Falcon LogScale offers scalable cloud-based infrastructure for seamless integration and high data volume handling, aiding enterprise operations.
Sentiment score
4.6
Graylog Enterprise scales well, handling large data volumes effectively, though resource-intensiveness and documentation need improvement for optimal performance.
If there is a critical incident with an associated IP, associated user, endpoints, or whatever factor it is supposed to associate, it associates it by default and makes our life easier, making the SOC life easier.
Security Consultant at SoftwareONE
You could integrate as many endpoints as you want within a fraction of seconds, and it accommodates the number of resources that you integrate with it while maintaining the same response time.
Cyber Security Engineer at eprocessconsulting
When we add new log sources or suddenly increase our ingestion volume, the performance does not dip.
Soc L1 Engineer at Softcell Technologies Limited
More up-to-date documentation on how to do high ingestion and high search scenarios, including recommendations for configuration and deployment, would be useful.
Head of Cyber Security & CTO at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
I haven't needed to scale so far, but I believe it will meet my needs when I expand in the future.

Room For Improvement

Enhancing Falcon LogScale with a better interface, documentation, performance, and integration options can improve user experience and support.
Graylog Enterprise requires scalability, cost efficiency, and ease of use while enhancing alarms, AI capabilities, and integration with systems.
For the ease of use for Falcon administrators, the same documentation on the Falcon LogScale portal should be on the CrowdStrike dashboard.
Cyber Security Engineer at eprocessconsulting
KQL is simpler when compared to SQL. However, SQL is faster and quite efficient, but the language is a bit tough.
Security Consultant at SoftwareONE
What they have done now is added what is called Charlotte AI, which is their new AI capabilities that can help with this.
CTO at Trust-IT Solutions
Mainly, it's about integrations: being able to parse different sources and output to different systems easier.
Head of Cyber Security & CTO at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
I understand that Graylog Enterprise is not a SIEM; it is a log management tool. However, it was able to meet my needs for security log monitoring specifically.
Specialist at Vihira Gets
Writing the rules can be very tedious, especially since the documentation isn't extensive on how the functions provided for these rules work.
Security Analyst at Netsharqs cybersecurity GmbH
 

Setup Cost

Falcon LogScale offers cost-effective, flexible pricing with simple deployment and features reducing data ingestion, seen as moderately priced.
Graylog provides a free version for small needs and a cost-effective Enterprise version for larger, scalable requirements.
I believe when it comes to log ingestion, it is comparatively low compared to any other services like Microsoft, Trend Micro, or Splunk.
Security Consultant at SoftwareONE
For us, it is a very cost-effective solution.
CTO at Trust-IT Solutions
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is straightforward, and the cost is quite low.
Developer at a manufacturing company with 201-500 employees
It costs approximately $50,000 or $60,000 for 100 GB a day.
Head of Cyber Security & CTO at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Regarding my experience with the price, configuration cost, and licensing of Graylog Enterprise, I consider that the cost-benefit ratio is very good when compared.
Desenvolvedor Javascript Junior at a educational organization with 10,001+ employees

Valuable Features

Falcon LogScale offers seamless integration, fast searches, real-time log ingestion, customizable dashboards, and efficient threat detection capabilities.
Graylog Enterprise offers advanced log management, real-time access, and integrations, enhancing data analysis, monitoring, and user experience efficiency.
You can describe what you want to do in English, and it converts it to a query language for you to use.
Cyber Security Engineer at eprocessconsulting
Traditional SIEM tools index logs, which is slow and expensive. Falcon LogScale stores logs without heavy indexing and searches directly, making it very fast.
Soc Analyst at a tech consulting company with 11-50 employees
Falcon LogScale has positively impacted my organization by providing visibility of the logs, making it easier for us to troubleshoot any issues.
Developer at a manufacturing company with 201-500 employees
The Graylog features that have proven to be most beneficial for our data analysis in particular are that we tend to use it as a big data store, so we have the correlation rules that, if something matches under certain conditions, it raises an alarm.
Head of Cyber Security & CTO at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
The best feature of Graylog Enterprise is its high-performance search engine that provides fast, flexible, and scalable analysis of machine data or pod data.
Junior Dev Ops Engineer at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Monitoring improved by up to 80 percent because of having all the logs centralized.

Advanced threat hunting has improved visibility and has simplified custom query automation
CrowdStrike is ahead of the game. If I may say anything about Falcon LogScale to improve the services, I would talk about the way you develop parsers. The documentation should be more straightforward. It is not easy to quickly find the documentation, especially if you are using CrowdStrike. Most customers use Falcon LogScale because of CrowdStrike. The documentation of Falcon LogScale is not on the CrowdStrike portal just like the rest of Falcon documentation. I usually find that the main Falcon LogScale documentation is found on the Falcon LogScale website itself. I think there should be a link or direct documentation within the CrowdStrike pages. It is not necessarily a fault. If you find where the documentation resides, you can trace it to what they are doing. However, for the ease of use for Falcon administrators, the same documentation on the Falcon LogScale portal should be on the CrowdStrike dashboard.

Log analysis has become clearer and faster but visualization and extensibility still need work
The problem was with the complexity and the cost to add extensions. We found this very expensive to buy another version with additional features. I think that Graylog Enterprise does not have customizable dashboards. I did not see them in Graylog Enterprise because most of the time we used the open source free version, which is limited. I think Graylog Enterprise should improve some things that they have in the paid version and perhaps provide users with a menu that gives examples of parsing logs and draws graphics so that people do not need to improve another system such as Grafana. This would be interesting. When it comes to functionalities, I found the log management in Graylog Enterprise acceptable. It is very simple to use and to collect logs. It has support for different protocols and different ports, and the sidecar is easy to use. However, in visualization, I think it needs to be much better.
