Featured Reviews

Sheikh Abu Ayub Azad - PeerSpot reviewer
Great at managing cyber incidents; the technical support could be improved
The initial setup is easy, partly because LogRhythm is primarily based on the Windows platform. It's good to have two engineers for deployment but it can be done with one. It's more about the knowledge. Deployment is typically done in two or three different phases. It usually takes up to three full months to get good deployment. There's the initial onboarding of all the log sources, then collecting data in the data lake, followed a couple of weeks later with some minor tuning before the final tuneup.
Ebenezer Okoh - PeerSpot reviewer
Innovative platform enables proactive threat hunting and endpoint monitoring
I have not seen Wazuh moving in the direction of AI-driven threat detection projects myself, but since the market is moving that way, I wouldn't be surprised if they implemented it soon. My plans to increase the usage of Wazuh or switch to another tool depend on what my boss decides. We don't refer to any community support specifically, as we rely on other platforms such as GitHub or Discord, depending on the application. I recommend that as more companies come on board with Wazuh, it will motivate those who contribute to it, but I am also cautious that as it gains attention, a large company might buy it and change its course of business. Overall, I rate Wazuh a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I like most about LogRhythm UEBA is that it allows you to identify and analyze end-user behaviors and suspicious activities within the systems."
"The solution's most valuable features are the graphical user interface and the reporting."
"The solution is useful for privilege accounts and super admin accounts. It is beneficial from a security perspective. The tool uses machine learning rather than threshold-based alerts. For instance, it can detect unusual user logins, such as a user logging in from a new browser or location."
"Good capability pinpointing specific cyber incidents."
"LogRhythm UEBA’s best feature is the dashboard. It provides several graphs, charts, and event logs."
"The most valuable features are file activity monitoring and registry activity monitoring."
"The tool's most valuable feature is server threat hunting."
"I typically use the product for reducing cyber risk, and I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"The MITRE ATT&CK correlation is most valuable."
"Its cost-effectiveness is the most valuable aspect."
"It allows you to aggregate all your logs in one place and provides a unified view to monitor your security environment."
"Wazuh's most valuable features include file monitoring and compliance reporting, which do not require excessive costs."
"The product’s interface is intuitive."
"Wazuh's most valuable features include file monitoring and compliance reporting, which do not require excessive costs."
"Wazuh's best features are syscheck, its ability to immediately resolve vulnerabilities, and that it's open source."
"Wazuh's most beneficial features for our security needs are flexibility, built-in rules, integration capabilities, and documentation."
 

Cons

"In general, if something needs to be improved in the algorithm, it would be the dashboards."
"The product should improve its dashboards. Splunk has neat dashboards. Additionally, we would like to enhance the use cases provided by LogRhythm as its use case library is not as extensive as other tools. Its machine-learning capabilities need to improve when compared to other solutions. It lacks risk quantification in a single, transparent view for individuals such as CSOs."
"LogRhythm UEBA's data aggregation needs to be improved. Open-source users do not have much documentation available. Documentation is available only for enterprise users."
"The product could be user-friendly for someone who doesn’t have any prior experience working with it."
"The on-premises LogRhythm is not very scalable. When considering packets per second or the MPS needed for additional logs such as web application logs, scalability is usually found in cloud products."
"The UI could be improved a little bit."
"The cloud version is lacking and not up to par."
"The search feature needs to be improved."
"The technical support can be improved. Wazuh has some bugs that need to be fixed. It would be good if we can have automation with respect to incidence responses."
"Wazuh requires substantial maintenance. The indexer frequently times out, requiring system restarts. When it comes to errors, debugging takes considerable time."
"Wazuh needs more security and features, particularly visualization features and a health monitor."
"Some features, like alerting, are complex with Wazuh."
"Integration with Vyara could be better."
"When I face a challenge, I prefer not to spend too much time on it and may move to another solution that will give us the results."
"I have yet to find the same capability in Wazuh to get logs from different sources into the system"
"The computing resources are consuming and do not make sense."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is quite a budget-friendly product."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. It's not expensive compared to its competitors."
"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten. However, the cloud version is expensive. You need to hire professional services for deployment and migrations, which can be expensive."
"As LogRhythm UEBA is pretty expensive, I'd give its pricing a seven out of ten."
"The pricing is nice when compared to other products in the industry."
"LogRhythm UEBA's pricing is affordable for small and medium businesses."
"It is an open-source product."
"The product is cheaper compared to other tools."
"The product price is neither too high nor too low."
"Wazuh is open-source, so I think it's an option for a small organization that cannot go for enterprise-grade solutions like Splunk."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"Wazuh is a cheaply priced product."
"Wazuh is an open-source tool."
"Wazuh is open-source, therefore it is free. You can purchase support for $1,000 a year."
