Have managed daily asset and alert monitoring effectively but have encountered limitations with manual processes and interface usability
It's still very manual and doesn't work on its own. It's still in an early stage and not on par where we can consider it a really successful detection system. The accuracy is not there. The UI could be better when compared to Sentinels where we can use flags and tagging. It could be much more user-friendly. IBM Security QRadar has all features and is fully competitive with other SIEM tools, but when it comes to user-friendliness, a new user takes time to get used to it. More intuitive, user-friendly interfaces and more helpful documentation would be beneficial. The query searching and data fetching could be faster. In large to very large organizations with around 5,000 or 6,000 assets or beyond, even with proper configurations and RAM and hardware backing up, the query is fairly slow.

Great for PCI compliance but issues with stability and large amounts of data
I mainly use this solution to meet PCI compliance The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements.  The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance. The correlation suite needs to be improved. I also think they need to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's user-friendly when compared to other products."
"We've found the technical support to be very good."
"The query search and log fetching are really helpful in IBM Security QRadar when compared to other tools."
"There are new things that are coming up in QRadar, such as AI to IBM Watson, which is going to create a huge impact in these types of solutions."
"The most valuable feature for us is probably the intelligence we get out of the product."
"From a sales perspective, IBM QRadar is very competitive when it comes to prices."
"The most important and valuable feature of QRadar is how useful it is for preparing use cases."
"It is a very good SIEM."
"The Change Tracker tool is very good and will reduce your overall workload."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"Customer Service: The service we've seen from NNT to date has been extraordinarily good."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"If you want to deploy a SIEM and you want it to be simple, and not deal with much maintenance or help from the OEM, then I would say that NNT is the one."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements."
 

Cons

"Acquiring these add-on apps for QRadar is very expensive."
"I need a solution which will send alerts in the event of any behavior."
"The usability of interfaces could be improved."
"To be very frank, it's not that much help as of now. We are not getting that many insights from UVA, which we wanted, actually."
"It is not app based."
"The solution can be improved by lowering the cost and bettering their technical support."
"While the interface is easy to use, it could be a little more responsive."
"I would like for them to develop a detection management solution. It does not have a detecting management solution in it, you have to buy it as it is, on top of the extended solution."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"There are some issues with the stability - the correlation engine has failed multiple times, and the reports sometimes take too long, so we have to involve the tech team to get them."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"IBM's Qradar is not for small companie. Unfortunately, it would be 'overkill' to place it plainly. The pricing would be too much."
"I think my company pays for the license yearly."
"Licensing can be costly depending on your architecture."
"I feel that the price is reasonable but compared to other products that are on the market, such as an offering by Microsoft, it is more expensive."
"It's free of charge."
"Its price is good in terms of efficiency and the number of people required for implementing various things. You might pay more in terms of money, but you might save on the number of people. For example, if you are using Kibana, you have to pay more for people or experts, which is not the case with IBM QRadar."
"The licensing is also overly complex, as there is a need to buy the work load performance monitoring separately."
"I think that the price is fair, but we can always say that the price could be cheaper."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."

What are the biggest differences between Securonix UEBA, Exabeam, and IBM QRadar?
