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.

I do not have any areas for improvement in ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) as I have not delved deeply into it; overall, it is a good package. I would like to see the detection and response features included in the next release of ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager (ESM), as security orchestration and automation are increasingly important.

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."
"The real-time analysis adds value."
"This process has helped to improve our organization because we have centralized the intra-group security equipment logs."
"The most valuable features of ArcSight ESM are the dashboards, ease of management for anyone, and simple for teams to provide reports related to cyber security. There are a lot of good features that are provided."
"It is easy to use when we created some dashboards for analytics."
"ESM has valuable features for event prediction and security analysis."
"For the typical malware or intrusion, this solution assists us by identifying the symptoms based on network traffic from the application servers."
"It greatly changed our work habits in the organization allowing us to not only trace back security threats, but also to generate usage trends, discover anomalies and so many other usages."
"Before we would have to have a large number of staff to be able to go in and do consulting opportunities, to mitigate and remediate security intrusions on given clients, now using ArcSight, albeit there may be a capital upfront cost to buy the software product, it enables us to speed our time to resolution."
 

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 web console should have all the features of the standard console."
"It would be nice if the interface were more user-friendly, with, for example, a minimal number of tabs to navigate."
"The analytics feature is not reliable and needs improvement for more detailed analysis.​"
"Make sure you tune it to your business and infrastructure, which isn't necessarily part of technical support."
"The technical support was not very good. They are slow and not very efficient."
"Sometimes, it takes ages to get an issue resolved. I have ArcSight experience, so I normally try to fix things on my own or find a workaround, but it's tough to get support when I need it."
"Honestly, I won't recommend the ArcSight to another person."
"The only concern is that AI needs to be integrated"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Aggregation can help a lot in pushing down licensing costs."
"HPE ArcSight pricing might be more expensive than other SIEM solutions, but in my opinion it has powerful features and great flexibility in developing complex use cases."
"Customers without a ton of resources to dedicate to deployment may be better served by a managed ArcSight service."
"Pricing is good, I'd rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with ten being low price. It's better than Splunk and IBM QRadar because their pricing is based on EPS."
"The pricing is great compared to others."
"​It is best to be an institutional buyer and directly contact the sales team, as they can provide over-the-top discounts for bulk orders.​"
"ArcSight ESM is an affordable solution, it cost approximately $200,000 for three years. This price was at a substantial discount."
"The cost of the solution is not very high, although hiring a qualified analyst to work with the product is expensive."
