It is well suited in environments where there is a high mail traffic to handle. [Cofense] Vision basically journals the exchange server and keeps a copy of the mail received in the environment. Really beneficial to revoke and quarantine the mail reported by one user, but footprint is there in other mailboxes as well. Less appropriate in the cases where there is no proper segregation of duties within the organization. As it is possible to see contents of the mail. Only authorized personnel should be able to use it.

In the current lot of hundreds of SIEM solutions out there in the market, ArcSight ESM is fairly less expensive with strong fundamentals in place. The log ingestion, correlation are very well performing and totally worth ROI. However, the tool has lost its way when it comes to staying abreast with current feature curve of SIEM technology and the evolution has not been done by MicroFocus. Search times are high and there is no major plug-in that has been introduced as part of the product life cycle.

Cons
Cofense
  • Its cost can be somewhat high when it comes to a small business, so it is perfectly suited to medium or large companies.
  • It can throw problems when it comes to migrating said tool in the different versions of an email.
  • Its configuration is simple, but it is important to fully understand its operation to give adequate responses to possible threats.
  • It would be ideal if it could be integrated with your platform.

  • Even though integration is good but not complete yet as there are a lot of new popular apps which Arcsight can't integrate with natively.
  • UI can be improved.

Overall, it is a good investment in order for an organization to stay compliant and stay secure from all the wild things happening. It is definitely a cost effective tool with some good features including correlation, log storage, reporting and dashboards. If a customer is looking for advanced set of features, then I would highly not recommend this.

I personally haven't reached the support team, however, the engineers never complained about the Arcsight support team. We had some issues with the tool in the past but every time we reached the support, all issues were resolved in a timely manner.

Apple of Discord is the pricing as we were looking for an email security tool in reasonable pricing and Barracuda was undoubtedly efficient in action and was compatible with our business but it was highly expensive and then we made up our mind for another tool and Cofense Vision was offering almost the same as Barracuda but cheaper.

ArcSight Intelligence easily provides visibility to understand the logs and monitor the different devices .have features to manage multiple client with asingle console.searching is little bit hectic but we can mange these thing while using its filter creation process. It costs low comparing to any other SIEM tool and nearly scan satisfied any clients requirements.
