- Simplicity: Traditional SIEMs are often associated with complex onboarding and unpredictable costs. ConnectWise SIEM simplifies deployment with agent-based endpoint monitoring, SaaS and appliance integrations, and predictable per-user pricing. This reduces complexity while lowering total cost of ownership.
- SOAR-powered threat response: ConnectWise SIEM Pro goes beyond alerting by embedding security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) capabilities directly into the ConnectWise Asio® platform. Automated workflows speed remediation, close the loop with ConnectWise PSA, and empower MSPs to stop threats before they spread. Combined with endpoint isolation, ransomware defense, and attack surface reduction, ConnectWise SIEM delivers a proactive security posture that legacy SIEM tools can’t match.
Don’t just take our word for it; our partnership with Kyber Security, a leading managed security service provider (MSP+), speaks volumes. By using ConnectWise SIEM, they were able to unify views across clientele and optimize SOC functionality. This enabled them to effectively address and resolve all critical security alerts, enhancing their overall cybersecurity posture.

Scale client protection with ConnectWise SIEM
Choosing the right SIEM solution is mission-critical for MSPs aiming to stay ahead of evolving cyberthreats. In fact, the Federal Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) lists SIEM deployment among its top cybersecurity recommendations for protecting MSPs and their customers.
Why MSPs choose ConnectWise SIEM:
Traditional SIEM tools are often overwhelming and difficult to deploy, requiring extensive tuning and generating large volumes of false positives. ConnectWise SIEM removes this burden with agent-based endpoint deployment, SaaS and appliance integrations, and multi-tenant dashboards that allow MSPs to monitor all client environments from a single pane of glass. Prebuilt detection rules, integration with Microsoft 365 (one of 350+ integrations available), and environment-specific dashboards mean MSPs spend less time configuring and more time protecting clients.
Legacy SIEMs are notorious for unpredictable and high costs, often tied to data ingestion volumes. ConnectWise SIEM simplifies this with transparent, per-user pricing models that scale with client needs, not log volume. MSPs can choose between Essentials and Pro editions, with flexible retention (30 days up to seven years), ensuring they only pay for the level of protection and compliance required. This makes advanced SIEM technology accessible without enterprise-level budgets.
By combining automated log correlation, SOAR-driven remediation, and threat intelligence from the ConnectWise CRU, ConnectWise SIEM enables MSPs to detect and respond to threats faster while reducing analyst workload. Co-managed SOC services add 24/7 coverage from security experts, allowing MSPs to expand their cybersecurity offerings without hiring additional staff. The result is a more efficient team that can support more clients, reduce alert fatigue, and respond to incidents in real time.
ConnectWise SIEM unites the strength of automation, SOAR-driven response, and multi-tenant scalability with the affordability and simplicity MSPs demand. It’s the SIEM designed to grow with your business; protecting every client network without adding complexity or overhead.
