Featured Reviews

Shaik Shaheer - PeerSpot reviewer
A highly commendable and robust solution offering powerful features and comprehensive log data management
It allows us to efficiently manage and store our data. Its compression and archiving features not only reduce storage costs but also minimize the infrastructure resources needed for data backup. Since we have multiple security solutions in place, it allows us to streamline data handling. We can selectively send security-related events to the SIEM while directing other non-security events from various tools to Falcon LogScale. This flexibility ensures that we have access to all the data we need when required, and we can easily export this data from it as necessary, optimizing our data management and making it readily available for analysis or other purposes.
Mokhammad Rakhman - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly dashboard and machine learning capabilities improve threat hunting efficiency
LogRhythm SIEM has strong machine-learning capabilities with behavioral rules and analysis. The seamless integration for case management, along with a user-friendly dashboard user interface, makes tasks like threat hunting more efficient. Analytics and behavioral analysis help me save time with rule creation. Its scalability allows me to add components as needed. Overall, LogRhythm SIEM offers end-to-end visibility with a reasonable price.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The fast search and index-free data retention are very valuable."
"It offers the capability to view live log ingestion directly from the console which means you can seamlessly manage live log data ingestion alongside accessing and analyzing older data from the past."
"One of the key features is the fast search functionality, enabling us to get results within a few seconds."
"LogRhythm has shown to us, to this point in time, that it has the capabilities of being able to deliver actionable intelligence to the security engineers and analysts."
"The daily alerts allow me to quickly find security and operations issues which need to be addressed."
"We should be able to response to threats and gain visibility into our environment that we don't currently have."
"The product is great for medium to large-scale organizations."
"It seems like it will scale easily with the way our environment is set up."
"We take in around 750 million logs a day. We have a lot of products and that would be a lot of different panes of glass that we would have to look through otherwise. By centralizing, we can triage and take steps much more quickly than if we tried to man that many interfaces that come with the products."
"I have found the Advanced Intelligence Engine has provided the most value to us because we can customize alarms based on our requirements and have created hundreds of alarms that notify different people for different scenarios."
"The artificial intelligence engine."
 

Cons

"There are some overlapping features found in multiple tools."
"The price could be lower."
"The integration could improve."
"More detail in the alerts given to avoid additional searches, as often the source or destination associated with the alert is not evidenced."
"More help and assistance with some of the open source products, everything seems to be focused on Windows versus giving some guidance and some documentation on how to use it."
"The customer support system is time-consuming."
"Sometimes, the tool fails to get the correlated events that triggered the alerts."
"One of the challenges of the SIEM for the LogRhythm 7 platform is the amount of time it takes to bring new log sources into the MDI."
"LogRhythm NextGen SIEM is currently based only on the Windows platform. This means that some of our customers have to purchase a Windows license elsewhere. If LogRhythm can move to a Linux platform or a proprietary platform, it would be very helpful."
"I would like to see APIs well-documented and public facing, so we can get to them all."
"We're still struggling to get a real return on it and finding something that isn't false noise."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution has provided us with consistency and increased staff productivity through orchestrated automated work flows by at least 20 percent."
"It costs a great amount, but its pricing is competitive with some of the other vendors. For licensing and support, we pay about 20,000. There are no additional costs or anything like that."
"I would recommend talking to the rep. That's the biggest thing because they will know what questions to ask."
"The setup and licensing for small and medium size businesses is straightforward, though when it comes to the enterprise it pays to keep in mind the possibility for complications given all the extras and add-ons that may be required."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"The license cost is around $10 per MPS."
"Look for whatever will give you the most value. That's the main point. It is not one size fits all."
"I give the price a six out of ten."
