Nagios Log Server vs. Snare

Nagios Log Server facilitates the ability to search all entries of logs in a quick and easy way. Beyond that, it has allowed us to configure alerts for notification when there are potential threats (may they be security threats or only application-side problems), and to filter the data for audits and compliance.

Snare provides compliance products ranging from small footprint, highly effective device, and network logging and log management tools to ID advanced infrastructure threat protection solutions. It has many valued features like activity dashboard, real-time monitoring, data import/export, dashboard creation, and many more. They all help me to improve my working skills It has been a game-changer as it saves a lot of time and I can work freely with this, and whenever I have any doubt the customer support team communicates immediately.

Nagios support is decent. Nothing bad to say about them, but nothing extraordinary too. We mostly asked them questions instead of actively asking them to change or fix things for us. The response time is OK, commonly you can get a response in the same day. You can also call, but they are available only during US office hours.

Windows Event Log doesn't have 10% of the capabilities of Nagios Log Server. No real-time alerts, no scheduling, no external plugins or APIs. Nothing. The only advantage is that it is a native Windows application.
