Correlates incidents, allows for quicker identification and helps prioritize investigations
The only challenge is, and that’s where we come into play, it’s a pretty high-tech platform. So, it’s difficult for small and medium-sized organizations to manage it on their own. It’s a very complex system. It requires a lot of expertise. All my guys who work on it have gone through certification from Stellar itself. There are three different certifications that you need to complete. Only then are you certified by Stellar to work on it. It’s a very complex platform. Not everyone can use it. A simple IT engineer or system admin won’t be able to handle it because it’s quite complex. You need to have an understanding of the industry, the subject, and the tool. So, just purchasing this tool or license and then using it on your own would be very difficult to configure and manage on a day-to-day basis. The pricing model is not suitable for small and medium companies, particularly small companies. The minimum pricing model they have is suitable for companies with more than one thousand users. So, if someone has 50 to 100 users, like typical small companies, it’s difficult for them because the cost involved is high. Stellar would charge you for those thousand users, but you do not need all those users. So what are they going to do? I guess Stellar does not want to target small companies directly and maybe relies on resellers and MSPs like us to sell it. So, that is something I would recommend changing. Otherwise, it’s a great tool, but because of the pricing model, small companies are unable to leverage the advantage of this beautiful tool. So, the pricing model should be suitable for small and medium businesses. The product currently has vulnerability monitoring and everything. But if they could also do something about vulnerability management and maybe patch management, that would be nice.

Offers a single dashboard with customizable features and a cost-effective pricing structure
Sumo Logic Security offers a single dashboard and customization, which are the most valuable features. Additionally, it has a cost-effective structure because it is based on data storage and the number of scans, rather than uploading data. This cost model impacts the customers positively by offering a more straightforward pricing structure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stellar Cyber Open XDR offers these functionalities at a more affordable price, making it easier for me to position it with price-sensitive customers."
"It can integrate with almost any cybersecurity tool available in the market."
"Support has been excellent. Sumo Logic's support staff is really good, both their account management staff and direct support."
"With this tool, we provide access to every developer team the ability to find errors, then they come to us and ask for specific help."
"The tool has key features like operability. It will alert the admins whenever a device is onboarded."
"Scalability has been good for our needs. We haven't run into any scaling issues in regards to size so far."
"We are able to diagnose problems before our customers."
"The most valuable features of Sumo Logic Security are the rules, use cases, and ease of use. Additionally, the integration is straightforward and good GUI."
"It gives us a bird's eye view of what's happening from our connection's point of view."
"We can ingest logs and make reports out of them. It is a good tool which can help us monitor any issues."
 

Cons

"I would rate the stability at about five to six. The platform requires some fine-tuning, especially when integrating data sources and creating connectors."
"Support is an issue because they have a limited number of resources."
"I don't recommend this product."
"We would like to have some type of predefined setup for the logs, making the setup easier by default."
"Sumo Logic Security is expensive, and its pricing could be improved."
"There needs to be improvement on imported data which can be used within Sumo Logic to do more advanced queries."
"The integration with multiple sources could be better."
"If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see."
"I would like to see improvement in the user experience when configuring things, ingesting logs, and creating ports."
"It took a bit of trial and error to get it set up correctly based on everything we had to do. In the end, we had to send everything over HTTP, which was sort of a stop-gap."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It’s a single license platform."
"The AWS Marketplace pricing is borderline. Every annual renewal, we always contemplate if we are getting what we think we could out of it or could we do it cheaper with some other product."
"I don't pay the bill. I've heard the AWS Marketplace pricing is high, but I like the value."
"The product is costly."
"The AWS Marketplace pricing is fairly reasonable for what it does. I wouldn't call it expensive, but I wouldn't call it cheap. It is pretty good."
"The pricing is good. It's not an issue for us."
"If we went to ELK Stack, which is open source, it would have been less costly, but it would have required more development from our side."
"Pricing has been cheaper than some of the competing tools, like Splunk."
"The only limit to the scalability of the product for us is how much we are willing to pay."
