Featured Reviews

HS
Senior Cyber Cons at MDS
Improves threat investigation speed and reduces cyber risks but requires a more comprehensive use case library
In general, if something needs to be improved in the algorithm, it would be the dashboards. The dashboards with solutions such as Splunk are very neat and clean. I would also like to improve the use cases LogRhythm has. It does not have a very large use case library, so the content engineer needs to develop use cases rapidly alongside emerging threats.
RS
Engineer - Information Security at N-Able (Pvt) Ltd
Has faced limitations in AI capabilities and pricing flexibility
Pricing-wise, Wazuh stands out, along with deployment flexibility and its documentation which is extremely good in comparison to Forti. The community support is also incredible. They have helped quite a bit because previously, we had a separate tool and management dashboard to do our compliance. With Wazuh, we receive that information without having to do anything extra. We just set up the SIEM and all of that information was automatically populated. The dashboards are very easy to understand and very quick with no lag or delay. I have experienced delays on Forti's dashboards, but not with Wazuh. Wazuh is quite good. In comparison to Forti, they are quite similar. They are very good at detection.

Pros

"What I like most about LogRhythm UEBA is that it allows you to identify and analyze end-user behaviors and suspicious activities within the systems."
"LogRhythm UEBA [EOL] has positively impacted our organization by improving our ability to detect insider threats and compromised accounts earlier, resulting in better security visibility, reduced false positives, and faster investigations and response times, which helped the team operate more effectively with greater confidence."
"I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"The tool's most valuable feature is server threat hunting."
"The most valuable features are file activity monitoring and registry activity monitoring."
"It has a lot of features. It has file integration monitoring."
"Good capability pinpointing specific cyber incidents."
"I typically use the product for reducing cyber risk, and I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."
"Integrates with various open-source and paid products, allowing for flexibility in customization based on use cases."
"Wazuh's most beneficial features for our security needs are flexibility, built-in rules, integration capabilities, and documentation."
"I find the PCI DSS feature the most valuable, along with the feature that monitors the compliance of Windows and the CIS benchmarks on other devices like Unix or Linux systems."
"Some of the strengths of Wazuh that stand out for us include its scalability when deployed on Azure, its open-source nature, which allows for customization based on our needs, and its compatibility with various security solutions like threat intelligence platforms."
"It's stable."
"My company implemented Wazuh because it was relatively inexpensive. They could quickly get their hands on it to check a box for some audit and compliance."
"The deployment is easy and they provide very good documentation."
"Wazuh's most valuable features include file monitoring and compliance reporting, which do not require excessive costs."
 

Cons

"The UI could be improved a little bit."
"In general, if something needs to be improved in the algorithm, it would be the dashboards."
"The cloud version is lacking and not up to par."
"LogRhythm UEBA's data aggregation needs to be improved. Open-source users do not have much documentation available. Documentation is available only for enterprise users."
"LogRhythm UEBA [EOL] could be improved with more flexible tuning options and clearer model transparency to better understand why certain behaviors are flagged; enhanced integrations with additional data sources and more intuitive dashboards would also help improve usability and investigation efficiency."
"The on-premises LogRhythm is not very scalable. When considering packets per second or the MPS needed for additional logs such as web application logs, scalability is usually found in cloud products."
"The product should improve its dashboards. Splunk has neat dashboards. Additionally, we would like to enhance the use cases provided by LogRhythm as its use case library is not as extensive as other tools. Its machine-learning capabilities need to improve when compared to other solutions. It lacks risk quantification in a single, transparent view for individuals such as CSOs."
"It would be helpful if there were more guidance provided for integrating with unsupported devices."
"The biggest part that's missing is threat intelligence. It isn't inbuilt, and if a sudden incident occurs, we don't get that feedback inside the SIEM tool. That's a big gap, I see. It would be better if we could get the threat intelligence feeds integrated with the SIEM tools. That would help us push value solutions to the clients in a big way."
"The technical support can be improved. Wazuh has some bugs that need to be fixed. It would be good if we can have automation with respect to incidence responses."
"The support channel is not optimal, and extensive research is required on our part to implement Wazuh effectively."
"Wazuh could improve the detection, it is not detecting all of the attacks. Additionally, it is lacking features compared to other solutions."
"One area where Wazuh could use some improvement is in its reporting mechanism, especially for high-level management like CSOs and CEOs."
"Adding the flexibility to integrate various plug-ins or modules into its core system would enhance functionality."
"The support channel is not optimal, and extensive research is required on our part to implement Wazuh effectively."
"I have yet to find the same capability in Wazuh to get logs from different sources into the system"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is nice when compared to other products in the industry."
"As LogRhythm UEBA is pretty expensive, I'd give its pricing a seven out of ten."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. It's not expensive compared to its competitors."
"It is quite a budget-friendly product."
"LogRhythm UEBA's pricing is affordable for small and medium businesses."
"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten. However, the cloud version is expensive. You need to hire professional services for deployment and migrations, which can be expensive."
"Wazuh is open-source, but you must consider the total cost of ownership. It may be free to acquire, but you spend a lot of time and effort supporting the product and getting it to a point where it's useful."
"Wazuh has a community edition, and I was using that. It's free and open source."
"The current pricing is open source."
"Wazuh is an open-source tool, which means it is freely available for use."
"They have a good pricing strategy for market expansion."
"The solution's pricing is very competitive."
"Wazuh is free and open source."
"The product price is neither too high nor too low."
