Consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Good filtering and reporting tools but can be difficult to use
It can scale as needed. It's not a problem. There are different teams using it. We have CSOC, which is internal, which is onshore, then we have a security operations center that is offshore, which would be in India. The onshore team might be a group of three, and the offshore might be a group of five. Likely, we have eight to ten people in total using the product directly.

Enterprise Account Manager South at a outsourcing company with 201-500 employees
Advanced analytics have transformed our threat detection and streamlined incident investigations
I would appreciate seeing additional dashboards in Exabeam Fusion SIEM or perhaps more options or the ability to customize them further. While we can customize them currently, there may be additional options available. I value the outcomes navigator because it matches the log piece to the use cases, which is helpful. The correlation rules are excellent. I am interested in whether there are additional threat intelligence feeds available that we could use, whether we can integrate our own, or if we could ingest different ones.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The two most valuable features of this solution are its stability and scalability."
"I like their filtering and their reporting tools, I like their integration with many other different tool sets, which is similar to other products as well, the solution is easy to implement, and I have found the product to be quite stable and scalable."
"Less resource consumption in terms of memory and processing."
"The data collection and the integration with different products are valuable features."
"We use this solution for monitoring our network."
"One of the most valuable features is the alerts."
"Our organization has improved because ArcSight allows multiple integrations with multiple systems which we did not do before using the product."
"This solution allows us to identify connections for all users."
"I have customers that like the EUBA functionality of it; the solution has the ability to build a session, basically, pulling a lot of information together, for example, everything a user does in a specific timeframe, which is quite helpful."
"It is user-friendly and quite simple to use."
"The UI was very clean."
"We evaluated LogRhythm and Splunk as possible options but in the end, we went with Exabeam - it was the right choice for us taking into account the needs of our customers and projected future needs."
"Overall, this is a fantastic tool and it is one of the best SIEMs that I've come across."
"The solution's automation capabilities are great."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
"The solution has great technology, it's a very user-friendly product and a very comprehensive technology, the security on offer is very good, and cost-wise, compared to other technology, it's affordable."
 

Cons

"Their support team could be better. They've gone downhill since their product has been acquired."
"You can use this solution for limited use cases. But for more advanced use cases, there are other solutions which are better than ArcSight."
"Currently, there are no compatible connectors for this solution, which means we have to depend on FlexConnectors."
"Inactive connections from servers, which are upgraded or downgraded within a VM, should be automatically revoked."
"This is not a solution that I would recommend."
"There is a GUI, but it is not complete and lacks functionality that needs to be performed using the console."
"The reporting and the way it is worded needs to be improved in future releases. The dashboards are quite poorly designed."
"The customer service could be improved, and additional integrations with other APIs could be added."
"Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful. Currently, they only have SOC 2."
"They should provide detailed information about detecting phishing emails."
"Exabeam's integration capabilities are not good, as Exabeam has a very limited number of integrations and no out-of-box integration, which is an area where Exabeam should improve."
"I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product."
"We had a large volume right from the beginning and they weren't quite prepared for that. That's something that they should think about when it comes to customers that have a large volume to start off with."
"Exabeam needs to improve its documentation and provide more customization for dashboards and case management."
"Exabeam's reporting dashboard could have included a filtering option to filter by the most recent detection."
"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The monthly licensing fee is around $20,000. There aren't any costs in addition to the standard licensing fee."
"My customers pay a yearly licensing fee for ArcSight Analytics."
"It can range between $30,000 and $40,000 USD, and can go up to $500,000 and $600,000 USD."
"ArcSight Analytics is a bit expensive compared with other tools in terms of licensing costs, training, hardware implementation, and support."
"In addition to the costs of standard licensing fees, there is the cost of labor for maintenance."
"This solution is expensive."
"They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
"Exabeam is not a cheap solution."
"There is an annual license required to use Exabeam Fusion SIEM. The price of the solution should be reduced."
"The solution is expensive."
"The platform is not extremely expensive compared to its direct competitors; I would rate its pricing around six out of ten."
