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

"As far as technical support, professional support, and overall organizational support, LogRhythm has probably been one of the best companies that I have worked with since I have been in technology."
"With LogRhythm, our SIEM solution offers more of a rounded perspective, especially from security, making sure they are not only operational, but they're operational in a security conscious manner."
"It has allowed us to dive deeper into our network and figure out what is going on by parsing logs properly and being able to reduce the time it takes to work cases down from seven days to approximately two days."
"The AI Engine can take an event and correlate it into something else giving us meaningful context regarding what is going on. We integrated it in with our ticketing system, so if an alarm fires, it raises a ticket in our system."
"For the operations and monitoring pieces, going from what we had before to it being the central component for us, it has really helped us become more mature in those areas."
"The dashboards and the AI Engine."
"The visibility that it gives us into all of our data at once."
"The most useful feature that I've found so far is the search function. I like all the different ways you're able to search through metadata and the different ways you're able to correlate or search through logs to find out what's going on."
"We have not encountered any issues with stability."
"​I would rate the technical support very well as they are knowledgeable and quick to respond​."
 

Cons

"Scalability has been a little tougher for us."
"In terms of the product, what really needs to improve are the metrics that you can get from it."
"Easier creation of rules and parsing, and more user-friendly."
"Out of 10, I would give it an eight. We upgraded our firewall and that broke our parsing rules and it took a while to get that all fixed, but other than that it's been great."
"Sometimes the error-logging is not altogether helpful. There have been many times where I've been disappointed, where I'll ramp an agent up to Verbose and it will say, "LogRhythm critical error, the agent won't bind to a NIC," or the like, and I end up with no really actionable or identifiable information coming in, even though I've ramped up the logging level."
"We don't get much use out of this product because people around here consider it to be unreliable, and it's hard to do searches."
"One of the challenges of the SIEM for the LogRhythm 7 platform is the amount of time it takes to bring new log sources into the MDI."
"We have gone through a few versions which has caused a lot of instability. We have logged a lot of hours with professional services."
"​It was very complex. There was poor native correlation. ​"
"​It needs to have better reporting. ​"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"NextGen SIEM's pricing is moderate."
"The solution has provided us with consistency and increased staff productivity through orchestrated automated work flows by at least 20 percent."
"The pricing is very reasonable and accessible compared to other products in the market but I am not very sure about the exact licensing cost per year for our company."
"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."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"The nice thing about LogRhythm is you can either use the agents, getting a certain number of agents with your license depending on how you want to go, and those agents do a lot of cool things, or you can use CIS Log host, then you have like an unlimited number of them."
"We have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. As it comes out new features and new releases, the window is becoming a lot narrower because you can pivot a lot more with the data. Therefore, the new features and enhancements are reducing that."
"Look for whatever will give you the most value. That's the main point. It is not one size fits all."
"Do a PoC. Make it detailed so it can help later."
