We performed a comparison between Secureworks Taegis XDR and Wazuh based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Extended Detection and Response (XDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Microsoft 365 Defender is simple to upgrade."
"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 product integrates security into one tool instead of having third-party security tools."
"Within advanced threat hunting, the tables that have already been defined by Microsoft are helpful. In the advanced threat hunting tab, there were different tables, and one of the tables was related to device info, device alert, and device events. That was very helpful. Another feature that I liked but didn't have access to was deep analysis."
"I like that it's stable. It's been stable for a long time, and Microsoft Defender has done a good job there."
"We can use Defender to block and monitor for security purposes without needing multiple other products to do different tasks."
"The ability to isolate and address viruses is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Defender XDR."
"It's a great threat intelligence source for us, providing alerts for things it detects on the network and on the machines. We've used it often when there is a potential incident to see what was done on a computer. That works quite nicely because you can see everything that the user has done..."
"It's a complete solution package."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Its cost-effectiveness is the most valuable aspect."
"My company implemented Wazuh because it was relatively inexpensive. They could quickly get their hands on it to check a box for some audit and compliance."
"It is excellent in terms of visualization and indexing services, making it a powerful tool for malware detection."
"It offers built-in modules for file integrity and vulnerability management."
"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."
"Wazuh's logging features integrate seamlessly with AWS cloud-native services. There are also Wazuh agent configurations for different use cases, like vulnerability scanning, host-based intrusion detection, and file integrity monitoring."
"Wazuh's most beneficial features for our security needs are flexibility, built-in rules, integration capabilities, and documentation."
"Integrates with various open-source and paid products, allowing for flexibility in customization based on use cases."
"This solution could be improved if it included features such as those offered by Malwarebytes."
"I personally have not seen much evidence of how Defender can enhance the story of zero trust for enterprises."
"What could be improved in Microsoft 365 Defender is its licensing, e.g. it should be more consolidated and would be good if it has some optimizations. Improving the alerts and notifications, in terms of adding more details, would also be good for this solution."
"There could be a way to proactively monitor unusual activity ."
"The capability to not only thwart attacks but also to adapt to evolving threats is crucial."
"Customers say they want absolutely seamless integration between other Microsoft solutions and Defender XDR, including the ability to change device settings within the Defender portal. They need to contact the IT team responsible for the device management tools to change some settings. They would prefer that those changes be initiated directly from the Defender portal or applied from Intune without involving the IT operations team."
"In the beginning, it's difficult to navigate the system because it is quite large. Just trying to find your way and understand how the system works can be hard. After spending quite a lot of time searching it's a lot easier, but I wish it were a bit more user-friendly when you're trying to find things."
"The management and automation of the cloud apps have room for improvement."
"The pricing could be improved."
"We found limitations in the XDR's detections, lacking the ability to create customized detection and log parsing rules."
"I think that the next release should be more suitable for large enterprises, because currently they are not because large companies do not rely on open source solutions."
"A more structured approach, perhaps with modular UI components, to facilitate easier integration and navigation within the Wazuh platform for custom integrations would be beneficial."
"Alerts should be specific rather than repeatedly triggered by integrating multiple factors. This issue needs improvement to create a more efficient alert system."
"The deployment is a bit complex."
"Its configuration process is time-consuming."
"Adding the flexibility to integrate various plug-ins or modules into its core system would enhance functionality."
"The tool does not provide CTI to monitor darknet."
"They could include flexibility and customization capabilities by modifying for customers based on partner agreements."
