We performed a comparison between Exabeam Fusion SIEM and Splunk SOAR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Security Orchestration Automation and Response (SOAR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"The solution has features that helped improve the security posture of our clients. It provides the ability to correlate a large variety of log sources very cost-effectively, especially for Microsoft sources."
"Azure Application Gateway makes things a lot easier. You can create dashboards, alert rules, hunting and custom queries, and functions with it."
"One of the most valuable features of Microsoft Sentinel is that it's cloud-based."
"It's easy to use. It's a very good product. It can easily ingest data from anywhere. It has an easily understandable language to perform actions."
"The best feature is that onboarding to the SIM solution is quite easy. If you are using cloud-based solutions, it's just a few clicks to migrate it."
"Sentinel pricing is good"
"The automation rules and playbooks are the most useful that I've seen. A number of other places segregate the automation and playbook as separate tools, whereas Microsoft is a SIEM and SOAR tool in one."
"Mainly, this is a cloud-native product. So, there are zero concerns about managing the whole infrastructure on-premises."
"The solution's initial setup process is easy."
"The setup is not difficult. It was easy."
"The most valuable feature of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is the easy-to-use user interface."
"Exabeam Fusion SIEM has a good performance and more advantages than traditional solutions."
"Timeline based analysis; good platform support"
"The way it can connect with AWS is very useful, and the integrations are pretty good."
"It's a very user-friendly product and it's a very comprehensive technology."
"The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior."
"I like the way Splunk interacts with various systems via the API. The ability to integrate Splunk with our ticketing system has been an immense help because we can maintain our workflow while blending Splunk with our support desk and other ways that we track work."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk SOAR is the automated playbooks, which saves analysts time."
"Very flexible integration with other tools"
"I'm just a beginner on the solution and it's pretty easy for me to use."
"Splunk SOAR's quick response to incidents is the most valuable part."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk SOAR that stands out is it has a great SOAR. The automation and orchestration module is highly mature. A lot of use cases are on user entity and behavioral analytics (UEBA), which is artificial intelligence and machine learning-based (AIML)."
"My understanding is the initial setup isn't too hard."
"So far, the interface is very easy to use."
"Given that I am in the small business space, I wish they would make it easier to operate Sentinel without being a Sentinel expert. Examples of things that could be easier are creating alerts and automations from scratch and designing workbooks."
"The solution could improve the playbooks."
"The interface could be more user-friendly. It''s a small improvement that they could make if they wanted to."
"In terms of features I would like to see in future releases, I'm interested in a few more use cases around automation. I do believe a lot of automation is available, and more is in progress, but that would be my area of interest."
"The reporting could be more structured."
"When it comes to ingesting Azure native log sources, some of the log sources are specific to the subscription, and it is not always very clear."
"The following would be a challenge for any product in the market, but we have some in-house apps in our environment... our apps were built with different parameters and the APIs for them are not present in Sentinel. We are working with Microsoft to build those custom APIs that we require. That is currently in progress."
"We do have in-built or out-of-the-box metrics that are shown on the dashboard, but it doesn't give the kind of metrics that we need from our environment whereby we need to check the meantime to detect and meantime to resolve an incident. I have to do it manually. I have to pull all the logs or all the alerts that are fed into Sentinel over a certain period. We do this on a monthly basis, so I go into Microsoft Sentinel and pull all the alerts or incidents we closed over a period of thirty days."
"Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful."
"The initial setup of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is complex because it needs to integrate with the SIEM solution, but after this is complete it is straightforward."
"The only problem is that the UI is not very impressive."
"We had a large volume right from the beginning and they weren't quite prepared for that. That's something that they should think about when it comes to customers that have a large volume to start off with."
"The organzation is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate"
"We still have questions surrounding hardware deployment."
"They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however."
"Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance."
"Portability is one thing that is currently lacking. The open-source product that I evaluated had portability. It would require a lot of development effort, but it will save the cost of rewriting all the playbooks."
"And most of the challenges that I have faced with the solution can be found in the documentation itself."
"The scalability could be better."
"I haven't used it fully, but based on my usage, I could not find simulation tools and features. It currently lacks simulation features, which are important for me for creating a playbook. It is also very expensive for my region."
"The Splunk SOAR platform was not designed specifically for case management which is why this area needs improvement."
"The technical support for the Splunk SIEM solution was average."
"The pricing could be a bit more reasonable. It would be great if it were feasible for smaller organizations."
"Splunk SOAR should improve its ease of upgrade, which is a pain point for us right now."
