The SIEM provides a user-friendly UI experience
When events come into the system, the dashboard categorizes them by the highest risk score, not when they appear on the system. When you've got multiple ongoing incidents you can only see the highest risk score at the top of the list rather than the most recent detection. Exabeam's reporting dashboard could have included a filtering option to filter by the most recent detection.

Though the solution offers good technical support, it needs to be made more user-friendly
I rate the initial setup a seven and a half out of ten. So, it's closer to seven. The tool is deployed in our organization on-premises with some test servers. In only two tests in a test environment, the deployment can be carried out. The deployment time only depends on the size of your infrastructure. If I limit the company's size, it will not take too much time. So, it can be done in seven to eight hours. Regarding the deployment process, we have managed some test servers, after which we need to install some agents. If you include more servers, you need to install more agents. If you want to use agent-based, I would say that it is totally up to the stakeholder. You will get some additional benefits if you can choose the agent since you will be more assured that less positive false positive results you will get from the tool. For deployment, one test server, a few deployment servers, and some policy configurations are done by the OEM with some local support. We used some Windows servers and Linux servers, and we installed some agents in different types of operating systems. So different versions of Linux and different versions of Windows. We also integrate some network devices like firewalls to integrate firewalls and logs. So, the amount of logs and firewalls is too much. I have to engage too many employees for deployment. So there are those for Linux servers, others for Windows servers, and the rest for network devices. One for SIEM policy creation and one for SIEM management administration is also required.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I have customers that like the EUBA functionality of it. The solution has the ability to build a session, basically. It pulls a lot of information together, for example, everything a user does in a specific timeframe. It's quite helpful."
"Exabeam includes machine learning features and out-of-the-box rules that we rely on."
"The ThreatHunter in Advanced Analytics is the most valuable. It helps analyze compromised assets and provides analysis for any entity within my client's environment."
"The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior."
"The solution's initial setup process is easy."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam is the timeline creation based on log sources, which helps in security investigations."

"The configuration part is very easy...The technical support was sincere in their responses...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"We had a large volume right from the beginning and they weren't quite prepared for that. That's something that they should think about when it comes to customers that have a large volume to start off with."
"One area that needs improvement is interacting with Exabeam's API. There was a headache regarding the API; the documentation wasn't clear, and the syntax wasn't very precise."
"Exabeam should be a bit faster, especially in loading and vulnerability scanning."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"The initial setup of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is complex because it needs to integrate with the SIEM solution, but after this is complete it is straightforward."
"They should provide detailed information about detecting phishing emails."
"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 customer service and support are not satisfactory."
"In general, the solution currently isn't user-friendly."
"RSA enVision log manager is out of date and is not in use anymore."
"Licensing could be improved to be more oriented towards Managed Service Providers (MSPs)."
"The integration could be easier, it should support more products."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
"Exabeam is not a cheap solution."
"There is an annual license required to use Exabeam Fusion SIEM. The price of the solution should be reduced."

"The solution is expensive."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high price, I rate the pricing a six."
"We no longer pay a licensing fee because it is out of date and don't pay for support."
