Centralized log onboarding has transformed root-cause analysis and streamlined alert-driven triage
I do not use automations within CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM at this point, but that is something that we want to do in the future. Maybe I did not experiment or did not investigate, but if we can get alerts based upon the CPU utilizations and the metrics over there, probably that would make this one tool used for everything. Actually, the circumstances that prompted my company to explore new SIEM solutions maybe include a point where the storage space or the license that we have, probably compared to other SIEM products, they have more, or the pricing and sales that go into the picture there. Again, that is above my pay grade to comment on, but it probably could be better if we can provide more storage of the data for the license that has been provided for organizations.

Aggregates logs in one place and helps to review data points
We tried Graylog Security, starting with their inexpensive open-source version. We tested it out and continued using it for a while. As for the main differences between Graylog Security and other vendors, some users might prefer cloud-based platforms over on-premises solutions. It isn't inherently cloud-native, but that might not matter much for some.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Fleet Manager Management, from which I can manage and deploy configurations to LogScale Collectors remotely without needing access to the machines where I collect logs is quite useful."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM played a significant role in my investigations by helping me move from searching across separate tools to investigating activity in a more unified interface."
"By having end-to-end visibility and remediation capabilities, both detection and response times have been significantly reduced since we implemented CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM."
"The dialogue primarily focused on introductory information about my role and experience."
"The feature of CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM that I like the most is the advanced search, which works smoothly without hanging, allows manipulation of a huge amount of data, and returns results within seconds."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is a very vast tool, and while we discussed it, it can be used for many purposes, but we are using it only for the log onboarding at this point."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM has significantly changed the speed at which our team searches, investigates, and responds to security events because it provides a comprehensive overview of network activities."
"The speed with which my team searches, investigates, and responds to security events has saved us more than 70% of the time by having the sources integrated in one place, and thanks to Falcon MCP, we can use AI to save time."
"The tool aggregates logs. We can see the logs in one place."
"We use the solution to collect logs."
 

Cons

"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM can be improved by being more user-friendly."
"I think CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM could improve with full integration with other tools."
"CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM could improve in the whole data ingestion and processing pipeline, as well as the storage capacity, to extend it beyond one year."
"I think CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM could be improved in the way lookup tables work, particularly concerning the limitations of the number of rows, and enhancements in workflow creation to make it more intuitive and easier to manage searches from within workflows."
"Regarding potential for optimization, I imagine more could be done with the platform itself through the consolidation of the different modules, so that you do not have to call up the same menu everywhere, such as Detections, but that this is also consolidated into the Next-Gen SIEM module."
"CrowdStrike support for this solution has been generally useful for technical questions and deployment guidance. However, more proactive guidance for complex migrations would be helpful."
"The number one thing that would be an improvement for me is making dashboard creation easier."
"Maybe I did not experiment or did not investigate, but if we can get alerts based upon the CPU utilizations and the metrics over there, probably that would make this one tool used for everything."
"Graylog Security needs to incorporate security scorecards."
