An easy-to-use solution that could improve it’s website-scouring capabilities
The solution is easy to use The solution could improve how it scours each website. We have used the solution for more than a year. The stability is very good, so I rate the solution’s stability an eight out of ten. I rate the scalability a seven out of ten. Our clients are mostly medium-sized…

Has excellent scalability when deployed on Azure
We primarily use Wazuh for internal security monitoring to ensure the safety of our organization's internal systems. We have two specific requirements: first, we use it to monitor our internal operations, which is essential for general security purposes. Second, we rely on Wazuh to manage the…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to use."
"Its cost-effectiveness is the most valuable aspect."
"Wazuh is free and easy to use. It is also adjustable, and we can use it on the cloud and on-premises."
"The configuration assessment and Pile integrity monitoring features are decent."
"The most valuable feature of Wazuh is the ELK for doing an investigation."
"The most valuable features are the modules and metrics."
"It allows you to aggregate all your logs in one place and provides a unified view to monitor your security environment."
"It offers built-in modules for file integrity and vulnerability management."
"The solution is easy to maintain."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve how it scours each website."
"One area where Wazuh could use some improvement is in its reporting mechanism, especially for high-level management like CSOs and CEOs."
"I want more support for regional compliance standards to serve my ANZ region customers better."
"Some features, like alerting, are complex with Wazuh."
"Integration with Vyara could be better."
"Wazuh should come up with more in-built rules and integrations for the cloud."
"The biggest part that's missing is threat intelligence. It isn't inbuilt, and if a sudden incident occurs, we don't get that feedback inside the SIEM tool. That's a big gap, I see. It would be better if we could get the threat intelligence feeds integrated with the SIEM tools. That would help us push value solutions to the clients in a big way."
"The only challenge we faced with Wazuh was the lack of direct support."
"While it is scalable, it can suffer from reduced latencies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the solution’s pricing a six or seven out of ten.."
"My client uses the open-source version of Wazuh."
"It is a free-of-cost solution."
"When I contacted customer care, they mentioned bundling options, that I found to be overall affordable."
"Wazuh is open-source, but you must consider the total cost of ownership. It may be free to acquire, but you spend a lot of time and effort supporting the product and getting it to a point where it's useful."
"Wazuh is an open-source tool."
"Wazuh is totally free and open source. There are no licensing costs, only support costs if you need them."
"Wazuh is an open-source tool, which means it is freely available for use."
"Wazuh is a cheaply priced product."
