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

"In terms of alarms and AI intelligence, we see that LogRhythm is giving more accurate and meaningful events compared to the others."
"The most valuable features would be the automation, reporting, and the support."
"We just had a great experience all round, and when comparing feature sets, the web interface to the alarm drill downs, the AI Engine drill downs, to the network monitor product, it was definitely on the top of the list."
"The web interface is awesome, it's very intuitive and gives a lot of great information."
"It has definitely improved our security program's maturity, because we have visibility that we didn't have before."
"For the same price, we have been able to go from a SIEM that could only manage about 20 percent of our environment to a full 100 percent coverage of all the devices on our network."
"Having a unified end-to-end platform is really important to me, because I am the only security professional at the college."
"I would rate the product a ten out of ten. The solution is very user-friendly and straightforward. The tool's report customization is interesting."
"I find Panther's detection capabilities and integrations to be highly valuable."
 

Cons

"We have had some issues that have taken a long time to resolve, various technical issues that have taken longer to resolve than we desire."
"Stability is not great but I think that's our issue."
"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."
"We do about 750 million a day and some days we do 715 million. Some days we do 820 million or 1.2 billion. But there's no way to drill in and find out: "Where did I get 400,000 extra logs today?" What was going on in my environment that I was able to absorb that peak? I have no way to identify it without running reports, which will produce a long-running PDF that I have to somehow compare to another long-running PDF... I would like to see like profiling behavior awareness around systems like they've been gunned to do around users with UEBA."
"I would like to see our vulnerabilities counter. We will be using Tenable to fill that void right now."
"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."
"For instance, we were trying to deal with pass the hash, which is a very common exploit and LogRhythm tech support told us they were just going turn that rule off, that we can't use it."
"The biggest thing that I think needs improvement is reporting in the Web Console."
"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

"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."
"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 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."
"The license cost is around $10 per MPS."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"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."
"In the context of our country, the price of this solution is too high."
"I think the tool is reasonably priced. There is a need to pay per year towards the licensing costs of the tool."
