Comprehensive monitoring boosts security, yet incident management features need expansion

Fortinet FortiSIEM should broaden its remediation part to include more features for incident management. Currently, to manage repetitive incidents or for remediation, I need to use a separate software called FortiSOAR. Additionally, the search functionality in FortiAI should be improved to provide more precise results, making it easier for me to understand what actions need to be taken.

We can set up a dashboard to monitor the status of an entire site, which provides more insight into any issues across devices

One engineer is enough for the solution's maintenance. There has been a significant improvement in Statseeker in the last few versions. It includes a wallet map and features we plan to implement when deploying the latest or penultimate versions across all our sites. This will significantly assist in identifying sites surpassing thresholds or KPIs, making issue detection much more accessible. The threshold feature is handy for identifying delays and major outages. This graphical map enables us to quickly assess the scope of nationwide problems, allowing for swift action and efficient reporting to management and service providers. This tool facilitates monitoring by visualizing all network elements with their respective coordinates, highlighting any downtimes or issues through color-coded green for operational, orange for approaching thresholds, yellow for minor alarms, and red for critical issues. The tool is a monitoring tool that helps in identifying problems. It is necessary to have someone trained to set up the dashboards because they might require some programming or specific configuration skills. Once it's configured, it works well. It's not as straightforward as other tools where you plug in the device, and everything works. With Statseeker, you still need to put in some effort to set up your dashboard properly. It requires someone with good training and proficiency in setting up these dashboards. They can benefit the technical and operations teams, providing useful insights into the network and the executive management team to receive reports on the overall network health. Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"It's very easy for anyone to work with."

"FortiSIEM allows you to match IPs with threat intelligence feeds from sources like Kaspersky or Anomali, adding valuable context."

"We have many application systems, and I can set up Fortinet FortiSIEM for users to monitor their systems."

"FortiSIEM's best features are the dashboards and customization."

"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 works well with medium to large-scale enterprises."

"We find the solution to be stable."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM pros

"Statseeker helps to quickly see if you have a spike or something going on. In the future, we need to get NetFlow in the tool so we can see what the IP is."

"The solution reduces the complexity of our network monitoring because it can make my engineers do their jobs faster. The solution also reduces troubleshooting time for network administrators to pinpoint issues quicker."

"In terms of network visibility, Statseeker can be very granular. We can tell it exactly where we want it to go and where we want it to check, or it can do an SNMP walk and find out where everything is. It's very detailed."

"It is fairly simple and easy to use as an all-purpose network monitor."

"This solution helps in terms of troubleshooting, and you can do capacity planning with it."

"It also allows us to predict the capacity on WAN circuits, as well as other circuits, to help us plan for upgrading."

"The most important feature for us is the interface statistics, because our customer normally asks us for bandwidth utilization reports. Statseeker has very descriptive transmit and receive information."

"The most important feature is just the fact that it doesn't aggregate the information up, and I can look at detailed information going back quite a long time."

More Statseeker pros

Cons

"The built-in APIs in Fortinet FortiSIEM are somewhat lacking and could be improved for better integration with external ITSM products."

"Sometimes, if there are changes made by a user on a database server, it can be difficult to get that information on the fly. I would like to see a situation where once I specify a user with the database server I need, and with the changes they have performed on that, I don't need to continue my search pattern to drill down just to get the information."

"The biggest thing that could be better is a quicker response to support cases."

"The interface needs some improvements because it's a bit cumbersome when you're trying to view items. It takes some time to get used to. Additionally, sometimes the scrolling does not work."

"Our customers are noticing configuration available in the GUI interface and I think that they should be equal."

"The reporting feature is not very attractive for the upper management and I am not able to perform complex/nested queries."

"The graphs on the user interface could be improved as we often experience glitches."

"The process of installing Fortinet FortiSIEM and the customization of the alerts take too long."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM cons

"The interface could be more user-friendly and it would be nice if there were enhanced options for reporting."

"It would be nice if they had twenty-four-hour technical support because we contact Australia and we have to wait for them to open."

"I would like to see more comprehensive reporting and alerting."

"There is a little bit of room to improve in the alerting section to give some more options there. It's all I can think of right now off the top of my head."

"We haven't seen an ROI."

"Maybe they could provide a little bit more flexibility on creating custom dashboards."

"The main issue I've seen, in the last six months to a year, is when I upgrade I seem to be hitting bugs. The upgrade won't go smoothly and I have to engage support. These things happen when you upgrade, it's not the end of the world, but from a stability point of view, the only time I've so far, is during upgrades."

"I would like to see some layer two and layer three topology mappings, similar to what NNMi and SolarWinds presents."

More Statseeker cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Fortinet FortiSIEM is not an expensive solution."

"FortiSIEM's licensing is based on EPS, and its pricing is competitive in the market."

"Its price can be better. We are Fortinet partners, so we can get discounts, but its price can be an issue at the beginning for others. There is a licensing scheme for every case. There are three licensing schemes that we can choose from."

"Fortinet FortiSIEM is very cost-efficient compared to other SIEM solutions."

"The price of Fortinet FortiSIEM was reasonable compared to other solutions."

"We pay for a license for FortiSIEM. We pay for the license and renewal."

"We bought the perpetual license, so we own the product, but there is a three-year support renewal fee for that."

"Pricing is acceptable for more than 90% of our customers, as they normally get discounts."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM pricing and cost advice

"We have permanent licenses so there's really no cost, other than ongoing maintenance. When I think about it, that's running us about $20,000 a year."

"This tool would probably be priced well if it had deeper NetFlow capabilities, but for our use case, in particular, we're only recovering ports after ninety days and looking at circuit congestion, it's pretty pricey."

"Pricing is reasonable but licensing should unlimited."

"We paid $5,000 to $10,000 a year in maintenance."

"It would definitely be a yearly licensing cost, but I don't know what it is."

"Statseeker is pretty cheap."

"When it came to selecting this solution, it came down to cost."

"We pay a yearly maintenance fee of approximately $40,000 USD."
