  • 1.  Demo QRadar

    Posted Fri January 17, 2020 10:31 AM
    hi everyone,

    As a presales person, I have a question. How do you demo QRadar?

    We have offcourse the community edition and you can do a basic overview of the product. But wouldn't it become more interesting for a customer if you can play a reallife SOC scenario?

    That would require that you have an instance that has relevant data in it.

    Is there such an environment already existing?

    regards, Bart

    Hi Bart,

    Yes, you can go for qradar on cloud by IBM which is available for 7 Days. For Demo purpose you can have your own instance configured with some Test Logs and Events(Virtual).

    Thanks
    Robin

    Tried it. I already did a trial of QRoC in the past. Now I get a message that I only can have a paid version, so this solution does not work for me.

    Anyone with other solutions?

    Hi Bart,

    Not sure if you're selling IBM QRadar appliances, VMs on BYOD appliances, QRadar on Cloud or another variant.

    But if you're pre-sales and representing your Company, I suggest getting a $2.5k 1 year license for QRadar NFR​.

    This gives you the full version which you can have someone setup as a VM for you (or have a go if you're up for it). We run these on Lenovo P50 laptops and is reasonably usable/demo-able.

    The $2.5k would be an easy cost recovery against a Customer sale or delivery.

    Details about one year Value Packs (i.e. not for resale) are here: https://www.ibm.com/partnerworld/public/ibm-value-package

    Good Luck!

    Hi Bart,

    We do have a demo environment which all CTP's and Partners have access to through the SCS portal which now has a "Use Case App" which at the moment has ~ 12 specific use cases in addition to the ones that are running in it out of the box.  This demo environment was largerly written off by most of us as it was plagued with problems.  However Stephen has worked through the politics and gotten the resources neeed to make it work and as near as I can tell it is working well now.  There is an always on instance that can be used when a demo situation comes up last minute, you can also set up templates where a demo instance can be set up and left running for POT's and demos that might need to be customized in a specific way for a particular customer.  It has been working great!

    Kind regards,
