Joseph W. - PeerSpot reviewer
Has pre-built pieces for third party vendors and does not take a long time to implement
One of the main features that I like about LogRhythm SIEM is that there are a lot of pre-built pieces. Like with our AV, we didn't have to tell it how to read the logs; they already had it pre-made. So, we essentially just had to follow their guide to get the logs imported in and set up some rules for it. We've only had to manually create the parsing rules for a few of our vendors so that we could interpret the logs correctly. Most of them had already been pre-created for us. We use the Event Log Filtering feature a lot. We use it for simple troubleshooting tasks like when a user is logged out, to more important tasks like trying to investigate a threat. As far as its effect on productivity, we can go and search instead of trying to troubleshoot and guess what is causing an error. We can identify what the program is or where the hiccup is. LogRhythm helped us to identify a lot of blind spots. Originally, we didn't have a SIEM tool. We had auditors say that this is something that we should be doing. My management team asked me to go and find a product, and I researched a bunch of them and found LogRhythm. It really opened our eyes to see how much traffic we have, whether it's other IP addresses that are scanning us or external users trying to hit certain ports that could then get closed. It helped us tighten down some of those firewall rules that may have been left open unintentionally through other changes. It helped us a lot early on to identify who was trying to communicate with us or, essentially, who was trying to attack us. As far as our overall security posture, our SIEM tool was the initial push that really got us going into identifying where all of our threats were. We expanded over the seven years that we've had it, and I implemented at least eight other products that are all security related because the SIEM tool indicated the need to identify other risks. It really helped us as an organization to identify risks and move forward to a more secure environment.

Good file integrity monitoring and change tracking tools but the knowledge base needs to be available online
For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet. I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Their customer support is friendly and willing to help."
"The user interface is pretty good compared to other SIEM tools."
"We have to be able to show the evidence, and LogRhythm does a great job of putting it forward and making it easy to create reports with nice looking dashboards, which show off what we are doing as a security program."
"The most useful feature that I've found so far is the search function. I like all the different ways you're able to search through metadata and the different ways you're able to correlate or search through logs to find out what's going on."
"I find LogRhythm's log management capabilities to be beneficial."
"The most valuable feature of LogRhythm for me is the ability to correlate logs throughout many different log sources."
"Even other products we have that feed into it, instead of having to watch all of them we only have to watch one. For example, we have CrowdStrike, so instead of having to pay attention that solution - because their dashboard doesn't really pop when an alarm comes up - we can see issues with the red on the LogRhythm alarm. That is very nice."
"We integrated Azure logs with it and that makes it simpler. Rather than having to log into the portal, we can just check everything in one place. We can compare those to our Windows and host logs to see if any problems correlate between them."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more integration with more products that are out there within the same security field."
"One thing we have mentioned to them before is that we'd like to be able to do searches, or drill-downs, directly from an alarm. When you click it and the Inspector tab slides out, that might be a good place to be able to click the host to search for the last 24 hours. I know the search is right there but it would be even nicer to just click that and then have an option to search something there."
"In terms of blind spots, we are looking for more improvements since we don't have visibility over everything."
"Sometimes the error-logging is not altogether helpful. For example, on an upgrade, a systems data processor, a Windows box, was throwing an error code like 1083. Then it just stopped and it died right out of the installer and nobody looked. We searched through Google and what it means is the Windows Firewall wasn't turned on so that it could create a rule for the product. Why wouldn't they bubble up that description so that I wouldn't have to call support and I could just know, "Okay, the firewall wasn't turned on. Turn it back on. Re-run the installer and keep going.""
"There is room for improvement with separate running sources or better integration."
"The built-in functionality of the solution for NDR, SOAR, SIEM, and EDS has room for improvement."
"More detail in the alerts given to avoid additional searches, as often the source or destination associated with the alert is not evidenced."
"NextGen SIEM's integration with other software is good but could be improved."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We work with French-speaking African countries, and it costs more than the average SIEM solution. Also, the pricing isn't too flexible. AlienVault, Splunk, and IBM QRadar are more suitable for customers on a tight budget."
"Look closely at the cost of licensing of other products. This should include setups and the need for support services. I did a RFQ to 2 other vendors before choosing this product."
"Look for whatever will give you the most value. That's the main point. It is not one size fits all."
"I would rate the tool's pricing around eight out of ten."
"In the context of our country, the price of this solution is too high."
"I have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. We went from not detecting them to detecting them. We can actually pick up what is anomalous in our network now."
"We have seen a measurable decrease in the mean time to detect and respond to threats. As it comes out new features and new releases, the window is becoming a lot narrower because you can pivot a lot more with the data. Therefore, the new features and enhancements are reducing that."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high, I rate the pricing between six and seven."
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
