Pros
"It's a solid platform and is stable enough.

More ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) Pros →

"Any unusual behaviour, we can monitor. We have alerts set up to be sent when we receive signs of any unusual behaviour.""Its powerful correlation engine helps reduce time in manually correlating events.""It has powerful threat detection, incident response, and compliance management.""The most valuable feature is threat intelligence.""AlienVault provides a checklist answer when using SIEM.""The asset management functionality (active and passive scans) is also really important. You can't protect what you do not know about, so having an inventory of all your devices and software is critical to a security management program.""It has allowed us to see what is happening on our servers.""As we have to service several servers, we can manage them in a economical way, which is beneficial to our team and business."

Cons
"I couldn’t get any training videos online when I was working with the tool.""They should make it a little bit easier to generate events and share them with the community""It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment.""Integration is an area that could use some improvement."

More ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) Cons →

"The AT&T AlienVault USM is okay, but the relational database is not very good for large amounts of data. For example, many logs cannot be processed. It has been very slow for the queries and some data which are large, it is not very good in this case.""The vulnerability scanning feature is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings and needs to improve. The tool has vulnerability scanning, but it is not that efficient.""The one thing I continue to dislike about the USM is the limitation on reports.""Search performance can be slow. The Raw Logs feature is painfully slow. And if we're talking about the newer, the Anywhere product, you can't even schedule reports on the thing. There are probably a dozen other features I'd really like to see there, but that would be one of the biggies.""Their threat intelligence platform needs to be broadened. They should integrate it with more threat intelligence platforms. For the threat feed that they get from open intelligence, I would like them to add a few premium threat intelligence platforms. They can provide a bundle in which AlienVault has the threat intelligence background of other premium products.""AlienVault needs to continue to integrate with other third-party technologies that clients want to have monitored.""There could be some type of integration with our existing portal. We have our own customer portals, and it would be good if there was an integration so that our portal can provide reports. There could be some type of API into the AlienVault system with the USM system so that it is easy to show the customers high-level reports of the system through our portal.""There are many reports included but would be nice to have better access to the data."
