Customer Use Perspective Series Part 3: Why Choose QRadar Over Another Vendor?
Posted by Heather Howland in Retail, Security Intelligence, SIEM
Over the past two weeks, we have been covering the use case of a Q1 Labs’ customer in the retail space with a series of blog posts dissecting their experience with QRadar so far. Now that we have a better idea why using a security intelligence solution is important and how to make choosing a SIEM vendor relatively painless, lets hear from our customer on why they chose Q1 Labs’ QRadar over other vendor solutions.
For starters, here are a few:
- Ease of use and simple customization – Different parties (network team, dba, etc) were able to use QRadar with a very short learning curve: a one hour training session was more than enough. With the ability to easily customize views for each group, the unique needs of each group can be met easily with report and dashboard customization.
- Events Per Second (EPS) and scaling – Our customer needed a solution that can scale EPS based on their varying needs. As they monitor larger portions of their infrastructure with QRadar, they expect correlation to perform efficiently no matter the size of the data volume.
- Unique approach to log aggregation and event management – The combination of traditional log events and flow data give our customer a comprehensive view of their environment, enhancing their ability to detect anomalies and other suspicious activity when compared to competing solutions.
In next week’s post, we will hear about their experience setting up and deploying QRadar. But why wait for that if you can watch the whole webcast now?
