Zuhair Hasan

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.

It is a stable solution, but they should make the user interface easier to understand

The solution's initial setup takes work. We have to organize multiple paths and many features. The deployment process takes less than a week. But it takes a month to complete if we want to make the solution smarter by integrating it with various devices. I rate the process as a six out of ten.

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."

"The correlation rules and the user platform are most valuable."

"NetWitness can be highly beneficial for incident detection and response."

"The most valuable feature is the correlation. It can report in real-time and monitor the management."

"The most valuable features are the threat prediction and network forensics."

"It gives the capability for the incident response team to correlate logs to identify any kind of problem like malware and incidents in a general sense, both for logs and packets."

"The solution is really scalable for the high-end power, enterprise customer."

"In my opinion, the solution's most valuable feature is its capacity to monitor network traffic, logs from devices within the network, and network captures. This capability extends beyond logs to include full network capturing."

"The product has a user-friendly interface and a valuable feature for threat intelligence integration."

"What we are mainly using are the RSA concentrator, RSA Decoder, Archiver, Broker, and Log Decoder."

More NetWitness Platform pros

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."

"Lots of competing products have vulnerability protection built into their products, and this solution would be improved by including that support."

"Sometimes, it gives me static when integrating Windows-based systems. It should produce a precise log of sorts as to where the problem is. For example, a few days ago because of the McAfee application firewall, I couldn't get access to the particular Windows machine. So, my team and I had to figure out by ourselves that there was a virus responsible for the obstacle. This solution should trigger a meaningful log or message indicating the reason the user or implementer can't get into the machine."

"The initial setup is complex. There are other solutions that are easier to implement."

"I believe that integrating the solution with other products such as Oracle would be beneficial."

"The multi-tenant capabilities are lagging compared to IBM QRadar."

"We have encountered issues with unresolved crashes."

"The initial setup is very complex and should be simplified."

"The user interface is a little bit difficult for new users and it needs to be improved."

More NetWitness Platform cons

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."

"The new pricing and licensing mechanisms are fair. I would advise always to get the full solution (i.e., not only Logs)."

"This is a pricey solution; it's not cheap."

"There is a licensing fee and the customer can choose whether he wishes this to be subscription-based or perpetual."

"The product price was reasonable for my region and the market."

"The tool is very expensive, so I rate the pricing a ten out of ten. The solution has an annual subscription."

"It provides tools to assist in selecting the appropriate license and usage scenarios."

"In comparison to other SIEM solutions such as Splunk, NetWitness is less costly."

"We have a perpetual license, so the total cost of ownership is not very expensive. It's a good investment."
