Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is the most valuable tool that I have seen of the SIEM solutions."
"The product has been very stable."
"The asset management of nodes has been a large help in terms of being able to track applications with more detail and have changes made being monitored into one source."
"Beyond provided us with an IDS as was our initial need, but AlienVault gave us more useful resources, as SIEM, and as a vulnerability scanner (the last, one of my favourite resources)."
"Being able to identify security issues as they occur at near real time and then respond to them as soon as they occur is priceless."
"The AlienVault solution has enabled us to create a SOC on a budget with smaller than usual staff requirements, offering a wider range of solutions for our customers."
"This solution can completely detect and prevent incidents on your network."
"All companies should buy an AlienVault SIEM, as it is well worth the investment."
"We have not encountered any issues with stability."
"​I would rate the technical support very well as they are knowledgeable and quick to respond​."
 

Cons

"Although they use machine learning, the algorithms that they use are graph-based."
"The vulnerability management solution is worse than buying a Nessus Professional license."
"I've been told that AlienVault doesn't have a full version of NES running in there, but I'm not sure if that's accurate or if my engineer made it that way. I'm not sure he was completely honest either because we had NES in the environment before. Those tools could be improved because AlienVault is a SIEM, and it added all these other features."
"It needs to be easier to deploy switch monitoring."
"I'd like to see built in support to detect more security incidents."
"The configuration is somewhat complex and the interface a bit non-intuitive."
"Yet, a lot of the releases break things that are used."
"Reporting is convoluted and difficult at times, although they claim to have hundreds of pre-built reports, very few of them are actually useful for anything but what the USM is doing."
"​It was very complex. There was poor native correlation. ​"
"​It needs to have better reporting. ​"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is in the medium to upper range."
"The ROI is quite good."
"It allows you to do a lot with a small price tag... The pricing is the best on the market."
"I don't know exactly, but I know it is based on the number of logs and the retention duration, such as 30 days or something like that. So, the smallest package is about 500 a month for 30 days of logs. There is a virtual machine. You need resources for it. It is a log collecting VM. They provide the software, and you just have to load a virtual machine. So, you're going to incur some CPU RAM and storage for wherever this log collecting appliance is running, which typically is in our cloud and on our platform for the customer."
"We ran a few PoCs. The price and feature set were the best with AlienVault."
"The price of this solution is reasonable, which is one of the reasons why we selected it over other solutions."
"​The price point is good.​"
"Its price is much lower than McAfee ESM."
"Do a PoC. Make it detailed so it can help later."
