My company takes care of the maintenance part of the solution for our clients who use IBM Security QRadar in their environments. Nine engineers and one manager take care of the maintenance process of IBM Security QRadar. My company has a lot of certified employees to take care of IBM Security QRadar's maintenance. My company can be considered a powerhouse when it comes to products from IBM. I recommend the solution to those who plan to use it. Splunk and IBM are leaders as per Gartner Magic Quadrant. I believe that IBM Security QRadar should be fairly priced for SMEs. I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.
I give the solution a seven out of ten. We have around 20 users. The solution is of good quality and can be implemented successfully. However, in order to fully utilize its benefits, one must possess expertise in Python programming.

The version of IBM QRadar User Behavior Analytics, which my company uses, is a little outdated from 2013. That version doesn't have the log collection feature. My rating for the version of IBM QRadar User Behavior Analytics I'm using is a seven overall.

I rate this solution a six out of ten. Regarding advice, using this solution purely depends on the use case. If it meets your use case, then IBM QRadar is good, but other solutions like Securonix are much better.

I give the solution an eight out of ten. The solution is fairly easy to maintain and the learning curve is reasonable compared to other products to customize the workflow dashboards and get meaningful insight as far as what is happening within our organization. The solution is also fairly straightforward to integrate with different data log sources. The solution requires three to five people to maintain including one analyst, an engineer, and an architect. I suggest before using the solution you know what your process is, know what your logging sources are, and plan well because It's really a leadership challenge. The solution is better deployed than other models.
I would advise potential users to read the manual or the workbook before going forward with the deployment. Try to match the requirements with the company's needs to avoid facing issues in the future. But if you get stuck, you can always ask the community for help. On a scale from one to ten, I would give IBM QRadar Advisor with Watson a nine.
The version we use depends on when the customer is onboarded. Whenever recent onboarding takes place, we use the most up-to-date versions. However, there are customers that we have been facilitating for the past two or two and a half years and they might be using the previous versions. There are proper version upgrades that happen on a quarterly basis. I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

My advice to others is to shop around because IBM QRadar Advisor with Watson is not for small enterprises, it's aimed at your larger environments that have a multitude of infrastructure and networks that are hybrid across different environments. It integrates into quite a few tools, such as your email system, and file systems. This tool is not for everybody. IBM doesn't have the sort of tool that helps a five, ten, or twenty user environment. This is not advisable to go and invest in the solution. There are other tools that you could possibly look at that do probably some of the functions in terms of monitoring your playbooks and integration points that are a little bit easier to map to. However, that is not a tool for every organization out there. The solution is targeting major enterprises. I rate IBM QRadar Advisor with Watson a seven out of ten. There are quite a few areas they could improve, such as they have a lot of technical manual configs and orchestration could be better.
IBM Security QRadar is a security and analytics platform designed to defend against threats and scale security operations. This is done through integrated visibility, investigation, detection, and response. QRadar empowers security groups with actionable insights into high-priority threats by providing visibility into enterprise security data.
