Featured Reviews

Abdullah Secca - PeerSpot reviewer
Valuable monitoring and integration features boost compliance
They are not in the US market, and the quality of support has declined. They migrated operations from Boston to Denmark, and we cannot use a tool hosted outside the country. Additionally, dealing with foreign entities for support was a challenge, leading us to switch providers due to lack of adequate support.
Sandip_Patel - PeerSpot reviewer
Evaluating robust file monitoring with insights for community support improvements
Wazuh's most valuable features include file monitoring and compliance reporting, which do not require excessive costs. These aspects are vital as they provide alerts for changes and facilitate the monitoring of compliance. The platform is also relatively easy to set up and operate. Reports are straightforward to extract and prove useful for compliance requirements.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is user-friendly."
"The most beneficial was being able to prove, with proper reports, that from a compliance perspective, the company is in control. The service part of LogPoint did modifications or did some additional work to have the proper reports defined."
"We like the user and entity behaviour analytics (UEBA) and find it valuable."
"The main advantage of Logpoint is the support service. They reply within ten minutes to an hour to our queries."
"Technical support is responsive and very friendly."
"Log collection, dashboards and reporting are good."
"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."
"Wazuh has very flexible and robust features."
"The tool is stable."
"The most valuable feature of Wazuh is the ELK for doing an investigation."
"The MITRE ATT&CK correlation is most valuable."
"Wazuh is simple to use for PCI compliance."
"We use it to find any aberration in our endpoint devices. For example, if someone installs a game on their company laptop, Wazuh will detect it and inform us of the unauthorized software or unintended use of the devices provided by the company."
"It has efficient SCA capabilities."
"Wazuh's most beneficial features for our security needs are flexibility, built-in rules, integration capabilities, and documentation."
 

Cons

"They are not in the US market, and the quality of support has declined."
"Log management could be better because transporting the log from a password to the client system takes time."
"The solution should offer more integrations and third-party solutions like incident response platforms or allow access to third-party big data"
"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."
"Nowadays the trend is going towards the ransomware and the endpoint detection and response. So if they added something for that, that will be very, very good."
"Logpoint is not flexible. Its documentation is not user-friendly."
"It is complicated to collect daily logs from other systems."
"In terms of functionality, it is very good. The only issue is the documentation. Its documentation should be improved."
"The support team could be more responsive and provide quicker replies during our working hours in Indonesia, which would be a significant improvement."
"The tool doesn't detect anomalies or new environments."
"Wazuh currently fails to provide its users with AI and ML."
"Some features, like alerting, are complex with Wazuh."
"There's not much I like about Wazuh. Other products I've used were a lot more functional and user friendly. They came with reports and use cases out of the box. We need to configure Wazuh's alerts and monitoring capabilities manually. It'd be nice if we could select from templates and presets for use cases already built and coded."
"The deployment is a bit complex."
"I have yet to find the same capability in Wazuh to get logs from different sources into the system"
"It would be great if there could be customization for the decoder portion."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's getting more expensive, which is one of the reasons we're looking around just to see if there's anything better value."
"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."
"Our licensing fees are about $10,000 USD per month, which I think is fair."
"Logpoint's pricing is mid-ranged and depends on the number of devices."
"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."
"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."
"It has a fixed price, which is what I like about LogPoint. I bought the system and paid for it, and I pay maintenance. It is not a consumption model. Most SIEMs or most of the log management systems are consumption-based, which means that you pay for how many logs you have in the system. That's a real problem because logs can grow very quickly in different circumstances, and when you have a variable price model, you never know what you're going to pay. Splunk is notoriously expensive for that reason. If you use Splunk or QRadar, it becomes expensive because there are not just the logs; you also have to parse the logs and create indexes. Those indexes can be very expensive in terms of space. Therefore, if they charge you by this space, you can end up paying a significant amount of money. It can be more than what you expect to pay. I like the fact that LogPoint has a fixed cost. I know what I'm going to pay on a yearly basis. I pay that, and I pay the maintenance, and I just make it work."
"My client uses the open-source version of Wazuh."
"Wazuh is not an expensive solution."
"They have a good pricing strategy for market expansion."
"It is a free-of-cost solution."
"The product price is neither too high nor too low."
"The product is cheaper compared to other tools."
"Wazuh has a community edition, and I was using that. It's free and open source."
"Wazuh is open-source, so I think it's an option for a small organization that cannot go for enterprise-grade solutions like Splunk."
