AKASH MAJUMDER - PeerSpot reviewer
Incident response times have significantly reduced with efficient device integration and log parsing capabilities
Cortex XSIAM needs improvements in terms of data onboarding, parsers, and third-party integration supports. Additionally, a future update request is to enable tagging of endpoints in groups, similar to a feature available in Cortex XDR. The AI analytics need fine-tuning because some use cases are not working from my side.
TamimKhan - PeerSpot reviewer

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its ability to deliver a substantial amount of security intelligence greatly enhances and optimizes our security operations program."
"It does a better job of identifying anomalies that are more likely to be incidents of compromise without as many false positives or false negatives."
"The most valuable feature is the integration capability."
"One of the valued aspects of the product is its use of artificial intelligence to detect security vulnerabilities."
"It operates on a single, extensive database which enables it to excel in detecting threats and anomalies across the network and endpoints, delivering a highly effective and comprehensive security solution."
"It is an effective solution in terms of performance and functionalities."
"Since implementing Cortex XSIAM, incident response times have been significantly reduced by approximately twenty percent."
"I would give Cortex XSIAM a rating of ten out of ten."
"We only recently started using Seceon, so we aren't taking advantage of all its features yet. We have enabled some proactive alerts about utilization and bottlenecks from high traffic."
"The solution is stable."
"The algorithm used in Seceon OTM is clear and logical, categorizing events as needed. This helps us identify and respond to threats effectively."
"The main thing is the value proposition. It is one of the most sophisticated yet affordable solutions that I've come across. It is also one of the easiest-to-manage yet comprehensive solutions for a SOC analyst. Its customizations are really good, and it has a lot of integrations. It is multi-tenant and very fast to onboard. Its stability is 100%. We've never had an outage with it. It doesn't require extensive hardware resources. Its level of support is also very good. They have a very responsive technical team."
"It is effective because it has threat intelligence from across the world and constantly checks and updates for new threats."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its artificial intelligence."
"The pricing of Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is very reasonable."
"The solution is very cost-effective compared to Splunk and LogRhythm."
 

Cons

"Cortex XSIAM needs improvements in terms of data onboarding, parsers, and third-party integration supports."
"The standard integrations are very limited, and the integrations available are not listed in the marketplace."
"The solution’s pricing and technical support could be improved."
"The first impression is that XSIAM would be more expensive than others we tried."
"I am not sure if any improvements are needed right now."
"Cortex XSIAM is pretty expensive, and the licensing process is not very comfortable compared to CrowdStrike."
"I would rate the overall stability a six or seven, as we have only used it for a few months and need a year of experience to provide a full assessment."
"The platform isn't very developer-friendly and it should provide more flexibility and ease."
"For future releases, integrating incident response tools and improving communication on incident reporting could be beneficial."
"For small to medium-sized customers, Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is good. However, for large enterprises, it is not as effective."
"The dashboard has always been an issue."
"It would be ideal with the processing was more manageable. Not many customers are willing to have a dedicated server with two CPUs and one TB of memory. The cost of this is huge for a smaller organization."
"The product should improve the triggering rate."
"Certain features, such as DLP, need to be improved as they are superficial and not in-depth."
"The product could be improved by including sandboxing capabilities in the next release."
"The SOP they provided wasn't great. They offered training over Sherp Virtualization, and the Seceon leadership visited our location to explain everything in detail, but the documentation and training could be better. It isn't as effective as it could be. There's some room for improvement there."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive compared to its competitors."
"Since Palo Alto is trying to get as many new customers as possible, they're offering very competitive pricing."
"The solution comes at a significant cost."
"In terms of pricing, we found Cortex XSIAM to offer a very reasonable and competitive rate."
"The product cost could be considered value for money compared to other solutions in the market, though it is quite high."
"We used the solution's trial version for two months and later purchased it."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is cost-effective because it's a comprehensive platform that offers high availability."
"The pricing is very competitive. It's not expensive."
"The solution is cheap and very competitive. It offers good tuning in terms of the pricing. Other solutions like Palo Alto and IBM are more expensive."
"It has a per-asset model instead of an ingestion-based model, which gives predictable pricing. In terms of price, it is in the middle to lower range of SIEMs that it competes against. It is the most affordable solution that we have implemented so far. It was much more affordable than anything else I've implemented."
"I find Seceon OTM's pricing to be reasonable, not too high or low, just okay for the market standards. I can't disclose specific figures, we pay on a quarterly basis under a service model. I would rate it eight out of ten. As a customer, I always hope for better pricing options."
"The price is quite reasonable."
