It integrates seamlessly with AWS cloud-native services
I worked with Splunk, Curator, ArcSight, and some legacy solutions that no longer exist. They became obsolete or transitioned to a different product. Cost-effectiveness was one reason we switched. We had to decide whether to spend $500,000 on a commercial product or rely on our skills to deploy an open-source solution. The big difference between Wazuh and other solutions is maturity and customization. Wazuh's scalability and out-of-the-box functionality are slightly lagging behind, but Wazuh has improved a lot since the first time we saw it. Others have more search capabilities, whereas Wazuh depends on Elasticsearch. Searching is a bit slower in Wazuh.
