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…

We use Trellix Helix for protection against network attacks, TLS, and SSL attacks. We also use the solution for user behaviour accesses Trellix Helix helps prevent email attacks, like phishing and email spoofing attacks. Trellix Helix's configuration and learning could be improved to identify…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is the easy-to-use user interface."
"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."
"It's a very user-friendly product and it's a very comprehensive technology."
"The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior."
"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
"Exabeam is very easy to use, with a straightforward platform and workflow, unlike other tools that require more expertise."
"The way it can connect with AWS is very useful, and the integrations are pretty good."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
"The product offers very strong automation. Our cyber security analysts don't have to correlate the information to detect problems. They only need to analyze problems that have been identified by the platform."
"I like that it's easy. It's got the protection set up, and we can see whatever is required. We write our own rules and the rules that we can input. I think it is good."
"The most valuable features include predefined use cases and threatening states."
"We are able to block some advanced malware and other things."
"As far as its core functionality goes, it’s spot-on."
"The integration is very useful and very easy. You can have an API connection with any cloud and I'll be able to do both ways of communication with the help of APA."
"Trellix Helix helps prevent email attacks, like phishing and email spoofing attacks."
"It is kind of simple and very easily deployable. You can start working with it very fast."
 

Cons

"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
"Exabeam needs to improve its adaptive nature towards rules and its capability to understand the entire client environment faster."
"Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful."
"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."
"Exabeam's reporting dashboard could have included a filtering option to filter by the most recent detection."
"We had a large volume right from the beginning and they weren't quite prepared for that. That's something that they should think about when it comes to customers that have a large volume to start off with."
"They should provide detailed information about detecting phishing emails."
"One area for the solution's improvement is integration capabilities, particularly out-of-the-box integration which sometimes requires additional professional services."
"We have certain challenges with integrating the SOAR platform with multiple vendors."
"The graphical user interface could be improved. It's not easy to handle and it's not easy for a customer or end-user to learn how to manage the solution."
"Integrations could be improved, and the dashboard could be a little better."
"It should have more cloud connectors. It could also be cheaper."
"Trellix Helix's configuration and learning could be improved to identify normal traffic from abnormal and to identify trusted domains."
"There is room for improvement in the integration capabilities of third-party tools."
"FireEye Helix would be improved with the option of an on-prem version, which they don't currently offer."
"Sometimes the rules are disabled by FireEye, and we basically get it after the patch. I think there needs to be a better way of creating the application rules. I would like to see better pricing for our licensing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
"The solution is expensive."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
"There is an annual license required to use Exabeam Fusion SIEM. The price of the solution should be reduced."
"Exabeam is not a cheap solution."
"It could be cheaper, but that applies to every product."
"The price could be better. But I think it's rightly placed when we buy everything in one shot, and we get some discount for that. That's how we basically plan our deployment, and it's holistic. We pay for the license yearly."
"I rate Trellix Helix a five out of ten for pricing."
"FireEye Helix is a little expensive."
