Find out what your peers are saying about CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Wazuh and others in Extended Detection and Response (XDR)."I like the easy integration and advanced possibilities. We can implement it at customer sites in a few clicks, but we can also dive deep and drill down to extended features. There's a very good starting point to get into this product and all the features from Defender."
"The advantage of Microsoft Defender XDR has over other XDRs in the market is that it's easy to use. You can quickly differentiate between alerts, incidents, devices, software, etc. It's easier to investigate an incident, and you have so many options. You can automate investigations and use playbooks. There's also the live response session, which is something you can't find in any other XDR."
"The most valuable feature of all is the full integration with the rest of the software in the operating system and Office 365, as well as Microsoft SCCM. It is quite easy for us to work with the whole instance of Microsoft products. This integration improves the benefits of the whole suite of products."
"The integration, visibility, vulnerability management, and device identification are valuable."
"Setting up Microsoft 365 Defender is easy. It's a user-friendly solution that provides threat protection. It has good stability and scalability."
"The comprehensiveness of Microsoft's threat detection is good."
"All of the security components are valuable including, antiphishing, antispam, and stage three antivirus."
"The product integrates security into one tool instead of having third-party security tools."
"The solution is easy to use."
"It's very easy to integrate Wazuh with other environments, cloud applications, and on-prem applications. So, the advantage is that it's easy to implement and integrate with other solutions."
"Some of the strengths of Wazuh that stand out for us include its scalability when deployed on Azure, its open-source nature, which allows for customization based on our needs, and its compatibility with various security solutions like threat intelligence platforms."
"The product’s interface is intuitive."
"We use it to find any aberration in our endpoint devices. For example, if someone installs a game on their company laptop, Wazuh will detect it and inform us of the unauthorized software or unintended use of the devices provided by the company."
"One of the most beneficial features of Wazuh, particularly in the context of security needs, is the machine learning data handling capability."
"Wazuh has very flexible and robust features."
"The log monitoring and analysis tools are great in addition to SIEM file activity monitoring."
"It offers built-in modules for file integrity and vulnerability management."
"The design of the user interface could use some work. Sometimes it's hard to find the exact information you need."
"The user interface of Microsoft 365 Defender could improve. They could make it simpler."
"Microsoft tends to provide too many features, which makes the solution prone to bugs."
"A simple dashboard without having to use MS Sentinel would be a welcome improvement."
"The interface could be improved. For example, if you want to do a phishing simulation for your employees, it can take a while to figure out what to do. The interface is a bit messy and could be updated. It isn't too bad, but doing some things can be a long process."
"The cost can be high if you want to build custom license packages. Another area for improvement is the policies. In Azure, we need to implement policies in JSON format, but in 365 Defender 365, it would be helpful to use a different format so we can customize the platform."
"Generally, antivirus products provide a central control to manage every device in terms of who is installing it or who is trying to disable it, but Microsoft doesn't have such a control center for the antivirus product it provides."
"I'd like to see a wider solution that includes not only desktop devices but also other devices, such as servers, storage cabinets, switching equipment, et cetera."
"The solution could improve how it scours each website."
"While it is scalable, it can suffer from reduced latencies."
"We would like to see more improvements on the cloud."
"The computing resources are consuming and do not make sense."
"I have yet to find the same capability in Wazuh to get logs from different sources into the system"
"A lack of certain features creates limitations."
"Wazuh should come up with more in-built rules and integrations for the cloud."
"Integration with Vyara could be better."
"Its user interface for sure can be improved. It is not so comfortable to use if you're looking for specific logs."
