Efficiently monitoring and detecting suspicious activities
One valuable feature of ConnectWise Fortify is the ability to add other teams and receive notifications when customers make changes or remove multi-factor authentication in Microsoft or SAP environments. For instance, once we were connecting different parts in China, and we had to reserve resources for the blue source of the login of task no v. ConnectWise Fortify successfully mitigated the issue and monitored any suspicious activity in the Microsoft environment. Despite the inconvenience, the Microsoft environment is still active and susceptible to cyber threats. We do a lot of research and utilize ConnectWise Fortify to restart and restore the system. It's essential to have a solution like ConnectWise Fortify to protect against cyber threats.

Offers a single dashboard with customizable features and a cost-effective pricing structure
Sumo Logic Security offers a single dashboard and customization, which are the most valuable features. Additionally, it has a cost-effective structure because it is based on data storage and the number of scans, rather than uploading data. This cost model impacts the customers positively by offering a more straightforward pricing structure.

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

Pros

"One valuable feature of ConnectWise Fortify is the ability to add other teams and receive notifications when customers make changes or remove multi-factor authentication in Microsoft or SAP environments."
"We have found the solution has great functionality and it is easy to use."
"We have used it many times to find a root cause of a live issue, then fix the problem in the applications."
"With this tool, we provide access to every developer team the ability to find errors, then they come to us and ask for specific help."
"We use it to ingest Windows domain controller logs. We use this to monitor if anyone is placed in particular administration groups that potentially shouldn't be. It helps us keep track of people."
"We are able to diagnose problems before our customers."
"Support has been excellent. Sumo Logic's support staff is really good, both their account management staff and direct support."
"The tool has key features like operability. It will alert the admins whenever a device is onboarded."
"The solution is quite stable."
"Scalability has been good for our needs. We haven't run into any scaling issues in regards to size so far."
 

Cons

"The manage portion of the solution is complicated and should be simplified by having different versions to meet the needs of different size companies."
"ConnectWise Fortify could work on covering more areas, like phishing messages, which have become more complicated to detect."
"In my opinion, this solution has a steep learning curve and requires practice if users to be able to use this tool very efficiently."
"The API integration in Sumo Logic Security could improve. There are delayed connections or they stop and then automatically start. Having a seamless log collection would be beneficial."
"The dashboard has room for improvement, because sometimes it is a difficult to create a specific dashboard or query. This would be a nice place to correct problems."
"The solution should improve its UI."
"There are some API gaps that are missing."
"The initial setup is the most stressful, like learning how to use it."
"If you want to up your subscription through the AWS Marketplace, it can be difficult. You can't just go back to the AWS Marketplace, and say, "I want a bigger one now." You have to contact the sales team, then they do it on the back-end. This could definitely be improved."
"We would like the ability to drill down into a dashboard and get into deeper levels."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"Purchasing Sumo Logic through the AWS Marketplace was a simple step."
"The license pricing model is based on the events that are processed through the solution."
"The AWS Marketplace pricing is fairly reasonable for what it does. I wouldn't call it expensive, but I wouldn't call it cheap. It is pretty good."
"Pricing has been cheaper than some of the competing tools, like Splunk."
"Storing logs in Sumo Logic Security is charged GB-wise, which is a little higher than other products."
"The only limit to the scalability of the product for us is how much we are willing to pay."
"The pricing is good. It's not an issue for us."
"Purchasing the solution through the AWS Marketplace is very easy."
