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

"The security level that they are maintaining with the pre-authentication keys is very good."
"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
"It's stable."
"Overall, I rate Wazuh a nine out of ten."
"I recommend Wazuh to everyone and believe more platforms, not just SIEM and XDR capability platforms, should be open source, allowing people to leverage these tools for the greater good."
"The reporting and attractive dashboard are the most valuable features."
"The log monitoring and analysis tools are great in addition to SIEM file activity monitoring."
"The most valuable feature of Wazuh is its EDR capabilities."
"One of the most beneficial features of Wazuh, particularly in the context of security needs, is the machine learning data handling capability."
"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."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve by providing better documentation for beginners to learn, such as videos or other tutorials."
"Since it's an open-source tool, scalability is the main issue."
"Wazuh should come up with more in-built rules and integrations for the cloud."
"There is room for improvement by integrating more AI into Wazuh. It requires constant nurturing, as I have to provide it with code and specific requirements."
"Scalability is a challenge because it is distributed architecture and it uses Elastic DB. Their Elastic DB doesn't allow open source waste application."
"Wazuh is not easily scalable. You have to consider the sources of events and maybe the amount of traffic."
"Wazuh's scalability and out-of-the-box functionality are slightly lagging behind, but Wazuh has improved a lot since the first time we saw it."
"Wazuh is missing many things that a typical SIEM should have."
"Integration with Vyara could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
"Wazuh is totally free and open source. There are no licensing costs, only support costs if you need them."
"Wazuh is open-source, so I think it's an option for a small organization that cannot go for enterprise-grade solutions like Splunk."
"Wazuh is a cheaply priced product."
"My client uses the open-source version of Wazuh."
"They have a good pricing strategy for market expansion."
"There is not a license required for Wazuh."
"We use the free version of Wazuh."
"Wazuh is an open-source tool."
