You are communicating to tier one and tier two people who are then communicating on the back end, so you are not getting updates as frequently.

It struggles with scalability when dealing with high logs, multi-site, multi-tenant setups, and large volumes of endpoints.

Setup Cost

Huntress Managed SIEM offers easy setup and cost-efficient pricing based on data sources, aiding in predictable budgeting.
Logz.io's pricing receives mixed reviews; it's seen as both expensive and cost-effective, with transparency and flexible features appreciated.
I believe most competitors charge by the data slightly differently compared to how this solution does, as it is per data source rather than data size in gigabytes.

I did not have to spend more than what I initially budgeted for.
Head of Business Operations at a manufacturing company with 501-1,000 employees
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that everything was pretty easy to do

DevOps Engineer at Veefin
While their pricing is quite good compared to the industry, from my company's perspective, we expect better value.
Associate Director at Husk Power Systems
 

Valuable Features

Huntress Managed SIEM enhances security by combining AI and human expertise for efficient threat detection and response.

Huntress Managed SIEM has helped in both angles, improving efficiency in SOC operations where the mean time to detect is drastically reduced.

Featured Reviews

reviewer2902929 - PeerSpot reviewer
SOAR Catalyst at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
Centralized monitoring has reduced manual investigations and supports 24x7 threat response
Huntress Managed SIEM could be improved if there were more flexible dashboards or reporting options for different clients and security requirements, if it had more powerful filtering and correlation capabilities, just like Wazuh, and also broader native integrations with firewalls, cloud platforms, and third-party security tools. Alert customization is important. One area where I would like to see improvements is the reporting. More detailed, customizable reports which show security trends, incident timelines, and response metrics would be beneficial. The reason I chose nine out of ten is that the improvements I was discussing, which include dashboard customization and advanced filtering options, would make it easier for me to conduct investigations. The advanced log filtering and reporting flexibility also need some tuning. More control over these features would make daily investigations much easier.
Arkajyoti Misra - PeerSpot reviewer
Associate Director at Husk Power Systems
AI-driven observability has reduced investigation time and now improves uptime and customer trust
As for improvements needed in Logz.io, I think cost or pricing is always a consideration, especially since I come from a startup and an Indian company, making us look for products that provide better value for money. Compared to the market, their pricing appears decent but might need reevaluation as we scale further to remain competitive. The main concern for me is pricing, as feature-wise, I believe Logz.io is on par with other tools available in the market; however, it is not as widely discussed. Their features align with offerings from Elastic Stack and other prominent tools, including functionalities available from Prometheus or Grafana, providing centralized logging and other capabilities in the UI, so while the product direction is solid, improved pricing would immensely benefit us. I believe we have covered almost everything regarding improvements needed for Logz.io.
