Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Security Event Manager (SEM)

We use Solar Winds Security Event Manager (SEM) across our entire organization. It enables our company to monitor and manage events and provide reporting required for PCI and ISO compliance initiatives.
  • Brings together security events from multiple system sources.
  • Allows IT to review and manage security related events.
  • Provides convenient filters/views allowing us to narrow down the data we want to see.
  • Some improvements in user documentation could be helpful.
  • SEM has enabled us to replace various manual processes for monitoring service related events, saving valuable staff time.
  • SEM gives us better, more complete views of the event data.
  • SEM enables us to meet security compliance requirements with less manpower applied.
SolarWinds Security Event Manager (SEM) is more of a complete, turn key approach to event management.
SolarWinds Security Event Manager (SEM) works well for a company our size, and we think it will enable us to grow without having to change out the system. We've also implemented Solar Winds Service Desk.
