CyberCPR vs. Arcsight by OpenText

[We use CyberCPR] for investigations on IT that are totally compromised. Using the cloud solution, you can be up and running in minutes with the advantage of being able to access the tool from anywhere on the internet. New users are onboarded quickly and can pick it up fast. It scales well from 3 users to 500 and the server load looks low.

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.

Incentivized

• Clean UI
• Easy to use
• Fast user onboarding
• Managed communications well

• Integration with smart logger and ESM to create rules and easy management of the same.
• Easy integration with all end point security management tool(IPS/IDS, Firewall, Anti-Virus) and their consolidated output at a single place to effectively rectifying true and false positives.

Incentivized

• API development has been a long time coming

• It is slow comparing to any other SIEM Tool.
• We have to create filter for each alerts need some custom filter .
• Here we dont have any single tab for see all the alerts .also need some attractive features for dashboard.

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.

It's simpler to use, doesn't cost vast sums (it's about 1/10 of the others looked at). Users like the cleaner UI and it's not complicated

Multiple platforms are already supported by Arcsight. Support is good. Scripts can be used to get data from multiple threat intel sources & the same can be used in correlation rules to detect any suspicious activity. Reporting features are good & you can check any backdated information within new clicks.

Incentivized

• It's low cost means the ROI is higher
• The security means when needed, its there and ready to be used.
• The deployment options mean you can choose one to match budget.

• Logger helps us to decrease incident response times.
• It also decreased our project times with the man/day calculations. Before this solution, it may take up to 10 men/days to do something. After this, it becomes nearly half of the time.
