Managed detection has reduced threat anxiety and provides fast responses across diverse clients
I would appreciate more features in the stack. I would like Huntress MDR and SIEM to integrate with EDRs like SentinelOne to combine that level of intelligence and information into their stack so that they can leverage whatever protections the client has and gather that intelligence to help with the MDR side. Regarding the SIEM, I would like to see more features added. I would appreciate the capability of setting our own alerting based on certain triggers within the logs so that we can compete and fill a void that their SIEM has compared to other SIEMs in the industry such as Perch Security for ConnectWise.

Provides strong detection capabilities but requires improvements in parsing and stability
I cannot think of any specific features that LogRhythm SIEM can improve upon since it supports a wide variety of major vendors. However, they need to improve their parsing techniques; the tool should understand various devices and present data in a human-readable format. For example, if a personal Android mobile needs to be integrated, LogRhythm SIEM should be able to parse that data effectively. They also need to improve their database of supported devices to cover smaller vendors alongside the major players, allowing for better global reach and usability. I have noticed some problems with parsing errors, event mismatches, and data mismatching, so ensuring accurate parsing and continuous improvement according to device updates are my basic expectations as a detection engineer.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Huntress Managed SIEM's response time is far superior to any other vendor we have tested in terms of MDR."
"Huntress is a great company and incredibly helpful with deployment."
"The single pane of glass management with the other security products we use from Huntress is incredibly valuable."
"As a healthcare company, what we use it for is compliance, then to protect our data from exaltation."
"It’s a very powerful and robust device and application."
"It allows us to automate a lot of things with a smaller team."
"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 scalability is very good."
"LogRhythm SIEM offers advanced features such as AI engine modules, machine learning, and threat intelligence integration, which help reduce false positives. Advanced analytics streamlines incident response processes, enabling incident responders to prioritize and automate alerts."
"I see LogRhythm SIEM as value for money; I would rate it eight out of ten."
"From a performance standpoint, I have no problems recommending LogRhythm because it allows me to get in under the hood and tweak some things."
 

Cons

"There should be better exclusions of log types and the ability to exclude specific types of logs that might be using a lot of data."
"I would appreciate more features in the stack. I would like Huntress Managed SIEM to integrate with EDRs like SentinelOne to combine that level of intelligence and information into their stack so that they can leverage whatever protections the client has and gather that intelligence to help with the MDR side."
"There should be better exclusions of log types and the ability to exclude specific types of logs that might be using a lot of data."
"I would really love to be able to take some of the data and not have to export it to a CSV file, so I can pull it into Excel to turn it into some other kind of graph."
"A lot of times they'll say something is coming out in a certain release and then we get to that release and they say, "No, we're pushing it back to a coming release.""
"Logging improvements. I think that the template to reporting is just difficult, it's hard to go back."
"Easier creation of rules and parsing, and more user-friendly."
"I would say the thing that I'd like to see the LogRhythm do a better job of is staying ahead of the curve as it relates to things like cloud."
"My big thing is the easability. I don't like to go to two different systems. The fat client that you have to install to configure it, then the web console which is just for reporting and analysis. These features need to collapse, and it needs to be in a single solution. Going through the web solution in the future is the way to do it, because right now, it is a bit cumbersome."
"I would like to see additional features around alarm management."
"Sometimes the Platform Manager crashes because it's built around Windows."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"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."
"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."
"If you don't have your staff, absolutely look into the co-pilot and factor that into your cost evaluation."
"I would recommend talking to the rep. That's the biggest thing because they will know what questions to ask."
"In comparison to the competition, they are more affordable. This allows us to do more with less."
"I think the tool is reasonably priced. There is a need to pay per year towards the licensing costs of the tool."
"The product is inexpensive than other tools."
"We have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. As it comes out new features and new releases, the window is becoming a lot narrower because you can pivot a lot more with the data. Therefore, the new features and enhancements are reducing that."
