We performed a comparison between RSA enVision and Splunk Enterprise Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Splunk, Wazuh and others in Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)."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."
"The data connectors that Microsoft Sentinel provides are easy to integrate when we work with a Microsoft agent."
"One of the most valuable features is that it creates a kind of a single pane of glass for organizations that already use Microsoft software. So, when they have things like Microsoft 365, it is very easy for them to kind of plug in or enroll those endpoints into the Azure Sentinel service."
"It is able to connect to an ever-growing number of platforms and systems within the Microsoft ecosystem, such as Azure Active Directory and Microsoft 365 or Office 365, as well as to external services and systems that can be brought in and managed. We can manage on-premises infrastructure. We can manage not just the things that are running in Azure in the public cloud, but through Azure Arc and the hybrid capabilities, we can monitor on-premises servers and endpoints. We can monitor VMware infrastructure, for instance, running as part of a hybrid environment."
"Sentinel enables us to ingest data from our entire ecosystem. In addition to integrating our Cisco ASA Firewall logs, we get our Palo Alto proxy logs and some on-premises data coming from our hardware devices... That is very important and is one way Sentinel is playing a wider role in our environment."
"The product can integrate with any device."
"It has a lot of great features."
"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 most valuable feature of this solution is the reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the management features. It's capable of managing large enterprises."
"The configuration part is very easy...The technical support was sincere in their responses...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"The Splunk user community and forum are most valuable."
"We have a more secure, robust environment, which keeps the harmful software out of the zone required."
"Being able to track impossible travel logins and things of that nature is valuable. We can track user logins from various IPs, various countries, and at various times to see if everything adds up."
"It helped us consolidate all our solutions into an easy tool to use for various employees."
"It is easy to use, and easy to implement."
"It gives me notifications of notable events."
"It can log more logs than other solutions. It's a good way to troubleshoot problems."
"Speeds up root cause analysis and can help identify issues that your organization never realized were occurring."
"If you're looking to use canned queries, the interface could be a little more straightforward. It's not immediately intuitive regarding how you use it. You have to take a canned query and paste it into an operational box and then you hit a button... They could improve the ease of deploying these queries."
"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."
"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."
"If Sentinel had a graphical user interface, it would be easier to use. I would also like it to be more customizable."
"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."
"It could have a better API to be able to automate many things more extensively and get more extensive data and more expensive deployment possibilities. It can gain some points on the automation part and the integration part. The API is very limited, and I would like to see it extended a bit more."
"We'd like also a better ticketing system, which is older."
"We are invoiced according to the amount of data generated within each log."
"RSA enVision log manager is out of date and is not in use anymore."
"The integration could be easier, it should support more products."
"In general, the solution currently isn't user-friendly."
"This is not really a monitoring solution."
"We had some connections issues with the solution at the beginning."
"There can be a bit of complexity around some fields during the initial setup."
"The presence of multiple layers creates a significant challenge for monitoring across cloud environments."
"The difficult part is related to integration with sources of data that are used to create the logs as this depends on the infrastructure of the client."
"Splunk is more expensive than other solutions."
"Some of the terminology can be confusing, even for seasoned vets. Renaming components at this point would be a serious undertaking. However, it might be beneficial in the long run."
"I would like to get visibility into the data pipelines on heavy forwarders and indexers to see exactly their source and the cause of saturation when it occurs. This would help us learn even more about our high use applications."
