Great features, good support, and lots of functionality
I'm an end-user. We use the solution on multiple clouds. I'd advise users to validate which product and metrics will help them the most. The solution has multiple functionalities. Don't go in blindly. Know what you want to get out of the product. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten based on the scalability potential.
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

"They have multiple great features."
"Integrates with various open-source and paid products, allowing for flexibility in customization based on use cases."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"I like the cloud-native infrastructure and that it's free. We didn't have to pay anything, and it has the capabilities of many premium solutions in the market. We could integrate all of our services and infrastructure in the cloud with Wazuh. From an integration point of view, Wazuh is pretty good. I had a good experience with this platform."
"We found the MITRE framework mapping and the agent enrollment service to be the most valuable features of Wazuh."
"The main thing I like about it is that it has an EDR."
"Wazuh is free and easy to use. It is also adjustable, and we can use it on the cloud and on-premises."
"Wazuh has very flexible and robust features."
"Wazuh's best features are syscheck, its ability to immediately resolve vulnerabilities, and that it's open source."
 

Cons

"We end up facing a lot of issues after upgrades."
"Wazuh could improve the detection, it is not detecting all of the attacks. Additionally, it is lacking features compared to other solutions."
"The only challenge we faced with Wazuh was the lack of direct support."
"Adding the flexibility to integrate various plug-ins or modules into its core system would enhance functionality."
"Wazuh currently fails to provide its users with AI and ML."
"The biggest part that's missing is threat intelligence. It isn't inbuilt, and if a sudden incident occurs, we don't get that feedback inside the SIEM tool. That's a big gap, I see. It would be better if we could get the threat intelligence feeds integrated with the SIEM tools. That would help us push value solutions to the clients in a big way."
"So far, the recent updates have addressed most challenges we previously faced."
"One area where Wazuh could use some improvement is in its reporting mechanism, especially for high-level management like CSOs and CEOs."
"I want more support for regional compliance standards to serve my ANZ region customers better."
