Development from open sources is very valuable but a huge infrastructure is required

The solution's command line should be simpler so that routine commands can be used. The search configuration is a bit different than other OEMs or SIEM solutions like ArcSight or QRadar that are easy to search because they operate similarly. The logic is there and the solution supplies a pretty good explanation. Basically, DNIF spelled out is the opposite of FIND. You have to find commands whenever you want to search something. For example, a highway gets you to your destination but there is an alternate way people don't yet know about. Gartner or Forrester haven't yet studied it. We were a bit nervous when we were trying to get familiar with the solution. We wondered if we could realize ROI because the commands and ways of pulling data were different to us. We raised a case with the support team and their professionals provided the needed support. The command line is user friendly once you understand it. If you need immediate use, then you might want to get assistance from someone who is well-versed in methods for using key patterns to find things. Lengthier files for threat hunting or analysis are needed. The correlation happens, but exporting a large number of files to abstract them is not possible. For example, I want to present raw data to management so I should be able to customize a date range in my query and download the files.

The open architecture is easy to extend and enhance

Pandora could deliver better analytics out of the box. You can work around these limitations with the help of other tools like Grafana. The shortcomings are mostly on the graphical side. The built-in report generators are a bit limited in some areas. They could improve their management console's ability to monitor large environments could be improved. For example, SNMP management is only partially integrated into the management console.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It was one of the first SIEM tools I saw that had that particular MITRE table."

"The solution is quite stable and offers good performance, it also works on a virtual machine and we haven't found any issues with it so far, it's been reliable."

"I like the MITRE table, a feature I saw for the first time in the same solution. There was one MITRE tactic table, which can be used to identify threats if you have all kinds of rules enabled or if you have rules for all the tactics in the MITRE table. There are 14 tables in MITRE, and those 14 tables consist of multiple columns, tactics, and techniques. It was one of the first SIEM tools I saw that had that particular MITRE table. On that basis, you can create new rules and identify existing ones. At any point, if an alert is triggered, it will try to match it to any of those MITRE tactics. I liked that creating a workbook on MITRE business was straightforward. I also like that you can search using SQL or DQL."

"If you're an enterprise company and want to scale your productivity for log monitoring purposes, I found DNIF a better option than Splunk which has more complex software."

"Great for scaling productivity for log monitoring purposes."

"The dashboard is helpful, and it creates visualizations to let staff review event data and identify patterns and anomalies."

"The benefit of DNIF was that the solution was able to detect any anomalies and identify and prevent any possible security threats or attacks."

"Has a great search capability."

More DNIF HYPERCLOUD pros

"Thanks to this software and to the work of the support team, we have everything under control."

"The monitoring system within this solution is very good. It is easy to use and navigate, and makes issue alarms easily viewable."

"Thanks to its flexibility, I have been able to adapt the tool to our servers and find out quickly how their console works."

"This tool has been of great help because we can manage faster solutions with the problems in our network and it helped us reduce our response time."

"Features I have found most valuable with Pandora are the personalized metrics and the simplicity of data."

"We are able to control our business with this all-in-one monitoring tool."

"In comparison with most monitoring software, this software is incredibly easy to use."

"This product has allowed us to identify and correct certain issues that were affecting our solution."

More Pandora FMS pros

Cons

"The solution should be able to connect to endpoints, such as desktops and laptops... If this solution had a smart connector to these logs- Windows, Linux, or any other logs - without affecting the performance of the connector, that would be wonderful."

"I think DNIF HYPERCLOUD can implement the ability to export more than 100,000. At the moment, we can't go beyond that. So many times, if you're checking for the firewall logs and working on something related to authentication or network-related traffic, while that log count is low, the account goes beyond that. You can't restrict the logs or the amount of data you can export. It's very important for my situation. It would be better if they could increase the capacity of exports. Although there are many more types of searching in DNIF HYPERCLOUD, people still struggle to query out what they want because not everyone is good at SQL or DQL. The easiest way to query out in DNIF is using the GUI-based interface. But in the GUI interface, you can use operator calls. It gets tricky when you want to search for a specific type of event. You don't know where it will be passed and whether it will be consistent. In the initial phase, it's tough for us to use DNIF. You cannot pass every event in a stable DNIF. When we used that particular tool, we used to get those logs, but sometimes many things are not getting passed. So, we used to export the sheet or export the data into Excel and weigh the required details. In the next release, I would like them to improve the export of the columns and make the application more user-friendly. I would also like a threat-hunting feature in the next release."

"DNIF HYPERCLOUD is not a stable product compared to other tools like IBM QRadar."

"I feel that DNIF needs to invest more in marketing, considering that it operates at a very competitive speed."

"The solution should be able to connect to endpoints, such as desktops and laptops."

"I used version 8 which was not at all stable. The services and processor keep going down, we had to manually keep them up increasing storage space because services are down, and logs not processed."

"The vendor is fairly new and it's not as big as some of the international competitors. It's not a mature product."

"Dependency on the DNIF support team was frustrating."

More DNIF HYPERCLOUD cons

"We would like the real-time monitoring of an interface to be improved within this solution."

"Pandora FMS is an overall great monitoring solution, but it does not have a community that is as large as Zabbix or Nagios."

"Their support is good, but it is just online communication. It would be great to be able to just call someone and talk to them instead of always writing. It works well for me because I am a decent communicator in email, but some people might find it difficult to describe in a written fashion and communicate with them that way. There is a learning curve to the interface, but once you get used to it, it is actually very powerful. They have a lot of options, but people struggle with the interface. They've improved it though, and it is getting better. They need to keep improving the learning curve to help buy-in. I'm the guy that manages it, so I'm comfortable with it. They can refine the upgrade agents to be easier. They can also do more refinement in end-user usability because not everyone is strong technically, and people who aren't strong technically might be averse to the product, even though it has come a long way. It has a complete GUI and everything."

"Pandora FMS is relatively new, and the interface with the older version crashes at times. We have several different operating systems, such as Linux and Windows, and Pandora does not run as well in these."

"We would like to see improvement in the mainframe integration that this solution is capable of."

"In the future, we may have double the number of devices, and we do not want to have any issues with performance in the data display."

"I find that this software is resource heavy, and demands a lot of processing capacity."

"A nice feature in the next release would be an automation module to run workflow actions."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is based on the log size."

"The solution requires a huge infrastructure and that is costly."

"Price-wise, the product is quite economical. I rate the solution's price as three or four on a scale of one to ten, where one is considered to be a very economically priced tool."

"Only one payment and it includes support, updates, new versions, and access to the complete library of plugins except for SAP and z/OS."

"The open-source version offers 100% functionality and the hardware requirements for a solution like this one are very modest."

"Pandora FMS is easy to implement and the pricing of licenses is competitive."

"You have to pay for the number of agents and models that you are monitoring. I would rate the cost at three with one being the most expensive and five being the cheapest."

"You get the license and it includes updates, new versions, and access to the complete library of modules."

"They are very competitive on the pricing side. That's one reason why my manager keeps using it."

"My rule of thumb would be that if you need more than thirty agents, and you lack an automation tool such as Chef or Puppet, you will save a lot of time and money going to the Enterprise edition."

"In terms of money, the Enterprise version is the cheapest that I have found after a market study."

If you have unique requirements, you can just make your own modules. You can even grab checks from other vendors. There are open-source checks for various things such as SMTP, etc. It is really flexible. It is reliable. It does the job, and it alerts. It is also surprisingly feature-rich. It is very mature for a not-so-known product."
