### "A \*perfect\* but not only real-time eventlog monitoring tool" — 5.0/5

> **Knut Kristan** | *22 December 2022* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We were analysing the capabilities of a dozen other produts. Nearly none of them is as capable as this. One competitor we used the last 15 years was quite good. But they decided not to follow the path into the cloud. With corner bowl our Azure AD audit-logs, sign-ins and risk events are as easy to control as our on premises active directory events.
> 
> **Cons**: This software a completely modular. To an extent you would not have expected. This gives numerous options to achieve the goal. Some pathways are better, there is not a single way to built a solution. We had to find out what works best for us. And we had some redesign of the hierarchies of rules and so on we built. It is not totally easy to understand. (But that should be obvious because of the dramatic functional possibilities\!)
> 
> We use this tool the the maximum. We had about let´s say 100 hours to understand completey the architecture and possibilities provided. This tool can be as complex as the questions you want to drill down with. It can analyse the most complex situations - but \*then\* you need the know-how (or just let you help). As we want to develop this tool ourselves, it was not a kind of "make it work for us and finish". It was like a "program these functions missing also into it", so that it gets even more capable. We are under permanent development as there are new alerts to be made visible with nearly every month. Different behaviour in NTLM, Kerberos, LDAPS, ... ... ... gives us the need to find legacy systems running into problems.

### "Simple software with a good amount of features, great price and gets the job done" — 5.0/5

> **Paul** | *27 July 2020* | Defense & Space | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The product is as close to plug and play as you can get for a log management software.  Some built-in filters get you started and making your own is pretty simple.  This software is made for small businesses and small environments.  I use it for collecting logs from a few systems and applications then spit out a report for me weekly.  It assist me with meeting compliance requirements without the big cost and infrastructure to make it happen.  I like how it can help with other features, such as processor utilization, disk drive space and setting up a near-real-time monitor for functions (account lockout, services stopped)
> 
> **Cons**: If you are looking for something comparable to Splunk or Alienvault OSSIM, this is not it.  This software will help you grab logs, parse through it (based on what you want it to look for) and generate a simple report for you.  If you need to parse through large amounts of data (6-12 months) and correlate them with each other, it will be a little more work for you and it will take a bit more time.
> 
> I have been using this for the past 8-10 years (I don't remember when I first started using it) and it has been a lifesaver for me and my customers.  No budget, no infrastructure,  no technical experience then no problem.  I didn't even read instructions when I started using it, just clicking around and looking at what the product does with the built in templates got me going.
