Great for PCI compliance but issues with stability and large amounts of data
I mainly use this solution to meet PCI compliance The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements.  The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance. The correlation suite needs to be improved. I also think they need to…

Comprehensive monitoring has improved performance, capacity planning, and multi-source log analysis
VMware Aria Operations for Logs would be used to completely monitor the health of your environment. Second is to understand your existing capacity and forecast your capacity for the next year or so. Third would be on performance management, understanding how the environment is performing, and what has to be done to optimize it. We use VMware Aria Operations for Logs for these purposes. We also use VMware Aria Operations for Logs to monitor non-VMware components as well. VMware Aria Operations for Logs is now part of a bigger suite with several modules added. You have an option to collect logs from various sources and then you can do some sorts of analytics from it as well. All of this can be done with VMware Aria Operations for Logs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"If you want to deploy a SIEM and you want it to be simple, and not deal with much maintenance or help from the OEM, then I would say that NNT is the one."
"The Change Tracker tool is very good and will reduce your overall workload."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements."
"Customer Service: The service we've seen from NNT to date has been extraordinarily good."
"It is a scalable solution; I can say that I agree with the claims that it can be scaled, it is an awesome product, and organizationally it is able to cover our needs completely."
"Our current costs are too high, and this tool will help us to better optimize our infrastructure."
"It was very easy to setup."
"The system's management and its alerts are the most valuable aspects of the solution."
"One of the things I like about it is its interface. When it comes to generating reports on VMs and stuff, it's very quick. This is very handy for the technical team, who need to generate reports quickly. So that's really good."
"The trace log is the solution's most valuable feature. It's very helpful in troubleshooting problems."
"Overall, I would recommend VMware Aria Operations for Logs because it is a good tool with many valuable features."
"It provides multiple platforms, you can use a Windows Operating System, you can Mac, and you can use Linux on a particular server."
 

Cons

"There are some issues with the stability - the correlation engine has failed multiple times, and the reports sometimes take too long, so we have to involve the tech team to get them."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"Log retention should have more options for user control."
"The response time and quality need improvement. It takes too long to prove a problem and get a solution."
"It's great for VMware, but it would be good if they had third-party logins."
"Technical support should be improved."
"In the VMware environment, one area for improvement is the handling of VM failovers due to host failures, such as unexpected shutdowns from hardware issues. Currently, High Availability (HA) doesn't seem to recognize whether the VMs are online during failover, treating them as offline or unavailable."
"The tool is expensive."
"The solution is a very good tool, but it has a lot of limitations. One of the main issues is around how you define your retention policy, for instance, in Log Insight. It doesn't have it. You can't define a log retention policy. You also can't define the destination or location for your logs. All of the logs are in one index or one bucket."
"It needs better integration with third-party analytics tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"Pricing is good because it is part of the suite package. It comes in a bundle for us."
"I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Pricing could always be lower. If it were free, I would be more satisfied."
"I am not sure what the exact cost is. However, I believe the vRealize suite costs $2,500.00 per year."
"The product's price is reasonable, but when it comes to SQL licensing, it's a bit expensive."
"The license cost for any other monitoring tool is too high compared to this product."
"The pricing has been updated recently."
"I think it is a reasonably priced product."
