Rene Schouten. - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Efficient log management enhances activity monitoring despite VPN user issue
Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users. When a VPN user logs in, it doesn't really capture the time before this. If you're testing with existing or new device integration, then the product will be good in the market.

Cons

"Google Chronicle Suite lacks near time detection. There is a delay of about twenty minutes between logs coming in and an alert being generated. This timeframe, while seemingly short, can have significant implications in the event of a critical issue."
"The tool is complicated for a first-time user. It should also include newer APIs."
"It is still not mature enough."
"In terms of improvement, the UI can be a bit challenging for beginners."
"The dashboarding feature does not meet our expectations."
"The product's default dashboard feature has a few limitations regarding availability."
"They are slow, and the initial responses often require more information rather than providing helpful solutions."
"It is still not mature enough. If I create some content, there might be roadblocks, although this could change in the future."
"Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity."
"There isn't good security integration when it comes to cybersecurity. The correlation of logs isn't so simple."
"Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users."
"The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability."
"Support could improve to make the solution better."
"It may not be as easy to use as Splunk."
"The first tier of customer service and support is not great."
"I would like to see more detailed reports."

"ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is expensive. Its licensing costs are annual."
"Licensing for ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is paid yearly."
