Though the solution offers good technical support, it needs to be made more user-friendly
I rate the initial setup a seven and a half out of ten. So, it's closer to seven. The tool is deployed in our organization on-premises with some test servers. In only two tests in a test environment, the deployment can be carried out. The deployment time only depends on the size of your infrastructure. If I limit the company's size, it will not take too much time. So, it can be done in seven to eight hours. Regarding the deployment process, we have managed some test servers, after which we need to install some agents. If you include more servers, you need to install more agents. If you want to use agent-based, I would say that it is totally up to the stakeholder. You will get some additional benefits if you can choose the agent since you will be more assured that less positive false positive results you will get from the tool. For deployment, one test server, a few deployment servers, and some policy configurations are done by the OEM with some local support. We used some Windows servers and Linux servers, and we installed some agents in different types of operating systems. So different versions of Linux and different versions of Windows. We also integrate some network devices like firewalls to integrate firewalls and logs. So, the amount of logs and firewalls is too much. I have to engage too many employees for deployment. So there are those for Linux servers, others for Windows servers, and the rest for network devices. One for SIEM policy creation and one for SIEM management administration is also required.

To improve Sumo Logic Security, I would appreciate the tool being easier to use from a search perspective. For example, we have a few teams that want to use the tool itself, but they are not as savvy when it comes to creating searches from the core platform. I understand that Mobot has come out and is in the works, and it really does assist non-savvy users when it comes to querying the platform. As far as that is concerned, I wish that could be improved a bit more, but I do know that that is in the works. I would add that I wish for improved documentation. For example, we are using Sumo Playbooks and automation integrations along with that, but I have found that there has been a lack of documentation, very little to none at all when it comes to that. With regards to automation integrations as well, there are very few details included in them. I would also appreciate the AWS automation integrations to be more secure because currently, they are using access keys, which involves a user rather than roles, which is the security best practice recommended by AWS. I chose eight out of ten because to make it a nine or ten, I would lean heavily on the documentation. A lot of the times when we get around to configuring things such as playbooks or trying to understand playbooks, what I found was that documentation sometimes is not up to date or documentation is lacking. There are instances also where some security best practices are not being followed. So, if we are able to set up an integration that is not only secure, following security best practices, and has complete documentation, I believe it would alleviate the issue of having to go back and forth with support to check the documentation and things of that nature. My impression of the built-in threat intelligence feature in Sumo Logic Security is that it is comprehensive, but I would say that it could do a little bit better. For example, we have the TAXI feeds, which is STIX and TAXI integrated into the core platform, but the issue I am running into is that I am able to use that feed into a CSE alert; however, I am not able to see the contents of that feed. If I integrate CISA, which we do have integrated, I cannot see what IOCs are in that feed in the core platform, and I hope that is the case because, in order for us to better tune our alerts, we need to be able to see what is in the contents of that threat intelligence feed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We developed around this solution and received excellent support from the company."
"The most valuable feature is the management features. It's capable of managing large enterprises."
"The most valuable feature is the management features. It's capable of managing large enterprises."
"The custom dashboard and correlation alerts in this solution improved our incident response process."
"RSA enVision provides the full system visibility of your events within your IT ecosystem."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the reporting."
"The configuration part is very easy...The technical support was sincere in their responses...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"The ease of log collection and stability of the platform are the most valuable features."
"As a cloud-native SIEM, it scales up very well automatically, and real-time threat detection is available, so detection time has dropped significantly from three to four hours to under 30 minutes, reducing alert fatigue by over 100 days of low-volume alerts and significantly improving our KPIs, alert efficiency, decision quality, and operational stability."
"We are able to diagnose problems before our customers."
"Sumo Logic Security is a good solution for searching the logs and identifying the issues."
"We can integrate threat intelligence solutions into the product."
"Before Sumo Logic, we had to login to every server and verify each error log to determine the problem, and with this tool, we provide every developer team the ability to find errors, then they come to us and ask for specific help."
"Compared to other tools, I prefer the UI much better as it categorizes data very well for me."
"The Log Analytics platform is the most effective. If we cannot find the data in other tools, like email security or NDR, we can fetch those logs in the Log Analytics platform of Sumo Logic."
"My SOC analysts were crushed under Splunk, but Sumo has actually eased the workload and made it tolerable for three people."
 

Cons

"In general, the solution currently isn't user-friendly."
"The integration could be easier, it should support more products."
"Sometimes the investigation panel and reporting engine work very slowly."
"Whenever you perform the query, it takes too long."
"Licensing could be improved to be more oriented towards Managed Service Providers (MSPs)."
"RSA enVision log manager is out of date and is not in use anymore."
"There is no future for this solution. It does not exist anymore."
"The integration could be easier, it should support more products."
"The solution should improve its UI."
"If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see."
"The pricing could be more competitive. Sumo Logic bills based on the amount of data that you ingest into their platform."
"We would like to have some type of predefined setup for the logs, making the setup easier by default."
"I would like better UI-driven functionality to create alerts and reports. Now, we have to understand the syntax, so it is a little difficult for someone to pick it up without using the manuals."
"I don't recommend this product."
"If you want to up your subscription through the AWS Marketplace, it can be difficult."
"The dashboard has room for improvement, because sometimes it is a difficult to create a specific dashboard or query. This would be a nice place to correct problems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high price, I rate the pricing a six."
"We no longer pay a licensing fee because it is out of date and don't pay for support."
"The license pricing model is based on the events that are processed through the solution."
"The AWS Marketplace pricing is borderline. Every annual renewal, we always contemplate if we are getting what we think we could out of it or could we do it cheaper with some other product."
"Storing logs in Sumo Logic Security is charged GB-wise, which is a little higher than other products."
"If we went to ELK Stack, which is open source, it would have been less costly, but it would have required more development from our side."
"The AWS Marketplace pricing is fairly reasonable for what it does. I wouldn't call it expensive, but I wouldn't call it cheap. It is pretty good."
"I don't pay the bill. I've heard the AWS Marketplace pricing is high, but I like the value."
"The product is costly."
"Purchasing the solution through the AWS Marketplace is very easy."
