LogRhythm / Exabeam
PE merger · product uncertainty · declining share
CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM
Index-free · 150× faster · Native XDR · Charlotte AI
LogRhythm and Exabeam merged under private equity ownership. Customers face product overlap, roadmap consolidation and uncertain investment levels.
Two products, one roadmap
LogRhythm and Exabeam are now under one PE owner. Customers will inevitably feel the rationalization. Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is a unified platform built security-first.
Ingestion pricing punishes visibility
Per-GB pricing forces teams to filter logs to control costs, creating dangerous blind spots.
Index architecture doesn't scale
Index-based architectures slow at scale. Falcon Next-Gen SIEM's index-free design delivers 150x faster search while processing 1PB+ daily.
Declining market share
Gartner and analyst reports show both LogRhythm and Exabeam losing share to native-cloud platforms. The merger compounds rather than reverses that trend.
No native EDR/XDR
LogRhythm and Exabeam both require third-party EDR feeds. Falcon Next-Gen SIEM is integrated with Falcon Insight XDR natively.
Proprietary detection language
Specialized detection-rule expertise is required. Falcon Next-Gen SIEM's intuitive query language plus Charlotte AI assistance means analysts are productive in days, not months.

A 7-step LogRhythm / Exabeam migration.
Zero visibility loss. Parallel-run validation. Rollback at every stage.
- 01
Discovery & Audit
Complete inventory of source data sources, saved searches, dashboards, alerts, compliance reports and custom apps. Map dependencies and identify optimization opportunities.
- 02
Architecture Design
Design target Falcon Next-Gen SIEM topology with a Falcon Onum or Cribl pipeline. Define parallel-run infrastructure, data routing and retention policies. Size for current and projected data volumes.
- 03
Pipeline Deployment
Deploy Cribl or Falcon Onum for dual-write. Data flows to both the old SIEM and Falcon Next-Gen SIEM simultaneously. No source reconfiguration required for most data types.
- 04
Detection Migration
Convert detection rules, correlation searches and scheduled reports to Falcon Next-Gen SIEM equivalents. Improve signal-to-noise ratio during conversion. Validate against historical incident data.
- 05
Parallel Run & Validation
Both SIEMs active and monitored 24/7 by the Vijilan SOC. Compare alerts, dashboard outputs and compliance reports side-by-side. Tune until output parity is confirmed.
- 06
Phased Cutover
Source-by-source cutover with rollback capability at every stage. High-priority sources first, then expand. The legacy SIEM remains accessible throughout for historical queries.
- 07
Optimization & Managed Ops
Tune detections, build new Falcon Next-Gen SIEM dashboards, enable Charlotte AI investigation workflows and transition to Vijilan 24/7 managed SOC operations.
Common questions.
What does the LogRhythm/Exabeam merger mean for customers?+
Roadmaps will consolidate. Some products will be deprecated. PE ownership means cost-out before reinvestment. Customers who want certainty on direction are evaluating alternatives now.
How long does a LogRhythm or Exabeam migration take?+
Typical migrations run 8-16 weeks with parallel-run validation, depending on the number of data sources and custom detection rules.
Can our detection rules be translated?+
Yes. The Discovery & Audit phase inventories your detection content and we convert it. Charlotte AI assists during the transition.
Will we lose visibility during the migration?+
No. Parallel-run keeps both SIEMs hot. The Vijilan SOC monitors both until cutover.
How much can we save by switching?+
Customers typically see 40-60% lower TCO through index-free pricing, native EDR/XDR consolidation and reduced data filtering.
Do we need to wait for our contract to expire?+
No. Many partners begin migration during the renewal window to avoid overlap fees by cutover date.
