We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Sentinel pricing is good""Microsoft Sentinel enables you to ingest data from the entire ecosystem and that connection of data helps you to monitor critical resources and to know what's happening in the environment.""The machine learning and artificial intelligence on offer are great.""The AI and ML of Azure Sentinel are valuable. We can use machine learning models at the tenant level and within Office 365 and Microsoft stack. We don't need to depend upon any other connectors. It automatically provisions the native Microsoft products.""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.""Sentinel is a Microsoft product, so they provide very robust use cases and analytic groups, which are very beneficial for the security team. I also like the ability to integrate data sources into the software for on-premise and cloud-based solutions.""I like the unified security console. You can close incidents using Sentinel in all other Microsoft Security portals, when it comes to incident response.""The SOAR playbooks are Sentinel's most valuable feature. It gives you a unified toolset for detecting, investigating, and responding to incidents. That's what clearly differentiates Sentinels from its competitors. It's cloud-native, offering end-to-end coverage with more than 120 connectors. All types of data logs can be poured into the system so analysis can happen. That end-to-end visibility gives it the advantage."

More Microsoft Sentinel Pros →

"The initial setup is straightforward.""A non-tech person can easily get used to it.""The solution offers very good convenience filtering.""The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces.""The solution is easy to use and to start with.""Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."

More Coralogix Pros →

"This solution helps us increase our productivity.""From the class that I took this week, being able to create notable events from whatever you find in the data set is pretty useful.""The stock analysts and security people use one single dashboard (one single location) to check our logs.""The correlation searches (properly configured) populate the Incident Management dashboard and provide me a quick birds-eye view of my most important concerns.""Easy to deploy and simple to use.""Great platform with user-friendly interface and GUI.""Compared to IBM QRadar, Splunk Enterprise Security offers faster alert resolution.""There are quite a lot of things that we find useful. Splunk agents are useful and good. Its UI is quite impressive."

Cons
"At the network level, there is a limitation in integrating some of the switches or routers with Microsoft Sentinel. Currently, SPAN traffic monitoring is not available in Microsoft Sentinel. I have heard that it is available in Defender for Identity, which is a different product. It would be good if LAN traffic monitoring or SPAN traffic monitoring is available in Microsoft Sentinel. It would add a lot of value. It is available in some of the competitor products in the market.""If Azure Sentinel had the ability to ingest Azure services from different tenants into another tenant that was hosting Azure Sentinel, and not lose any metadata, that would be a huge benefit to a lot of companies.""There is room for improvement in entity behavior and the integration site.""The KQL query does not function effectively with Windows 11 machines, and in the majority of machine-based investigations, KQL queries are essential for organizing the data during investigations.""The only thing is sometimes you can have a false positive.""I think the number one area of improvement for Sentinel would be the cost.""Sentinel's reporting is complex and can be more user-friendly.""The dashboards can be improved. Creating dashboards is very easy, but the visualizations are not as good as Microsoft Power BI. People who are using Microsoft Power BI do not like Sentinel's dashboards."

More Microsoft Sentinel Cons →

"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers.""The documentation of the tool could be improved""It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription.""The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory.""We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change.""Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."

More Coralogix Cons →

"Splunk could enhance its services by providing more comprehensive professional assistance aimed at optimizing our investment.""Splunk is query-based, which is not the case with most cybersecurity tools. It is based on search queries and can be difficult to use. It would be good if they can make it easier to understand how to create search queries. They can improve the knowledge base for better understanding. To create your dashboard, you need to have a search query. We have multiple firewalls in our company, and we need a dashboard for them. It would be helpful if a default firewall dashboard is included in Splunk to make monitoring easier. If a dashboard is available for a security device, the operation part will be more efficient. We won't have to follow a manual process for this.""Integrating tools and creating use cases could be easier. It's hard for a junior security engineer with only a couple of years of experience to write use cases. They can do it, but it's much easier in a solution like IBM QRadar. Setting conditions is like a multiple-choice type of thing. It's a more user-friendly process.""It needs more thoroughly tested releases. Every new big version (6, 7, etc.) has had so many bugs that it makes me wary of customers upgrading right away.""Better directions on search head clusters."". Having a trial version or more training on Splunk would be helpful.""It's costly.""The glass table feature does not perform as expected."

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 →

  • "We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
  • "The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
  • "The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
  • More Coralogix Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing and licensing is quite expensive. But for the value the product provides, it seems at par in the market."
  • "Although Splunk is an expensive product, it is designed to be utilized across your organization in order to maximize your ROI and lower your TCO."
  • "It is not cheap."
  • "Splunk Enterprise becomes extremely expensive after the 20GB/month license."
  • "You will eat up whatever you purchase quickly. The level of insights that Splunk empowers is addictive."
  • "Splunk licensing model might seem expensive but with all the gain in functionalities you will have compared to traditional SIEM solutions I think it’s worth the price."
  • "Pricing is pretty fair."
  • "While licensing can be a concern, there are ways to reduce the licensing costs including filtering some events."
