We performed a comparison between Falcon LogScale and Sumo Logic Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Splunk, Datadog, Wazuh and others in Log Management."It is always correlating to IOCs for normal attacks, using Azure-related resources. For example, if any illegitimate IP starts unusual activity on our Azure firewall, then it automatically generates an alarm for us."
"The native integration of the Microsoft security solution has been essential because it helps reduce some false positives, especially with some of the impossible travel rules that may be configured in Microsoft 365. For some organizations, that might be benign because they're using VPNs, etc."
"The part that was very unexpected was Sentinel's ability to integrate with Azure Lighthouse, which, as a managed services solution provider, gives us the ability to also manage our customers' Sentinel environments or Sentinel workspaces. It is a big plus for us. With its integration with Lighthouse, we get the ability to monitor multiple workspaces from one portal. A lot of the Microsoft Sentinel workbooks already integrate with that capability, and we save countless amounts of money by simply being able to almost immediately realize multitenant capabilities. That alone is a big plus for us."
"Azure Application Gateway makes things a lot easier. You can create dashboards, alert rules, hunting and custom queries, and functions with it."
"What is most useful, is that it has a good connection to the Microsoft ecosystem, and I think that's the key part."
"Microsoft Sentinel comes preloaded with templates for teaching and analytics rules."
"There are a lot of things you can explore as a user. You can even go and actively hunt for threats. You can go on the offensive rather than on the defensive."
"The most valuable features are its threat handling and detection. It's a powerful tool because it's based on machine learning and on the behavior of malware."
"It offers the capability to view live log ingestion directly from the console which means you can seamlessly manage live log data ingestion alongside accessing and analyzing older data from the past."
"Scalability has been good for our needs. We haven't run into any scaling issues in regards to size so far."
"Support has been excellent. Sumo Logic's support staff is really good, both their account management staff and direct support."
"I have no concerns about the stability of the product. I feel it handles the stress we put on it very well."
"With this tool, we provide access to every developer team the ability to find errors, then they come to us and ask for specific help."
"It gives us a bird's eye view of what's happening from our connection's point of view."
"The tool has key features like operability. It will alert the admins whenever a device is onboarded."
"Sumo Logic Security is a good solution for searching the logs and identifying the issues."
"The solution is quite stable."
"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."
"The solution should allow for a streamlined CI/CD procedure."
"When it comes to ingesting Azure native log sources, some of the log sources are specific to the subscription, and it is not always very clear."
"I believe one of the challenges I encountered was the absence of live training sessions, even with the option to pay for them."
"Its implementation could be simpler. It is not really simple or straightforward. It is in the middle. Sometimes, connectors are a little bit complex."
"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."
"Some of the data connectors are outdated, at least the ones that utilize Linux machines for log forwarding. I believe that Microsoft is already working on improving this."
"For certain vendors, some of the data that Microsoft Sentinel captures is redacted due to privacy reasons."
"There are some overlapping features found in multiple tools."
"Sumo Logic needs to make sure integrating solutions are seamless."
"Sumo Logic Security is expensive, and its pricing could be improved."
"The API integration in Sumo Logic Security could improve. There are delayed connections or they stop and then automatically start. Having a seamless log collection would be beneficial."
"The initial setup is the most stressful, like learning how to use it."
"If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see."
"In my opinion, this solution has a steep learning curve and requires practice if users to be able to use this tool very efficiently."
"The solution should improve its UI."
"I would like better UI-driven functionality to create alerts and reports. Now, we have to understand the syntax, so it is a little difficult for someone to pick it up without using the manuals. If there was more of a graphical user interface, it would be beneficial."
