We performed a comparison between Microsoft Entra Permissions Management and Microsoft Sentinel based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft and others in Microsoft Security Suite."Multifactor authentication is valuable."
"The features that stand out are the detection engine and its integration with multiple data sources."
"Free ingestion for Azure logs (with E5 licence)"
"Sentinel is a SIEM and SOAR tool, so its automation is the best feature; we can reduce human interaction, freeing up our human resources."
"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 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."
"We are able to deploy within half an hour and we only require one person to complete the implementation."
"The UI-based analytics are excellent."
"The machine learning and artificial intelligence on offer are great."
"We use a third-party API called Nebula API to integrate the account for authorization. The time-bound access area in Entra can be a problem. It can be improved in terms of the granularity of the permissions."
"The solution could improve the playbooks."
"We've seen delays in getting the logs from third-party solutions and sometimes Microsoft products as well. It would be helpful if Microsoft created a list of the delays. That would make things more transparent for customers."
"We do see continuous improvement all the time, however, I haven't got a specific feature that is lacking or not well designed."
"We are invoiced according to the amount of data generated within each log."
"They could use some kind of workbook. There is some limitation doing the editing and creating the workbook."
"We have been working with multiple customers, and every time we onboard a customer, we are missing an essential feature that surprisingly doesn't exist in Sentinel. We searched the forums and knowledge bases but couldn't find a solution. When you onboard new customers, you need to enable the data connectors. That part is easy, but you must create rules from scratch for every associated connector. You click "next," "next," "next," and it requires five clicks for each analytical rule. Imagine we have a customer with 150 rules."
"We'd like to see more connectors."
"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."
