We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiSOAR and Swimlane 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."Sentinel is a SIEM and SOAR tool, so its automation is the best feature; we can reduce human interaction, freeing up our human resources."
"The most valuable feature is the onboarding of the workloads. You can see all that has been onboarded in your account on the dashboards."
"The Log analytics are useful."
"Investigations are something really remarkable. We can drill down right to the raw logs by running different queries and getting those on the console itself."
"The native integration of the Microsoft security solution has been essential because it helps reduce some false positives, especially with some of the impossible travel rules that may be configured in Microsoft 365. For some organizations, that might be benign because they're using VPNs, etc."
"I like the KQL query. It simplifies getting data from the table and seeing the logs. All you need to know are the table names. It's quite easy to build use cases by using KQL."
"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."
"Sentinel has features that have helped improve our security poster. It helped us in going ahead and identifying the gaps via analysis and focusing on the key elements."
"It has a quick detection and response time."
"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiSOAR is the playbook, which has to be defined to apply the policies."
"It is a scalable solution...The implementation phase of the product was not tough or difficult."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"We use the product for security."
"The good news is that FortiSOAR is not hard to maintain. If you prepared well and deployed strong initially, then maintenance will take half an hour every other week, not more than that. A single person can do it."
"It's great that the solution is integrated with FortiAnalyzer."
"The product can be automated for network security purposes. The solution offers a great security automation response."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the support."
"It provides us with a single portal for our logs from different solutions."
"The technical support from Swimlane is very good."
"Add more out-of-the-box connectors with other SaaS platforms/applications."
"It has been a challenge with Azure Sentinel to onboard the Syslog server from FortiGate. Azure Sentinel can work better on that shift between the Syslog server and a firewall."
"We'd like to see more connectors."
"Sentinel could improve its ticketing and management. A few customers I have worked with liked to take the data created in Sentinel. You can make some basic efforts around that, but the customers wanted to push it to a third-party system so they could set up a proper ticketing management system, like ServiceNow, Jira, etc."
"I would like to be able to monitor applications outside of the Azure Cloud."
"I believe one of the challenges I encountered was the absence of live training sessions, even with the option to pay for them."
"They should just add more and more out-of-the-box connectors. It is quite a new product, and it has a lot of connectors, and even more would be good."
"The solution could improve the playbooks."
"The area that needs improvement is integration with multiple third-party vendors."
"The UI design of the solution needs to be changed since it can get difficult for a newbie to operate."
"I have found that Fortinet FortiSOAR needs a lot of improvement. The Orchestration needs to be improved."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR's dashboard is not easy to understand."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR should improve its analysis."
"The solution doesn't connect well with the network devices."
"I don't currently see where the solution is lacking features. For us and for our clients it works very well and we're pleased with it."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR should add more documentation for some use cases."
"The stability of the solution has room for improvement."
"We faced a lot of issues with the product’s stability."
"The initial setup and deployment are complex."
