They are slow, and the initial responses often require more information rather than providing helpful solutions.

I have faced challenges with technical support from Sentinel, though Sentinel support is better than Google's, while Splunk support is also not that great.

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.

Room For Improvement

Google Chronicle Suite requires user-friendly enhancements in dashboard, API integration, log management, alerting, and threat intelligence features.

The graphical user interface could be improved to enhance user experience.
Senior Solution Architect at Stichting Inlichtingenbureau
The UI is the primary challenge in need of improvement.
Google Cloud Security Tech Lead - EMEA at Devoteam Management Consulting
Google Chronicle Suite lacks near time detection.
Team Lead, Security Operations Center at Secureops
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 Analyst 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.
A more user-friendly user interface with drag-and-drop features, similar to key competitors like Splunk, would be beneficial.
Product Development - Security Solutions Manager at Aplikanusa Lintasarta
 

Setup Cost

Google Chronicle offers flexible, competitive pricing but can become costly for larger businesses with additional platforms.
LogRhythm SIEM is cost-effective for enterprises, offering transparent pricing and flexible licensing, yet incurs higher professional service fees.
It's neither expensive nor cheap, and I believe it is a justified price for the features offered.
Google Cloud Security Tech Lead - EMEA at Devoteam Management Consulting
Compared to a SIEM like Microsoft Sentinel, it is much more affordable.
Team Lead, Security Operations Center at Secureops
I experience Chronicle as less expensive and less complicated than Azure.

The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient.

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.

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.

Featured Reviews

Viney Bhardwaj - PeerSpot reviewer
Director at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
Has required significant customization but has supported threat pattern discovery and AI-driven analytics
The integration of Google Chronicle Suite with existing SIEM systems needs to be more mature, so some customization is required. With custom applications, it's quite difficult, and they need to work on this. The automated threat detection features in Google Chronicle Suite come with a lot of false positives and noise. They are new to the market and need to improve significantly. Customization is vital where users can customize the alerts, dashboard, or content as per their needs. This is more required in Google Chronicle Suite, allowing analysts or engineers to create according to the organization. They need to provide cheaper options for online versus offline log storage and improve retention and compression of the logs. Especially searching offline logs is a feature missing from most SIEM solutions nowadays.

Provides strong detection capabilities but requires improvements in parsing and stability
I cannot think of any specific features that LogRhythm SIEM can improve upon since it supports a wide variety of major vendors. However, they need to improve their parsing techniques; the tool should understand various devices and present data in a human-readable format. For example, if a personal Android mobile needs to be integrated, LogRhythm SIEM should be able to parse that data effectively. They also need to improve their database of supported devices to cover smaller vendors alongside the major players, allowing for better global reach and usability. 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.
