Featured Reviews

Pravir KumarSinha - PeerSpot reviewer
Has essential threat detection capabilities, but the features for intelligence need enhancement
We integrated this tool with our security infrastructure. We installed it on a Linux server, where we have a Logger and ESM installed. With the Linux server as the hub, we manage all the configurations and rules, including those for email triggers. The logs are routed through a connector to the Logger, allowing us to monitor our infrastructure effectively. The platform helps us improve threat detection capabilities. I recommend it to others and rate it a seven out of ten.
Daniel Durian - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps to monitor and detect cyberattacks
The tool's effectiveness depends on how you define your log sources. To build visibility of incoming and outgoing traffic, you need logs from perimeter defense, firewalls, web application firewalls, and endpoint protection. With good traffic visibility, incident response time is really quick. Trellix ESM provides situation awareness. On the dashboard, I can see outbound and inbound communications to known threat hosts, IPS/IDS activity, and threat intelligence of the perimeter defense in the firewall. This information helps preempt attacks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"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 support I have received from the vendor has been great."
"It has performed well and delivered the results that I have been looking for."
"It is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is that if the scanning does find something, it quarantines it. Then you can decide what you are going to do with it."
"Trellix ESM utilizes fewer human resources and improves security and visibility."
"We are now able to completely monitor our environment so we can review what is there, which is a big win for us."
"It can be easily deployed with the other solutions."
"This solution integrates easily and very well with other technologies."
 

Cons

"We haven't found the product fully scalable."
"ArcSight Intelligence's pricing needs improvement."
"The dashboard is not user-friendly and is in black and white."
"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."
"I would like to see good analytics in future releases."
"Product currently requires Flash."
"The product’s alert response feature needs improvement. It could be more flexible and secure."
"Product-wise, adding accounts on a single data source by batch would be a really great help."
"There are some banking and transactional cases that are local, South America transactions. I would like to see them add features that can be used locally, to make those transactions more reliable."
"There's no software support from McAfee."
"There should be support for multitenancy in the product."
"The initial setup is difficult and could improve."
 

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."
"It is an expensive platform."
"ArcSight Intelligence is an expensive solution."
"The solution is expensive and only suitable for enterprise environments."
"They offer perpetual licenses for the product."
"The price of McAfee ESM is higher than some of the other solutions. There are additional features that can be added at an additional fee."
"The cost is dependent on the customer's environment and requirements."
"The pricing is good, and they are competitive compared to providers such as RSA and IBM QRadar."
"The cost is all included. The finance department handles the financial part, and we mostly don't get involved in it."
"When compared to IBM Security QRadar and other similar platforms, the pricing of McAfee ESM is reasonable and comparatively less expensive."
"The licensing cost is based on EPS."
"The price is good. It's moderate. We follow a pay-as-you-go model. There are different models available, and they can also be monthly. You can choose monthly or yearly. It's very flexible. If our existing customers exceed the current plan, you can just call McAfee and get it extended."
"Regarding pricing, Trellix ESM is not that expensive. It's less than half the cost of IBM QRadar."
