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.

Detection capabilities and helpful support team enhance log analysis and integration flexibility
I find Panther's detection capabilities and integrations to be highly valuable. It allows integration with anything as long as I am willing to write detections, and their team is very helpful. I find its log analysis capabilities valuable. It enables me to filter down to individual roles in AWS, and if I am skilled at SQL queries, I can query anything. The infrastructure as code feature allows me to use Git repositories to manage detections and import detections from other Git repositories.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The calculated ROI around 90-100% for the first year because of our implementation and design of this solution allows me to cut my team in half."
"I don't feel like we just bought a product with LogRhythm, I felt that we bought a team."
"Their customer support is friendly and willing to help."
"The GUI is very intuitive and the solution has good integration."
"Technical support is very helpful and responsive."
"CloudAI has definitely enhanced our security operations; it helps me understand what the users are doing almost instantaneously, it helps me understand what these users are doing in a daily report, and it helps me really feel why our users are doing certain things, why they are authenticating to certain servers."
"LogRhythm's correlation capabilities (part of the AIE component) is much better than Splunk's, and the solution as a whole is generally cheaper and easier to implement than ArcSight."
"Technical support has always been helpful."
"I find Panther's detection capabilities and integrations to be highly valuable."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more integration with more products that are out there within the same security field."
"The initial setup is complex and I rate it a six out of ten."
"Logging improvements. I think that the template to reporting is just difficult, it's hard to go back."
"We had a little bit of difficulty implementing a disaster recovery situation because it was leveraging only Microsoft native DNS and it wouldn't work with our Infoblox DNS deployment that we use in our environment. They've been working on that behind the scenes."
"One of the challenges of the SIEM for the LogRhythm 7 platform is the amount of time it takes to bring new log sources into the MDI."
"I think they're limited now with this to Office 365."
"Definitely expansion on log parsing. There are some obscure log sources that we don't currently have parsers for."
"A month or two will go by and everything will be fine, and all of a sudden, something breaks."
"The solution could be improved by providing more built-in integrations, which would reduce the need for me to build them myself."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is very reasonable and accessible compared to other products in the market but I am not very sure about the exact licensing cost per year for our company."
"I would rate the tool's pricing around eight out of ten."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"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."
"I would recommend that whatever sales quotes to them upfront, they will probably go up. Because they are probably going to outgrow that very quickly or once they start getting everything into it, they are going to have to move up anyway."
"I give the price a six out of ten."
"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 have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. We went from not detecting them to detecting them. We can actually pick up what is anomalous in our network now."
