An easy-to-use solution, but its data lake features could be simple to understand
We use the solution to investigate incidents and create rules for use cases The solution provides an easy-to-use platform to create rules for use cases. The solution's data lake features could be easier to understand for end users. They should also provide detailed information about detecting…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's initial setup process is easy."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM has a good performance and more advantages than traditional solutions."
"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 most valuable feature of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is the easy-to-use user interface."
"The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior."
"The user interface and the timelines they use are the most valuable features. The price model is very simple so that one can understand it easily and there are no surprises within it."
"The way it can connect with AWS is very useful, and the integrations are pretty good."
More Exabeam pros
"Every activity on the firewall is recorded, and notifications are sent with this solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ease of deployment that it provides to users. The integrations that the product has with third-party applications are useful."
"The vulnerability scanning is helpful to identify the areas that need patching or fixes installed."
"AlientVault has helped us in improving our visualization and incident response during cybersecurity situations."
"Having everything in a central place has been helpful."
"The dashboards are very descriptive and contain just the right amount of information. The activity alarms and events contain a plethora of data that is very descriptive and useful."
"The asset management functionality (active and passive scans) is also really important. You can't protect what you do not know about, so having an inventory of all your devices and software is critical to a security management program."
"We are able to get alerts perfectly with FIM and VA features."
More USM Anywhere pros
 

Cons

"The initial setup of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is complex because it needs to integrate with the SIEM solution, but after this is complete it is straightforward."
"Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance."
"Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful."
"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."
"We still have questions surrounding hardware deployment."
"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."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
More Exabeam cons
"USM Anywhere relies a lot on the community putting the data in. Often, you'll right-click on the attack, but nothing will be found. That's a weakness of it."
"One area that has room for improvement is storage. AllienVault is a good place to put logs, but sometimes it's a tough place to go get logs... The logger can only hold so much data. If they improved that, that would help."
"Support can be slow at times, but the quality is high. Posted knowledge base articles could use improvement."
"Maybe logs are the problem, as the database query is too slow. If you want to search something, you need time to find it."
"For creating new rules, you have to be familiar with regular expressions. I feel there could be something built-in to make sure that process is easier."
"they seem to have bugs from time to time that go unfixed for a while and that is frustrating. I'm not saying the product needs to be bug-free, but they need to be responsive to bugs."
"I've been told that AlienVault doesn't have a full version of NES running in there, but I'm not sure if that's accurate or if my engineer made it that way. I'm not sure he was completely honest either because we had NES in the environment before. Those tools could be improved because AlienVault is a SIEM, and it added all these other features."
"The solution already has quite good tools, however, they need better integration tools for linking with Office 365, Google Suite, and so on."
More USM Anywhere cons
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
"The solution is expensive."
"There is an annual license required to use Exabeam Fusion SIEM. The price of the solution should be reduced."
"AlienVault is flexible on their pricing for unlimited licenses."
"Use an MSSP instead. It is much cheaper."
"They are a little more expensive than Microsoft."
"We checked out several competitors. For what it can do and the cost, it was the best option!"
"So far, I feel the product's pricing is a good value. The technology is decent. You get what you pay for. I think it's fair."
"​The vulnerability management solution is worse than buying a Nessus Professional license.​"
"The ROI is quite good."
"They charge a license based on the storage. ATT AlienVault USM is a less expensive solution than IBM QRadar."
