Review summaries and opinions

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

ROI

Sentiment score
8.9
ArcSight Intelligence boosts security and ROI by automating threat detection, reducing false positives, and streamlining workflows with advanced analytics.
Sentiment score
3.1
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM delivers ROI through cost savings, operational efficiency, quick deployment, and enhanced threat detection in compliance environments.
The solution is time-saving, particularly in the long run after it is deployed, enabling us to get value promptly.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
6.7
OpenText Behavioral Signals' support is responsive and skilled, but resolution may be slow and feedback sometimes lacks depth.
Sentiment score
5.6
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM excels in customer service with high satisfaction ratings, proactive guidance, and effective issue resolution.
They excel in response times and quick reactions when there's an actual threat.
If I raise a ticket, it initially goes to the L1 team, but the next level of escalation is really effective.
There is no UK-based support, which leads to delays in waiting for US support.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
6.3
OpenText Behavioral Signals faces scalability challenges, while technologies like ArcSight Intelligence excel, prompting consideration of alternatives like Splunk.
Sentiment score
7.9
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM offers efficient scalability with flexible options, resolving slowdowns swiftly for diverse operational needs.
It's certainly meant for large entities and to some extent medium entities who are on a growth trajectory, but certainly not for small ones.
I can rate it around eight to nine, and it is very scalable and capable of handling tasks, especially for the on-premises product.
The solution is scalable as it is cloud-based and cloud-native.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
8.4
OpenText Behavioral Signals is praised for its stability, receiving high ratings and fostering user trust through reliable performance.
Sentiment score
7.8
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is stable with high availability, efficient log management, and high user satisfaction despite occasional issues.
The stability of Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is based on the events we are processing.
 

Room For Improvement

OpenText and ArcSight require updates for usability, scalability, and pricing to compete with QRadar and Splunk effectively.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM struggles with complex deployment, integration, usability, and needs improvements in reporting, support, pricing, and performance.
Developing custom connectors for each product, especially the internal applications, is difficult, and Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is not up to the mark.
When dealing with a large amount of data, such as when firewall logs increase, queries sometimes crash or get stuck.
The passing and setup are quite complex at the beginning, making onboarding not smooth.
 

Setup Cost

OpenText Behavioral Signals offers enterprise-priced licensing options with additional charges for new features not in the base license.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM offers competitive, predictable pricing based on employee count, with typical enterprise costs around $100,000 for three years.
Licensing is based on events per second (EPS), costing between $50 to $60 per EPS.
The solution is definitely not expensive.
The pricing has similar ingestion charges compared to other solutions, such as Splunk.
 

Valuable Features

OpenText Behavioral Signals synthesizes diverse logs, customizes environments, and enhances efficiency with a user-friendly, consolidated interface.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM offers advanced threat detection, automation, and integration, enhancing security while reducing manual tasks and response times.
Their customer responses are great, and they keep using the new AI tools to keep themselves at the edge of the game.
Compared to the previous solution we used, Securonix Next-Gen SIEM has many advantages on the MTTR part, as the containment and alerts automations are feasible from the response point of view.
The software includes user behavior interactions, dashboards, and training capabilities.

Featured Reviews

Nagendra Nekkala - PeerSpot reviewer
A user-friendly solution that can be used to integrate the logs properly with different connectors
ArcSight Intelligence is easy to maintain; one person is enough for the solution's maintenance. The maintenance person will add new features or devices, make policy changes or configurations, and learn and guide other engineers about new threats. ArcSight Intelligence is a user-friendly solution, and users should buy it if their company can afford its cost. Overall, I rate ArcSight Intelligence a nine out of ten.
Mohammed Nadeem Rais - PeerSpot reviewer
The visibility and analytics from Securonix SIEM have become indispensable in identifying and stopping potential threats before they escalate.
The most valuable feature of Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is its advance analytics, flexibility and scalability. We ingest billions of logs without worrying about resource allocation. This makes it a robust and cost-effective solution for our needs. Its user entity and behavior analytics (UEBA) are also integral for detecting insider threats and lateral movements within the organization. These features help organizations strengthen their security posture, protect sensitive data, and maintain compliance with strict regulatory requirements.

Cybereason vs. Interset vs. SQRRL
Capture DB - they all use NoSQL db and hence solve the ad hoc query and 'go back in time' problem with current best of breed SIEM and DLP solutions that rely on real time analysis of incoming logs (and don't store them). This means deeper and quicker iterative threat analysis and assessment…
