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

"Alarms are the most valuable feature. We also like the dashboard and how things are at your fingertips. The fact that we can now edit the report templates is going to be a great thing."
"NextGen SIEM's most valuable feature is its user-friendliness."
"I would say the most valuable feature of LogRhythm is that it has built-in UEBA functionality, among other basic Windows packages."
"The ability to investigate a particular period of time where you can analyze logs is its most valuable feature."
"LogRhythm NextGen SIEM is customizable, simple to manage, and there are many features, and the solution does not require an expert to be able to use it, anyone can use it."
"While the cost is high, the security provided is quite good, and for those who can afford it, they will pay for the peace of mind."
"We raise a ticket to LogRhythm, and they will give us their support."
"Its ability to work with all different sorts of log sources has been extremely valuable."
"I find Panther's detection capabilities and integrations to be highly valuable."
 

Cons

"There are other security technologies outside of this SIEM that should be inside of this SIEM. I can see in their roadmap that they're trying to address a lot of these things, and have these technologies built into the solution, because there is no point in going to another vendor or opening up a second window to obtain the data that you need."
"The biggest thing that I think needs improvement is reporting in the Web Console."
"The reporting engine is poor in comparison to other areas. It should be moved to the web interface to improve its functionality and usability."
"Definitely expansion on log parsing. There are some obscure log sources that we don't currently have parsers for."
"More detail in the alerts given to avoid additional searches, as often the source or destination associated with the alert is not evidenced."
"It will definitely help if the parsing side would be much easier, meaning it would be better if we could easily make adjustments on the parser, both on standard and non-standard log sources."
"The initial setup is not so easy because it is quite a process."
"The reporting on the dashboard should be improved from a management perspective. It would be helpful if they adjusted the colors and the presentation to make things clearer and easier to read."
"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 product is inexpensive than other tools."
"Everything is expensive with LogRhythm, and you don't get anything for free."
"It is a very cost-effective solution."
"I would rate the pricing 4 out of 5. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"The solution has provided us with consistency and increased staff productivity through orchestrated automated work flows by at least 20 percent."
"Look closely at the cost of licensing of other products. This should include setups and the need for support services. I did a RFQ to 2 other vendors before choosing this product."
"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."
