Advanced threat hunting has improved visibility and has simplified custom query automation
CrowdStrike is ahead of the game. If I may say anything about Falcon LogScale to improve the services, I would talk about the way you develop parsers. The documentation should be more straightforward. It is not easy to quickly find the documentation, especially if you are using CrowdStrike. Most customers use Falcon LogScale because of CrowdStrike. The documentation of Falcon LogScale is not on the CrowdStrike portal just like the rest of Falcon documentation. I usually find that the main Falcon LogScale documentation is found on the Falcon LogScale website itself. I think there should be a link or direct documentation within the CrowdStrike pages. It is not necessarily a fault. If you find where the documentation resides, you can trace it to what they are doing. However, for the ease of use for Falcon administrators, the same documentation on the Falcon LogScale portal should be on the CrowdStrike dashboard.

Efficient log management enhances activity monitoring despite VPN user issue
Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users. When a VPN user logs in, it doesn't really capture the time before this. If you're testing with existing or new device integration, then the product will be good in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest advantages of Falcon LogScale are the speed at which the queries return to you and the ease of use."
"The workflows which are inbuilt, having inbuilt templates to utilize and automate the use cases, is the most useful part."
"I have only heard the best about CrowdStrike's support."
"Falcon LogScale has been rock solid in terms of stability."
"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."
"Falcon LogScale's insights give you a lot of information that an expert already thought would be valuable for you."
"Falcon LogScale seems to be a better option with better visibility when it comes to the dashboard and the kill chain process, including the attack surface."
"The fast search and index-free data retention are very valuable."
"What I found most useful in ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is its integration with other ManageEngine applications; it seamlessly integrates throughout the ManageEngine suite, and that's beneficial, and I also like that the solution has chain management capabilities, it has a modular approach, and it's easy to reach the support team."
"It is stable."
"We use the solution because it is granular."
"The dashboard for administrators or assigned engineers can identify vulnerabilities, activities, infected systems, large files, or DDoS attacks."
"Our primary use case for this solution is detecting issues to provide customers with information."
"The initial setup was very simple and straightforward, according to our security team."
"The tool's reports show activities."
"The log management has helped to improve my organization."
 

Cons

"There are significant improvements needed. When running Falcon LogScale for extended periods, it sometimes cannot send data to CrowdStrike's XDR system."
"One more point about areas for improvement is the visualization depth. Splunk, which I used, has very good visualization compared to Falcon LogScale."
"CrowdStrike support is not good."
"The main area for improvement in Falcon LogScale is the learning curve for the query language."
"There are some overlapping features found in multiple tools."
"The price could be lower."
"The price is, without question, very costly for any organization that has more than 1,000 or 2,000 users."
"The integration could improve."
"The first tier of customer service and support is not great, and additional upgrades could be included."
"The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability."
"The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities, the authentication, when a person logs onto a network device."
"There's a lot to improve in terms of connectivity. Currently, we're utilizing it across various infrastructures and environments, including others' cloud. However, connecting it to our infrastructure and integrating it with some of our SMAX solutions poses difficulties."
"Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users."
"There isn't good security integration when it comes to cybersecurity. The correlation of logs isn't so simple."
"The product does not have certain advantages, especially the correlation tools. It was not working as per our expectations."
"The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier."
