Comprehensive monitoring boosts security, yet incident management features need expansion
Fortinet FortiSIEM should broaden its remediation part to include more features for incident management. Currently, to manage repetitive incidents or for remediation, I need to use a separate software called FortiSOAR. Additionally, the search functionality in FortiAI should be improved to provide more precise results, making it easier for me to understand what actions need to be taken.

Real-time monitoring and analytics are very easy and fast and very easy to use
The alerting and real-time analytics helped the security team. They are using a Hadoop database, so real-time monitoring and analytics are very easy and fast. Queries return results quickly and in very small time. It has full automation and automated SIEM responses. We are currently only testing Logsign, but in a few months, we plan to integrate our servers, routers, firewalls, and endpoints into our company's Logsign instance. Then, we can manage everything using Logsign.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a very nice solution to work with."
"These aspects make Fortinet FortiSIEM a valuable choice."
"We have found the most important features in Fortinet FortiSIEM to be the correlation, file utility check, latest file, and hash changes. These features are important for us."
"If you are comparing the product to Cisco's solutions, it's very cheap and moderately priced, it's affordable and at the same time a very effective solution that works well."
"With the online-based monitoring we've set up, we've been able to watch trends of attempted attacks on our network, and we're also able to monitor our account issues internally as attackers attempt to log into our accounts."
"FortiSIEM gives us a lot of valuable events and details by using a unified event-based framework to analyze all data including logs, performance monitoring data and provides a broad range of metrics."
"This is a very stable product - we have never had a crash with it."
"The most valuable features of the solution is its integration with other technologies, especially its ability to collect logs from Cisco and Aruba devices along with Fortinet products."
"The most valuable features of Logsign SIEM are its cloud capabilities, alerting functionality, integration with Elastic Search, and configuration options."
"It has full automation and automated SIEM responses."
"Logsign provides sample logs within the product, allowing users to see how logs will appear before integration, which is a valuable feature for testing and understanding log formats."
 

Cons

"The UI could improve in Fortinet FortiSIEM. Humans view the UI frequently for data and if it was more visually pleasing it would be beneficial."
"We need more incidents automatically to protect our network."
"Their product support, in general, is not that great. When you log a call, you don't get instant replies or if there is a bug they take ages to fix it and they ask you to hold."
"FortiSIEM is not a market leader in the SIEM space."
"The policy editing should be easier. Right now, it's too hard."
"They should enhance the solution's AI capabilities, including XDR and EDR."
"There could be improvements like introducing some solutions directly into FortiSIEM to avoid the need for separately purchasing additional tools like FortiStore."
"The log collection and configuration management are not great."
"I hope they address the pricing model for Logsign Next-Gen SIEM, especially regarding regional variations. The pricing should not differ based on the country of operation as it can lead to dissatisfaction among customers. A fixed pricing structure would be more favorable for us. I would also suggest enhancing the GUI interface and adding features similar to xFi Exchange from IBM Pure. This would streamline operations and save time for analysts."
"Improvements needed in Logsign SIEM are providing specific security alerts that can be filtered and configured more effectively."
"AI and machine learning need to be developed. If they develop those features, I think everything will be fine."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price can be better. We are Fortinet partners, so we can get discounts, but its price can be an issue at the beginning for others. There is a licensing scheme for every case. There are three licensing schemes that we can choose from."
"Fortinet's products are not expensive, it is less than the competition."
"The price of the solution is expensive. The license is scalable. If there are 10 devices it is simple to license."
"The price is competitive."
"Manageable, however would be better as pay as you go versus CapEX."
"They have a yearly subscription."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM is very cost-efficient compared to other SIEM solutions."
"Pricing is determined based on the customer's budget."
"Compared to other SIEMs, it has low pricing."
