A user-friendly solution that can be used to integrate the logs properly with different connectors
We use ArcSight Intelligence for some user behavioral analytics. The solution is used to integrate the logs properly with different Unix-based and Microsoft-based connectors. The solution gives us alerts on a single console to give us clear visibility of the total network and filter the unnecessary…

It's more user-friendly than other solutions we tried, but it could use more features like process mining and automation
We have an application running for our e-commerce site, and we use Splunk primarily to detect anomalous behavior like false orders and other bot-related threats. Splunk helps us analyze and eliminate threats using machine learning.  Splunk is more user-friendly than some competing solutions we…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We found the correlation engine to be very good. It takes logs from different types of devices and does the correlation in a good way."
"The ability to tailor an environment to suit our specific use cases is a major advantage of ArcSight compared to other logging servers such as Splunk."
"The platform helps us improve threat detection capabilities."
"The product has a valuable interface."
"The most valuable feature of ArcSight Intelligence is a single console where the entire dashboard gives all the connected details in a single place."
"This is a good security product."
"It's easily scalable."
"The most valuable feature is being able to take data and put it into other systems so that we could see the output, and to see where we need to apply our focus."
"It's straightforward in terms of configuration and troubleshooting and log management and monitoring as well. These are the edge points in addition to it being a modular solution where you can capitalize on your current licenses with extra licensing models, which can match the customer's business requirement and it can help the customer to design or to actually plan for their own roadmap."
"This intelligent user behavior analytics package is easy to configure and use while remaining feature filled."
"Splunk is more user-friendly than some competing solutions we tried."
"The solution is fast, flexible, and easy to use."
"It is a solution that helps test and measure customer satisfaction."
 

Cons

"The frequency of the updates that we are getting can be improved because the number and types of incidents that are happening at the global level are far more than what we are receiving. The frequency of updates feeds related to our rules should be increased. There should be more frequent information about the new rules that are coming and the global threats that are happening. There should be better options for dashboard creation. At present, the dashboards are good, but there is scope to make them better."
"ArcSight Intelligence is a bit slower, and its speed should be improved."
"ArcSight Intelligence's pricing needs improvement."
"We haven't found the product fully scalable."
"The dashboard is not user-friendly and is in black and white."
"The ability to do more complicated data investigation would be a welcome addition for pros, though the functionality now gives most people what they need."
"I would like improved downward integration with other tools such as McAfee and other GCP solutions."
"It could be easier to scale the solution if you are using it on-premise, not in the cloud."
"It would be good if the solution had an analytics tool that allowed us to analyze the data without writing specific queries."
"If the price was lowered and the setup process was less complex, I would consider rating it higher."
"We want to have an automated system for bot hunting that enables us to detect anomalies predictively based on historical data. It would be helpful if Splunk included process mining as an alternative option. We have a threat workflow, but it would be useful if we could supplement that with some process mining capabilities over time."
"They should work to add more built-in correlation searches and more use cases based on worldwide customer experiences. They need more ready-made use cases."
"Currently, a lot of network operations need improvement. We still need people to handle incidents. Our vision is to leverage status and convert it directly from the network devices. It would be ideal if we could take action using APIs and API code and remove manual processes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is average and not very high. Splunk might be a bit cheaper than this. Its licensing is on a monthly basis."
"The solution is expensive and only suitable for enterprise environments."
"They offer perpetual licenses for the product."
"ArcSight Intelligence is an expensive solution."
"It is an expensive platform."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
"I hope we can increase the free license to be more than 5 gig a day. This would help people who want to introduce a POC or a demo license for the solution."
"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
"Pricing varies based on the packages you choose and the volume of your usage."
"My biggest complaint is the way they do pricing... You can never know the pricing for next year. Every single time you adjust to something new, the price goes up. It's impossible to truly budget for it. It goes up constantly."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."

Cybereason vs. Interset vs. SQRRL
Capture DB - they all use NoSQL db and hence solve the ad hoc query and 'go back in time' problem with current best of breed SIEM and DLP solutions that rely on real time analysis of incoming logs (and don't store them). This means deeper and quicker iterative threat analysis and assessment…
