Advanced detectors streamline threat monitoring with many use cases
Hunter support is functional yet not exceptional. Their support engineers could be more advanced and faster in providing solutions. Their turnaround time could improve to match other tools. When feedback is provided, they consider it and indicate if it is in the development stage. They commit to fixing bugs and developing the module or feature, however, take quite a lot of time. I would rate their customer support as needing improvement. Another area needing improvement is integration capabilities, as they are not yet fully compatible. Users still have to rely on third-party software or integration tools. Furthermore, they should incorporate more GenAI capabilities, a current buzzword, and enable predictive use cases. Their tools should be capable of reading the environment, making adaptations, and automatically tweaking settings as per client or environmental needs, similar to capabilities provided by other SIEM tools.
SumitKumar20 - PeerSpot reviewer
Security Engineer at Granicus Inc.
Tool consistently aids in effective threat detection and monitoring but could benefit from improved log source management and resource optimization
One major area for improvement in LogRhythm SIEM is the lack of volume measurement capability in terms of storage. There is currently no way to determine how much data is being consumed in terms of gigabytes, terabytes, or petabytes from particular devices or environments. This information is crucial for planning future storage needs and scalability. The system monitor (collector) agent has issues with resource consumption. Even when not actively collecting data, the agent continues to consume significant CPU and memory resources, which can be particularly problematic for small business environments with limited resources. LogRhythm SIEM could improve by adding more default device support. While they have good default settings for devices such as Palo Alto firewalls, custom log sources often require extensive work. Increasing the number of supported devices with built-in policies and functionality would reduce the need for custom work. Competitive SIEM tools often provide more comprehensive coverage for various devices and vendors.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Other SIEM tools base their license cost on the volume of data processed, often charging by how much TB or GB data is processed. Hunter, however, charges based on the number of data sources and the number of data entities integrated, which saves money."
"Hunter proactively provides a set of five to six hundred use cases, categorized based on cloud use cases, endpoint use cases, parameter use cases, and malicious use cases."
"This solution has been almost like a transformative change in how we detect and then respond to incidence."
"The solution has provided us with consistency and increased staff productivity through orchestrated automated work flows by at least 20 percent."
"What LogRhythm really excels at is its stability, since, in all the deployments that I have been involved in, there's no break-and-fix at all."
"LogRhythm is a perfect example of "Garbage In, Garbage Out" in Information Security—LogRhythm reports on the Cardholder Data Environment (CDE) activity are only as reliable as the data coming in."
"So far we're pretty happy with the overall functionality of the system."
"We have been able to stop ransomware by being alerted through LogRhythm."
"Regarding meeting those goals, in the last two months that we've had LogRhythm it's been very good."
"We have been impressed with the data that we're getting back, the look and feel, ease of use, and things of that nature."
 

Cons

"Hunter support is functional yet not exceptional."
"Hunter support is functional yet not exceptional. Their support engineers could be more advanced and faster in providing solutions."
"It seems with all of the advanced features that we haven't quite figured them out. It is very complex."
"The main problem I have with LogRhythm SIEM is its stability; the solution is not stable."
"Sometimes it's a challenge to bring it to the second level of support and get the answers that we need."
"Going into the beta, stability was very good, but in the beta it's not been as great for us lately."
"The largest room for improvement would be inside the web platform, being able to have a longer log live time."
"I would really like to see some type of group or global management for RIM policies,"
"We are seeing performance issues with the appliance."
"The built-in functionality of the solution for NDR, SOAR, SIEM, and EDS has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Look for whatever will give you the most value. That's the main point. It is not one size fits all."
"It is a very cost-effective solution."
"I would rate the tool's pricing around eight out of ten."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"Look closely at the cost of licensing of other products. This should include setups and the need for support services. I did a RFQ to 2 other vendors before choosing this product."
"I think the tool is reasonably priced. There is a need to pay per year towards the licensing costs of the tool."
"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."
"On a scale of one to ten, I'd rate the pricing of this solution as a seven - not too expensive but not cheap either. Regarding licensing costs, it varies depending on factors like being a partner or an end user, but there are no additional costs aside from standard licensing fees for the basic SIEM solution."
