Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.
The floor is 11 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it
Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“The best SIEM platform for a company with a limited budget is ManageEngine Log360, as it is budget-friendly” Llama 4 Maverick · SIEM · budget prompt · first choice
“ManageEngine Log360 and Tines offer the most affordable paid options.” Claude Haiku 4.5 · SOAR · budget prompt · first choice
“I would recommend ManageEngine Log360 as the default SIEM choice” Perplexity Sonar · SIEM · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Low paid budget: ManageEngine Log360's $840/yr Professional Plan is one of the few commercial SOAR-adjacent products with a published sub-$1k annual price.” Muse Glimmer 30B · SOAR · budget prompt · alternative
And against it
Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“Support lifecycle pages such as ManageEngine Log360 also make clear that after a version reaches End of Support it will no longer receive technical support or security updates” Muse Glimmer 30B · Logs · negative prompt · soft negative
“SOAR limited to Enterprise edition (surprise costs), dated/inconsistent UI, and performance dips” Grok 4.20 · SOAR · negative prompt · soft negative
“Reviews frequently point out specific bottlenecks for growing organizations.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · SOAR · negative prompt · soft negative

A head-to-head page exists where both products are among a category's top eight. The other rows are the same fact without a page behind them, so they link to the product instead.
What carried it into the answer
The sites and pages cited by the answers that named ManageEngine Log360. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 98 of the 98 answers that named ManageEngine Log360 and are not a share of its labels.
