Find out in this report how the two DX NetOps solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
The platform has resulted in time saved and reduces mean time to response, making it a great platform.
Broadcom technical support is very good.
The customer support for Fortinet FortiSIEM is excellent.
Local tech support is available, however, for more critical or technical issues, we depend on the OEM directly, especially when it comes to on-prem solutions.
There is a knowledgeable, though small, team of support engineers around the world.
Fortinet FortiSIEM is highly scalable.
Fortinet FortiSIEM's scalability is excellent, and it is also easy to configure, maintain, and operate.
At any point in time, when network devices increase or there is a change in the infrastructure, we can add more workers and collectors to expand our infrastructure setup.
It stabilizes itself in an appropriate time, so its uptime is good.
Some stability issues occur, but Fortinet's technical support team provides assistance.
These issues may cause unusual errors and user interface issues.
Currently, they appear as pop-up messages, but I would prefer having alarm messages shown as a scrolling bar at the taskbar for easier visibility.
The event management should have more deduplication and alert correlation and check the bidirectional communication with ServiceNow.
Fortinet FortiSIEM should broaden its remediation part to include more features for incident management.
Recently, they revised it to a subscription-based, all-inclusive license.
The built-in APIs in Fortinet FortiSIEM are somewhat lacking and could be improved for better integration with external ITSM products.
The price of DX Spectrum is not competitive when compared to other solutions, such as SolarWinds.
Setting it up for oneself as an enterprise-licensed product can be quite expensive.
Windows agent licenses cost around 3,000 Rupees per device per year.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Fortinet FortiSIEM is wonderful, as it offers an excellent license compared to other vendors.
The interface has the needed configuration for visualization, and it's effective in providing a complete diagram of network links and connections across various stations globally.
DX Spectrum uses an SNMP Trap to accept all the details, especially for device monitoring of faulty devices, allowing me to use Spectrum effectively.
I find the real-time monitoring and correlation capabilities effective for security alerts.
It provides extensive logging and record-keeping for internal networks, cloud applications, and services as well as perimeter physical network security.
Reliability and scalability have helped me in my work, especially because the license for Fortinet FortiSIEM is excellent from a cost perspective, and we can add more collectors as we expand.
