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.

Advanced threat detection has improved investigations but complexity and resource use need refinement
LogRhythm SIEM could learn from Wazuh, as Wazuh has a built-in mechanism that allows you to write custom scripting and scripts through languages that Wazuh can then trigger, which is somewhat better and more matured in Wazuh compared to LogRhythm SIEM. Additionally, the parsers that I write for LogRhythm SIEM tend to get quite complex for log parsing, while with Wazuh, I can achieve a similar parser with much less complexity. Those are some of the pain points that some of our customers have been expressing. If LogRhythm SIEM could make a lightweight version of their solution, that would be quite competitive because some of my customers have a very large need but refuse to go with LogRhythm SIEM due to its complexity and high resource intensity. Therefore, they have been moved to Wazuh, which I am deploying for them. Even though LogRhythm SIEM has extremely good capabilities, their resource utilization is too heavy for certain customers, so if they could make a separate, lightweight version, that would be quite beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"Scalability-wise, LogRhythm Axon is a good product."
"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."
"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."
"It's just amazing, that you can get the information, especially the AIE information, where it correlates different logs together."
"I would definitely recommend LogRhythm, based on my experience with it."
"We went with LogRhythm because of cost, administration, and ease of use when you're in the tool."
"The vendor team was one of the best we have ever worked with and they were able to work through issues not covered in their implementation manuals quickly and without further support."
"LogRhythm's dashboard is very good compared to other SIEM solutions since it shows many details."
"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 product is great for medium to large-scale organizations."
"The daily alerts allow me to quickly find security and operational issues which need to be addressed."
 

Cons

"With LogRhythm Axon, stability and support are areas with shortcomings where improvements are required."
"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."
"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 would like to see more integration with more products that are out there within the same security field."
"The Web Dashboard UI maybe can improve more to indicate some of what Splunk is doing, because I also compare with other SIEM products."
"The reporting on the dashboard should be improved from a management perspective. It would be helpful if they adjusted the colors and the presentation to make things clearer and easier to read."
"LogRhythm SIEM needs improvement in data grouping and manipulation capabilities."
"Then, there is whole mention of hot versus warm and being able to keep data because SecondLook is terrible."
"Granted, we haven't enabled the UEBA module, but we're forwarding all our proxy logs to LogRhythm and we have a really hard time pulling those proxy logs back out of LogRhythm. However, when we take LogRhythm and forward the same logs into somebody else's user-based analytics software, we get the majority of what we were missing... If we've got all our proxy logs and I go out to Google or Facebook or the like, we should be able to go in and pull that information out ten minutes later, but it's a big challenge to do that."
"I have Windows administrators who will remove the agent when they think that that's what's fouling up their upgrade or their install or their reconfiguration, etc. The first thing they do is to turn off the antivirus, turn down the firewall, and take off anything else. They don't realize that the LogRhythm agent is just sitting there monitoring. Most antivirus products have application protection features built-in where, if I'm an admin on a box, I can't uninstall antivirus. I need to have to the antivirus admin password to do that."
"Their ticketing system for managing cases can be improved. The current system works and gets the job done, but it is very bare-bones and basic."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. We went from not detecting them to detecting them. We can actually pick up what is anomalous in our network now."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high, I rate the pricing between six and seven."
"Everything is expensive with LogRhythm, and you don't get anything for free."
"I would rate the tool's pricing around eight out of ten."
"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."
"Look for whatever will give you the most value. That's the main point. It is not one size fits all."
"LogRhythm's licensing is based on MPS. There are some add-on features like advanced UEBA, the cloud component for advanced UEBA, and SIEM."
"The support which allows more customized to the environment when we are deploying new systems is called Professional Service and is very expensive. The technical annual support and there is an annual fee."
