Logsign vs. Arcsight by OpenText

Logsign SIEM is well suited for organizations that need quick deployment, and do not need very skilled specialists, everything is easy and intuitive. And with the new license model, it is a very affordable solution. It has everything that modern SOC needs nowadays, automated/semi-automated responses. There are also many plugins for the log source integration, possibilities to create custom your own plugin/logic

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.

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.
