Advanced analytics have transformed our threat detection and streamlined incident investigations
I would appreciate seeing additional dashboards in Exabeam Fusion SIEM or perhaps more options or the ability to customize them further. While we can customize them currently, there may be additional options available. I value the outcomes navigator because it matches the log piece to the use cases, which is helpful. The correlation rules are excellent. I am interested in whether there are additional threat intelligence feeds available that we could use, whether we can integrate our own, or if we could ingest different ones.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution also watches over Microsoft 365 and keeps a copy of logs."
"I appreciate that there are people behind the scenes sorting out valuable alerts from those that are not, so I only get alerts when they are real."
"On my end, the most valuable feature of this solution is that I can install it and forget about it. After that, their SOC team takes over and they only call me when there's a problem."
"Their SOC is phenomenal in not monitoring and responding and taking action."
"On a scale from one to ten, I would rate the overall solution as a ten."
"The solution is all encompassing and can incorporate email monitoring."
"Exabeam is very easy to use, with a straightforward platform and workflow, unlike other tools that require more expertise."
"I have customers that like the EUBA functionality of it; the solution has the ability to build a session, basically, pulling a lot of information together, for example, everything a user does in a specific timeframe, which is quite helpful."
"Valuable features are its timeline based analysis and that it's user friendly."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
"We evaluated LogRhythm and Splunk as possible options but in the end, we went with Exabeam - it was the right choice for us taking into account the needs of our customers and projected future needs."
"It's a very user-friendly product and it's a very comprehensive technology."
"I have seen a return on investment with Exabeam Fusion SIEM, and it is worth the money."
"The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior."
 

Cons

"The feature we keep asking for is a vulnerability scan."
"Some texts seem to report items as normal too quickly."
"The interface could be more intuitive."
"The interface could be more intuitive. More transparency is needed in the interface as a lot of details are hidden behind the scenes, making them difficult or impossible to access."
"The solution does not tie into other EDR products like CyberArk or CrowdStrike but that might be more useful."
"While I am very satisfied with the service, supporting additional platforms, particularly Linux support, would be a beneficial improvement."
"The initial setup of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is complex because it needs to integrate with the SIEM solution, but after this is complete it is straightforward."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
"Exabeam lacks customizable dashboards, which might be a limitation if visualization is a key requirement."
"Exabeam should be a bit faster, especially in loading and vulnerability scanning."
"The only problem is that the UI is not very impressive."
"Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance."
"The product is good but the organization is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
"Exabeam is not a cheap solution."
