Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I found most useful in ManageEngine EventLog Analyzer is its integration with other ManageEngine applications. It seamlessly integrates throughout the ManageEngine suite, and that's beneficial. I also like that the solution has chain management capabilities, it has a modular approach, and it's easy to reach the support team."
"The tool's reports show activities."
"The log management has helped to improve my organization."
"The initial setup is straightforward"
"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."
"It is stable."
"It's one of the easiest products. It's very simple to use."
"If they support a solution, it is easy to do an integration."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"Wazuh is simple to use for PCI compliance."
"It is excellent in terms of visualization and indexing services, making it a powerful tool for malware detection."
"Its cost-effectiveness is the most valuable aspect."
"Regarding Wazuh, I find the SCA (Security Configuration Assessment) features most valuable. It's crucial for asset management and inventory, allowing us to monitorendpoints and servers' changes easily. This is particularly important for my customers, who aren't heavily focused on incident response but rely on asset management and inventories. Wazuh's compliance management features are very supportive, especially in regions like the Americas and Europe. However, it's less effective in the ANZ (Australia and New Zealand) region since Wazuh doesn't cater to the specific compliance standards there, such as those required in Australia. I appreciate that Wazuh fully complies with PCI DSS and GDPR standards, allowing us to generate necessary reports."
"The product is easy to customize."
"Wazuh's logging features integrate seamlessly with AWS cloud-native services. There are also Wazuh agent configurations for different use cases, like vulnerability scanning, host-based intrusion detection, and file integrity monitoring."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more detailed reports."
"Support could improve to make the solution better."
"It may not be as easy to use as Splunk."
"The scalability is limited."
"There isn't good security integration when it comes to cybersecurity. The correlation of logs isn't so simple."
"There's a lot to improve in terms of connectivity. Currently, we're utilizing it across various infrastructures and environments, including others' cloud. However, connecting it to our infrastructure and integrating it with some of our SMAX solutions poses difficulties."
"The customization of reports could be a lot easier. It is not difficult but it could be made easier."
"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."
"The only challenge we faced with Wazuh was the lack of direct support."
"Adding the flexibility to integrate various plug-ins or modules into its core system would enhance functionality."
"While it is scalable, it can suffer from reduced latencies."
"The product's configuration part and lack of AI capabilities are some of the major concerns associated with Wazuh."
"The support team could be more responsive and provide quicker replies during our working hours in Indonesia, which would be a significant improvement."
"Integration with Vyara could be better."
"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."
"Wazuh doesn't have native support for some enterprise solutions."
