"Powerful Tool"
4/5
What do you like best about SolarWinds Security Event Manager?

I like the amount of things you can monitor and get reports on from the LEM tool. There are multiple platforms, including virtualized that are available. The LEM puts it all in one place and you can generate reports based on events, device type, platform, etc. It makes managing connectivity and resources easier. I also went through their user training and it was painless and the instructor was very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolarWinds Security Event Manager?

At first it's not intuitive unless you monitor devices for a living. I've been in IT over 10 years but until I started using LEM I'd never had the opportunity to use a similar tool. I was a little overwhelmed by the enormousness and volume of the items you can monitor for the different types of nodes/platforms/events, especially in our large organization. However, as soon as I was able to see how quickly I could find out information about our data center, it made the benefits immediately visible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish SolarWinds would integrate it with Orion. However I know there is great difficulty in that process. This would also strain the database significantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
