A tool that offers features like SOAR and UBA, along with an out-of-the-box connector for users
LogRhythm Axon has come up with the AI cloud concept in the market. When it comes to the AI cloud concept, you need to consider that every region has differences when it comes to data sovereignty. The AI cloud concept from LogRhythm Axon was based on real-time AI and ML concepts, along with analytics parts that were carried out. The AI cloud concept from LogRhythm Axon is not something that is available in India, so I want it to be introduced in India soon with data sovereignty compliance in place. LogRhythm should focus more on Axon and its cloud platform, which can be helpful in the future to compete with players like Sentinel and Splunk, which currently offer cloud models to users. With LogRhythm Axon, stability and support are areas with shortcomings where improvements are required.

Provides strong detection capabilities but requires improvements in parsing and stability
I cannot think of any specific features that LogRhythm SIEM can improve upon since it supports a wide variety of major vendors. However, they need to improve their parsing techniques; the tool should understand various devices and present data in a human-readable format. For example, if a personal Android mobile needs to be integrated, LogRhythm SIEM should be able to parse that data effectively. They also need to improve their database of supported devices to cover smaller vendors alongside the major players, allowing for better global reach and usability. I have noticed some problems with parsing errors, event mismatches, and data mismatching, so ensuring accurate parsing and continuous improvement according to device updates are my basic expectations as a detection engineer.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The search feature within AXON is pretty robust. It's actually very fast in comparison to that in the previous platform. It's going to really help with investigations when they get rules put into the system."
"Scalability-wise, LogRhythm Axon is a good product."
"The search feature within Axon is pretty robust; it's actually very fast in comparison to the previous platform and is going to exponentially help the investigation times for the SOC analysts and for just pulling logs and getting data."
"The fact that your investigations can be saved into a single query string that you can copy and share with your teammates is going to be a game changer."
"For me, the most valuable feature of LogRhythm AXON is the log parsing technology it has. With my company, I'm the current policy builder, so not having to know an archaic, cryptic format and being able to visually grab a log and assign an element to a particular meta tag quickly and easily and being able to run tests on that have been super useful. It's going to revolutionize the way the logs are identified and classified."
"We went with LogRhythm because of cost, administration, and ease of use when you're in the tool."
"Technical support is very helpful and responsive."
"What I found most valuable in LogRhythm NextGen SIEM is that it's user-friendly."
"In terms of alarms and AI intelligence, we see that LogRhythm is giving more accurate and meaningful events compared to the others."
"SOAR is integrated with the dashboard that we use for threat management, and because it's all integrated, it is useful for us when we deploy something on-prem."
"AXON has the ability to add and compare use cases."
"LogRhythm is better than QRadar from the point of view of collecting Windows events."
"One of the evidences we have that LogRhythm is being very successful for us is in this year's penetration test."
 

Cons

"It's a very beta solution right now, and there are so many features that we would like to see added in, such as integration with Active Directory, which is essential for user management and for streamlining that process significantly."
"I'd give technical support a five out of ten. There are definitely areas that they can improve upon. Faster response times would be wonderful, and having more knowledgeable staff who provide the support would also be great."

"It's a very beta solution right now, and there are so many features that we would like to see added in, such as integration with Active Directory, which is essential for user management and for streamlining that process significantly."
"The installation was a bit complex because we are running a virtual infrastructure."
"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."
"Stability has probably been one area where Health Checks have not been great with the product, though we do struggle with them on a daily basis."
"NextGen SIEM has separate rules for AI, advanced intelligence, and MP rules - it would be better to have a centralized way to write the rules and create alarms."
"We have gone through a few versions which has caused a lot of instability."
"We have a lot of alarms that get overlooked, there's not a lot of prominence to them."
"I would like it to do a lot of the automation (which I still need to learn more about), because I am essentially a one man shop doing all the jobs. I'd like for it to be able to do more for me."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I know that there are certain payments to be made towards the licensing costs attached to the product...The pricing of LogRhythm Axon falls under the mid-range, in my opinion."
"The nice thing about LogRhythm is you can either use the agents, getting a certain number of agents with your license depending on how you want to go, and those agents do a lot of cool things, or you can use CIS Log host, then you have like an unlimited number of them."
"I think the tool is reasonably priced. There is a need to pay per year towards the licensing costs of the tool."
"The support which allows more customized to the environment when we are deploying new systems is called Professional Service and is very expensive. The technical annual support and there is an annual fee."
"We work with French-speaking African countries, and it costs more than the average SIEM solution. Also, the pricing isn't too flexible. AlienVault, Splunk, and IBM QRadar are more suitable for customers on a tight budget."
"The solution has provided us with consistency and increased staff productivity through orchestrated automated work flows by at least 20 percent."
"It is a very cost-effective solution."
"In comparison to the competition, they are more affordable. This allows us to do more with less."
"I would rate the pricing 4 out of 5. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
