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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"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."
"The product is now stable and it is a Swiss army knife packed with lot of tools."
"AlienVault's "Overview" dashboard makes it very easy to see everything going on in your network that needs your immediate attention."
"SIEM capabilities, vulnerability scanning, asset discovery/management features."
"This is a USM, so being able to get all the features under one roof makes it a good product with good new features."
"Every activity on the firewall is recorded, and notifications are sent with this solution."
"AlienVault provides us with a very easy to use, central spot to view log files, and take appropriate action."
"Customer service is excellent, very responsive, and they know their product."
"The feature that I liked the most is that they have a vulnerability assessment package that comes along with the SIEM solution. So, whenever I find any threat or alert for any of the devices or servers, I could immediately initiate a vulnerability assessment scan on that machine. That is one of a kind. The price at which AlienVault operates is also valuable."
 

Cons

"I'd give technical support a five out of ten. There are definitely areas that they can improve upon, and faster response times would be wonderful, and having more knowledgeable staff who provide the support would also be great."
"With LogRhythm Axon, stability and support are areas with shortcomings where improvements are required."
"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."
"It would be nice to see some machine learning and monitoring of the configuration in network devices."
"AlienVault must improve their correlation feature. Some of the events do not match with the correlation rules and some of the correlation events are false-positive."
"Plugins: most plugins are not up to date with the newer versions of products."
"Although they use machine learning, the algorithms that they use are graph-based."
"Sometimes the log is unclear, and the report is a bit ambiguous."
"Its reporting tools need improvements."
"Windows log collection works with HIDS, but documentation is sparse and confusing."
"We would like more plugins. This being the main point of improvement which would benefit the users."
 

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."
"Pricing is very competitive with other products and you get much more functionality from AlienVault."
"It is a product that is priced in a medium range, making it neither a cheap nor a costly product."
"QRadar, ArcSight and Splunk are some of the most expensive SIEM products out there in the market and not everyone has the budget to buy them. In such cases, AV USM is a very cost effective alternative."
"AlienVault is certainly not nearly as expensive as Splunk or QRadar. It's decently priced, but I don't have the exact figure."
"It's saved security costs."
"I rate the price of AT&T AlienVault USM a four out of five."
"Negotiate the best package for your environment."
"Its price is in the medium to upper range."
