Top Rated OSSIM (Open Source) Alternatives
The multiple layers of protection it covers under such a small thumbprint is wonderful. Not only will the software detect an intrusion, but it also detects any infractions, irregularities, or disruptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The amount of memory it uses. While you can get away with it running on a smaller RAM virtual machine, it will run extremely choppy. I am fortunate with my company that we have the resources to be able to have machines with vasts amount of memory, but it is a memory hog for sure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Performance testing on Virtual Machine is limited, selection of Virtual Machine drivers and third-party software limits me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A free central tool to pull together logs, data, information, threats, and vulnerability scans. This gives you a lot of power in one small package, especially if you are a smaller organization that does not have an excessive amount of logs and information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is a significant amount if a disjointed feel between the different portions of the application software. You can definitely tell that this product, ultimately, is a Frankenstein's monster of security tools which have been stitched together into a singular, "unified" product. If you want this product to be effective, you will need to have a staff member who is willing to learn and show initiative because your success will be limited if you are expecting things to be simple or straightforward.

Easy to start work with and very intuitive interface. We used it almost every day during the period of implementing ISO 27001. It was the best choice then. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
You have to engage the majority of your IT team because they all have to be familiar with the tools. They have to find some extra time to work with it but they probably won't like that :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing with this product is the fact you are really protected with this. You don't have to worry about intrusions and protection. It does garanty a good security for any company. The other thing I like with AlienVault OSSIM is the fact you can check the logs easily and manage your security issues. A really powerful product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I don't really like about this product is the fact this is an open source product so it's not updated automatically. The second thing I don't like is the support It takes a lot of time to get a reply. The fact It's free you don't have any help to learn how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With a good user interface, an open source SIEM to get ones feet wet in this field. one can learn basics of SIEM, without paying any costs. also has a very good vulnerability scanner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Reporting function is very limited, and no raw log feature is also not available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like most about AlienVault OSSIM is the fact that it covers many layers of the overall security vision in your company, whether at a small, medium, or enterprise level. Not only does it receive events and correlate them, it also detects the presence of new assets, strange behaviors in net flows, and has a handy asset availability manager integrated with it. You cover a lot with such a simple and straightforward integrated tool like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I really don't like about this product is that it is an open-source product, so it doesn't update automatically. The second thing I don't like is the support. It takes a long time to get a response. The fact that it is free doesn't help at all in learning how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
