LogRhythm is good for providing a comprehensive view of the environment. It gives a great outline of whatever is going on in our servers and systems regarding security malfunctions. The SIEM sends real-time notifications when there are some occurrences; like creating a new user and inappropriate login attempts. It also avails a good use case that meets our HIPAA compliance.

IBM Security QRadar
- It allows us to have visibility to potential problems both on premise and in the cloud which was key as we have become a hybrid consumer.
- It has automated monitoring which has allowed us to see threats faster and also allowed us to be proactive.
- By having over 20,000 employees, QRadar has also allowed us to be aware of internal threats that are brought into the company by unsuspecting employees.

- The LogrhythmNextGen SIEM Framework is very convenient and easy to manage, and it comes with a slew of tools and features that no other SIEM remedy can match.
- The LogrhythmNexGen SIEM System is a fantastic solution for creating a streamlined event response management process and ensuring unbreakable endpoint security.
- We can manage all of our safety mechanism logs and topologies from one location, allowing us to keep track of what's going on across the organization and what adjustments we need to take to improve security.

IBM Security QRadar
- There is a steep learning curve compared to other platforms. Qradar is incredibly powerful but does require some homework.
- There is a glaring lack of threat feed utilization outside of STIXX/TAXII which remains very limited at this time.
- May require a considerable amount of tuning during deployment with very little "out of the box" offense information.

- The LogRhyhtm NextGen SIEM Platform is good in terms of looks, but sometimes it is too sophisticated to do the simplest of tasks like, for example: counting the number of occurrences of a particular IP address in total logs for that specific day or month.
- They can provide a simple syntax bar like Splunk, for technical users who feel a syntax-based query is more powerful than just GUI.
- There can be a feature that can help you customize the amount of data to be displayed without "drill down." A lot of the time, it isn't worth waiting 10-15 seconds to find 5% extra required information that could be displayed easily before drilling down.
- It doesn't have any online community or proper documentation that has a user rating on it. A lot of the times, their documentation doesn't help us.

LogRhythm is focused on SIEM. That is their core business. Cost of operations, feature set and ease of use. The Log Rhythm support team is outstanding. Overall reliability is good. Reporting module needs some improvement and LR is promising that there will be significant improvements in future releases.

LogRhythm does a rather decent job of making the functionality advanced (allowing for advanced keyword & field searching, use of "AND" as well as "OR" statements in the search bar) while keeping it accessible (by not requiring a specific syntax to do quick searches). This combined with a user interface that has headings and labels that are intuitive is very helpful.

Provides resources for technical help, case policies, and other information for customer assistance on their support page. Their support is a global team and I can even upload diagnostics files and screen captures when opening a case with the Support Team.

While LogRhythm support is generally quick to respond, the initial response is usually from a first line support engineer with general knowledge of the product. Any advanced or complex issues have always required the assistance of a higher tier of support, directly or indirectly. For a few occasions we actually used our PS hours to work on the issue.

- Attend the end user and daily operations training after a period of usage so you are not overwhelmed with information on concepts not yet seen.
- Don't be afraid to call for help during your first months of use.
- Don't close any ticket until you are sure the expected results are verified.

IBM QRadar is way easier to deploy and use than the other SIEM tools. In literally hours you have a whole environment up and running. Also, QRadar comes with way more out-of-the-box parsers (called DSMs) than any other tool. Also, recently, QRadar released their app store, in which you can download extension packs for your QRadar, so you can easily deploy things such as User Behavior Analytics (UBA) and interactive dashboards

LogRhythm was simpler to set up and configure as well as extract information from. It also was less intrusive in terms of how many appliances were needed to implement. We were up and running within 5 hours to start accepting log sources. We selected LogRhythm as well since support is based in the USA in Colorado.

- With LogRhythm we can be completely sure that our system will be protected in its entirety since it is a SIEM tool very different from the others, it has a greater scope of short-term results and it is easy to integrate with the staff that uses it, although It is a high-cost software, the benefits are splendid, it has precise and very automatic functions to reduce the risks of threats that want to harm us.
