Managed detection has reduced threat anxiety and provides fast responses across diverse clients
I would appreciate more features in the stack. I would like Huntress MDR and SIEM to integrate with EDRs like SentinelOne to combine that level of intelligence and information into their stack so that they can leverage whatever protections the client has and gather that intelligence to help with the MDR side. Regarding the SIEM, I would like to see more features added. I would appreciate the capability of setting our own alerting based on certain triggers within the logs so that we can compete and fill a void that their SIEM has compared to other SIEMs in the industry such as Perch Security for ConnectWise.

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.

"I would appreciate more features in the stack.

"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."
"What I'd like to see as an improvement to ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is for it to be more AI-driven. Having more automation would also make the solution better."
"There isn't good security integration when it comes to cybersecurity. The correlation of logs isn't so simple."
"Support could improve to make the solution better."
"I would like to see more detailed reports."
"The scalability is limited."
"The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities."
"There's a lot to improve in terms of connectivity. Currently, we're utilizing it across various infrastructures and environments, including others' cloud. However, connecting it to our infrastructure and integrating it with some of our SMAX solutions poses difficulties."
