Featured Reviews

Oliver Jackson - PeerSpot reviewer
Systems monitoring enhanced by firewall and intrusion detection features
My primary use case for Fortinet FortiSIEM is systems monitoring and alerting. I use it for standard functions like log monitoring, incident detection, and notification.  My customers are mostly medium-sized enterprises ranging from engineering companies, mining companies, independent schools, and…
Ayaz Ahmed - PeerSpot reviewer
Works well for threat detection and security
Improvements needed in Logsign SIEM are providing specific security alerts that can be filtered and configured more effectively. There should be a focus on delivering alerts tailored to specific needs rather than overwhelming users with numerous alerts. Additionally, incorporating more mature data about threats is necessary for better threat detection.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution’s IP database is awesome."
"Its automated response feature has benefited our customer communication. Analysts feel more confident in providing timely responses."
"We like the integration of all of these Fortinet platforms together. Everything is integrated well, and we are able to sell that as a service to our customers."
"The Threat Hunting feature provides complete traffic analysis."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM provides good detection against advanced threats."
"These aspects make Fortinet FortiSIEM a valuable choice."
"It works well with medium to large-scale enterprises."
"The most valuable feature is auto-discovery. When you send logs from any device to port 514, it helps register those devices automatically."
"It has full automation and automated SIEM responses."
"The most valuable features of Logsign SIEM are its cloud capabilities, alerting functionality, integration with Elastic Search, and configuration options."
"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 log collection and configuration management are not great."
"Not very good on non-API features, lacks that functionality."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"Creating parsers to try make unknown events or currently unsupported devices produce meaningful information is extremely cumbersome."
"The solution needs to do a better job with third party integration. Right now, that's lacking on the solution. I specifically am talking about the AWS environment. Most of the AWS environment products do not have that capability to integrate."
"When an alert triggers in Fortinet FortiSIEM, the layout or format can feel limited"
"The dashboards need to be improved. It gives you so much detail, but sometimes too much detail, especially to an executive, it's too much."
"There could be more AI features included in the product."
"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

"Fortinet FortiSIEM is very cost-efficient compared to other SIEM solutions."
"The price of Fortinet FortiSIEM is a lot less when compared to other solutions."
"Pricing is acceptable for more than 90% of our customers, as they normally get discounts."
"If one is cheap and ten is expensive. I rate the tool's price as an eight out of ten. Compared with Splunk or Oracle, Fortinet is cheap."
"We pay for a license for FortiSIEM. We pay for the license and renewal."
"There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing charges attached to the product. The free version license of the product is available for two months."
"We bought the perpetual license, so we own the product, but there is a three-year support renewal fee for that."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM is cheaper compared to other products."
"Compared to other SIEMs, it has low pricing."
