Efficiently monitoring and detecting suspicious activities
One valuable feature of ConnectWise Fortify is the ability to add other teams and receive notifications when customers make changes or remove multi-factor authentication in Microsoft or SAP environments. For instance, once we were connecting different parts in China, and we had to reserve resources for the blue source of the login of task no v. ConnectWise Fortify successfully mitigated the issue and monitored any suspicious activity in the Microsoft environment. Despite the inconvenience, the Microsoft environment is still active and susceptible to cyber threats. We do a lot of research and utilize ConnectWise Fortify to restart and restore the system. It's essential to have a solution like ConnectWise Fortify to protect against cyber threats.

Offers a single dashboard with customizable features and a cost-effective pricing structure
Sumo Logic Security offers a single dashboard and customization, which are the most valuable features. Additionally, it has a cost-effective structure because it is based on data storage and the number of scans, rather than uploading data. This cost model impacts the customers positively by offering a more straightforward pricing structure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have found the solution has great functionality and it is easy to use."
"The integration capabilities of ConnectWise SIEM are off the shelf, making it easy to buy and use; you just unpack it and use it."
"One valuable feature of ConnectWise Fortify is the ability to add other teams and receive notifications when customers make changes or remove multi-factor authentication in Microsoft or SAP environments."
"Support has been excellent. Sumo Logic's support staff is really good, both their account management staff and direct support."
"We have used it many times to find a root cause of a live issue, then fix the problem in the applications."
"Sumo Logic Security is a good solution for searching the logs and identifying the issues."
"It helps a lot because we can troubleshoot issues pretty easily."
"We are able to diagnose problems before our customers."
"The tool has key features like operability. It will alert the admins whenever a device is onboarded."
"Technical support is always great."
"The solution is quite stable."
 

Cons

"ConnectWise Fortify could work on covering more areas, like phishing messages, which have become more complicated to detect."
"ConnectWise SIEM is primarily focused on notifications and is limited in that aspect, while Wazuh can automate the elimination process."
"The manage portion of the solution is complicated and should be simplified by having different versions to meet the needs of different size companies."
"In my opinion, this solution has a steep learning curve and requires practice if users to be able to use this tool very efficiently."
"I would like better UI-driven functionality to create alerts and reports. Now, we have to understand the syntax, so it is a little difficult for someone to pick it up without using the manuals. If there was more of a graphical user interface, it would be beneficial."
"The integration with multiple sources could be better."
"The correlation rules and log mapping are not as mature compared to other SIM tools like Splunk."
"Sumo Logic Security is expensive, and its pricing could be improved."
"The solution should improve its UI."
"The dashboard has room for improvement, because sometimes it is a difficult to create a specific dashboard or query. This would be a nice place to correct problems."
"From the network segmentation side, there is some discrepancy in log onboarding. The tool needs to improve direct API integrations, login integration, native login integration, etc."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"If we went to ELK Stack, which is open source, it would have been less costly, but it would have required more development from our side."
"Pricing has been cheaper than some of the competing tools, like Splunk."
"The pricing is good. It's not an issue for us."
"The pricing is a little high, but for the features that we receive from Sumo Logic, it suits the price. For some small organizations, the price might be a little high."
"The license pricing model is based on the events that are processed through the solution."
"I don't pay the bill. I've heard the AWS Marketplace pricing is high, but I like the value."
"The only limit to the scalability of the product for us is how much we are willing to pay."
"The AWS Marketplace pricing is borderline. Every annual renewal, we always contemplate if we are getting what we think we could out of it or could we do it cheaper with some other product."
