Centralized monitoring has improved real-time issue tracking and reduced root cause analysis time
One of the best features that Coralogix offers is that it is integration friendly. I can seamlessly work with different cloud providers including AWS, Azure, and GCP. I can monitor Kubernetes or Docker platforms as well, and I can integrate with the DevOps chain including Jenkins and all infrastructure code, Terraform, or Ansible. Coralogix has positively impacted my organization by providing a centralized console to monitor the dashboard, giving me rich flexibility to see different sorts of data that is spread across the logs, metrics, or traces, which are the typical pillars of the observability tool. I have the interface where I can use the drag-and-drop feature, and I can create different types of charts. Mainly, I have the line charts and time series ones that I generally use in many use cases, gauges, tables, pie charts, or markdown widgets. These are the ones generically available, and I can switch between the visualization types. I am getting the underlying query in that and can import and export dashboards built upon the JSON format. I can have my own APIs integrated with my dashboards as well, such as with Terraform, which is useful for scaling across my environments. Regarding root cause analysis, mainly what I can do is correlate across all of the layers because the main logs that I work on are storage-related, including CIFS, NFS, SAN traffic, and the metrics including storage, throughput, or VM resource usage. Being able to view logs, metrics, or traces available, I get all of these in one place, and I can do root cause analysis much quicker.

Interpreting data effectively despite challenges in integration and support
If someone lacks the budget for a new SIEM tool with advanced capabilities, I would recommend ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager (ESM). However, if they have the budget, I would suggest looking into other options. Overall, I would give ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) a rating of seven 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 solution is easy to use and to start with."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."
"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of Coralogix is that it is a very good vendor for metrics."
"The overall stability and reliability of Coralogix are excellent, and I rarely encounter issues."
"It gives better overall visibility. Before, we didn't have a unified system for managing security alerts. ArcSight introduced various alerts, giving us a better visibility of potential problems."
"The most valuable feature of ArcSight ESM is its ease of use."
"It makes maintenance very easy."
"What I found most valuable in ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) is its good integration with third-party products. The solution also has good core capabilities."
"The most useful features are directories, price, and live reporting."
"Usability is the most valuable feature. The accessibility is quite good."
"This process has helped to improve our organization because we have centralized the intra-group security equipment logs."
"I would rate the ease of use for new users an eight out of ten, with ten being easy to use. It is a good tool."
 

Cons

"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."
"In terms of documentation, I think there can be more user-friendly documentation that stresses more on day-to-day issues."
"The documentation of the tool could be improved"
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"The customizable dashboards haven't really helped with my company's efficiency at all, and I think there's room for improvement."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"ArcSight is incredibly complex when configuring and deploying, and if your organization doesn't know what they want and what they need, ArcSight will be a challenge for them."
"ArcSight ESM could improve the alerts for the storage capacities or actions."
"Deployment typology could be improved. Difficult to scale across all the different lines of businesses."
"The analytics feature is not reliable and needs improvement for more detailed analysis.​"
"The stability of ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) is not very robust."
"The correlation engine effectively connects different events, significantly improving our detection reach. However, limitations exist with non-default alerts, where additional costs arise for integration."
"The user interface of ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager could improve. It is not very good. Additionally, they could integrate the web interface better."
"We would like the ability to easily identify either unused resources or those that are being used sub-optimally."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"Price-wise, ArcSight ESM was a bit high compared to competitors, which factored into our decision to switch to Splunk. It couldn't cover all our business needs for what we wanted to implement."
"Customers without a ton of resources to dedicate to deployment may be better served by a managed ArcSight service."
"The pricing is great compared to others."
"ArcSight is pretty expensive compared with its competitors. I believe that is fine as it provides value."
"Thanks to Micro Focus's licensing model, as an MSSP, we are able to see a complete return on our investment almost immediately."
"HPE ArcSight pricing might be more expensive than other SIEM solutions, but in my opinion it has powerful features and great flexibility in developing complex use cases."
"It's a good price, it's one of the cheaper solutions."
"The licensing cost is affordable if you get an enterprise license. The licensing is based on EPS, so you can probably provide a package of license for multiple ESMs with their correlational end fees. It is cost-effective."
