
"The tool's integration capability isn't so great."
"More customizability is required, which is something that they need to improve on."
 

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."
"RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets do not have a subscription model, it's a one-time purchase. There is only a perpetual license."
"This is a pricey solution; it's not cheap."
"We have a perpetual license, so the total cost of ownership is not very expensive. It's a good investment."
"We are on an annual license for the use of the solution."
"The product is expensive."
"There is a licensing fee and the customer can choose whether he wishes this to be subscription-based or perpetual."
"Compared to the competition, the is price is not that high."
