Room For Improvement

LogRhythm SIEM needs improved integration, customization, performance, usability, better support, and enhanced documentation for optimal user experience.
Trellix Helix Connect struggles with integration, cost, outdated UI, session timeouts, and needs improvements in detection and cloud features.
I have noticed some problems with parsing errors, event mismatches, and data mismatching, so ensuring accurate parsing and continuous improvement according to device updates are my basic expectations as a detection engineer.
Cyber Security Engineer at Diyar United Company
There is currently no way to determine how much data is being consumed in terms of gigabytes, terabytes, or petabytes from particular devices or environments.
Security Engineer at Granicus Inc.
If LogRhythm SIEM could make a lightweight version of their solution, that would be quite competitive because some of my customers have a very large need but refuse to go with LogRhythm SIEM due to its complexity and high resource intensity.
Engineer Information Security at N-Able (Pvt) Ltd
The GUI and dashboard feel very old-school and legacy, needing improvement, as all competitors have far superior GUIs and UI/UX interfaces.

Setup Cost

LogRhythm SIEM offers competitive, transparent pricing suitable for medium to large businesses, with high initial setup costs.
Trellix Helix Connect is competitively priced for enterprises, free with FireEye security, but seen as costly for small businesses.
The license cost is around $10 per MPS.
Product Development - Security Solutions Manager at Aplikanusa Lintasarta
I find LogRhythm SIEM affordable, as it is a bit less costly than QRadar.
Cyber Security Engineer at Diyar United Company
We mainly chose this solution because of the pricing factor alone; many other options were more lucrative feature-wise, but for pricing, it was quite competitive at the time.
Associate Cybersecurity Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
It is not the cheapest, but also not the most expensive solution.
Senior Value Engineering at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees
We do not face much performance issues; for pricing, it was close to other competitors.

Valuable Features

LogRhythm SIEM offers AI-powered features, seamless integration, and user-friendly dashboards for enhanced security and operational efficiency.
Trellix Helix Connect enhances incident response and security efficiency with automation, AI-driven features, customizable alerts, and seamless integration.
The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient.
Product Development - Security Solutions Manager at Aplikanusa Lintasarta
We have enough budget for cloud deployment, but we choose to keep it on-prem to ensure data privacy; cyberattacks are a concern, but data privacy is the foremost priority due to sensitive government information.
Cyber Security Engineer at Diyar United Company
This helps SOC analysts significantly as they can monitor all log sources through a dashboard, quickly identifying which sources haven't reported within their specified timeframes.
Security Engineer at Granicus Inc.
Trellix Helix, as an AI XDR platform, helps our organization by offering an extensive number of connectors for integration, enabling us to consolidate all information in a single dashboard.

Featured Reviews

SumitKumar20 - PeerSpot reviewer
Security Engineer at Granicus Inc.
Tool consistently aids in effective threat detection and monitoring but could benefit from improved log source management and resource optimization
One major area for improvement in LogRhythm SIEM is the lack of volume measurement capability in terms of storage. There is currently no way to determine how much data is being consumed in terms of gigabytes, terabytes, or petabytes from particular devices or environments. This information is crucial for planning future storage needs and scalability. The system monitor (collector) agent has issues with resource consumption. Even when not actively collecting data, the agent continues to consume significant CPU and memory resources, which can be particularly problematic for small business environments with limited resources. LogRhythm SIEM could improve by adding more default device support. While they have good default settings for devices such as Palo Alto firewalls, custom log sources often require extensive work. Increasing the number of supported devices with built-in policies and functionality would reduce the need for custom work. Competitive SIEM tools often provide more comprehensive coverage for various devices and vendors.

Centralized threat triage has improved endpoint control but still needs better cloud insights
Trellix Helix Connect can definitely be improved, especially regarding cloud and SaaS telemetry gaps. It could enhance its native cloud and SaaS telemetry integration. Additionally, sometimes when we open the details of a file, it lacks meta fields altogether, and we must manually ask the user for the meta fields, such as when the file was created, last opened, last updated, and its hash value. Helix does not perform as expected in this regard. There are also many false positives flagged that should not be, and there is no on-premises option for FireEye Helix. Lastly, the GUI and dashboard feel very old-school and legacy, needing improvement, as all competitors have far superior GUIs and UI/UX interfaces. I would add that we have experienced specific problems with session timeouts where we randomly log out from the system after some time and face issues in logging back in. This required us to contact customer service frequently, which is also not very reliable or prompt.
