I've invested a lot into my SIEM for years, thinking it would provide centralized visibility, but it feels more like an expensive data warehouse now. The only actionable alerts come from other tools I've had to manually integrate, and the correlation rules seem more like makeshift solutions than true automation. I'm looking for ways to enhance threat detection and triage without replacing the SIEM entirely. Has anyone else successfully improved their current SIEM's capabilities?

Honestly, isn't that kind of what a SIEM is for? It's meant to help you analyze and act on logs more effectively by centralizing them all. So yes, it may feel like you're just storing logs at this point.
You might want to consider outsourcing your SIEM management. There are services like Arctic Wolf that can handle it for you. It really takes the load off your shoulders if you're feeling overwhelmed.
Totally agree! Letting someone else manage it can be a game changer.
