What do you like best about Alert Logic MDR?

We've been using AlertLogic for a few years now and it works as expected. Using the Log agents, it collects and analyzes the logs and notifies us anytime there is a critical change. In addition, the reports and compliance checks are definitely an added bonus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alert Logic MDR?

I feel configuring it the first time is a challenge. It has a wide variety of features and can get overwhelming fast. However, with the help of support and onboarding help, the process is easily avoided. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alert Logic MDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Log analzing and management. Having a single pane to look through the logs makes the log monitoring job easier. In addition, being able to run vunlnerability scans to better secure the environment is an added benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alert Logic MDR?

I like the ease of use, adding AWS accounts is easy. Reports are clear and easy to understand. Deploying new sensors and agents is easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alert Logic MDR?

Agents can present troubles at moments. The UI for adding external vulnerability targets is extremely dificult to maintain (No option to upload a CSV file with the targets, so I had to use the API and create a custom process to do it)

The Integrity Detection Platform does not work. It notifies that a file or property has been changed, but does not show the previous value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alert Logic MDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

Consolidation of logs from different platforms, correlation, vulnerability scanning. Having one solution to do that is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Alert Logic MDR?

The Alert Logic MDR brings tremendous value to our small security team giving us 24/7/365 coverage for security alerting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside is that we had was introducing another portal we had to log into to get the security alerts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Alert Logic MDR solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were using the embedded MDR within our Cloud provider and self-managing that. We also did not have staffing 24/7 to monitor. The Alert Logic MDR solved for this at a cost that was well below adding additonal staff and training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Product Marketing of Alert Logic MDR

John, we really appreciate your transparent feedback. We're so glad your security team is benefitting. Thank you for the review.
