We performed a comparison between IBM Resilient and Splunk SOAR 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."
"The AI and ML of Azure Sentinel are valuable. We can use machine learning models at the tenant level and within Office 365 and Microsoft stack. We don't need to depend upon any other connectors. It automatically provisions the native Microsoft products."
"It has basic out-of-the-box integrations with multiple log sources."
"I like the KQL query. It simplifies getting data from the table and seeing the logs. All you need to know are the table names. It's quite easy to build use cases by using KQL."
"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."
"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 ability of all these solutions to work together natively is essential. We have an Azure subscription, including Log Analytics. This feature automatically acts as one of the security baselines and detects recommendations because it also integrates with Defender. We can pull the sysadmin logs from Azure. It's all seamless and native."
"The initial setup is very simple and straightforward."
"As a whole, the product is stable...Technical support is very good."
"The solution is reliable in our usage."
"The most valuable features of IBM Resilient are its flexibility and customization options for incident response."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"It's really simple and has a flexible interface."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution is simple to use and to integrate with IBM QRadar."
"IBM Resilient is scalable."
"The best feature is the integration and the custom Python code that we can write. Splunk SOAR provides us with both of these capabilities, allowing us to integrate different security solutions with Splunk SOAR and take remediation actions directly on those security tools."
"Our customers find it easy to conduct searches and consider it an excellent content management system."
"The solution allows us to customize playbooks and incorporate custom code, allowing us to drag and drop elements while still writing code to build the integrations we need."
"Very flexible integration with other tools"
"Splunk SOAR's quick response to incidents is the most valuable part."
"So far, the interface is very easy to use."
"It has definitely saved a decent amount of time for our analysts so they can focus on other tasks."
"The solution’s dashboard is really good and customizable. It also has a good UI."
"Microsoft Sentinel should provide an alternative query language to KQL for users who lack KQL expertise."
"Sentinel still has some anomalies. For example, sometimes when we write a query for log analysis with KQL, it doesn't give us the data in a proper way... Also, the fields or columns could be improved. Sometimes, it is not giving the desired results and there is a blank field."
"I can't think of anything other than just getting the name out there. I think a lot of customers don't fully understand the full capabilities of Azure Sentinel yet. It is kind of like when they're first starting to use Azure, it might not be something they first think about. So, they should just kind of get to the point where it is more widely used."
"While I appreciate the UI itself and the vast amount of information available on the platform, I'm finding the overall user experience to be frustrating due to frequent disconnections and the requirement to repeatedly re-authenticate."
"Multi-tenancy, in my opinion, needs to be improved. I believe it can do better as a managed service provider."
"Sometimes, we are observing large ingestion delays. We expect logs within 5 minutes, but it takes about 10 to 15 minutes."
"The solution should allow for a streamlined CI/CD procedure."
"They only classify alerts into three categories: high, medium, and low. So, from the user's point of view, having another critical category would be awesome."
"The ability to analyze incidents needs to be improved in the solution."
"There are shortcomings with IBM Resilient's technical support team that can be considered for improvement in the future."
"IBM Resilient is quite complex, including its configuration."
"The product must provide more integration with other tools."
"The product needs a bit more development."
"This product could be improved with better customization. This product isn't the best on the market like QRadar, but it's actually a good solution. However, some competitors' solutions contain more integration, support, automation, or flexibility."
"One thing to improve is how it handles data formats, which currently might require scripting for conversion to CSV before uploading."
"The implementation could be a bit simpler."
"Splunk SOAR has room to improve its offering for small-sized customers. The price is not fair for smaller-sized customers."
"Creating playbooks using the solution’s playbook editor, for me, is very cumbersome. There have been instances where I have said to myself that I just don't want to use this editor. I might just use a code block and write my own code within it... The functionality in the playbook editor is 80 percent there, but that 20 percent is still lacking. They could make it more efficient."
"Splunk SOAR can improve IoT/OT security-related case studies or your use cases. Their integration with identity and access management (IAM) solutions is a bit shaky. They don't have good integration with a lot of IAM solutions. They do have good capability in terms of user access management internally, but even with privileged user access, they have a good module. However, if they have to integrate with solutions, such as CyberArk or IBM IAM solutions they are lacking, the visibility of user access is not that much."
"have put a number of ideas on the ideas.splunk.com site for feature requests for the Splunk SOAR product. I posted one of them about three years ago, which finally got implemented in the latest release that just got announced, so the time to implement new features and things like that is a little bit concerning."
"The scalability could be better."
"The algorithm and machine learning have room for improvement and can be more user-friendly."
"It could be easier to implement."
"Some of the training materials are on a basic level."
