Has provided reliable alerts and helped identify infrastructure issues through detailed reporting
The best features of CrowdStrike Observability include the way they show issues to the client or agent, and their data collection method is interesting because they use an agent-less approach in some cases, collecting data from infrastructure such as firewalls. Additionally, they have the agent, but the presentation in the management console is excellent as we have observability end-to-end with the servers and all the services configured in the use cases. The intelligent alerting feature is excellent and configured on our console, being highly effective as it detects real alerts and just warnings or real issues. Identifying performance bottlenecks is important because they collect numerous MD5 or hash keys including movements or playbooks. The way they organize that in the console is excellent, allowing you to have reports detecting issues, which not only includes detection but also provides solutions to those issues.

Integration capabilities impress while room for improvement exists in cloud compatibility
1. Enhanced Cloud Integration Current Gap: Log360 lacks native integration with Microsoft Intune and cloud-based Active Directory (Azure AD), limiting visibility for organizations transitioning to hybrid or fully cloud environments. Requested Improvements: Direct Intune Log Collection: Ability to ingest and correlate logs from Intune-managed devices to monitor compliance, device health, and security policies. Azure AD Deep Integration: Support for Azure AD audit logs, conditional access events, and identity protection alerts to provide end-to-end visibility. Cloud Workload Monitoring: Extend coverage to SaaS applications (e.g., Microsoft 365, AWS, GCP) for unified threat detection. Why It Matters: Many clients have migrated from on-prem AD to cloud-first setups this year. Without cloud-native log collection, critical security events (e.g., rogue Intune policies or Azure AD breaches) go unmonitored. 2. Improved Automation and Response Current Gap: Limited automated remediation (e.g., auto-isolating compromised devices) forces manual intervention. Requested Features: Playbook Automation: Pre-built workflows to auto-resolve common issues (e.g., disabling users after brute-force attacks). SOAR Integration: APIs to connect with SIEM/SOAR platforms (e.g., Splunk, Palo Alto Cortex) for escalated threat response.

Pros

"The best features of CrowdStrike Observability include the way they show issues to the client or agent, and their data collection method is interesting because they use an agent-less approach in some cases, collecting data from infrastructure such as firewalls."
"The intelligence database provided by CrowdStrike is very impressive."
"CrowdStrike Observability is a signature-less solution where you don't need to update your endpoints or the CrowdStrike Observability agents regularly, and it is completely based on AI and ML search engines."
"The intelligent alerting feature is excellent and configured on our console, being highly effective as it detects real alerts and just warnings or real issues."
"The intelligence database provided by CrowdStrike is very impressive."
"In the logs and the trajectory, it shows detailed information about where the source of infection comes from, how it travels, and how to reach there."
"The log aggregation and correlation of data are notable features that enhance our operations."
"I find the most effective feature of CrowdStrike Observability to be its cloud vision and attack surface vision, which enhance network traffic analysis."
"The solution could be improved by including XDR, remediation and Sandbox."
"ManageEngine Log360 is not difficult to deploy."
"You can have all of the logs from servers to network and it gets sent out to the correct owners. This is very helpful."
"ManageEngine Log360 could integrate with all systems, making it possible to integrate everything to the central location, which made it a useful and necessary tool."
"The reporting is great. Everything you need is in the report for you already."
"The deployment is quite simple and pretty straightforward."
"The most valuable features for us are the application logs monitoring and the dashboard, which provides a single-pane view of all the ongoing activities."
"ManageEngine Log360 is a comprehensive solution, including event log analysis for Microsoft 365."
 

Cons

"The pricing is very high and small companies cannot afford it. They should reduce the price because the backend infrastructure is the same."
"For reporting or log management, having a longer duration for backup without needing to purchase a paid subscription would be beneficial."
"Technical support received a rating of 4 out of 10."
"We had some difficulties at the beginning, but at this moment they are improving, so probably in some months I will give them a ten."
"The customer service is not satisfactory for me. The support is only available in English, and my users in LATAM regions such as Peru and Colombia require local language support, which is not currently provided."
"Integration with Huawei should be more straightforward."
"We had some difficulties at the beginning, but at this moment they are improving, so probably in some months I will give them a ten."
"Integration with Huawei should be more straightforward."
"The solution lacks some features when compared to other products."
"On the PostgreSQL side, it was not parsing much, which required a lot of manual work."
"Most times log sheets are not assigned well."
"There is room for improvement, especially in the reporting aspect. The reports are not as good as those in Splunk."
"The matter of the data retention needs to be addressed."
"Their technical support should be improved."
"It's difficult to find which conditions have been applied to a report because they are provided by default by ManageEngine. However, with other SIEMs if you want to create a report, they provide details, like which conditions are triggering certain reports. This needs to be there in ManageEngine. It would be good to know which parameter has been applied to the report that is updating the system."
"We can log in as a local user, and it's fine, but when we login with an Active Directory user, we cannot."
