Efficient log management enhances activity monitoring despite VPN user issue
Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users. When a VPN user logs in, it doesn't really capture the time before this. If you're testing with existing or new device integration, then the product will be good in the market.

Reduces detection and response times through automation and alert correlation
The best features that Trellix Helix Connect offers are SOAR, automation, hyperautomation, and the correlation of alerts and threat intelligence, for example, when the alerts cross through MITRE ATT&CK, which stand out most to me. Out of those features, automation, alert correlation, and threat intelligence have made my work easier and more effective as we integrate many cybersecurity solutions into the XDR and set up the use cases to reduce MTTD and MTTR from days to minutes. I would add that the level of integration with other brands is something that surprises me about the features of Trellix Helix Connect. Trellix Helix Connect has positively impacted my organization as it is the most important tool to provide MDR service to our clients, which has resulted in specific outcomes and improvements.

Quotes from Members

"I have made use of technical support and am certainly very satisfied with them."
"The initial setup is straightforward"
"The reporting features are noteworthy, as they provide templates that streamline the process of generating reports"
"It is stable."
"The user interface is very good."
"The log management has helped to improve my organization."
"The most valuable features of ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer are the number of capabilities, file integration monitoring, web server log collection, and alert configuration."
"We have started working with various customers, one of whom is particularly concerned about adjacency. We have identified several use cases where automation is possible."
"FireEye Helix's best features are its speed and use of an easy-to-understand language to send queries to the raw logs."
"It is kind of simple and very easily deployable. You can start working with it very fast."
"I advise other customers to choose Trellix Helix, as it improves operations significantly with more efficient responses required for various scenarios they face."
"The best feature of Trellix Helix Connect is its quick implementation."
"We are able to block some advanced malware and other things."
"As far as its core functionality goes, it’s spot-on."
"The product offers very strong automation. Our cyber security analysts don't have to correlate the information to detect problems. They only need to analyze problems that have been identified by the platform."
 

Cons

"Support could improve to make the solution better."
"Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity."
"There's a lot to improve in terms of connectivity. Currently, we're utilizing it across various infrastructures and environments, including others' cloud. However, connecting it to our infrastructure and integrating it with some of our SMAX solutions poses difficulties."
"What I'd like to see as an improvement to ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is for it to be more AI-driven. Having more automation would also make the solution better."
"The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities."
"Last month, we faced an issue with a Hawaiian VPN user activity. It's like a Fortinet device configured for VPN users."
"I would like to see more detailed reports."
"The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability."
"FireEye Helix would be improved with the option of an on-prem version, which they don't currently offer."
"While we have top customer support and this solution is highly beneficial, there is room for improvement due to the fusion of McAfee and FireEye, which has caused some lapses in support."
"It should have more cloud connectors. It could also be cheaper."
"Integrations could be improved, and the dashboard could be a little better."
"I think the usability of hyperautomation is something to improve in the solution because it is expensive regarding the needed improvements."
"Trellix needs to address the price for the product to be more appealing to customers."
"The support would rate a three out of ten. It can take one to four weeks to connect with someone who truly understands Helix and can provide solutions."
"The graphical user interface could be improved. It's not easy to handle and it's not easy for a customer or end-user to learn how to manage the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is expensive. Its licensing costs are annual."
"ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is a low-cost solution. It costs approximately $1,000 per month per server for a perpetual license."

"There is a yearly subscription for the solution."
"FireEye Helix is a little expensive."
"It could be cheaper, but that applies to every product."
"The price could be better. But I think it's rightly placed when we buy everything in one shot, and we get some discount for that. That's how we basically plan our deployment, and it's holistic. We pay for the license yearly."
"I rate Trellix Helix a five out of ten for pricing."
