Has supported real-time event detection and reporting accuracy while database integration has required extra effort
Sometimes it may be difficult to incorporate new additional databases in NetMon, and we faced some challenges at that time. However, currently, it is not giving many challenges.It is difficult to integrate NetMon with other databases. We can customize NetMon's monitoring views, but it is done by the team who handles it, as it is outsourced.

Centralized environment supports big data while facing integration challenges
The customization in Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is more difficult compared to other solutions. At the operation level, we are not facing many challenges with automating things using Securonix Next-Gen SIEM, but at the admin level, we have many challenges where log parsing is causing issues and compatibility is not present. The primary technology challenge we have is not at the security tools level. For example, firewall Cisco and others are capable. However, specific to product, for SAP, we are using certain products, and developing custom connectors for each product, especially the internal applications, is difficult, and Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is not up to the mark.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"We are using NetMon's real-time traffic analysis regularly with a team of four members who effectively monitor all alerts and events, which has helped them identify whether there could be a severe incident."
"Compared to many other products in the market, I think LogRhythm has the highest cost to performance ratio in terms of its value."
"In general, this is a good product."
"The analytics feature is the most valuable feature."
"We were sold on the product based on the fairly narrow use cases that the sales reps gave us, and what we're seeing during our usage is that we can get there, and we're very excited about the potential."
"Visibility is a valuable feature, the ability to see even if the traffic is not going into the firewall"
"But just having it there, it's incredibly smart, incredibly easy to use, and the breadth of information we get off it is really good for investigations for us."
"We ended up moving our clients over to QRadar as this solution did not end up working for either of them."
"With UEBA being a relatively new space when we looked at it close to two years ago, we were concerned about how well it worked and whether they were truly behavioral-based rules or if that was just marketing terminology for the "latest greatest system," but it exceeds what our initial expectations were for being able to detect different cyber threats."
"What I like most is that the threat models and risk scoring are very accurate and very helpful to the analysts on my team. They help highlight the most important things for them to look at."
"One of the valuable features of Securonix is the auto-incident creation, which was not available two or three years ago."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is their analytics platform where they have the open security data-link, which they introduced, and this is typically different from the other vendors."
"One of the most valuable features it has is the thread chaining. One of the common issues that we always had was the number of anomalies that we used to get and the number of alerts that we used to get. But with this approach of thread chaining, we've found the false-positive rate has decreased very significantly. That was something that we never could have achieved before."
"We can customize our use cases with the tools provided by Securonix. It is an excellent tool that can ingest data in different ways and is very flexible."
"The software includes user behavior interactions, dashboards, and training capabilities."
 

Cons

"The main concern is that LogRhythm has not improved NetMon but instead introduced a separate product, which many customers, including us, would prefer to be integrated into a single platform for easier management."
"Previously, it was typically every Monday that I was coming in - it would die over the weekend - and I would spend a day cleaning up databases."
"Our customers would always like to see additional features."
"LogRhythm's support team isn't responsive enough - it's common to wait a day or two for someone to deal with a case."
"Some of the automated tasks we can perform on QRadar cannot be performed on LogRhythm because the solution has limitations."
"The training for this product is not very good and needs to be improved."
"Their technical support isn't so great."
"Sometimes it may be difficult to incorporate new additional databases in NetMon, and we faced some challenges at that time."
"The analytics-driven approach for finding sophisticated threats and reducing false positives is positive and good, but the platform requires a more dynamic concept. Everything is a bit static."
"In terms of improvements, SIEM could have better integration with other technologies. Additionally, it might benefit from integration with other sources, such as firewalls."
"We thought they were going to be a great product, however, they're actually not great at all as an MSP."
"Other than issues with the training, there have been issues with the encryption. There have also been issues with some of the reporting, minor glitches that they have fixed as they've gone along."
"Six months ago, if someone asked me about the support, I would say, "Not good.""
"Securonix Next-Gen SIEM's deployment is complex and you need a team to do it."
"As far as what can be improved, again it is the pricing."
"A helpful feature would be an event export. A way to create more substantial summary reports would be nice."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I don't have visibility into the pricing of LogRhythm NetMon as it's handled through our commercial partnerships."
"LogRhythm's licensing part is something that depends on the license you want since they offer it on a perpetual and subscription basis."
"Pricing is okay. There were some competitors that were extremely expensive and there were some which were really inexpensive but LogRhythm stayed in the middle of them."
"The product is expensive for smaller companies."
"NetMon's licensing costs about $85k per year, with some extra costs for support."
"The price of this solution is too high, so it should be made more practical and more valuable for the customer."
"I had heard that it was much cheaper than Splunk and some of the other tools, and they gave us a nice package with support. They accommodated the number of users and support very well."
"A good thing about Securonix is that they don't charge by volume of data or number of devices... They charge by the number of employees, which is a much more predictable number for me, versus data. Our costs are in the $100,000 range over a three-year subscription."
"We have an annual license. We pay $200,000 for the base licensing and we pay another $50,000 for the software as a service."
"The pricing is fine compared to the market but I think that at some point the competitors will catch up on price."
"The solution's price is double the competitors."
"Compared to other known brands in the industry, the overall cost of the licenses is a bit higher than what customers expect."
"Its price is fine. We found it to be cheaper than LogRhythm, Exabeam, Splunk, as well as Elastic Security. A few months ago, when we were comparing Securonix with Elastic Security, we found Securonix to be cheaper than Elasticsearch. We were pretty surprised that Elastic Security is more expensive than Securonix because Elasticsearch is just starting, and it cannot compete with Securonix at this time. So, the pricing of Securonix is pretty good for now."
"We went in on a three-year agreement which has an annual licensing fee, based upon the number of people that we're monitoring. There have not been any additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
