Really scalable for enterprise customers
The solution should have more integration capabilities with different platforms. The API is nearly open and scalable, so the solution can integrate with many platforms. The solution has more than 200 log sources in the scalability to support, but this is its limit. Installation is pretty easy. However, there are a couple of modules involved, so it is not as easy as it could be. We are talking about a distributed module, not a single-module type. This is what makes things a bit complex, instead of easier. I rate it as a seven out of ten on its installation and configuration capabilities.

"An area for improvement would be better automation and more inbuilt use cases."
"The tool's integration capability isn't so great."
"Security needs improvement."
"The system architecture is complex and sometimes it’s hard to troubleshoot potential problems."
