    Blumira is great for a small IT team in a small to medium sized environment. It gives you unlimited logging (no limit on the number of logs sent) and doesn't require advanced knowledge or expertise in SIEMs to get the system up and running.

    Licensing is incredibly easy to renew - and to adjust based on usage. The interface of cloud-based management is fantastic and easy to navigate as well. Syncs up with Active Directory to get users/security groups and such for easily differentiating policies to various users. Being able to pinpoint exactly where a threat infiltrated a system (what it talked to once it did so) is a massive feature in responding to online threats. Depending on deployment size - the cost could be an issue for some smaller organizations.

    Support is generally great, however, they can be a bit more flexible and faster to respond. Considering I have purchased a few hundred licenses, I think my support desk deserves to be at least able to schedule calls with the support, which is not always the case. Apart from that, they are always helpful, knowledgeable and have, so far, resolved any and all issues that we have been needing help with.

    Blumira is "right-sized" for my small organization. It is not a strain on our resources (people, system, or monetary). It gives us exactly what we needed

    • It has provided awareness and visibility of events and situations on our system that we were completely blind to before.
