Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It offers a holistic approach with multiple solutions blended into one platform."
"The solution is very cost-effective compared to Splunk and LogRhythm."
"The algorithm used in Seceon OTM is clear and logical, categorizing events as needed. This helps us identify and respond to threats effectively."
"You can use different solutions in a single platform which is very easy and attractive for customers."
"It is effective because it has threat intelligence from across the world and constantly checks and updates for new threats."
"The solution is stable."
"The pricing of Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is very reasonable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its artificial intelligence."
"The dashboards are very descriptive and contain just the right amount of information. The activity alarms and events contain a plethora of data that is very descriptive and useful."
"It brought our logs into one place for review and set up alarms based on changes we were missing due to lack of having one place for everything to go."
"Easy to use, scalable, stable, and very intuitive platform that provides protection against security threats."
"The setup is very easy and straightforward."
"We're using it more for reporting, that's all. We're using it to help our customers to pass any kind of audits that they receive."
"As we have to service several servers, we can manage them in a economical way, which is beneficial to our team and business."
"The solution also provides basic log storage options for periods of 15, 30, and 90 days."
"The vulnerability scanning is helpful to identify the areas that need patching or fixes installed."
 

Cons

"The product should improve the triggering rate."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform sells some add-ons as part of the whole suite but not individually. If they sold them individually, they could potentially attract more business."
"We are at the client’s end, offering services. They don’t know about security rules and benchmarks. We are working on the discovery and remediation but we don’t really have the intelligence that was available while working with other tools. Human working is also very essential for the solution. The automatic session is impossible to play since it needs to touch Redfin for further analysis. No one has breached our clients."
"The dashboard has always been an issue."
"Certain features, such as DLP, need to be improved as they are superficial and not in-depth."
"The management console could use some enhancements."
"It would be ideal with the processing was more manageable. Not many customers are willing to have a dedicated server with two CPUs and one TB of memory. The cost of this is huge for a smaller organization."
"It would be better if they offered global coverage."
"Pay attention to false-positive event automatic correlations."
"We would like more plugins. This being the main point of improvement which would benefit the users."
"The reporting aspect could be improved. While there are a lot of different options available, there are still pieces which are missing."
"There are scalability issues due to a 60 TB limit, which restricts its use for large customers like banks."
"Plugins could be better utilized, as some of them do not recognize all logs."
"The reporting is mediocre and is something that needs to be improved."
"This solution could be easier to use."
"I'd like to see a dashboard that's a little more descriptive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is cheap and very competitive. It offers good tuning in terms of the pricing. Other solutions like Palo Alto and IBM are more expensive."
"The price is quite reasonable."
"It has a per-asset model instead of an ingestion-based model, which gives predictable pricing. In terms of price, it is in the middle to lower range of SIEMs that it competes against. It is the most affordable solution that we have implemented so far. It was much more affordable than anything else I've implemented."
"The pricing is very competitive. It's not expensive."
"Seceon Open Threat Management Platform is cost-effective because it's a comprehensive platform that offers high availability."
"We used the solution's trial version for two months and later purchased it."
"I find Seceon OTM's pricing to be reasonable, not too high or low, just okay for the market standards. I can't disclose specific figures, we pay on a quarterly basis under a service model. I would rate it eight out of ten. As a customer, I always hope for better pricing options."
"It is affordable, and it also has many features that the premium products such as ArcSight and QRadar have. It is a very good platform for a SIEM solution. Everything is included in the price."
"Its price is much lower than McAfee ESM."
"​The price point is good.​"
"The pricing is a good value. The key thing is that for the new product, the licensing of it, is subscription-based and it's based on data. Clients need to be really careful when thinking about that, because odds are they're going to need to put a lot more data into it than what they initially estimate, which is going to drive their subscription costs up."
"AT&T AlienVault USM is an expensive solution and we pay for the license and the support separately. We paid for the license and support for three years."
"So far, it has been a good solution for a tight budget."
"We checked out several competitors. For what it can do and the cost, it was the best option!"
"I don't think the product's pricing is a good value because they try to raise the price 50 percent every year... AlienVault needs to understand that not all customers are huge enterprises... Their sales team is way too aggressive. The price they advertise is not always the price you get."
