Has improved threat detection with deep log analysis and streamlined investigation workflows

The most useful features I find in Elastic Security are the forensic ones that allow us to carry deeper analysis into the logs for in-depth investigations, and the dashboards, with the reporting dashboard being quite user-friendly. Elastic Security is quite good at identifying threats, as it is part of the deep investigation tool that I mentioned before. Unless we need to look further into a certain log, we can carry out a deeper analysis and forensics on those particular logs. I can assess the impact of Elastic Security's real-time data analysis on our threat response efficiency as working pretty good. We are looking for real-time analysis because we have a continuous inflow of logs from different sources: from our cloud, from Active Directory, from our network. So it works pretty well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Just the ability to do a lot more than just up-down is nice, which a lot of people take for granted."

"Its flexibility is most valuable; we can have a number of scenarios, and we can get logs from anything, and if we know how to use Logstash, we can tweak it in many ways, which makes the logging search on Elastic very easy."

"ELK is open-source, and it will give you the framework you need to build everything from scratch."

"ELK documentation is very good, so never needed to contact technical support."

"The tool's functionality is good for overall security and incident response times."

"All of the features on the solution are useful due to the fact that I have the full Stack, therefore I can collect and then visualize."

"The feature that we have found the most valuable is scalability."

"The solution is free."

More Elastic Security pros

"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform provides a more straightforward implementation that is better than Splunk and offers an AI-based platform with machine learning and deep learning capabilities."

"The most valuable features are behaviour analytics, threat intelligence, endpoint detection, and response features."

"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform notifies only genuine alerts. It offers plenty of options that are suitable for MSPs."

"It is effective because it has threat intelligence from across the world and constantly checks and updates for new threats."

"The main thing is the value proposition; it is one of the most sophisticated yet affordable solutions that I've come across, and it is also one of the easiest-to-manage yet comprehensive solutions for a SOC analyst."

"It offers a holistic approach with multiple solutions blended into one platform."

"I like that it's an AI-based platform. The most valuable feature is that it's a comprehensive solution. Most tools in the marketplace are comprised of miscellaneous items. They fail to provide real-time remediation features. However, with Seceon Open Threat Management Platform, anything you can think of in cybersecurity, like auto-remediation, real-time response, and even on-premise components, is available in a single platform. So, it's perfect for finance and healthcare who don't want to share their data with a third party like the cloud. You can have this on-premise as well. So, the expenditure will be lower as less human intervention is required."

"We only recently started using Seceon, so we aren't taking advantage of all its features yet. We have enabled some proactive alerts about utilization and bottlenecks from high traffic."

Cons

"Their visuals and graphs need to be better."

"Sometimes, the solution isn't the easiest to use."

"The price of this product could be improved, especially the additional costs. I would also like to see better-quality graphics."

"The signature security needs improvement."

"There are connectors to gather logs for Windows PCs and Linux PCs, but if we have to get the logs from Syslog then we have to do it manually, and this should be automated."

"I would say that right now the Linux feature set is a little limited."

"The solution's basic setup takes time, and a lot of effort is required from the beginning to make it actually work."

"The solution does not have a UI and this is one of the reasons we are looking for another solution."

More Elastic Security cons

"It needs more compatibility for co-managed solutions."

"The product could be improved by including sandboxing capabilities in the next release."

"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform sells some add-ons as part of the whole suite but not individually. If they sold them individually, they could potentially attract more business."

"The management console could use some enhancements."

"For small to medium-sized customers, Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is good. However, for large enterprises, it is not as effective."

"The dashboard has always been an issue."

"The product should improve the triggering rate."

"Certain features, such as DLP, need to be improved as they are superficial and not in-depth."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are using the free, open-source version of this solution."

"Its price is fine. Its licensing works on a yearly basis. We have to renew the license every year. I also have a good experience with Darktrace. When we buy Darktrace, we get training free of cost, which is not there in Elastic. We have to pay extra for training. There is certainly room for improvement."

"The pricing is in the middle. I think it is not an expensive experience if we compare it with big names, for example, QRadar, and also Oxide. I think Elastic Security is quite cheap. I would rate the pricing of this solution a five out of ten."

"Elastic Stack is an open-source tool. You don't have to pay anything for the components."

"Compared to other products such as Dynatrace, this is one of the cheaper options."

"The price is reasonable. It probably costs the same as ArcSight and LogRhythm SIEM. FortiSIEM might cost less than Elastic Security. There are no hidden or additional costs."

"The product offers an amazing pricing structure. Price-wise, the product is very competitive."

"Compared to other tools, Elastic Security is a cheaper solution."

More Elastic Security pricing and cost advice

"The solution is cheap and very competitive. It offers good tuning in terms of the pricing. Other solutions like Palo Alto and IBM are more expensive."

"It has a per-asset model instead of an ingestion-based model, which gives predictable pricing. In terms of price, it is in the middle to lower range of SIEMs that it competes against. It is the most affordable solution that we have implemented so far. It was much more affordable than anything else I've implemented."

"We used the solution's trial version for two months and later purchased it."

"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is cost-effective because it's a comprehensive platform that offers high availability."

"The pricing is very competitive. It's not expensive."

"I find Seceon OTM's pricing to be reasonable, not too high or low, just okay for the market standards. I can't disclose specific figures, we pay on a quarterly basis under a service model. I would rate it eight out of ten. As a customer, I always hope for better pricing options."

"The price is quite reasonable."
