I've evaluated Splunk and IBM Q1 but LogLogic is the best choice for log management. SIEM functionality needs improvement.
If you are searching for log management solution, LogLogic is probably the best choice. The SIEM functionality is not at that level, and I suggest instead to choose another SIEM solution (eg: IBM Q1). In my experience, a good practice is to separate log management from SIEM in a way that they are two separate systems.

A solid SIEM solution that should improve technical support and online resources to be easier to use
A big problem with the product is that we don't have much professional experience in Israel installing, implementing, and integrating this product. There is not enough of a knowledge base. There is no support for this product in this country, so problems have to be resolved through global technical teams. We like to work locally because of the language, and when the product is only supported outside the country, it's a little difficult to implement and use this product. Moreover, AI is something that must be added immediately. Artificial intelligence is a part of the competitors' products, and it's not been implemented for us.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"If you are searching for log management solution, LogLogic is probably the best choice."
"Having logs in a central location helps with troubleshooting, forensic investigations, and legal investigations."
"NetWitness Platform is valuable for creating rules that the solution must detect."
"The most valuable features are its ingestion of logs and raising of alerts based on those logs."
"The most valuable features are the packet decoder, log decoder, and concentrator."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to write rules and triggers for network communication, and then being able to investigate based on that."
"The most valuable feature of RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets are the alerts and correlations tools."
"The detection of ransomware in the internal network has benefited my organization."
"The most valuable features are the threat prediction and network forensics."
"Overall, it is easy to implement."
 

Cons

"Customer Service: On a scale of 1-5, 0. They say the right things but don't deliver when it counts."
"Definitely SIEM – other vendors have gone a lot further in developing SIEM functionality and made a lot more in this area."
"The solution is pretty complex to set up. Comparatively, I have worked on IBM QRadar and Splunk; they are much easier to set up."
"The system looks like it is a mix of a bunch of different systems, and nothing looked like it was quite together."
"But the 11.3 version is a complete disaster. You cannot analyze anything."
"The documentation is not as structured as I would like, personally, and I think that it can be improved and made much more user-friendly."
"Log aggregation is an issue with this solution because there are a huge number of alerts in a single instance."
"Technical support could be improved."
"More customizability is required, which is something that they need to improve on."
"Health monitoring of the event sources and devices."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Many clients are not able to purchase the packet capability because there is a huge amount of data, and the cost depends on the number of EPS (Events per second), as well as the number of gigabytes of data per day."
"In comparison to other SIEM solutions such as Splunk, NetWitness is less costly."
"It’s cheaper to run virtual machines in a VMware environment."
"It is cheap."
"Our license is for one year."
"It provides tools to assist in selecting the appropriate license and usage scenarios."
"The NetWitness Platform may be affordable only for enterprise-level customers, as it may not be within the budget of small and medium-sized businesses."
"There is a licensing fee and the customer can choose whether he wishes this to be subscription-based or perpetual."
