Have managed daily asset and alert monitoring effectively but have encountered limitations with manual processes and interface usability

It's still very manual and doesn't work on its own. It's still in an early stage and not on par where we can consider it a really successful detection system. The accuracy is not there. The UI could be better when compared to Sentinels where we can use flags and tagging. It could be much more user-friendly. IBM Security QRadar has all features and is fully competitive with other SIEM tools, but when it comes to user-friendliness, a new user takes time to get used to it. More intuitive, user-friendly interfaces and more helpful documentation would be beneficial. The query searching and data fetching could be faster. In large to very large organizations with around 5,000 or 6,000 assets or beyond, even with proper configurations and RAM and hardware backing up, the query is fairly slow.

Centralized console enables efficient incident management and threat intelligence integration

I am struggling to export all alerts, such as those from the past five to six months, at once. I would like to extract these alerts in Excel format in one go, but I have not found this feature yet. I raised a ticket to the OEM, but I have not received a solution.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It has a powerful GUI where you can put together your use cases, and don't have to write your own scripts."

"I have used IBM QRadar User Behavior Analytics in a Cloud Pak on Amazon, and there it runs on top of it and is easy to assess. Additionally, I have installed processes and characters."

"IBM QRadar is great help from its security event monitoring to data center and NOC troubleshooting of issues hard for other departments to spot."

"This is a distributed application, meaning that a customer can stack small and then scale it so that they can expand pretty effectively. You can use, basically, the same product in an SMB or a large enterprise."

"With QRadar we managed to focus on the more critical incidents that we have experienced and as a result we have managed to decrease the most critical incidents and most critical attacks, and now we are focusing on the ones that are not too heavy or too critical so at the moment we are more secure than before."

"IBM QRadar Advisor with Watson is aligned with regards to what's happening in the public space in terms of the phishing attacks that we are seeing prevalent in the market, and the use cases are very practical, offering quite a bit of protection."

"We can easily monitor many things using this tool."

"Providing real-time visibility for threat detection and prioritization - QRadar SIEM provides contextual and actionable surveillance across the entire IT infrastructure, helping organizations detect and remediate threats often missed by other security solutions."

More IBM Security QRadar pros

"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Managed XDR is the console."

"I appreciate the detection and response methodology used against virus and ransomware attacks."

"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Managed XDR is that it protects all of the layers."

"The response time to any issues is very quick, providing a high level of client satisfaction."

"The features are such that MDR is a part of XDR, which includes different products."

"The initial setup is very straightforward. CIOs appreciate the ease of installation, server configuration, and the user-friendly dashboard."

"Trend Micro Managed XDR has indeed enhanced our customers' threat detection capabilities. Many of our clients are utilizing it and have experienced positive outcomes. Overall, I would recommend it, especially considering the rising popularity of Trend Micro and its excellent product support."

"The tool has significantly improved threat detection and response times for my clients' organizations. The solution has performed exceptionally well, and my customers are pleased with both the performance of the system and the support they receive."

Cons

"Its architecture is very complicated."

"The first area for improvement is the cost. It's a little bit too expensive for us."

"IBM QRadar User Behavior Analytics could improve machine learning use cases because they are limited and most of the use cases are rule-based. They should develop more use cases, such as in Securonix or Exabeam because they will detect a threat. Using machine learning is mainly on the correlation rules, but if you think about Exabeam or Securonix, they detect using machine learning or machine learning-based algorithms."

"IBM QRadar could improve the plugins and threat detection."

"The performance of the solution could be improved."

"QRadar UBA only keeps the data for a short while (it's refreshed every five minutes) and would be improved if this were extended to a week or month."

"The solution is not as flexible as Splunk."

"Before we didn't have any security issues but recently a few of the user emails were hacked. We had to actually recreate their emails for them."

More IBM Security QRadar cons

"The product could benefit from some improvements in its interface and organization. Functionality-wise, it performs well, but there's room for enhancement in terms of user-friendliness. There are ample resources like documents and videos provided by most vendors to assist users, although reaching out for direct support might not always be straightforward."

"Trend Micro Managed XDR could improve its support documents. This would allow us to explore the solution better and provide a better presentation to our customers. Addiontaally, there could be more automation features."

"Trend Micro Managed XDR could improve its support documents."

"I am struggling to export all alerts, such as those from the past five to six months, at once. I would like to extract these alerts in Excel format in one go, but I have not found this feature yet."

"Being cost-effective is crucial, allowing customers with lower budgets to access the services. Offering a range of services at various price points ensures that customers can find suitable options without being compelled to explore alternative products or vendors."

"On the financial side, it is quite expensive."

"The main drawback is the lack of local language support in Oman."

"There is a need for greater integration of non-Microsoft devices."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Go through a vulnerability assessment review for price breaks. A virtualized solution will also cut down on cost."

"Our licensing costs for this solution is on a yearly basis."

"The maintenance costs are high."

"You have a one-time payment, and you also can purchase it for one year as a subscription. We have it on-premise, and we have a permanent license for it. We have to pay for the support on a yearly basis. If you compare its cost with Sentinel for one year, QRadar would seem more expensive, but if you compare its cost over five or ten years, Azure Sentinel will be more expensive than QRadar. If you compare its cost with Sentinel for one year, QRadar would seem more expensive, but if you compare its cost over five or 10 years, Azure Sentinel can be more expensive than QRadar."

"The solution is costly and the price differs depending on the vendor you use."

"The tool is priced in a competitive manner. The tool's price is dependent on the installation and the product size, but it is competitive in the marketplace."

"The pricing is good."

"The solution's pricing is based on the EPS model."

More IBM Security QRadar pricing and cost advice

"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."

"The solution is cost-effective."

"There is a subscription needed to use Trend Micro Managed XDR. We are on an annual license."

"Trend Micro's solutions are considerably more expensive than competitors."

"The solution's pricing falls within a reasonable range—it's not the most expensive option out there, nor the cheapest."
