Featured Reviews

Ahmed Hawary - PeerSpot reviewer
A straightforward setup for technical users and an overall good product
The packet analyzer needs improvement. If the customer has anything on the packet, if there's a problem or any viruses on the packet, the user needs to analyze the packets to know what he used and what is needed in the network. It would be good if the solution had a dedicated firewall like Cisco Firepower.
Stephen-Armstrong - PeerSpot reviewer
The SIEM provides a user-friendly UI experience
When events come into the system, the dashboard categorizes them by the highest risk score, not when they appear on the system. When you've got multiple ongoing incidents you can only see the highest risk score at the top of the list rather than the most recent detection. Exabeam's reporting dashboard could have included a filtering option to filter by the most recent detection.

Cons

"I would like to see improvements made to the dashboard, where you can get the information with a simple click."

"Exabeam should be a bit faster, especially in loading and vulnerability scanning."
"Exabeam needs to improve its adaptive nature towards rules and its capability to understand the entire client environment faster."

"The only problem is that the UI is not very impressive."

"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
