In 2016, Google’s "X", the moonshot factory, began working on a project aimed to take on cybersecurity. The belief that we could increase the speed and impact of security teams if it were much easier, faster, and more cost-effective for them to capture and analyze security-related clues from across their organizations gave birth to Chronicle, a modern cloud-native security analytics platform that later became part of Google Cloud. Like any new product, we dreamt of the day that Chronicle would add real-world value to customers' lives – so much value in fact, that security teams would want to share it with their peers. That day has come.

We are thrilled to announce that Google has been designated as a Strong Performer in the 2023 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Voice of the Customer report for Security Information Event Management (SIEM). This report synthesizes verified customer reviews on overall experience, product capabilities, and service & support relative to the market into insights for IT decision makers. We believe this is a good indicator for satisfaction with the vendor’s products in this market. Overall, our reviewers rated Google’s Chronicle SIEM a 4.8/5 star rating, with 89% saying they would recommend Chronicle SIEM based on 28 verified reviews as of January 2023. 

Here’s a glimpse at what our customers had to say:

  • "Chronicle is one of the few security platforms today that continues to innovate for security professionals, and to make their lives easier. The product has evolved greatly in the last 3 years, and continued to ask for feedback on what the platform should encompass to create easier workflows for all levels (tier 1 / 2 SOC analysts, IR, insider threat, threat hunting, etc)." - Principal Engineer, $30B+ Bank

  • "We displaced a legacy SIEM solution with Chronicle that transformed our security operations. Chronicle is the tool that is built from an analyst point of view and dramatically increased our SOC productivity. The stitching of different contexts in the platform provides an enhanced analyst experience and also enabled us to have one product that does it all - SIEM, UEBA, Insider Threat Model." - Director of Security, $500M+ Miscellaneous

  • "Chronicle is not just a SIEM, it is ready to be the data security layer that every Cyber Security Analyst would seek at for investigation capabilities and also in terms of well structured Cyber Security data models. You can feel that scalability is there from day one, you don't have to worry about it." - Head of Cyber Security Competence Center, $50M IT Services

This recognition is particularly special to us because customers drive both our motivation and innovation. So, thank you, to each customer who took the time to share their candid feedback with us. We look forward to delivering the next evolution of Chronicle, which includes building on the recent Mandiant acquisition. Together, our Chronicle Security Operations suite will provide customers with even more incident and exposure management and threat intelligence capabilities to detect, investigate and respond to threats with speed, scale and precision.
