Provides good anomaly detection and connectivity reporting
I use Elastic Security to aggregate all logs from different devices in one place. It works pretty well and provides one overview of everything The solution's most valuable features are anomaly detection and connectivity reporting. Elastic Security also has many automation capabilities, which can…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Elastic Security is very easy to adapt."
"The most valuable feature of Elastic Security is that you can install agents, and they are not separately licensed."
"The solution has a good community surrounding it for lots of helpful documentation for troubleshooting purposes."
"The scalability is good. It can be scaled easily in the production environment."
"ELK Logstash is easy and fast, at least for the initial setup with the out of box uses."
"Elastic Security makes data communication easier."
"The most valuable features are the speed, detail, and visualization. It has the latest standards."
"Just the ability to do a lot more than just up-down is nice, which a lot of people take for granted."
"They have multiple great features."
 

Cons

"The solution could offer better reporting features."
"With Elastic, you have to build the use cases for the specific requirement. Other products have a simple integration and more use cases to integrate out-of-the-box solutions for SIEM."
"There should be a simulation environment to check whether my Elastic implementation is functioning perfectly fine. Other solutions have their own Android and iOS applications that I can install on my mobile so that I am continuously connected to the SIEM."
"The solution does not have a UI and this is one of the reasons we are looking for another solution."
"I want to find an automatic security system in the tool, like a SOAR solution. I am looking forward to seeing a SOAR system in the tool."
"We had issues with scalability. Logstash was not scaling and aggregation was getting delayed. We moved to Fluentd making our stack from ELK to EFK."
"An area for improvement in Elastic Security is the pricing. It could be better. Right now, when you increase the volume of logs to be collected, the price also increases a lot."
"In terms of what could be improved with Elastic, in some use cases, especially on the advanced level, they are not ready made, so you'll have to write some scripts."
"We end up facing a lot of issues after upgrades."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing is flexible and comes at unit cost. You don't have to pay for everything."
"The licensing cost of Elastic Security is based on the daily ingestion rate. I can't recall the exact figure, but for 10GB of log action daily, it would cost around $20,000."
"The pricing is in the middle. I think it is not an expensive experience if we compare it with big names, for example, QRadar, and also Oxide. I think Elastic Security is quite cheap. I would rate the pricing of this solution a five out of ten."
"I find it better than Splunk in terms of cost-effectiveness. For cost-effectiveness, I would rate it a nine out of 10."
"The solution is not expensive and costs around ten dollars a month."
"We are using the free, open-source version of this solution."
"The product offers an amazing pricing structure. Price-wise, the product is very competitive."
"The price is reasonable. It probably costs the same as ArcSight and LogRhythm SIEM. FortiSIEM might cost less than Elastic Security. There are no hidden or additional costs."
