A tool that offers features like SOAR and UBA, along with an out-of-the-box connector for users
LogRhythm Axon has come up with the AI cloud concept in the market. When it comes to the AI cloud concept, you need to consider that every region has differences when it comes to data sovereignty. The AI cloud concept from LogRhythm Axon was based on real-time AI and ML concepts, along with analytics parts that were carried out. The AI cloud concept from LogRhythm Axon is not something that is available in India, so I want it to be introduced in India soon with data sovereignty compliance in place. LogRhythm should focus more on Axon and its cloud platform, which can be helpful in the future to compete with players like Sentinel and Splunk, which currently offer cloud models to users. With LogRhythm Axon, stability and support are areas with shortcomings where improvements are required.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It provides a single pane of glass view, coupled with a whole security ecosystem. The ability to manage everything from a central point, including vulnerability assessments, asset management - including the services provided by the various hosts, NIDS, HIDS, etc. - provides a very efficient way of dealing with things."
"I would encourage others to go with this solution because it is easy to deploy, and it provides good tools to know more about your network and the traffic on it."
"Technical support is extremely reliable."
"Log-monitoring and alerting enable us to know when things happen that we need to know about."
"For what it can do and the cost, it was the best SIEM tool!"
"The AlienVault solution has enabled us to create a SOC on a budget with smaller than usual staff requirements, offering a wider range of solutions for our customers."
"AlienVault has the necessary all-in-one product with the function of vulnerability scanner integrated with detections, so when you detect an incident in a vulnerable port you can act faster and prevent more incidents."
"The most valuable feature in AT&T AlienVault USM is the reporting."
"The search feature within Axon is pretty robust; it's actually very fast in comparison to the previous platform and is going to exponentially help the investigation times for the SOC analysts and for just pulling logs and getting data."
"For me, the most valuable feature of LogRhythm AXON is the log parsing technology it has. With my company, I'm the current policy builder, so not having to know an archaic, cryptic format and being able to visually grab a log and assign an element to a particular meta tag quickly and easily and being able to run tests on that have been super useful. It's going to revolutionize the way the logs are identified and classified."
"The fact that your investigations can be saved into a single query string that you can copy and share with your teammates is going to be a game changer."
"Scalability-wise, LogRhythm Axon is a good product."
 

Cons

"We have encountered stability issues; we have a high volume of logs passing through our SIEM and the default configuration couldn't handle all the data."
"This solution could be easier to use. It is hard for some people to understand, and they need to get training and certification just to understand what it's showing them."
"The reporting is mediocre and is something that needs to be improved."
"I feel that some areas of improvement would be vulnerability scanning. We use a separate product that seems to do a much better job."
"The solution is very user-friendly, but the dashboard could be improved as well as the level of customization."
"The way it identifies systems can use some improvement. It has a hard time differentiating between versions of Windows."
"User friendly interface could be an advantage. Sometimes we may face trouble when we were going through the settings of AlienVault SIEM."
"The only recommended changes I can think of is to have the ability to filter logs."
"With LogRhythm Axon, stability and support are areas with shortcomings where improvements are required."
"It's a very beta solution right now, and there are so many features that we would like to see added in, such as integration with Active Directory, which is essential for user management and for streamlining that process significantly."
"I'd give technical support a five out of ten. There are definitely areas that they can improve upon, and faster response times would be wonderful, and having more knowledgeable staff who provide the support would also be great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AlienVault is flexible on their pricing for unlimited licenses."
"So far, I feel the product's pricing is a good value. The technology is decent. You get what you pay for. I think it's fair."
"The pricing is a good value. The key thing is that for the new product, the licensing of it, is subscription-based and it's based on data. Clients need to be really careful when thinking about that, because odds are they're going to need to put a lot more data into it than what they initially estimate, which is going to drive their subscription costs up."
"The price of this solution is reasonable, which is one of the reasons why we selected it over other solutions."
"It's very reasonably priced. It was one of the lowest among the ones I looked at. Licensing is pretty flexible. They can do a two-year or a three-year, even a one-year, perhaps."
"The licensing fees are dependent on usage."
"Pricing is very competitive with other products and you get much more functionality from AlienVault."
"Do the one month trial and try to work out the kinks during it, as it has free support and service hours."
"I know that there are certain payments to be made towards the licensing costs attached to the product...The pricing of LogRhythm Axon falls under the mid-range, in my opinion."
