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.

Has faced limitations in AI capabilities and pricing flexibility
Pricing-wise, Wazuh stands out, along with deployment flexibility and its documentation which is extremely good in comparison to Forti. The community support is also incredible. They have helped quite a bit because previously, we had a separate tool and management dashboard to do our compliance. With Wazuh, we receive that information without having to do anything extra. We just set up the SIEM and all of that information was automatically populated. The dashboards are very easy to understand and very quick with no lag or delay. I have experienced delays on Forti's dashboards, but not with Wazuh. Wazuh is quite good. In comparison to Forti, they are quite similar. They are very good at detection.

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 the previous platform and is going to exponentially help the investigation times for the SOC analysts and for just pulling logs and getting data."
"Scalability-wise, LogRhythm Axon is a good product."
"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."
"The most valuable features are the modules and metrics."
"Wazuh's logging features integrate seamlessly with AWS cloud-native services. There are also Wazuh agent configurations for different use cases, like vulnerability scanning, host-based intrusion detection, and file integrity monitoring."
"I would definitely recommend Wazuh to those who want a SIEM tool as a central logging system and for log management."
"One of the most beneficial features of Wazuh, particularly in the context of security needs, is the machine learning data handling capability."
"Wazuh has very flexible and robust features."
"It's a simple solution you can try for free, and you can get support."
"It's stable."
"Good for monitoring, active response, and for vulnerabilities."
 

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."
"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."
"With LogRhythm Axon, stability and support are areas with shortcomings where improvements are required."
"Adding the flexibility to integrate various plug-ins or modules into its core system would enhance functionality."
"They could include flexibility and customization capabilities by modifying for customers based on partner agreements."
"The support channel is not optimal, and extensive research is required on our part to implement Wazuh effectively."
"Wazuh needs more security and features, particularly visualization features and a health monitor."
"A more structured approach, perhaps with modular UI components, to facilitate easier integration and navigation within the Wazuh platform for custom integrations would be beneficial."
"However, in the long term, if you want to build a SOC center on Wazuh, I do not recommend it because it's not stable."
"While it is scalable, it can suffer from reduced latencies."
"When I face a challenge, I prefer not to spend too much time on it and may move to another solution that will give us the results."
 

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."
"My client uses the open-source version of Wazuh."
"Wazuh is open-source, therefore it is free. You can purchase support for $1,000 a year."
"The product is cheaper compared to other tools."
"Wazuh is an open-source tool, which means it is freely available for use."
"Wazuh is not an expensive solution."
"There is not a license required for Wazuh."
"Wazuh is an open-source tool."
"Wazuh has a community edition, and I was using that. It's free and open source."
