The SIEM provides a user-friendly UI experience
I use Exabeam for it's end-to-end detection and it's user event behavioural Analytics, i find it a useful SIEM for investigating unusual behaviour by clicking into an incident from the main dashboard. From here we can go into the details of the incident, which are shown by the individual risk…

The visibility and analytics from Securonix SIEM have become indispensable in identifying and stopping potential threats before they escalate.
We use Securonix Next-Gen SIEM primarily for managed SOC, focusing on threat detection, baselining, and ensuring the maturity of our SOC security operations.  It is integrated with threat intelligence and utilizes frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and the Cyber Kill Chain.  The solution helps in threat…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
"The solution's initial setup process is easy."
"Exabeam is very easy to use, with a straightforward platform and workflow, unlike other tools that require more expertise."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
"The UI was very clean."
"I have customers that like the EUBA functionality of it. The solution has the ability to build a session, basically. It pulls a lot of information together, for example, everything a user does in a specific timeframe. It's quite helpful."
"The ThreatHunter in Advanced Analytics is the most valuable. It helps analyze compromised assets and provides analysis for any entity within my client's environment."
"It's a very user-friendly product and it's a very comprehensive technology."
"The detection of threats and reduction of false positive alarms as compared to other solutions are valuable features. It has improved threat detection response and reduced a lot of noise from false positives as compared to our previous SIEM solutions."
"When we were looking for products for our security monitoring needs, our biggest requirement was that we wanted something based on machine-learning and analytics. If you go with rules, it can raise a lot of noise. Securonix, with its UEBA capability, had the best analytics use-cases."
"The most valuable feature is that it works on user behavior and event rarities."
"We can select the resource group name or functionality directly of which type of security tool logs we want. We don't need to write the query for that; we just have to select."
"There aren't any positive aspects of the solution. It was a complete failure. There are no redeeming features."
"The scalability is one of the remarkable qualities of this product, which makes it very effective, especially when we are dealing with substantial data volumes in the cloud."
"Risk scoring was nice. We could exactly see which user had the highest risk score, and then we could pick it up and work on it."
"SNYPR has a bundle of features. It has the UEBA feature that tells you about the behavior of a person or entity. In the tool itself, there is an incident management feature, which is definitely valuable."
 

Cons

"One area that needs improvement is interacting with Exabeam's API. There was a headache regarding the API; the documentation wasn't clear, and the syntax wasn't very precise."
"The only problem is that the UI is not very impressive."
"The organzation is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate"
"Exabeam needs to improve its adaptive nature towards rules and its capability to understand the entire client environment faster."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful."
"Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance."
"They should provide detailed information about detecting phishing emails."
"It takes too long to generate Spotter reports. For example, a 90-day report is around 100 megabytes. That takes a while, but a one-day report can be generated in a few seconds. We would be happy if they sped up the process."
"Securonix could open up information regarding the indicators of compromise or cyber-threat intelligence database that they use. The idea is that they share what threats they are detecting."
"When they did upgrades or applied patches, sometimes, there was downtime, which required the backfill of data. There were times when we had to reach out and get a lot of things validated."
"I face slowness issues sometimes."
"Sometimes, there is instability in the data in terms of the customization of the time. I have sometimes observed discrepancies in the data, which is something they should work on. They should bring more stability to time customization. If we are seeing a particular data, when we change the time zone, there should be the same data. There should not be any discrepancy."
"The technical support of the solution is an area with shortcomings and needs improvement."
"The solution could provide more automation."
"Other than issues with the training, there have been issues with the encryption. There have also been issues with some of the reporting, minor glitches that they have fixed as they've gone along."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual license required to use Exabeam Fusion SIEM. The price of the solution should be reduced."
"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
"Exabeam is not a cheap solution."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
"The solution is expensive."
"I had heard that it was much cheaper than Splunk and some of the other tools, and they gave us a nice package with support. They accommodated the number of users and support very well."
"A good thing about Securonix is that they don't charge by volume of data or number of devices... They charge by the number of employees, which is a much more predictable number for me, versus data. Our costs are in the $100,000 range over a three-year subscription."
"I rate the pricing an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is very expensive. It is a pretty expensive tool."
"Compared to other brands it seems more affordable to us."
"Its pricing is quite similar to others and is very competitive. The other solutions have different types of licensing, but when you do the math, it is competitive."
"Compared to other known brands in the industry, the overall cost of the licenses is a bit higher than what customers expect."
"Its price is fine. We found it to be cheaper than LogRhythm, Exabeam, Splunk, as well as Elastic Security. A few months ago, when we were comparing Securonix with Elastic Security, we found Securonix to be cheaper than Elasticsearch. We were pretty surprised that Elastic Security is more expensive than Securonix because Elasticsearch is just starting, and it cannot compete with Securonix at this time. So, the pricing of Securonix is pretty good for now."
"The solution's price is double the competitors."
