Tool consistently aids in effective threat detection and monitoring but could benefit from improved log source management and resource optimization
One major area for improvement in LogRhythm SIEM is the lack of volume measurement capability in terms of storage. There is currently no way to determine how much data is being consumed in terms of gigabytes, terabytes, or petabytes from particular devices or environments. This information is crucial for planning future storage needs and scalability. The system monitor (collector) agent has issues with resource consumption. Even when not actively collecting data, the agent continues to consume significant CPU and memory resources, which can be particularly problematic for small business environments with limited resources. LogRhythm SIEM could improve by adding more default device support. While they have good default settings for devices such as Palo Alto firewalls, custom log sources often require extensive work. Increasing the number of supported devices with built-in policies and functionality would reduce the need for custom work. Competitive SIEM tools often provide more comprehensive coverage for various devices and vendors.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like LogRhythm's ease of use. The solution has improved compared to previous versions. It had many issues before, like integration, the console, creating reports, false positives, etc. The AI engine has made it stronger in the latest version."
"I find LogRhythm's log management capabilities to be beneficial."
"From a performance standpoint, I have no problems recommending LogRhythm because it allows me to get in under the hood and tweak some things."
"The security operation center is excellent."
"Straight away it was fairly evident that the LogRhythm application itself, and the agent roll-out, was straight out of the box."
"The most valuable part of the solution is being to view all of the logs whenever you want."
"Overall, it's had a very positive impact on our security posture."
"PCI compliance was our main driver for purchasing LogRhythm, but it turns out there was just a ton of other information that really came from having that appliance, other than just being PCI compliant and checking that box for us."
"The security level that they are maintaining with the pre-authentication keys is very good."
"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
 

Cons

"Scalability is not great, at the moment."
"The solution is likely not the best option for a smaller organization."
"The main area of improvement is that the client must be installed on the computer for all of the functions to work."
"Right now you have to apply what they call RIM policies, Registry Integrity Monitoring policies, one agent at a time. If you have thousands of endpoint agents, you have to touch each one of those one at a time."
"I would really love to be able to take some of the data and not have to export it to a CSV file, so I can pull it into Excel to turn it into some other kind of graph."
"We have a lot of issues with stability."
"Some of my customers have a very large need but refuse to go with LogRhythm SIEM due to its complexity and high resource intensity."
"The biggest thing that I think needs improvement is reporting in the Web Console."
"The solution could improve by providing better documentation for beginners to learn, such as videos or other tutorials."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Look for whatever will give you the most value. That's the main point. It is not one size fits all."
"We work with French-speaking African countries, and it costs more than the average SIEM solution. Also, the pricing isn't too flexible. AlienVault, Splunk, and IBM QRadar are more suitable for customers on a tight budget."
"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."
"It costs a great amount, but its pricing is competitive with some of the other vendors. For licensing and support, we pay about 20,000. There are no additional costs or anything like that."
"I would recommend that whatever sales quotes to them upfront, they will probably go up. Because they are probably going to outgrow that very quickly or once they start getting everything into it, they are going to have to move up anyway."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"I would rate the pricing 4 out of 5. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
"I think the tool is reasonably priced. There is a need to pay per year towards the licensing costs of the tool."
"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
