Google Chronicle offers flexible, competitive pricing but can become costly for larger businesses with additional platforms.

Featured Reviews

Viney Bhardwaj - PeerSpot reviewer
Director at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees
Has required significant customization but has supported threat pattern discovery and AI-driven analytics
The integration of Google Chronicle Suite with existing SIEM systems needs to be more mature, so some customization is required. With custom applications, it's quite difficult, and they need to work on this. The automated threat detection features in Google Chronicle Suite come with a lot of false positives and noise. They are new to the market and need to improve significantly. Customization is vital where users can customize the alerts, dashboard, or content as per their needs. This is more required in Google Chronicle Suite, allowing analysts or engineers to create according to the organization. They need to provide cheaper options for online versus offline log storage and improve retention and compression of the logs. Especially searching offline logs is a feature missing from most SIEM solutions nowadays.
Melih Karasu - PeerSpot reviewer
Director at Natica IT Consulting
Alarm correlation has improved incident investigations and streamlines multi-vendor security operations
There is room for improvement for Trellix Helix Connect; I see some direction that they still could improve. The most problematic part was the integration part because in their catalog, they have so many third-party vendors, but some of them were not fully supported, so we requested some development and feature requests. Sometimes we saw that some documentation was not enough to integrate the third-party vendor's product. However, they improved their documentation, so it was a good experience. Everyone expected that we could use an XDR solution as on-premises; they could make some improvement on this point, which is a priority for some institutions. I am not sure what additional functionalities I would like to see in the future for Trellix Helix Connect; they could add some AI features, basically machine learning capabilities, and also improvements in the chatbot feature, but it was at the first stage an average.
