A great addition to our security monitoring system
We haven't to this point had to scale very large, we want to continue to evolve, but it's a slow process for us. From what I've used so far, and my reading on it, I don't think we're going to have any problems scaling to really whatever size we need.

Efficient log management enhances activity monitoring despite VPN user issue
Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users. When a VPN user logs in, it doesn't really capture the time before this. If you're testing with existing or new device integration, then the product will be good in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The security aspects in general have been very useful to use."
"There's a whole spectrum of features on the solution that users can take advantage of, and it's a very robust product."
"We use the solution because it is granular."
"What I found most useful in ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is its integration with other ManageEngine applications; it seamlessly integrates throughout the ManageEngine suite, and that's beneficial, and I also like that the solution has chain management capabilities, it has a modular approach, and it's easy to reach the support team."
"The initial setup is straightforward"
"The dashboard for administrators or assigned engineers can identify vulnerabilities, activities, infected systems, large files, or DDoS attacks."
"The user interface is very good."
"The initial setup was very simple and straightforward, according to our security team."
"It is stable."
"It's one of the easiest products. It's very simple to use."
 

Cons

"At some level, the documentation, the information as far as the components, it's sometimes a little difficult to find the information necessary to implement aspects."
"The dashboard is not user-friendly. The solution, in general, isn't great from a user's perspective."
"Support could improve to make the solution better."
"What I'd like to see as an improvement to ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is for it to be more AI-driven. Having more automation would also make the solution better."
"There's a lot to improve in terms of connectivity. Currently, we're utilizing it across various infrastructures and environments, including others' cloud. However, connecting it to our infrastructure and integrating it with some of our SMAX solutions poses difficulties."
"The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities, the authentication, when a person logs onto a network device."
"Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users."
"The first tier of customer service and support is not great, and additional upgrades could be included."
"The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability."
"It may not be as easy to use as Splunk."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a yearly subscription for the solution."
"ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is expensive. Its licensing costs are annual."
