Before Anvilogic, we had no visibility into our detection coverage. The ability to break it down by industry verticals, such as attackers and adversaries, is valuable.

The deployment was very simple.

I view Anvilogic as an easy button for detection engineering—you're talking about replacing multiple headcount and a lot of process and oversight with the technology.

They teach you and give you insights every morning or every week, saying, 'Hey, this is not working, so what do you want. You're getting one or two of these alerts per day. Do you want to squash them from error to warning?' They're always giving you tips on how to improve the efficiency of the system itself.

Anvilogic allows me to extract a plethora of information, including mapping TTPs assigned for detection logic, which effectively helps in setting quarterly coverage agendas, thus illustrating its vital role in detection strategy and management presentations.

Anvilogic plus Snowflake has vastly improved our total cost of ownership for the SIM platform; we went from a pretty expensive platform in Splunk that was not vertically scalable due to budget limitations to a platform now that is far more efficient per terabyte of data ingested and processed per day.

Anvilogic has impacted my organization positively because it is native for cloud-type infrastructures and they have a significant proactive approach to cost licensing.

The hunting insight needs integrable capability with different platforms to gather all of that insight and show it on a single canvas on Anvilogic. That is the only feature that could improve the way we do operations.
RA
Senior Director | Detection Response at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
Jul 16, 2025
Anvilogic can be improved by adding the ability to do on-ingest detections. This is something that we have been having a conversation on for a short time now, but I am hopeful that they will have that in their future roadmap.

That's challenging because we're not in production and there's not necessarily a deep bench of companies with previous experience.

Anvilogic could be better in areas of the triage dashboard as they're beholden to Splunk's functionality.

However, after a year, I noticed limitations, especially concerning issue resolution timeframes.

There is a need for the maturity of the product; our detection engineers using Anvilogic every day encounter some frustrating UX experience issues where buttons are not logically placed, and workflows are not working as expected.

Anvilogic can be improved further by maturing certain intelligence aspects outside of articles. This is an aspect that lacks in most SIEM and secure analytics tools, but personally the framework or "barebone" is in Anvilogic, it just needs further maturing.
