Advanced threat detection has improved investigations but complexity and resource use need refinement
LogRhythm SIEM could learn from Wazuh, as Wazuh has a built-in mechanism that allows you to write custom scripting and scripts through languages that Wazuh can then trigger, which is somewhat better and more matured in Wazuh compared to LogRhythm SIEM. Additionally, the parsers that I write for LogRhythm SIEM tend to get quite complex for log parsing, while with Wazuh, I can achieve a similar parser with much less complexity. Those are some of the pain points that some of our customers have been expressing. If LogRhythm SIEM could make a lightweight version of their solution, that would be quite competitive because some of my customers have a very large need but refuse to go with LogRhythm SIEM due to its complexity and high resource intensity. Therefore, they have been moved to Wazuh, which I am deploying for them. Even though LogRhythm SIEM has extremely good capabilities, their resource utilization is too heavy for certain customers, so if they could make a separate, lightweight version, that would be quite beneficial.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable part of the solution is being to view all of the logs whenever you want."
"As far as technical support, professional support, and overall organizational support, LogRhythm has probably been one of the best companies that I have worked with since I have been in technology."
"What LogRhythm really excels at is its stability, since, in all the deployments that I have been involved in, there's no break-and-fix at all."
"NextGen SIEM's best feature is how it presents logs."
"LogRhythm SIEM's automated response capabilities help organizations mitigate threats through alerts based on specific use cases and monitoring requirements."
"It has been the easiest SIEM platform that I have worked with or seen in production."
"Hands down, one of the best security platforms I've seen, easy to use, easy to scale, with huge visibility into your network so you just see everything and you see it easily."
"I would recommend NextGen SIEM to other users as it is a leading solution with new features at a better price than competitors like Splunk and QRadar."
"The security level that they are maintaining with the pre-authentication keys is very good."
"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
 

Cons

"Then, there is whole mention of hot versus warm and being able to keep data because SecondLook is terrible."
"Scalability is not great, at the moment."
"Retrieving logs that have been archived can be a difficult and time consuming process."
"One of the challenges of the SIEM for the LogRhythm 7 platform is the amount of time it takes to bring new log sources into the MDI."
"The reporting aspect is difficult to use and very difficult to get your own reports."
"What still needs improvement is automation. The SmartResponse obviously does not use open APIs at the moment, so we're having a lot of problems connecting it with things like Palo Alto Traps and some other systems, things like Cisco."
"My biggest issue - I know that they say they're doing it - is that the API-building is extremely important. They keep saying it's coming, it's coming. It's not coming fast enough. I don't care if they need to double their team size to get it out there quicker, the world is already in the cloud and we can't monitor it. That's a big problem for us. My boss keeps coming to me about it. That's an issue."
"The Web Dashboard UI maybe can improve more to indicate some of what Splunk is doing, because I also compare with other SIEM products."
"The solution could improve by providing better documentation for beginners to learn, such as videos or other tutorials."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license cost is around $10 per MPS."
"I would recommend talking to the rep. That's the biggest thing because they will know what questions to ask."
"If you don't have your staff, absolutely look into the co-pilot and factor that into your cost evaluation."
"Look closely at the cost of licensing of other products. This should include setups and the need for support services. I did a RFQ to 2 other vendors before choosing this product."
"On a scale of one to ten, I'd rate the pricing of this solution as a seven - not too expensive but not cheap either. Regarding licensing costs, it varies depending on factors like being a partner or an end user, but there are no additional costs aside from standard licensing fees for the basic SIEM solution."
"The nice thing about LogRhythm is you can either use the agents, getting a certain number of agents with your license depending on how you want to go, and those agents do a lot of cool things, or you can use CIS Log host, then you have like an unlimited number of them."
"In comparison to the competition, they are more affordable. This allows us to do more with less."
"We did a five-year agreement. We pay close to a quarter of a million dollars for our solution."
"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
