Good for
- Mid-market IT or managed service providers who want rapid SIEM/XDR deployment to detect threats and get AI-written summaries to speed investigations.
- Includes an AI feature (SOC Auto-Focus) that provides plain-language summaries of security findings.
- Unlimited data ingestion with flat-rate pricing per employee to avoid data-volume cost surprises.
Keep in mind
- The platform is described as less customizable than traditional SIEMs like Splunk for in-platform query writing.
- Service agreements are contracted on an annual basis, not shown as month-to-month commitments.
- If you need to write many custom ad hoc detection queries or require highly granular in-platform query customization, confirm the product’s support for your intended custom-detection workflow before buying.
