Allows for monitoring logs according to industry standards within ESM but has a total capacity capped at 12 TB, limiting real-time data retention periods
The first limitation is with the ArcSight Data Storage Manager (ADSM). ArcSight's total capacity is currently capped at 12 TB. This becomes an issue if a customer needs a longer real-time data retention period, such as exceeding 90 days or reaching a year or even ten months. Increasing the disk space beyond 12 TB is not currently possible. So, increasing the storage capacity is one area for improvement. Additionally, the real-time data retention is limited due to the 12 TB restriction. Depending on the Events Per Second (EPS) you receive, you might only be able to retain data for seven to ten days. Overall, the 12 TB limit is the main issue we face in terms of maximizing real-time data storage. Moreover, there are a few improvements I would like to see in future releases. My main suggestion for ArcSight is to simplify the deployment process. Currently, the installation process is quite complex. There are various components involved, including transformations, multiple installations, and containerization for various components. Ideally, I'd recommend that ArcSight allow the entire installation, including the ESM and database, to be completed within a single unified setup process for a streamlined experience. Additionally, having readily available and well-organized documentation for the step-by-step installation process would be incredibly helpful. I would also like to see better support.

Situational awareness is a must but the biggest issue, is that it seems to deliberately use the lousiest compression.
Customer Service: On a scale of 1-5, 0. They say the right things but don't deliver when it counts. I've given numerous suggestions for improving the product but they've dismissed every single one. Technical Support: On a scale of 1-5, 0. Lower-level support is only interested in closing tickets as quickly as possible, not in fixing the issue. If you can get a senior-level engineer they're polite and patient but limited by the rest of the organization. Many of their fixes look like the kind of thing I set up at 2am to get through an issue to buy some time until we can fix it right during normal business hours. The difference is they never come back and fix it right.

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing model is expensive compared to open-source alternatives."
"The product licenses are inexpensive."
"We have a license to use this solution. The price of ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager is expensive."
"ArcSight ESM is an affordable solution, it cost approximately $200,000 for three years. This price was at a substantial discount."
"Pricing is good, I'd rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with ten being low price. It's better than Splunk and IBM QRadar because their pricing is based on EPS."
"ArcSight is pretty expensive compared with its competitors. I believe that is fine as it provides value."
"The licensing cost is affordable if you get an enterprise license. The licensing is based on EPS, so you can probably provide a package of license for multiple ESMs with their correlational end fees. It is cost-effective."
"ArcSight can be a little bit expensive because of the area that we work in and the cost. Licensing is mostly on a yearly basis, not monthly."
