We performed a comparison between Splunk SOAR and ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) 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.
"We can use Sentinel's playbook to block threats. It covers all of the environment, giving us great visibility."
"One of the most valuable features of Microsoft Sentinel is that it's cloud-based."
"The features that stand out are the detection engine and its integration with multiple data sources."
"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."
"Azure Application Gateway makes things a lot easier. You can create dashboards, alert rules, hunting and custom queries, and functions with it."
"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."
"We’ve got process improvement that's happened across multiple different fronts within the organization, within our IT organization based on this tool being in place."
"The scalability is great. You can put unlimited logs in, as long as you can pay for it. There are commitment tiers, up to six terabytes per day, which is nowhere close to what any one of our customers is running."
"The most valuable feature is the API connector, depending on how it's formatted and who made the actual app offering for it. The REST API is my favorite component. It's very easy to use. The filters are also really valuable. Those are the two primary features but I enjoy using the rest of it."
"Scalability is the best feature of the solution."
"I like the integration capabilities of Phantom. It has a lot of integrations with other products. Its searching methodologies are also good. It is also easy to understand and easy to create playbooks."
"So far, the interface is very easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Splunk SOAR that stands out is it has a great SOAR. The automation and orchestration module is highly mature. A lot of use cases are on user entity and behavioral analytics (UEBA), which is artificial intelligence and machine learning-based (AIML)."
"The customizable playbook is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"I have found all the security automation platform features of Splunk SOAR to be good. The Automation playbook development is highly useful."
"It has definitely saved a decent amount of time for our analysts so they can focus on other tasks."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and the ability to customize it."
"The product automatically generated a threat score based on the maliciousness of an IP."
"It's a solid platform and is stable enough. It is not complicated and is easy to use."
"ThreatConnect has a highly user-friendly interface."

"They can work on the EDR side of things... Every time we need to onboard these kinds of machines into the EDR, we need to do it with the help of Intune, to sync up the devices, and do the configuration. I'm looking for something on the EDR side that will reduce this kind of work."
"Only one thing is missing: NDR is not available out-of-the-box. The competitive cloud-native SIEM providers have the NDR component. Currently, Sentinel needs NDR to be powered from either Corelight or some other NDR provider."
"There is some relatively advanced knowledge that you have to have to properly leverage Sentinel's full capabilities. I'm thinking about things like the creation of workbooks, how you do threat-hunting, and the kinds of notifications you're getting... It takes time for people to ramp up on that and develop a familiarity or expertise with it."
"The AI capabilities must be improved."
"Sentinel provides decent visibility, but it's sometimes a little cumbersome to get to the information I want because there is so much information. I would also like to see more seamless integration between Sentinel and third-party security products."
"Microsoft Defender has a built-in threat expert option that enables you to contact an expert. That feature isn't available in Sentinel because it's a huge product that integrates all the technologies. I would like Microsoft to add the threat expert option so we can contact them. There are a few other features, like threat assessment that the PG team is working on. I expect them to release this feature in the next quarter."
"Sometimes, it is hard for us to estimate the costs of Microsoft Sentinel."
"I would like Sentinel to have more out-of-the-box analytics rules. There are already more than 400 rules, but they could add more industry-specific ones. For example, you could have sets of out-of-the-box rules for banking, financial sector, insurance, automotive, etc., so it's easier for people to use it out of the box. Structuring the rules according to industry might help us."
"It would be ideal if we could automate processes even more."
"We want to see improvements made to the APIs such that we can connect to many different systems and data sources."
"There is a lot of room for improvement with the UI."
"Splunk's support for integration is subpar and has room for improvement."
"What we have seen is if the workflow gets halted or if we want to halt a workflow, it cannot be resumed."
"The pricing could be a bit more reasonable. It would be great if it were feasible for smaller organizations."
"The UI can be more customizable for the clients."
"The technical support for the Splunk SIEM solution was average."
"I couldn’t get any training videos online when I was working with the tool."
"Integration is an area that could use some improvement."
"It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment."
"They should make it a little bit easier to generate events and share them with the community"
