We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I like the unified security console. You can close incidents using Sentinel in all other Microsoft Security portals, when it comes to incident response.""I like the ability to run custom KQL queries. I don't know if that feature is specific to Sentinel. As far as I know, they are using technology built into Azure's Log Analytics app. Sentinel integrates with that, and we use this functionality heavily.""The most valuable feature is the onboarding of the workloads. You can see all that has been onboarded in your account on the dashboards.""It's easy to use. It's a very good product. It can easily ingest data from anywhere. It has an easily understandable language to perform actions.""The data connectors that Microsoft Sentinel provides are easy to integrate when we work with a Microsoft agent.""The most valuable features in my experience are the UEBA, LDAP, the threat scheduler, and integration with third-party straight perform like the MISP.""The initial setup is very simple and straightforward.""Sentinel's most important feature is the ability to centralize all the logs in one place. There's no need to search multiple systems for information."

"The machine learning is a good feature.""It's a robust, mature product and you can do some really complex operations and analytics.""We check a lot of logs in ArcSight Logger because we're running a massive database platform.""ArcSight's robustness is its most valuable feature.""We haven't had any crashes or bugs. It is stable.""ArcSight provides the basic information that we want.""It is one of the best products available in the market.""It's an efficient solution."

More ArcSight Logger Pros →

"We are able to diagnose problems before our customers.""Scalability has been good for our needs. We haven't run into any scaling issues in regards to size so far.""For many of our services, we use Sumo Logic to track errors and send notifications to our Slack channel, if there are issues. Then, we have our support people monitoring this, and they can react quickly.""We can integrate threat intelligence solutions into the product.""The tool has key features like operability. It will alert the admins whenever a device is onboarded.""The solution is quite stable.""It provides easy visibility. I also like the shareable queries because we share a lot across groups.""The most valuable features of Sumo Logic Security are the rules, use cases, and ease of use. Additionally, the integration is straightforward and good GUI."

Cons
"When we pass KPIs to the governance department, there's no option to provide rights to the data or dashboard to colleagues. We can use Power BI for this, but it isn't easy or convenient. They should just come up with a way to provide limited role-based access to auditing personnel""They need to work with other security vendors. For example, we replaced our email gateway with Symantec, but we couldn't collect these logs with Azure Sentinel. Instead of collecting these logs with Azure Sentinel, we are collecting them on Qradar. We couldn't do it with Sentinel, which is a problem for us.""If their UI was a bit more streamlined and easy to find when I need it, then that would be a great improvement.""The playbook development environment is not as rich as it should be. There are multiple occasions when we face problems while creating the playbook.""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.""They should integrate it with many other software-as-a-service providers and make connectors available so that you don't have to do any sort of log normalization.""We are invoiced according to the amount of data generated within each log.""When it comes to ingesting Azure native log sources, some of the log sources are specific to the subscription, and it is not always very clear."

More Microsoft Sentinel Cons →

"The product's connectors should work better and the user manuals need an update.""The speed of Logger indexing and searching for certain bugs for some queries that we provide could be improved. It can handle a huge number of logs but it can be improved.""The console in older versions is not user-friendly.""I had some latency issues for two months. I had to increase our storage capacity significantly to reduce the latency.""We find that the search and access functionality is quite slow.""It would be better if the product is cheaper.""The next release should have AI capabilities.""I would rate the technical support only 5 out of 10. The technical support is not satisfactory."

More ArcSight Logger Cons →

"If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see.""It would be nice to have an improved ability to scroll through logs within a time frame. Right now, we can search for specific errors. However, if we want to look for "before and after" within a specific time frame, it's not easy using the tool. This would be an improvement.""There are some API gaps that are missing.""It took a bit of trial and error to get it set up correctly based on everything we had to do. In the end, we had to send everything over HTTP, which was sort of a stop-gap.""Sumo Logic needs to make sure integrating solutions are seamless.""The initial setup is the most stressful, like learning how to use it.""There needs to be improvement on imported data which can be used within Sumo Logic to do more advanced queries.""The integration with multiple sources could be better."

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 →

  • "ArcSight Logger is very expensive compared to their competitors, but when we talk to the customer and explain what the features are and how we can scale, they understand. Still, ArcSight is more expensive than the competition."
  • "The pricing is quite harsh."
  • "It's not cheap at all as it's a big product and has been in the market for quite some time now."
  • "ArcSight is an expensive solution."
  • "I would rate the product a seven out of ten since it's an enterprise product."
  • "I rate the product’s pricing a seven out of ten, where one is inexpensive, and ten is expensive."
  • "Pricing is reasonable compared to similar tools on the market. They offer perpetual licenses."
  • More ArcSight Logger Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Purchasing Sumo Logic through the AWS Marketplace was a simple step."
  • "Purchasing the solution through the AWS Marketplace is very easy."
  • "We chose to go through the AWS Marketplace because it makes it a lot easier when we bill our customers. Rather than having to get multiple different sources of information then correlate a monthly bill for our customers, it is just included in the AWS usage charges."
  • "The AWS Marketplace pricing is fairly reasonable for what it does. I wouldn't call it expensive, but I wouldn't call it cheap. It is pretty good."
  • "The only limit to the scalability of the product for us is how much we are willing to pay."
  • "The price scaling comes in a bit expensive."
  • "Pricing has been cheaper than some of the competing tools, like Splunk."
  • "If we went to ELK Stack, which is open source, it would have been less costly, but it would have required more development from our side."
