ManageEngine -- Gets the job done!
- Data capture against a wide variety of sources (logs, events, windows, Linux systems)
- Ability to find specific events in the logs
- Basically unlimited history
- Useful dashboard (although not really once you dig into it)
- It's based on Java engine that is slow -- reports are often difficult to build (we are going to upgrade the machine it's running on to see if this is the issue)
- Keeping this software up to date is a pain; there should be a better "update" function
- The naming and navigation are terrible -- it's never clear which feature you're looking for and where it's hidden in the menus
- Adding machines is not as easy as it should be; occasionally there are IP conflicts that are nearly impossible to resolve
- User, GPO, Computer object change auditing
- AD activity tracking/auditing such as login failures
- LAPS password read auditing
- Radius logging
- Better availability of archived logs - remounting logs can be time consuming
