I've evaluated Splunk and IBM Q1 but LogLogic is the best choice for log management. SIEM functionality needs improvement.
If you are searching for log management solution, LogLogic is probably the best choice. The SIEM functionality is not at that level, and I suggest instead to choose another SIEM solution (eg: IBM Q1). In my experience, a good practice is to separate log management from SIEM in a way that they are two separate systems.

Advanced threat detection has improved investigations but complexity and resource use need refinement
LogRhythm SIEM could learn from Wazuh, as Wazuh has a built-in mechanism that allows you to write custom scripting and scripts through languages that Wazuh can then trigger, which is somewhat better and more matured in Wazuh compared to LogRhythm SIEM. Additionally, the parsers that I write for LogRhythm SIEM tend to get quite complex for log parsing, while with Wazuh, I can achieve a similar parser with much less complexity. Those are some of the pain points that some of our customers have been expressing. If LogRhythm SIEM could make a lightweight version of their solution, that would be quite competitive because some of my customers have a very large need but refuse to go with LogRhythm SIEM due to its complexity and high resource intensity. Therefore, they have been moved to Wazuh, which I am deploying for them. Even though LogRhythm SIEM has extremely good capabilities, their resource utilization is too heavy for certain customers, so if they could make a separate, lightweight version, that would be quite beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"If you are searching for log management solution, LogLogic is probably the best choice."
"Having logs in a central location helps with troubleshooting, forensic investigations, and legal investigations."
"We went through a competitive comparison of the three leading platforms out there, and it was an easy win, not only from the technology side, but from the company with its support."
"For what it does, LogRhythm works pretty well."
"The most valuable feature is scheduling the KB update, which reduces administrative effort."
"We looked at LogRhythm, and LogRhythm seemed to have a lot of the stuff built in, canned already."
"This solution has improved our organization in many different ways. The biggest benefit is being able to view all information in one dashboard instead of having to look at several different applications and dashboards. I can see information across our entire environment and every aspect of our network."
"The ability to investigate a particular period of time where you can analyze logs is its most valuable feature."
"We integrated Azure logs with it and that makes it simpler. Rather than having to log into the portal, we can just check everything in one place. We can compare those to our Windows and host logs to see if any problems correlate between them."
"The visibility that it gives us into all of our data at once."
 

Cons

"Definitely SIEM – other vendors have gone a lot further in developing SIEM functionality and made a lot more in this area."
"Customer Service: On a scale of 1-5, 0. They say the right things but don't deliver when it counts."
"NextGen SIEM's integration with other software is good but could be improved."
"I think where I see room for improvement for LogRhythm is probably granularization of log source types."
"We use Windows Event Forwarding to collect the logs from our Windows clients, and the logs get aggregated as one data source on that collector. Therefore, finding logs specific to one particular Windows system requires some creativity in how we search the SIEM."
"Definitely expansion on log parsing. There are some obscure log sources that we don't currently have parsers for."
"I think there were a couple of years in the very beginning when I was a little frustrated with them, but now, and especially, we just bought a new box last year, the newer version, it seems to have a lot of the kinks worked out, and so I wouldn't have any problem recommending them."
"It's not easy for someone new to the solution."
"The initial setup is not so easy because it is quite a process."
"Sometimes the error-logging is not altogether helpful. There have been many times where I've been disappointed, where I'll ramp an agent up to Verbose and it will say, "LogRhythm critical error, the agent won't bind to a NIC," or the like, and I end up with no really actionable or identifiable information coming in, even though I've ramped up the logging level."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"In the context of our country, the price of this solution is too high."
"We have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. As it comes out new features and new releases, the window is becoming a lot narrower because you can pivot a lot more with the data. Therefore, the new features and enhancements are reducing that."
"NextGen SIEM's pricing is moderate."
"On a scale of one to ten, I'd rate the pricing of this solution as a seven - not too expensive but not cheap either. Regarding licensing costs, it varies depending on factors like being a partner or an end user, but there are no additional costs aside from standard licensing fees for the basic SIEM solution."
"Look for whatever will give you the most value. That's the main point. It is not one size fits all."
"I would rate the pricing 4 out of 5. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high, I rate the pricing between six and seven."
