“Solid WAF product. Support team was very helpful during deployment. ”

4.0
Nov 27, 2018
PRO: The Alert Logic WSM works very well for blocking web attacks (sql injection, xss...etc). The dashboard view provides a quick insight into traffic and attack patterns. There are multiple configurations in which to specify how to handle policy violations, set up proxy routing and load balancing. The support team is very knowledgeable and responsive. CON: The interface is sometimes not intuitive and can be clunky. The WAF does not scan file upload attachments for malware.

Alert Logic Managed Detection and Response (MDR) Likes & Dislikes

Like

Knowledgeable and responsive support team.

Like

The interface of the Alert Logic MDR platform is easy to understand and use. It has industry recognized basic use cases and some complex use cases configured that can be used natively.

Like

The ease of deployment and management is a perfect fit for our environment. Plus the low resource footprint on our endpoints is a huge improvement over our old, traditional Endpoint Protection solution.

Dislike

User interface is not very intuitive.

Dislike

The Alert Logic MDR platform doesn't offer the complex use cases required for threat detection and response. The integration capabilities need improvement. There isn't much support for legacy infrastructure and systems. Alert Logic will have to improve these capabilities if they are to offer stiff competition to other MDR players that are already quite established in the market.

Dislike

Barkly is a simple and easy to deploy/manage product. Along with the simplicity, is a lack of reporting and advanced EDR functionality. That being said, it's not a major concern for us, as we don't have the staff to manage a more advanced system.
