SyedAli17 - PeerSpot reviewer
Centralized monitoring improves security posture through rapid data processing
The processing part of Elastic Security ( /products/elastic-security-reviews ) is very interesting for us since we handle almost 7,000 to 8,000 alerts per minute. We require rapid processing speed for alerts and event data, and Elastic Security is very efficient at handling this level of data. Additionally, Elastic Security helps improve the security posture of Pakistan through centralized visibility and real-time processing.

Good file integrity monitoring and change tracking tools but the knowledge base needs to be available online
For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet. I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's open-source and free to use."
"It is an extremely stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It's a good platform and the very best in the current market. We looked at the Forester report from December 2022 where it was said to be a leader."
"The most valuable feature for me is Discover."
"It can handle millions of loads at a time, and you can always use the filters to find exactly what you are looking for and detect errors in every log message you are searching for, basically."
"Elastic provides the capability to index quickly due to the reverse indexes it offers. This data is crucial as it contains critical information. The reverse index allows fast data indexing because of Elastic's efficient search engine."
"Elastic Security helps improve the security posture of Pakistan through centralized visibility and real-time processing."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
 

Cons

"There is an area of improvement in the Logs list. The load list may need to be paginated as there are limits."
"Sometimes, the solution isn't the easiest to use."
"Upgrades currently released as stacks when it should be a plugin or an extension to save removal and reinstallation."
"We're using the open-source edition, for now, I think maybe they can allow their OLED plugin to be open source, as at the moment it is commercialised."
"Its documentation should be a bit better. I have to spend at least a couple of hours to find the solution for a simple thing. When we buy Elastic, training is not included for free with Elastic. We have to pay extra for the training. They should include training in the price."
"The setup process is complex. You need a solid working knowledge of networking, operating systems, and a little programming."
"Authentication is not a default in Kibana. We need to have another tool to have authentication and authorization. These two should be part of Kibana."
"The price of this product could be improved, especially the additional costs. I would also like to see better-quality graphics."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is fine. Its licensing works on a yearly basis. We have to renew the license every year. I also have a good experience with Darktrace. When we buy Darktrace, we get training free of cost, which is not there in Elastic. We have to pay extra for training. There is certainly room for improvement."
"This is an open-source product, so there are no costs."
"Compared to other tools, Elastic Security is a cheaper solution."
"Compared to other products such as Dynatrace, this is one of the cheaper options."
"The pricing is in the middle. I think it is not an expensive experience if we compare it with big names, for example, QRadar, and also Oxide. I think Elastic Security is quite cheap. I would rate the pricing of this solution a five out of ten."
"The licensing cost of Elastic Security is based on the daily ingestion rate. I can't recall the exact figure, but for 10GB of log action daily, it would cost around $20,000."
"The tool's pricing is flexible and comes at unit cost. You don't have to pay for everything."
"Affordable but with additional costs"
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
