"RSA Netwitness SIEM leaves alot to be desired"

1/5

What do you like best about NetWitness Platform?

I like the birds eye superficial view of the data because its easy to drill in to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetWitness Platform?

Even though all software has its share of bugs the bugs in this SIEM make it basically unusable since I can get different results than another collegue of mines which makes the data unreliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering NetWitness Platform:

I would recommend that you go with either Splunk, Securonix or QRader from IBM. These seem to be the top performers in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NetWitness Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the problem of getting logs from our high value targets to a centralized location for easy consumption and analysis. It also allows us to correlate activity from multiple data sources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
