Comprehensive coverage, no vendor lock-in, and best customer relationship

Before Anvilogic, we had no visibility into our detection coverage. The ability to break it down by industry verticals, such as attackers and adversaries, is valuable. Detection insights help us easily identify the most noisy ones, the effective ones, and what needs to be fixed to move the noisy ones to effective ones. The hunting capabilities are very good. The AI components and hunting packages give us quick insights into what needs to be looked at. The partnership has been very good. Their professional services and customer relationship have been very good. Our features and bugs have been fixed on time without a lot of follow-up, and their support has been excellent. Finally, there is a feature within Anvilogic that provides the threat landscape or our effectiveness towards the threat landscape on an ongoing basis. That is another feature that we liked.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the best things about Anvilogic is the partnership, their knowledge, the depth of technical understanding, and the speed at which they respond."

"Before Anvilogic, we had no visibility into our detection coverage. The ability to break it down by industry verticals, such as attackers and adversaries, is valuable."

"The AlienVault solution has enabled us to create a SOC on a budget with smaller than usual staff requirements, offering a wider range of solutions for our customers."

"The IDS and the threat intelligence are very useful. They are very intuitive and data-rich."

"The dashboards are very descriptive and contain just the right amount of information. The activity alarms and events contain a plethora of data that is very descriptive and useful."

"The other big selling feature for us was its integration capabilities with all the other security-based products."

"The setup is very easy and straightforward."

"The new cloud-based panel is excellent both for client review as well as for our SOC to review and respond to threats. It is much easier to configure and use than the previous solution from AlienVault."

"Asset discovery and vulnerability scanner are good features. The integration between this solution and OTX, which is an AlienVault platform for Open Threat Exchange, is also a valuable feature. It is also quick and easy to deploy, so you can quickly engage with a customer's environment."

"It brought our logs into one place for review and set up alarms based on changes we were missing due to lack of having one place for everything to go."

More USM Anywhere pros

Cons

"The pricing is slightly edging towards being a bit much for smaller organizations."

"The hunting insight needs integrable capability with different platforms to gather all of that insight and show it on a single canvas on Anvilogic. That is the only feature that could improve the way we do operations."

"The AT&T AlienVault USM is okay, but the relational database is not very good for large amounts of data. For example, many logs cannot be processed. It has been very slow for the queries and some data which are large, it is not very good in this case."

"Support can be slow at times, but the quality is high. Posted knowledge base articles could use improvement."

"The only complex area of the setup was writing the custom scripts."

"There is room for improvement in Log parsing."

"This solution could be easier to use."

"I've been using it just for my own personal upskilling in terms of how the product works. At the moment, it is pretty straightforward and simple, and it is working how it is supposed to. The feedback would come once it is deployed to customer sites. They'll be using it on a more frequent basis, and that's when the feedback would come in terms of the areas in which they're facing issues or are looking for simplicity."

"There are scalability issues due to a 60 TB limit, which restricts its use for large customers like banks."

"The vulnerability scanning feature is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings and needs to improve. The tool has vulnerability scanning, but it is not that efficient."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Anvilogic's pricing has been highly competitive."

"We were an early adopter, so the pricing was definitely good. Because they do not completely replace a SIEM, their pricing is slowly edging towards being a little too much for a smaller organization like ours. It is almost on the border."

"I don't think the product's pricing is a good value because they try to raise the price 50 percent every year... AlienVault needs to understand that not all customers are huge enterprises... Their sales team is way too aggressive. The price they advertise is not always the price you get."

"Do the one month trial and try to work out the kinks during it, as it has free support and service hours."

"We checked out several competitors. For what it can do and the cost, it was the best option!"

"The price of this solution is reasonable, which is one of the reasons why we selected it over other solutions."

"The ROI is quite good."

"They are a little more expensive than Microsoft."

"It is a product that is priced in a medium range, making it neither a cheap nor a costly product."

"The price point is good."
