Advanced analytics have transformed our threat detection and streamlined incident investigations
I would appreciate seeing additional dashboards in Exabeam Fusion SIEM or perhaps more options or the ability to customize them further. While we can customize them currently, there may be additional options available. I value the outcomes navigator because it matches the log piece to the use cases, which is helpful. The correlation rules are excellent. I am interested in whether there are additional threat intelligence feeds available that we could use, whether we can integrate our own, or if we could ingest different ones.

Aggregates logs in one place and helps to review data points
We tried Graylog Security, starting with their inexpensive open-source version. We tested it out and continued using it for a while. As for the main differences between Graylog Security and other vendors, some users might prefer cloud-based platforms over on-premises solutions. It isn't inherently cloud-native, but that might not matter much for some.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user interface and the timelines they use are the most valuable features, and the price model is very simple so that one can understand it easily and there are no surprises within it."
"Exabeam has improved our organization by speeding up the investigation process."
"Exabeam is very easy to use, with a straightforward platform and workflow, unlike other tools that require more expertise."
"Exabeam's UEBA displays the type of description that it could show in a console regarding one particular user, the rating that it shows, and how vulnerable the user is, which is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is the easy-to-use user interface."
"The solution's automation capabilities are great."

Cons

"The customer service and support are not satisfactory."
"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
"The product is good but the organization is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate."
"Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance."
"We had a large volume right from the beginning and they weren't quite prepared for that."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"We use the on-prem Exabeam product and face limitations using the web UI and administration of custom models and rules."
"We still have questions surrounding hardware deployment."
"Graylog Security needs to incorporate security scorecards."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Exabeam is not a cheap solution."

"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
"I rate the tool's pricing a one out of ten."
