Sentiment score

LogRhythm SIEM's support is knowledgeable and responsive, though consistency and initial response times need improvement.
We are a critical project for them at this moment, and they provide excellent service.
They are slow, and the initial responses often require more information rather than providing helpful solutions.
The technical support I’ve received is rated an eight out of ten.
The technical support is good; we have a separate portal for partners, and since we are paying for the service, they provide a response timeframe based on severity—critical issues are addressed within four hours, medium issues within one day, and non-urgent issues may take a couple of days.
Customer support is very helpful and effectively solves my problems.

Sentiment score
4.4
LogRhythm SIEM is generally stable, reliable, and efficient, with some performance issues resolved through updates and proper resource allocation.
I rate the stability of Google Chronicle Suite as a nine, as I have not encountered any stability issues.
The platform needs regular updates to fix problems encountered with each quarterly patch and version release.
 

Room For Improvement

Google Chronicle Suite requires user-friendly enhancements in dashboard, API integration, log management, alerting, and threat intelligence features.
LogRhythm SIEM needs better integration, UI improvements, enhanced reports, and Linux-based support for efficiency and tool integration.
The graphical user interface could be improved to enhance user experience.
The UI is the primary challenge in need of improvement.
Google Chronicle Suite lacks near time detection.
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.
A more user-friendly user interface with drag-and-drop features, similar to key competitors like Splunk, would be beneficial.
 

Setup Cost

Google Chronicle offers flexible, competitive pricing but can become costly for larger businesses with additional platforms.
LogRhythm SIEM offers competitive pricing with comprehensive features, though scalability and additional features may increase costs.
Compared to a SIEM like Microsoft Sentinel, it is much more affordable.
It's neither expensive nor cheap, and I believe it is a justified price for the features offered.
The cost depends on the amount of data injected.
The license cost is around $10 per MPS.
I find LogRhythm SIEM affordable, as it is a bit less costly than QRadar.
 

Valuable Features

Google Chronicle Suite excels in threat response, seamless integration, automation, and cost-effective data management for audits and compliance.
LogRhythm SIEM excels in threat detection, user-friendly interface, and integration, offering centralized logs and customizable alerts.
They also combine their source solution into one product, allowing for out-of-the-box playbook creation and incident response.
The threat intelligence, especially continuous IOC feeds, is a standout feature.
The unified data management simplifies onboarding logs and getting them into a usable format very quickly, with little manipulation needed from a security engineer.
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.
The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient.

Harnesses anomaly detection and automated response for efficient threat management
I really appreciate the anomaly detection and machine learning capabilities that identify unusual patterns without needing signatures. The automated response feature allows for immediate actions like isolating infected machines or blocking malicious IP addresses. It is also cost-effective, charged based on use per second rather than data volume. Additionally, the solution supports annual audits and ensures compliance.
