Provides a consistent format and is used to ingest data into a SIEM solution
We are an MSSP, and we have different customers. I'm not working on Snare directly, but I'm working on the actual data. We collect the data and create the rules on top of the data and Snare events. I am happy with the solution's GUI. I would recommend Snare to other users because it is better for sending data, installing, and forwarding the data. Users will initially find it difficult to identify the event types and installation, but it gets easier as you use it. Snare is a well-known format, and most SIEM solutions are utilizing it. So, it's very easy to configure on their end as well. Snare sends data into a specific format, including security data and non-security data. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Automated security monitoring increases efficiency, but market visibility needs improvement
I am currently evaluating Stellar Cyber Open XDR in terms of their support. I do not see any major areas for improvement as of now. Their support is good, and the team is small, enabling them to cater to everyone effectively. While I have not encountered significant drawbacks so far, market penetration is challenging due to the product's newness, despite its flexibility and customization features. I find their user interface to be quite good.
