Featured Reviews

Shaik Shaheer - PeerSpot reviewer
A highly commendable and robust solution offering powerful features and comprehensive log data management
It allows us to efficiently manage and store our data. Its compression and archiving features not only reduce storage costs but also minimize the infrastructure resources needed for data backup. Since we have multiple security solutions in place, it allows us to streamline data handling. We can selectively send security-related events to the SIEM while directing other non-security events from various tools to Falcon LogScale. This flexibility ensures that we have access to all the data we need when required, and we can easily export this data from it as necessary, optimizing our data management and making it readily available for analysis or other purposes.
Mokhammad Rakhman - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly dashboard and machine learning capabilities improve threat hunting efficiency
LogRhythm SIEM has strong machine-learning capabilities with behavioral rules and analysis. The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient. Analytics and behavioral analysis help me save time with rule creation. Its scalability allows me to add components as needed. Overall, LogRhythm SIEM offers end-to-end visibility with a reasonable price.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The fast search and index-free data retention are very valuable."
"One of the key features is the fast search functionality, enabling us to get results within a few seconds."
"It offers the capability to view live log ingestion directly from the console which means you can seamlessly manage live log data ingestion alongside accessing and analyzing older data from the past."
"We have to be able to show the evidence, and LogRhythm does a great job of putting it forward and making it easy to create reports with nice looking dashboards, which show off what we are doing as a security program."
"Their customer support is friendly and willing to help."
"The ability to investigate a particular period of time where you can analyze logs is its most valuable feature."
"It's reliable and the performance is good."
"Technical support has always been helpful."
"The initial setup is pretty easy."
"It's positively affected our overall rate of efficiency."
"The most valuable feature is that we can alternate incident automations."
 

Cons

"The price could be lower."
"The integration could improve."
"There are some overlapping features found in multiple tools."
"Stability has probably been one area where Health Checks have not been great with the product. We have been told that they are going to improve Health Checks on product, though we do struggle with them on a daily basis."
"I would like to see our vulnerabilities counter. We will be using Tenable to fill that void right now."
"Only area I can think of to improve on is the proof reading and using the guides before releasing them. Out the the 20+ guides I used one had issues with wrong information in it."
"My biggest issue - I know that they say they're doing it - is that the API-building is extremely important. They keep saying it's coming, it's coming. It's not coming fast enough. I don't care if they need to double their team size to get it out there quicker, the world is already in the cloud and we can't monitor it. That's a big problem for us. My boss keeps coming to me about it. That's an issue."
"My biggest complaint is documentation. Everyone tells me, "We have documentation on the Community site." I have searched for different types of documentation on numerous occasions, and it might be there, but it's not easily findable."
"The integration is slightly difficult with other assets, like EDR technologies or firewalls."
"The user interface needs improvement. The more the user can slide around and know what's going on, the better it will be."
"NextGen SIEM's integration with other software is good but could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is a very cost-effective solution."
"It costs a great amount, but its pricing is competitive with some of the other vendors. For licensing and support, we pay about 20,000. There are no additional costs or anything like that."
"The setup and licensing for small and medium size businesses is straightforward, though when it comes to the enterprise it pays to keep in mind the possibility for complications given all the extras and add-ons that may be required."
"NextGen SIEM's pricing is moderate."
"I think the tool is reasonably priced. There is a need to pay per year towards the licensing costs of the tool."
"When it comes time to renew, they say, "This is what you are using. This is what we can do for you." So, they work with you on pricing."
"I would recommend talking to the rep. That's the biggest thing because they will know what questions to ask."
"On a scale of one to ten, I'd rate the pricing of this solution as a seven - not too expensive but not cheap either. Regarding licensing costs, it varies depending on factors like being a partner or an end user, but there are no additional costs aside from standard licensing fees for the basic SIEM solution."
