Room For Improvement

Cynet users seek improved integration, robust reporting, enhanced automation, streamlined deployment, and better support and customization features.
LogRhythm SIEM needs better integration, UI improvements, enhanced reports, and Linux-based support for efficiency and tool integration.
There should be more options than deploying solely through group policy, as the assumption that GPO is working isn’t always the case.
Cynet offers enough visibility into our infrastructure, showing all endpoints and other agentless devices.
Having a DLP feature would also add value.
I have noticed some problems with parsing errors, event mismatches, and data mismatching, so ensuring accurate parsing and continuous improvement according to device updates are my basic expectations as a detection engineer.
A more user-friendly user interface with drag-and-drop features, similar to key competitors like Splunk, would be beneficial.
 

Setup Cost

Cynet provides flexible, competitively-priced security solutions with extensive features, appealing to enterprises seeking cost-effective comprehensive coverage.
LogRhythm SIEM offers competitive pricing with comprehensive features, though scalability and additional features may increase costs.
The price of Cynet is reasonable considering its features and support.
I think the pricing of Cynet is fair and one of the better options in the market.
The license cost is around $10 per MPS.
I find LogRhythm SIEM affordable, as it is a bit less costly than QRadar.
 

Valuable Features

Cynet offers intuitive interface, automated threat blocking, ransomware protection, and comprehensive monitoring with stability and competitive pricing.
LogRhythm SIEM excels in threat detection, user-friendly interface, and integration, offering centralized logs and customizable alerts.
The SOAR function, deception, and forensics are very useful.
The vendor manages our infrastructure's cybersecurity through a Security Operations Center (SOC).
The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point.
We have enough budget for cloud deployment, but we choose to keep it on-prem to ensure data privacy; cyberattacks are a concern, but data privacy is the foremost priority due to sensitive government information.
The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient.
