Find out in this report how the two Microsoft Security Suite solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
We have noticed savings of approximately twenty percent by using Azure Bastion compared to VM pricing.
As a Microsoft partner, we receive significant discounts, making the solution affordable for us.
Support is satisfactory but with room for improvement, primarily concerning data transfer issues.
We usually get backup within two hours.
They are sometimes responsive, however, often issues cannot be reproduced on their end, making it challenging.
My team raised multiple support tickets for the product, and we were able to get responses from Microsoft support team.
Their response time and skill set are both good.
It is designed to provide access over a private network without hitting the internet.
It is scalable; I evaluated the product and decided to use Defender on over 700 of our company servers.
Azure Bastion is stable.
It is very resource-intensive, consuming a lot of memory and CPU.
There are compatibility issues occasionally arising with false positives when other security tools are not whitelisted in Microsoft Defender.
I would rate the overall stability as an eight.
I would like to see integrated AI features with Azure Bastion, especially for connectivity issues.
A storage solution must be created to transfer data, and this requires additional permissions like ACL or NFS.
It would be nice to have the capability to cut and paste across desktops, similar to old-fashioned Remote Desktop emulation.
The product is not stable; it often uses excessive memory and CPU, which makes it slow.
A vulnerability I patch within 15 minutes takes 24 additional hours for an update.
The automated remediations can be more specific.
Microsoft's pricing is on the higher side and could be more competitive.
The price is not necessarily cheaper, but it is acceptable.
Overall, every organization wishes for cheaper options, but we look at the security side as well, so we are good for now.
For non-partners, however, the cost could be seen as higher, between seven to ten.
The pricing is reasonable, and it's included in the whole Microsoft E5 bundle, so it's all-inclusive.
It offers a secure platform to access resources over a private network without hitting the internet.
The security is the main reason we use Azure Bastion because it is integrated with Azure Active Directory, ensuring that access is secure.
The most valuable feature of Azure Bastion is its security, which I find to be the best part.
The integration with Sentinel has been one of the most valuable features for my organization.
The most valuable aspect is the kind of assessment results I get, and the recommendations provided in Microsoft products really help in taking care of the resources.
Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management provides regular advisories and recommendations that help improve our security posture.
Azure Bastion is a service you deploy that lets you connect to a virtual machine using your browser and the Azure portal. The Azure Bastion service is a fully platform-managed PaaS service that you provision inside your virtual network. It provides secure and seamless RDP/SSH connectivity to your virtual machines directly from the Azure portal over TLS. When you connect via Azure Bastion, your virtual machines do not need a public IP address, agent, or special client software.
