Pros

"ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is easy to gather reports to give to management. My supervisor has access to the solution and he enjoys the graphs."
"I have made use of technical support and am certainly very satisfied with them."
"It's one of the easiest products. It's very simple to use."
"The initial setup is straightforward"
"The log management has helped to improve my organization."
"The user interface is very good."
"The most valuable features of ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer are the number of capabilities, file integration monitoring, web server log collection, and alert configuration."
"The reporting features are noteworthy, as they provide templates that streamline the process of generating reports"
"We are able to block some advanced malware and other things."
"The product offers very strong automation. Our cyber security analysts don't have to correlate the information to detect problems. They only need to analyze problems that have been identified by the platform."
"The most valuable features include predefined use cases and threatening states."
"I like that it's easy. It's got the protection set up, and we can see whatever is required. We write our own rules and the rules that we can input. I think it is good."
"Trellix Helix helps prevent email attacks, like phishing and email spoofing attacks."
"It is kind of simple and very easily deployable. You can start working with it very fast."
"As far as its core functionality goes, it’s spot-on."
"FireEye Helix's best features are its speed and use of an easy-to-understand language to send queries to the raw logs."
 

Cons

"There isn't good security integration when it comes to cybersecurity. The correlation of logs isn't so simple."
"Support could improve to make the solution better."
"The solution should improve on its log capturing capabilities."
"The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier."
"The scalability is limited."
"The first tier of customer service and support is not great."
"The solution is stable. However, there are limits. For example, we can do 2,500 Syslog events per second, but if we want to do more we have to install the distributor structure, and then we can expand how many events we can do. They could improve the stability."
"I would like to see more detailed reports."
"The graphical user interface could be improved. It's not easy to handle and it's not easy for a customer or end-user to learn how to manage the solution."
"We have certain challenges with integrating the SOAR platform with multiple vendors."
"We often rely on Martins to create logs and provide professional threat services rather than basic support."
"FireEye Helix would be improved with the option of an on-prem version, which they don't currently offer."
"Trellix Helix's configuration and learning could be improved to identify normal traffic from abnormal and to identify trusted domains."
"It should have more cloud connectors. It could also be cheaper."
"Trellix needs to address the price for the product to be more appealing to customers."
"Sometimes the rules are disabled by FireEye, and we basically get it after the patch. I think there needs to be a better way of creating the application rules. I would like to see better pricing for our licensing."
