Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We're able to get real-timec as well as our customer networks that we're monitoring at all times.""I like FortiSIEM because it integrates natively with our other Fortinet solutions and the Fortinet Fabric, but it also integrates with Cisco, Palo Alto and other security fabrics.""Fortinet FortiSIEM's most valuable feature is the simplicity in handling multi-tenancy and the ability to switch between different clients at the same time. That was handled flawlessly.""The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiSIEM are the SD-WAN, Global LAN, and application controls.""Real-time monitoring makes life quite easy for me.""Fortinet FortiSIEM is easy to use.""This solution offers extensive customization options, making it possible to adapt it precisely to their requirements.""Easy alert setup which enables different alerts in different categories."

"The solution is scalable.""Device backups are smooth and managed centrally, with a nice dashboard, so you can quickly see the status.""The solution offers very good integration capabilities.""This is a good general monitoring system that has all the features we require and they constantly update with new capabilities.""The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to reach most of our network devices and get the most from them.""The setup was easy.""Some of the most valuable features are the accessibility of the solution and the fact that it is simpler than other products. For example, discovering devices in the network is very simple, making it user-friendly.""The solution is finely stable."

Cons
"FortiSIEM is not a market leader in the SIEM space.""Network detection and response is a separate product.""It's difficult to integrate unsupported devices with FortiSIEM compared to QRadar. It's easier to integrate and develop processes in QRadar. It's harder to develop a custom process in FortiSIEM.""Our customers are noticing configuration available in the GUI interface and I think that they should be equal.""Customer support service could be better.""There could be more AI features included in the product.""With FortiSIEM, the issue has to do with the ways we can generate a report. It's not as flexible compared to that with other SIEM tools, like Splunk.""The support of the product changed recently, and I don't think it's for the better. They should work to improve the support they offer to clients."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM Cons →

"The integration with various OEM products could be simplified.""We encounter challenges in monitoring cloud services. I would also appreciate it if there was someone available to walk you through the documentation.""We would like link monitoring included. At times we need to monitor those specific links closely.""This product is little bit slow sometimes. It may be that we need to change the configuration to improve performance.""Needs an OVA, or more support for virtual deployments. Building a virtual instance of OpManager and OpManager Probe was a bit difficult because there was no OVA available.""We have been facing an issue since last year when a lot of our users started to work from home through their mobiles or computers. We are having trouble reaching these devices. We are now planning to publish our instance to the cloud so that we can reach these devices. Its performance should be improved in terms of the discovery of the devices. I would like to feel confident with the discovery that this solution does. For example, on my dashboard, I would like to be able to view a list of all devices seen on a specific server. At present, it is difficult to find such information. This would be an excellent feature to have.""We had some stability issues at the outset that have since been resolved.""With regard to configurations, however, it would be nice to have more documentation on SNMP configurations. For example, if I want to add a new vendor, it would be great if ManageEngine provided the requirements for that vendor, such as the commands needed."
