Consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Good filtering and reporting tools but can be difficult to use
It can scale as needed. It's not a problem. There are different teams using it. We have CSOC, which is internal, which is onshore, then we have a security operations center that is offshore, which would be in India. The onshore team might be a group of three, and the offshore might be a group of five. Likely, we have eight to ten people in total using the product directly.

Enterprise Account Manager South at a outsourcing company with 201-500 employees
Advanced analytics have transformed our threat detection and streamlined incident investigations
I would appreciate seeing additional dashboards in Exabeam Fusion SIEM or perhaps more options or the ability to customize them further. While we can customize them currently, there may be additional options available. I value the outcomes navigator because it matches the log piece to the use cases, which is helpful. The correlation rules are excellent. I am interested in whether there are additional threat intelligence feeds available that we could use, whether we can integrate our own, or if we could ingest different ones.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The correlation engine is good."
"This solution makes it easy to create use cases, and it is easy to move queries from use cases to the report to the dashboard."
"The most valuable feature is the log monitoring."
"Our organization has improved because ArcSight allows multiple integrations with multiple systems which we did not do before using the product."
"We use this solution for monitoring our network."
"We have seen a measurable decrease, by about 20 percent, in the mean time to detect and respond to risks."
"This solution allows us to identify connections for all users, and we can see the name, login time, IP address, and other information for each connection to each server."
"This is a very stable solution. It is the most stable ESM that I have worked with."
"The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior."
"The solution has great technology, it's a very user-friendly product and a very comprehensive technology, the security on offer is very good, and cost-wise, compared to other technology, it's affordable."
"Exabeam is very easy to use, with a straightforward platform and workflow, unlike other tools that require more expertise."
"Exabeam includes machine learning features and out-of-the-box rules that we rely on."
"The setup is not difficult. It was easy."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam is the timeline creation based on log sources, which helps in security investigations."
"It's a very user-friendly product and it's a very comprehensive technology."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
 

Cons

"The UX for the SOC analyst does not match that of the competitors, and therefore needs improvement."
"I faced stability issues with Windows Operating System. The installed connectors hang if they remain idle for a long period of time."
"Their support team could be better. They've gone downhill since their product has been acquired."
"The ArcSight Analytic is not so easy."
"I would like to see integration with automation products, such as Phantom Automation."
"This is not a solution that I would recommend."
"ArcSight is not a user-friendly solution and the interface needs to be improved."
"I would like to see orchestration."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"The solution's reporting and dashboarding could be improved."
"Exabeam needs to improve its documentation and provide more customization for dashboards and case management."
"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
"Exabeam should be a bit faster, especially in loading and vulnerability scanning."
"One area for the solution's improvement is integration capabilities, particularly out-of-the-box integration which sometimes requires additional professional services."
"Exabeam's integration capabilities are not good, as Exabeam has a very limited number of integrations and no out-of-box integration, which is an area where Exabeam should improve."
"The customer service and support are not satisfactory."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In addition to the costs of standard licensing fees, there is the cost of labor for maintenance."

"ArcSight Analytics is a bit expensive compared with other tools in terms of licensing costs, training, hardware implementation, and support."
"This solution is expensive."
"The monthly licensing fee is around $20,000. There aren't any costs in addition to the standard licensing fee."
"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
"The solution is expensive."
"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
"Exabeam is not a cheap solution."
"There is an annual license required to use Exabeam Fusion SIEM. The price of the solution should be reduced."
