Featured Reviews

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.
JensWolf - PeerSpot reviewer
A solution that offers easy setup and deployment phases, along with great scalability and stability
I rate the initial setup a ten out of ten. The solution's initial setup was very straightforward. The solution is deployed on an on-premises and cloud model. The cloud services are provided by Rapid7. The solution can be deployed in half a day or four hours in a small environment. I was the only person involved in the product's deployment phase.
