It's cheaper than other solutions with the same features but lacks integration with many third-party vendors
I am part of the team that implements the solution, and we hand it over to the operations team. We use FortiSIEM to ingest logs. The customer provides us with the IPs for the log sources, and we add them to the FortiSIEM dashboard. We can check the logs for signs of malicious access from outside…

A network monitoring platform with a useful reporting feature, but permission-based options could be better
It's basically used for network monitoring. It lets you know what's happening on a network at all times. For example, it lets you know if there's an intrusion or anything like that. I know you typically have a firewall to deal with that, but sometimes you'll find certain solutions that show that…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"To add workers and even collectors is pretty easy."
"FortiSIEM helped us discover all the threats at the time that were attacking the IT services of the company. We now have multiple-level authentication."
"The solution is easy to use and user-friendly."
"It gives us the opportunity to generate notifications based upon rules that get triggered, and the rules could be specific to PCI, HIPAA, GIBA, NIST, and so forth."
"We have found the most important features in Fortinet FortiSIEM to be the correlation, file utility check, latest file, and hash changes. These features are important for us."
"It's easy to manage. There's a web interface and a command line, depending on what the user is comfortable with. There's a large knowledge base available, and the support is timely."
"The primary valuable feature is that it has replaced a whole lot of other products with one platform."
"It works well with medium to large-scale enterprises."
More Fortinet FortiSIEM pros
"Reporting on NetCrunch is pretty good. It's very similar to SolarWinds. It's just a different interface. The majority of everything there was beneficial."
 

Cons

"We expect the latest patch from Fortinet FortiSIEM to give the ability to work with signature files."
"The log collection and configuration management are not great."
"An improvement would be if FortiSIEM's licensing was based on the number of nodes rather than the EPS."
"It would be good if the solution offered even more configuration options, especially in relation to the VPN so that it continues to be a very flexible option."
"There could be more AI features included in the product."
"Our customers are noticing configuration available in the GUI interface and I think that they should be equal."
"The backup and recovery process for this solution needs improvement."
"Does not have load-sharing or high-availability, and these are important things to implement. I can do the same things in another way, but not naturally having these features makes it complicated."
More Fortinet FortiSIEM cons
"I didn't care for the role-based, permission-based options, which were not the best."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is acceptable for more than 90% of our customers, as they normally get discounts."
"The price is competitive."
"There are additional features that cost more than the standard licensing fees."
"The price of the solution is expensive. The license is scalable. If there are 10 devices it is simple to license."
"The price of Fortinet FortiSIEM is a lot less when compared to other solutions."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM is cheaper compared to other products."
"They have a yearly subscription."
"Fortinet FortiSIEM is not an expensive solution."
