Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"If you know how to do KQL (kusto query language) queries, which are how you query the log data inside Sentinel, the information is pretty rich. You can get down to a good level of detail regarding event information or notifications.""Native integration with Microsoft security products or other Microsoft software is also crucial. For example, we can integrate Sentinel with Office 365 with one click. Other integrations aren't as easy. Sometimes, we have to do it manually.""The UI of Sentinel is very good and easy to use, even for beginners.""The best functionality that you can get from Azure Sentinel is the SOAR capability. So, you can estimate any type of activity, such as when an alert was triggered or an incident was found.""What is most useful, is that it has a good connection to the Microsoft ecosystem, and I think that's the key part.""Having your logs put all in one place with machine learning working on those logs is a good feature. I don't need to start thinking, "Where are my logs?" My logs are in a centralized repository, like Log Analytics, which is why you can't use Sentinel without Log Analytics. Having all those logs in one place is an advantage.""The Log analytics are useful.""One of the most valuable features of Microsoft Sentinel is that it's cloud-based."

"The "follow" feature is really good. If the user is not responding, there's an option to "follow". Just click on the button, and it will automatically trigger an email to the end user.""The solution is available over the cloud and is easy to manage.""​Integration to other security tools allows for a consolidated view of all vulnerabilities, incidents, etc. for all sorts of leverage in a single platform to assess governance risk and compliance as well as an enhanced, enriched intelligence.​""What I found most valuable in ServiceNow Security Operations is that it's very useful for any incoming vulnerability. For example, if my team finds any vulnerability on servers such as the CA and CMDB integrated with ServiceNow Security Operations, my team can make some changes. My team can map the vulnerabilities found on the CA server, make the changes required, and resolve the vulnerabilities before the system is attacked. You can avoid vulnerability attacks through ServiceNow Security Operations, so this is the best feature of the solution. ServiceNow Security Operations is beneficial mainly for vulnerability response and engagement purposes.""The most valuable aspect of working with ServiceNow is its meaningful and feature-rich product.""ServiceNow Security Operations also takes care of GRC, governance, risk and compliance, enabling it to provide risk assessment.""We refer to the setup and installation guide provided by ServiceNow. They have good documentation, which makes it easier to handle the process.""My favorite feature is the application vulnerability scanner."

More ServiceNow Security Operations Pros →

"It's a solid platform and is stable enough. It is not complicated and is easy to use.""ThreatConnect has a highly user-friendly interface.""The most valuable features are ease of use and the ability to customize it.""The product automatically generated a threat score based on the maliciousness of an IP."

Cons
"Sometimes, we are observing large ingestion delays. We expect logs within 5 minutes, but it takes about 10 to 15 minutes.""Everyone has their favorites. There is always room for improvement, and everybody will say, "I wish you could do this for me or that for me." It is a personal thing based on how you use the tool. I do not necessarily have those thoughts, and they are probably not really valuable because they are unique to the context of the user, but broadly, where it can continue to improve is by adding more connectors to more systems.""If we want to use more features, we have to pay more. There are multiple solutions on the cloud itself, but the pricing model package isn't consistent, which is confusing to clients.""I believe one of the challenges I encountered was the absence of live training sessions, even with the option to pay for them.""Sometimes, it is hard for us to estimate the costs of Microsoft Sentinel.""The playbook development environment is not as rich as it should be. There are multiple occasions when we face problems while creating the playbook.""Azure Sentinel will be directly competing with tools such as Splunk or Qradar. These are very established kinds of a product that have been around for the last seven, eight years or more.""We'd like to see more connectors."

More Microsoft Sentinel Cons →

"It is challenging for the customers to understand the processes for SecOps. It needs to be simplified.""​Process framework and best practices for ease of integration between IT and security teams via incident, problem, and change.​""It doesn't interact with things very well.""There is room for improvement in terms of developer support and documentation.""An area for improvement I observed in ServiceNow Security Operations is the need to maintain correct CMDB data because if you're unable to do this, you can't perfectly maintain the vulnerability data. CMDB data in ServiceNow Security Operations needs to be accurate. As I've been working on ServiceNow Security Operations for only seven months, I still need more time to try all its modules before I can give recommendations regarding additional features I'd like to see in the solution.""There are limitations for the third-parties that are providing the inputs. They should increase the robustness of the solution.""The product is called SecOps, but it is not security operations in terms of SIEM solutions.""We'd like customization to be easier in terms of the UI and using the dashboards."

More ServiceNow Security Operations Cons →

"It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment.""They should make it a little bit easier to generate events and share them with the community""I couldn’t get any training videos online when I was working with the tool.""Integration is an area that could use some improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It comes with a Microsoft subscription which the customer has, so they don't have to invest somewhere else."
  • "It is a consumption-based license model. bands at 100, 200, 400 GB per day etc. Azure Sentinel Pricing | Microsoft Azure"
  • "Good monthly operational cost model for the detection and response outcomes delivered, M365 logs don't count toward the limits which is a good benefit."
  • "I have had mixed feedback. At one point, I heard a client say that it sometimes seems more expensive. Most of the clients are on Office 365 or M365, and they are forced to take Azure SIEM because of the integration."
  • "It is kind of like a sliding scale. There are different tiers of pricing that go from $100 per day up to $3,500 per day. So, it just kind of depends on how much data is being stored. There can be additional costs to the standard license other than the additional data. It just kind of depends on what other services you're spinning up in Azure, or if you're using something like Azure log analytics."
  • "I am just paying for the log space with Azure Sentinel. It costs us about $2,000 a month. Most of the logs are free. We are only paying money for Azure Firewall logs because email logs or Azure AD logs are free to use for us."
  • "Sentinel is a bit expensive. If you can figure a way of configuring it to meet your needs, then you can find a way around the cost."
  • "Azure Sentinel is very costly, or at least it appears to be very costly. The costs vary based on your ingestion and your retention charges."
  • More Microsoft Sentinel Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "This product is a good value for the money."
  • "If you're going to implement it on your own, there would be internal costs. If you're going to implement it through a contractor or consultant, you have to pay for that."
  • "The solution is more expensive than BMC Remedy, the other ITSM tool available in the market."
  • "It is an expensive product."
  • More ServiceNow Security Operations Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The price of this product is in the mid-range, not too expensive, nor inexpensive."
  • "The price could be better."
  • "The tool is expensive."
