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.

Support both French and English, which is important for us and adapted to the evolving security landscape over time in my experience
You need a skilled engineer to deploy it because you can do anything with this tool. You can see everything on the network. A good engineer will be surprised and have fun using this tool because it's very powerful. Deployment process: You need to build a recipe/layout when you want to deploy something. Once the recipe is done, you just have to copy it. So you really need a good engineer at first, but then any other technician can copy the recipe. You don't need to be an expert once the recipe is finalized. So, once you have it set up, it's easy to deploy. But you need a good engineer to deploy it correctly. You will get alerts from the system, but if you want to fully explore and maximize the tool, the engineering needs are different.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I would rate the product a ten out of ten. The solution is very user-friendly and straightforward. The tool's report customization is interesting."
"It supports most standard log sources."
"The user interface is good."
"The security operation center is excellent."
"LogRhythm SIEM offers advanced features such as AI engine modules, machine learning, and threat intelligence integration, which help reduce false positives. Advanced analytics streamlines incident response processes, enabling incident responders to prioritize and automate alerts."
"We have NetFlow information going into it, so we can examine a lot of traffic patterns and anomalies, especially if something stands out and is not the baseline. This helps a lot."
"Its benefits are broad. The solution isn't necessarily made to do any one thing, but it can do anything you tell it to. It is able to tackle any different type or size of job."
"The most valuable feature of LogRhythm for me is the ability to correlate logs throughout many different log sources."
"The configuration part is very easy...The technical support was sincere in their responses...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is the management features. It's capable of managing large enterprises."
"We developed around this solution and received excellent support from the company."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the reporting."
 

Cons

"The web and on-premise console interface should be the same instead of having a separate engine for each."
"I would like to see case management become more independent from LogRhythm itself."
"Sometimes the Platform Manager crashes because it's built around Windows."
"I think they probably need to, because a lot of companies are having this cloud-first strategy, where anything that's new has to go into the cloud for some reason."
"Move it to Linux. I would like to see it get off the SQL Server."
"The initial setup is complex. We are using a LogRhythm partner, at least for the first three years, to help with the monitoring and the deployment of it. We are not a big enough environment where we have people that we can dedicate to it right now."
"I would like to see our vulnerabilities counter. We will be using Tenable to fill that void right now."
"It will definitely help if the parsing side would be much easier, meaning it would be better if we could easily make adjustments on the parser, both on standard and non-standard log sources."
"RSA enVision log manager is out of date and is not in use anymore."
"The integration could be easier, it should support more products."
"Licensing could be improved to be more oriented towards Managed Service Providers (MSPs)."
"In general, the solution currently isn't user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high, I rate the pricing between six and seven."
"It is a very cost-effective solution."
"LogRhythm's licensing is based on MPS. There are some add-on features like advanced UEBA, the cloud component for advanced UEBA, and SIEM."
"It costs a great amount, but its pricing is competitive with some of the other vendors. For licensing and support, we pay about 20,000. There are no additional costs or anything like that."
"I would rate the pricing 4 out of 5. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
"NextGen SIEM's pricing is moderate."
"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."
"The setup and licensing for small and medium size businesses is straightforward, though when it comes to the enterprise it pays to keep in mind the possibility for complications given all the extras and add-ons that may be required."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high price, I rate the pricing a six."
"We no longer pay a licensing fee because it is out of date and don't pay for support."
