"Great Product, very flexible but difficult to get started"
What do you like best about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

The product is amazing in terms of what it can do, it is very flexible and powerful. Lots of features relating to alerts on potential threats. In addition the ability to package a SIEM into the same product is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

It is complicated to get started. It takes a big learning curve to get up and running. The online training is basic at best and their online courses are "In Person" so you have to sit through an entire session at one time. I don't have 5 full days to take a training class (EVER).

"Alienvault Good Choice For All Around SIEM"
What do you like best about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

Integration of security tools in one platform, I think is a differential on the market with the others SIEM's, the ease of modify and create my own plugins although is need have a deep linux knowledge.

I think the reports is very good, the solution have the templates to get information and take decisions to improve the security controls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

It's not just AV, I think all platforms in the market needs to improve the GUI to have a better manage and I think the preformance in the appliances need improve and last, more documentation or improve the KB to have a better knowledge to do troubleshooting.

"Stability of the platform"
What do you like best about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

The platform is stable in a virgin installation, has good speed, has ease of use, has good whiteboards for summary of statistics, integrates in a good way to several IDS and IPS, has a very good amount of pluing, has its free version that Is OSSIM, it is easy to install and configure, Has a friendly interface, has very good details about the events, the design is sober is professional, Everything can be handled from a click from the web interface or from the CLI that provides this gives a very large ease and maneuverability Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

The installation after its constant patching becomes unstable, the database is saturated to such a level that it comes to think that it does not have a good architecture or index relation, has very poor description of logs makes you investigate out of the tool each Code detected to make your diagnosis, has a poor information of the activity of the users, the support in the version USM they serve but they do not solve Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Alienvault Good Choice For All Around SIEM"
What do you like best about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

Alienvault was straightforward to set up and start using. Training was good and allowed us to immediately customize the product to our needs. Support has been good when needed. This product gives us much more insight as to what is happening on our network than we had previously. The included scanner is good and allowed us to cancel our subscription with another vendor for the service. Alienvault is a product that works well for businesses that do not have a dedicated security staff since it is pretty straightforward to get up and running and to manage. Asset discovery is fair, OS is typically incorrectly identified though. Support is typically pretty good, fairly quick to respond and provide a solution to the reported issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

Data organization could be better. Need to be able to sort scan results on the vulnerability for example. I currently rely on a system built in-house that I then export scan data from Alienvault and input into this system in order to then view in a more readable format. Vulnerabilities within USM itself have been identified but not yet corrected. For being a security product, you expect this to be addressed quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Industry Tools from the College Classroom to the Field"
What do you like best about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

The executive dashboards give an immediate presence when displayed in the classroom environment on a big screen television as a dashboard. Students become inquisitive to learn what a product like USM or SIEM is, as buzz words become alive to touch an actual product. It is one thing to read about a Unified Security Manager (USM), or a Security Incident Event Manager (SIEM), but to actually visually see in a production environment and use it is another story. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LevelBlue USM Anywhere?

There is a huge learning curve to understand the product. False positives provide a means for the students to do adequate research on a particular event and determine if what actually happened in the environment did indeed happen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you Philip for your comments!
