Featured Reviews

Sheikh Abu Ayub Azad - PeerSpot reviewer
Great at managing cyber incidents; the technical support could be improved
The initial setup is easy, partly because LogRhythm is primarily based on the Windows platform. It's good to have two engineers for deployment but it can be done with one. It's more about the knowledge. Deployment is typically done in two or three different phases. It usually takes up to three full months to get good deployment. There's the initial onboarding of all the log sources, then collecting data in the data lake, followed a couple of weeks later with some minor tuning before the final tuneup.
Sandip_Patel - PeerSpot reviewer
Evaluating robust file monitoring with insights for community support improvements
Wazuh's most valuable features include file monitoring and compliance reporting, which do not require excessive costs. These aspects are vital as they provide alerts for changes and facilitate the monitoring of compliance. The platform is also relatively easy to set up and operate. Reports are straightforward to extract and prove useful for compliance requirements.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is useful for privilege accounts and super admin accounts. It is beneficial from a security perspective. The tool uses machine learning rather than threshold-based alerts. For instance, it can detect unusual user logins, such as a user logging in from a new browser or location."
"It is easy to monitor users and that is how the solution is adding value to our firm."
"Good capability pinpointing specific cyber incidents."
"The solution's most valuable features are the graphical user interface and the reporting."
"It has a lot of features. It has file integration monitoring."
"I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"I typically use the product for reducing cyber risk, and I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"LogRhythm UEBA’s best feature is the dashboard. It provides several graphs, charts, and event logs."
"It is excellent in terms of visualization and indexing services, making it a powerful tool for malware detection."
"The MITRE ATT&CK correlation is most valuable."
"If they support a solution, it is easy to do an integration."
"Regarding Wazuh, I find the SCA (Security Configuration Assessment) features most valuable. It's crucial for asset management and inventory, allowing us to monitorendpoints and servers' changes easily. This is particularly important for my customers, who aren't heavily focused on incident response but rely on asset management and inventories. Wazuh's compliance management features are very supportive, especially in regions like the Americas and Europe. However, it's less effective in the ANZ (Australia and New Zealand) region since Wazuh doesn't cater to the specific compliance standards there, such as those required in Australia. I appreciate that Wazuh fully complies with PCI DSS and GDPR standards, allowing us to generate necessary reports."
"Wazuh's most valuable features include file monitoring and compliance reporting, which do not require excessive costs."
"It offers built-in modules for file integrity and vulnerability management."
"The tool is stable."
"Some of the strengths of Wazuh that stand out for us include its scalability when deployed on Azure, its open-source nature, which allows for customization based on our needs, and its compatibility with various security solutions like threat intelligence platforms."
 

Cons

"What needs improvement in LogRhythm UEBA is the pricing. Here in Asia, for example, in Sri Lanka, pricing is the primary concern, and this is the only area for improvement I see in the product."
"The product could be user-friendly for someone who doesn’t have any prior experience working with it."
"The search feature needs to be improved."
"The on-premises LogRhythm is not very scalable. When considering packets per second or the MPS needed for additional logs such as web application logs, scalability is usually found in cloud products."
"The product should improve its dashboards. Splunk has neat dashboards. Additionally, we would like to enhance the use cases provided by LogRhythm as its use case library is not as extensive as other tools. Its machine-learning capabilities need to improve when compared to other solutions. It lacks risk quantification in a single, transparent view for individuals such as CSOs."
"The cloud version is lacking and not up to par."
"The UI could be improved a little bit."
"LogRhythm UEBA's data aggregation needs to be improved. Open-source users do not have much documentation available. Documentation is available only for enterprise users."
"There could be a hardware monitoring tool for the solution."
"Scalability is a constraint in the on-prem version of Wazuh in terms of the volume of logs we can manage."
"The implementation is very complex."
"Its user interface for sure can be improved. It is not so comfortable to use if you're looking for specific logs."
"I want more support for regional compliance standards to serve my ANZ region customers better."
"Wazuh currently fails to provide its users with AI and ML."
"Wazuh doesn't cover sources of events as well as Splunk. You can integrate Splunk with many sources of events, but it's a painful process to take care of some sources of events with Wazuh."
"Its configuration process is time-consuming."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten. However, the cloud version is expensive. You need to hire professional services for deployment and migrations, which can be expensive."
"LogRhythm UEBA's pricing is affordable for small and medium businesses."
"The pricing is nice when compared to other products in the industry."
"It is quite a budget-friendly product."
"As LogRhythm UEBA is pretty expensive, I'd give its pricing a seven out of ten."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. It's not expensive compared to its competitors."
"Wazuh is a good tool, but the open-source version has scalability limitations."
"Wazuh is a cheaply priced product."
"Wazuh has a community edition, and I was using that. It's free and open source."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"Wazuh is totally free and open source. There are no licensing costs, only support costs if you need them."
"There is not a license required for Wazuh."
"The product is cheaper compared to other tools."
"It is a free-of-cost solution."
