Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have been able to see a return on investment as our clients believe in us more."
"The product automatically generated a threat score based on the maliciousness of an IP."
"The tool's installation, integration, and playbooks are very straightforward."
"I like their customer support."
"ThreatConnect has a highly user-friendly interface."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and the ability to customize it."
"It's a solid platform and is stable enough. It is not complicated and is easy to use."
"Easy to use, scalable, stable, and very intuitive platform that provides protection against security threats."
"The new cloud-based panel is excellent both for client review as well as for our SOC to review and respond to threats. It is much easier to configure and use than the previous solution from AlienVault.​"
"The most valuable features of AT&T AlienVault USM are the ease of management and knowledge of what is on the network of my customers. It's easy to understand the problems, and management our alarms and events."
"Asset discovery and vulnerability scanner are good features. The integration between this solution and OTX, which is an AlienVault platform for Open Threat Exchange, is also a valuable feature. It is also quick and easy to deploy, so you can quickly engage with a customer's environment."
"We had used previous products and found AlienVault centralized the logging for our security."
"Allowed us to help our customers satisfy compliance needs around logging and monitoring."
"The solution also provides basic log storage options for periods of 15, 30, and 90 days."
"Ease of deployment across various environments."
More USM Anywhere pros
 

Cons

"Integration is an area that could use some improvement."
"Sometimes, when using the solution, it slows down, affecting our ability to mitigate threats."
"I would like to see improvements in the time zone support of their customer service, considering users are from different time zones."
"It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment."
"They should make it a little bit easier to generate events and share them with the community"
"I couldn’t get any training videos online when I was working with the tool."
"Support is an area with which nobody is ever fully satisfied, so it can be improved."
"The one thing I continue to dislike about the USM is the limitation on reports."
"AlienVault cannot automatically respond to threats like other SIEM solutions, such as Sentinel and LogRhythm. Most of our clients are far away, so it's often challenging to handle alerts when they come up on our dashboard."
"It was easy on PoC, but when we got to the product it was different story. We had to learn the product again and got feeling that the PoC was a different product."
"The other thing is the agent is OSSEC. They needed to create its own agent to help to find threats on the devices that it happens to be installed."
"The reporting tools are a bit lacking for building reports to give directly to customers, but support has been helpful in giving our requests for new features to the development team and following up with us."
"The only complex area of the setup was writing the custom scripts."
"The lack of mature functionality and expertise in any of those areas is a strong negative."
"Adding a parsing interface for the customers would make AT&T AlienVault USM better."
More USM Anywhere cons
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is expensive."
"The price could be better."
"The price of this product is in the mid-range, not too expensive, nor inexpensive."

"It allows you to do a lot with a small price tag... The pricing is the best on the market."
"It's very reasonably priced. It was one of the lowest among the ones I looked at. Licensing is pretty flexible. They can do a two-year or a three-year, even a one-year, perhaps."
"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."
"Negotiate the best package for your environment."
"Use the AlienVault team. They are helpful and the documentation that they provide is second to none."
"I rate the price of AT&T AlienVault USM a four out of five."
