We performed a comparison between Microsoft Sentinel and Sumo Logic Security 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."
"We didn't have anything similar. So, it really provides value from the incidents and automation point of view. The overview of the security fabric is most valuable."
"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 AI capability is one of the main features of the solution because I believe that in the market, there are few solutions that are providing security solutions based on AI and machine learning."
"It is easy to implement (turn on) - does need a skilled analyst to develop queries and playbooks."
"It is quite efficient. It helps our clients in identifying their security issues and respond quickly. Our clients want to automate incident response and all those things."
"I've worked on most of the top SIEM solutions, and Sentinel has an edge in most areas. For example, it has built-in SOAR capabilities, allowing you to run playbooks automatically. Other vendors typically offer SOAR as a separate licensed solution or module, but you get it free with Sentinel. In-depth incident integration is available out of the box."
"What is most useful, is that it has a good connection to the Microsoft ecosystem, and I think that's the key part."
"It helps a lot because we can troubleshoot issues pretty easily."
"We can integrate threat intelligence solutions into the product."
"I have no concerns about the stability of the product. I feel it handles the stress we put on it very well."
"Sumo Logic is an easy solution to use. You can set it up very quickly, and it includes a lot of training videos."
"Support has been excellent. Sumo Logic's support staff is really good, both their account management staff and direct support."
"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."
"We can ingest logs and make reports out of them. It is a good tool which can help us monitor any issues."
"The tool has key features like operability. It will alert the admins whenever a device is onboarded."
"The data connectors for third-party tools could be improved, as some aren't available in Sentinel. They need to be available in the data connector panel."
"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."
"The AI capabilities must be improved."
"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 on-prem log sources still require a lot of development."
"It would be good to have some connectors for third-party SIEM solutions. Many customers are struggling with the integration of Azure Sentinel with their on-premise SIEM. Microsoft is changing the log structure many times a year, which can corrupt a custom integration. It would be good to have some connectors developed by Microsoft or supply vendors, but they are not providing such functionality or tools."
"Microsoft Sentinel should provide an alternative query language to KQL for users who lack KQL expertise."
"We would like the ability to drill down into a dashboard and get into deeper levels."
"From the network segmentation side, there is some discrepancy in log onboarding. The tool needs to improve direct API integrations, login integration, native login integration, etc."
"There needs to be improvement on imported data which can be used within Sumo Logic to do more advanced queries."
"Sumo Logic Security is expensive, and its pricing could be improved."
"Sumo Logic needs to make sure integrating solutions are seamless."
"The dashboard has room for improvement, because sometimes it is a difficult to create a specific dashboard or query. This would be a nice place to correct problems."
"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."
"There are some API gaps that are missing."
