Tony Zafiropoulos - PeerSpot reviewer
Aggregates logs in one place and helps to review data points
We tried Graylog Security, starting with their inexpensive open-source version. We tested it out and continued using it for a while. As for the main differences between Graylog Security and other vendors, some users might prefer cloud-based platforms over on-premises solutions. It isn't inherently cloud-native, but that might not matter much for some.
Subhash Sreenivasan - PeerSpot reviewer
Roughly 800 to 1000 integrations available with various security products and applications and offers built-in SOAR capabilities
The documentation part is something that needs to be improved, as well as the threat intelligence investigation part. Logpoint has a kind of site to describe what kinds of threats they are investigating. But that, I think, maybe Logpoint can improve more. The threat investigations and reporting to the end-users can be improved. Logpoint can also come up with IR [incident response] capabilities. Other important SIEM solutions have some IR services. If I am an MSSP working with LogPoint for SIEM/SOAR solutions and I need immediate support, I should be able to get some support. It can be paid support, like SecureWorks, which has those kinds of functionalities. They will immediately get in and start working on helping us identify the threats, isolate them, and give us remedies to take care of and recover from any kind of attacks. Whereas in LogPoint, that functionality is missing. We will be on our own if something happens. We will get other support from them, but there's no paid support before taking ownership and helping us recover from those kinds of attacks. They have a kind of integration for AI, but the incident response capability is what they should improve.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool aggregates logs. We can see the logs in one place."
"We use the solution to collect logs."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is the combination of the software and the support that they have."
"What I like best about LogPoint is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions. LogPoint also has better dashboards which I find valuable. I also like that you can create use cases based on your assets."
"They basically charge you in a better way."
"We like the user and entity behaviour analytics (UEBA) and find it valuable."
"The search feature is valuable. The dashboards are also valuable for our bosses. Another valuable feature, which is the main feature of the product, is the centralization of all the logs."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"The flexibility of the search feature and the solution's analytics features are the most valuable parts of the solution."
"The product is easy to use."
 

Cons

"Graylog Security needs to incorporate security scorecards."
"What could be improved in LogPoint is its UI because it's less friendly to users than LogRhythm. The UI could be more aesthetically appealing to users. It's completely outdated."
"One of the things we faced last year was that we had some memory issues with the server running. We were running them as virtual services, and we were facing some performance issues. Back then, there were some things that had already been solved at the end, but one of the small issues we had was that it was quite memory-consuming. After one upgrade that we did, we faced some performance issues."
"LogPoint can improve its dashboards. We are not able to customize the dashboard when creating them. They only have preset dashboards which do not have exactly what we are looking for."
"The general public wasn't looking for that type of product unless you had a company that was medical or financial and needed 24-hour responsiveness."
"The interface needs things like wizards that will assist with creating complex correlation rules."
"Dashboards could be developed further."
"The documentation part is something that needs to be improved, as well as the threat intelligence investigation part."
"In terms of functionality, it is very good. The only issue is the documentation. Its documentation should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing a one out of ten."
"For a hundred user deployment the cost is about $10,000. The next year it would be the same because it's a subscription-based license. There are separate costs as well, for example, if a customer asks for training for their staff."
"Our licensing fees are about $10,000 USD per month, which I think is fair."
"It's getting more expensive, which is one of the reasons we're looking around just to see if there's anything better value."
"Logpoint's pricing is mid-ranged and depends on the number of devices."
"LogPoint seemed like it was a good product, but it was expensive and there wasn't any room to move the pricing when customers needed a lower-costing solution."
"My company used to pay for LogPoint costs annually. It's a cost-effective solution. I'm not part of the Finance team, though, so I'm not sure exactly what the licensing fee is or what license my company had."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I would rate LogPoint's pricing a seven. It is not very expensive compared to some of the more costly products, and it is not very cheap compared to some of the cheaper products in the SIEM market."
"It's less expensive than the competitors. The Logpoint marketing team is very accommodating and client-friendly. They offer very good reductions in price. They are pretty good in this aspect. They are transparent in their licensing and pricing."
