Featured Reviews

HS
Senior Cyber Cons at MDS
Improves threat investigation speed and reduces cyber risks but requires a more comprehensive use case library
In general, if something needs to be improved in the algorithm, it would be the dashboards. The dashboards with solutions such as Splunk are very neat and clean. I would also like to improve the use cases LogRhythm has. It does not have a very large use case library, so the content engineer needs to develop use cases rapidly alongside emerging threats.
RS
Engineer - Information Security at N-Able (Pvt) Ltd
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

"It has a lot of features. It has file integration monitoring."
"LogRhythm UEBA’s best feature is the dashboard. It provides several graphs, charts, and event logs."
"The tool's most valuable feature is server threat hunting."
"LogRhythm UEBA [EOL] has positively impacted our organization by improving our ability to detect insider threats and compromised accounts earlier, resulting in better security visibility, reduced false positives, and faster investigations and response times, which helped the team operate more effectively with greater confidence."
"I typically use the product for reducing cyber risk, and I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"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."
"The most valuable features are file activity monitoring and registry activity monitoring."
"The product is easy to customize."
"I find the PCI DSS feature the most valuable, along with the feature that monitors the compliance of Windows and the CIS benchmarks on other devices like Unix or Linux systems."
"If they support a solution, it is easy to do an integration."
"Wazuh is free and easy to use. It is also adjustable, and we can use it on the cloud and on-premises."
"My company implemented Wazuh because it was relatively inexpensive. They could quickly get their hands on it to check a box for some audit and compliance."
"Overall, I rate Wazuh a nine out of ten."
"It's very easy to integrate Wazuh with other environments, cloud applications, and on-prem applications. So, the advantage is that it's easy to implement and integrate with other solutions."
"I like Wazuh because it is a lot like ELK, which I was already comfortable with, so I didn't have to learn from scratch."
 

Cons

"The product could be user-friendly for someone who doesn’t have any prior experience working with it."
"The cloud version is lacking and not up to par."
"The UI could be improved a little bit."
"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."
"LogRhythm UEBA [EOL] could be improved with more flexible tuning options and clearer model transparency to better understand why certain behaviors are flagged; enhanced integrations with additional data sources and more intuitive dashboards would also help improve usability and investigation efficiency."
"It should have better mitigation with other solutions and be tightly integrated with other solutions. It has 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."
"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."
"The deployment is a bit complex."
"Since it's an open-source tool, scalability is the main issue."
"An issue I noticed is with tag values in certain rules not functioning properly."
"It would be great if there could be customization for the decoder portion."
"Adding the flexibility to integrate various plug-ins or modules into its core system would enhance functionality."
"The product's configuration part and lack of AI capabilities are some of the major concerns associated with Wazuh."
"We would like to see more improvements on the cloud."
"I think that the next release should be more suitable for large enterprises, because currently they are not because large companies do not rely on open source solutions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is nice when compared to other products in the industry."
"It is quite a budget-friendly product."
"LogRhythm UEBA's pricing is affordable for small and medium businesses."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. It's not expensive compared to its competitors."
"As LogRhythm UEBA is pretty expensive, I'd give its pricing a seven out of ten."
"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."
"It is an open-source product."
"There is not a license required for Wazuh."
"Wazuh is open-source, but you must consider the total cost of ownership. It may be free to acquire, but you spend a lot of time and effort supporting the product and getting it to a point where it's useful."
"We use the free version of Wazuh."
"Wazuh is not an expensive solution."
"Wazuh is a good tool, but the open-source version has scalability limitations."
"The current pricing is open source."
"Wazuh is a cheaply priced product."
