Exabeam

Best for Organisations where insider threat and account compromise are the priority
Watch out Establish clearly whether you are buying Exabeam or LogRhythm lineage, and its roadmap
ManageEngine Log360
- +Self-hosted with straightforward per-log-source licensing
- +Strong Active Directory auditing and prebuilt compliance reporting
