Find out what your peers are saying about Splunk, Datadog, Wazuh and others in Log Management."Its flexibility is most valuable. We can have a number of scenarios, and we can get logs from anything. If we know how to use Logstash, we can tweak it in many ways. This makes the logging search on Elastic very easy."
"The indexes allow you to get your results quickly. The filtering and log passing is the advantage of Logstash."
"I like that it's a SIEM platform. I like that I can sell Elastic Security quickly. Elastic Security has a large community that can support users."
"ELK documentation is very good, so never needed to contact technical support."
"Elastic has a lot of beats, such as Winlogbeat and Filebeat. Beats are the agents that have to be installed on the terminals to send the data. When we install beats or Elastic agents on every terminal, they don't overload the terminals. In other SIEM solutions such as Splunk or QRadar, when beats or agents are installed on endpoints, they are very heavy for the terminals. They consume a lot of power of the terminals, whereas Elastic agents hardly consume any power and don't overload the terminals."
"It's not very complicated to install Elastic."
"It's very stable and reliable."
"I use the stack every morning to check the errors and it's just so clear. I don't see any disadvantage to using Logstash."
"The customers who have the use case of monitoring the file server and want to know the user's activity. It's the Power Admin's requirement."
"Technical support could respond faster."
"This solution cannot do predictive maintenance, so we have to build our own modules for doing it."
"The process of designing dashboards is a little cumbersome in Kibana. Unless you are an expert, you will not be able to use it. The process should be pretty straightforward. The authentication feature is what we are looking for. We would love to have a central authentication system in the open-source edition without the need for a license or an enterprise license. If they can give at least a simple authentication system within a company. In a large organization, authentication is very essential for security because logs can contain a lot of confidential data. Therefore, an authentication feature for who accesses it should be there."
"The Integration module could be improved. It is a pain to build integration with any product. We have to do parking and so on. It's not like other commercial solutions that use profile integration. I would also see more detection features on the SIEM side."
"The interface could be more user friendly because it is sometimes hard to deal with."
"If the documentation were improved and made more clear for beginners, or even professionals, then we would be more attracted to this solution."
"With Elastic Security, the challenge arises from the fact that there is a learning curve in relation to queries and understanding the query language provided to extract usable data."
"The tool should improve its scalability."
"The setup takes half an hour. It will be a little complex."
