Sentinel Initial Setup
The initial setup was easy, but I had already done it a couple of times. There's just the component in Azure. If you have already configured login into your workspace, it's not difficult.
Deployment doesn't take more than an hour. It's less than an hour if you know what you're doing, and it hardly takes a few minutes. And if the monitoring agent is installed on all the servers, the data starts flowing in within ten to 15 minutes, and it's ready to go. Deploying the solution is a very small task, and one person can do it easily. It's a component added to the cloud, and once it's added, it starts working straight away.

The initial setup is straightforward. It is simple to start, but when we arrive at the limit of the product, it is very difficult to improve.

Sentinel's initial setup is not too complex, but it's medium. Log Source integration, setting up the Linux servers, Linux Log Source, and log forward is complex in Sentinel. Also, the solution's configuration might not be straightforward. I have not found any useful resources for the integration part.

The deployment process is pretty straightforward. Micro Focus/NetIQ provides you with a virtual appliance, so if you run it on any virtual platform, you just deploy that, start it up, and it guides you through the process, asking for things like the IP address, passwords, time zone, and stuff like that. The setup process takes about 45 minutes, and then you have a running system. It's pretty easy to set up.

The solution's initial setup is easy because it is cloud-based. We simply buy a license and paste our IP to get the logs easily.

Sentinel's initial setup is not very easy. You will have to perform some steps, but everything is guided properly. They will tell you what is your next step.
It is a little bit complex when it comes to custom integrations, and you need to understand a little bit of Azure architecture to meet those integrations. However, it is easier for basic integration with well-known devices like Windows and Linux.

The initial setup was very easy. It took around one or two weeks.
Just follow the manuals after reading them. Linux knowledge helps, be cause Linux opens your hard mind. It is complex for mortals, familiar for "Linuxers".

Complex but mainly because of all the network variables we had. Imagine to map firewalls rules passively and then request the ability from an external group not really involved in the installation.
