TecnetSOC vs. FortiSIEM

FortiSIEM makes sense if you have your own security team, with 24/7 shifts, that wants to operate its SIEM (a system that collects and correlates security logs): it comes with more than 2,800 correlation rules, user behavior analytics (UEBA), and MITRE ATT&CK mapping, plus inventory with automatic discovery and uptime monitoring with SLA (service level) calculation. It also works in multi-tenant mode for managed security service providers, with per-customer permissions and their own logo. TecnetSOC makes sense if you prefer that someone else run security for you: it includes 24/7 analysts in Spanish, protection on every device, email security, and operated patching, with no servers to maintain. On the same list of 50 capabilities, TecnetSOC's most complete offering covers all 50, and FortiSIEM covers 7 fully and 10 partially.

As of September 29, 2026, we did not find a list price for FortiSIEM; what it does publish is how it charges: licensing per device and events per second (EPS) or per GB per day, as a subscription or perpetual, and in its cloud you license compute and storage separately. Each licensed device comes with 10 events per second, and additional events, user behavior analytics (UEBA), advanced agents, the indicators of compromise (IOC) service, and automation are licensed separately; it has no permanent free plan, and its page offers a free trial without publishing its duration or terms. TecnetSOC charges per device with plans that stack, its Visibility plan is free for up to 10 devices, and the Response plan can be tried for 30 days in your environment.

FortiSIEM has phone support in Spanish through FortiCare, Fortinet's support, which publishes a global phone number in English and Spanish; we found no evidence of security analysts or a portal in Spanish. There is also no public evidence of executive reports in Spanish: its more than 1,300 compliance reports are technical. With TecnetSOC, TecnetOne analysts monitor, investigate, and respond 24/7, in your time zone and in native Spanish, and every morning at 7:30 a.m. you get an executive summary in business language.

If what you want is for someone to run security for you instead of operating a SIEM (a system that collects and correlates security logs), TecnetSOC is an agentic SOC (security operations center) with operations in LATAM, the US, and Europe, analysts in your time zone, and support in native Spanish. FortiSIEM is software that your team operates, and Fortinet's 24/7 SOC, FortiGuard SOCaaS, is purchased separately and operates from North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and Asia-Pacific. Other tools we compare against the same list of 50 capabilities are ManageEngine, FortiSOAR, Atera, Action1, Automox, ConnectSecure, Vicarius, Sophos, Trend Micro, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and Wazuh; confirm coverage in your country with each one.

The 24/7 analysts for FortiSIEM are purchased separately: the product doesn't include a SOC (security operations center), and Fortinet's 24/7 monitoring only comes with FortiGuard SOCaaS, a different service that publishes notification within a maximum of 15 minutes. Without that service, your team monitors, investigates, and responds around the clock, and a technical account manager (TAM) only comes with the FortiCare Advanced Support Pro contract. With TecnetSOC, TecnetOne's own analysts monitor, investigate, and respond 24/7, and for a critical incident they notify you and start the investigation within 30 minutes, as a target.

No, the FortiSIEM agent collects events, checks file integrity, and runs Osquery queries, but it doesn't block threats; for that, Fortinet sells FortiEDR as a separate product. Blocking threats in email or on the network also requires other products, such as FortiMail or FortiGate. TecnetSOC's most complete offering includes advanced protection on every device (EDR/XDR), web filtering, intrusion detection and prevention (IDS/IPS), threat detection on the internal network (NDR), and email security.

Getting FortiSIEM up and running is an implementation project: if you host it yourself, you install and maintain its components (Supervisor, Workers, and Collectors) and their storage, and in its cloud you license compute and storage separately. Afterward, your team manages its more than 2,800 rules and any detections it adds, and Fortinet trains administrators in a 15-hour course. With TecnetSOC, you install one agent and the rest deploys itself: you see your devices' activity in 2 to 4 hours (typical), with no servers to maintain or specialists to train.
