We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""The Log analytics are useful.""I believe one of the main advantages is Microsoft Sentinel's seamless integration with other Microsoft products.""It is easy to implement (turn on) - does need a skilled analyst to develop queries and playbooks.""The features that stand out are the detection engine and its integration with multiple data sources.""The most valuable feature is the onboarding of the workloads. You can see all that has been onboarded in your account on the dashboards.""Native integration with Microsoft security products or other Microsoft software is also crucial. For example, we can integrate Sentinel with Office 365 with one click. Other integrations aren't as easy. Sometimes, we have to do it manually.""One of the most valuable features of Microsoft Sentinel is that it's cloud-based."

More Microsoft Sentinel Pros →

"FortiSIEM's log correlation is good.""The CMDB and the device discovery features are most valuable.""We have found the most important features in Fortinet FortiSIEM to be the correlation, file utility check, latest file, and hash changes. These features are important for us.""The solution’s IP database is awesome.""The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiSIEM are the SD-WAN, Global LAN, and application controls.""Fortinet FortiSIEM needs to provide better API integrations to users.""Both the collecting logs and duo correlation are valuable features for us.""We like the integration of all of these Fortinet platforms together. Everything is integrated well, and we are able to sell that as a service to our customers."

"My experience with technical support has been perfect."

Cons
"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.""Its documentation is not so simple. It is easy for somebody who is Microsoft certified or more closely attached to Microsoft solutions. It is not easy for those who are working on open-source platforms. There isn't a central point where everything is documented, and there is no specific training or certification.""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.""Sometimes, it is hard for us to estimate the costs of Microsoft Sentinel.""The interface could be more user-friendly. It''s a small improvement that they could make if they wanted to.""They should integrate it with many other software-as-a-service providers and make connectors available so that you don't have to do any sort of log normalization.""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.""One key area that can be improved is by building a strong integration with our XDR platform."

More Microsoft Sentinel Cons →

"Fortinet FortiSIEM could improve by having better integration and extensions. This would benefit by allowing us to give more rules.""We expect the latest patch from Fortinet FortiSIEM to give the ability to work with signature files.""Its training can be improved. Its price also needs to be improved.""There is no proper guide for integration or configuration.""The dashboards need to be improved. It gives you so much detail, but sometimes too much detail, especially to an executive, it's too much.""The product does not have Security Orchestration and Automation Response, I would recommend adding this feature.""They should enhance the solution's AI capabilities, including XDR and EDR.""The dashboard needs to improve."

More Fortinet FortiSIEM Cons →

"The presentation of the features can be improved. It can be more user-friendly for the visual part of the portal and to allow the customer to be able to use."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It comes with a Microsoft subscription which the customer has, so they don't have to invest somewhere else."
  • "It is a consumption-based license model. bands at 100, 200, 400 GB per day etc. Azure Sentinel Pricing | Microsoft Azure"
  • "Good monthly operational cost model for the detection and response outcomes delivered, M365 logs don't count toward the limits which is a good benefit."
  • "I have had mixed feedback. At one point, I heard a client say that it sometimes seems more expensive. Most of the clients are on Office 365 or M365, and they are forced to take Azure SIEM because of the integration."
  • "It is kind of like a sliding scale. There are different tiers of pricing that go from $100 per day up to $3,500 per day. So, it just kind of depends on how much data is being stored. There can be additional costs to the standard license other than the additional data. It just kind of depends on what other services you're spinning up in Azure, or if you're using something like Azure log analytics."
  • "I am just paying for the log space with Azure Sentinel. It costs us about $2,000 a month. Most of the logs are free. We are only paying money for Azure Firewall logs because email logs or Azure AD logs are free to use for us."
  • "Sentinel is a bit expensive. If you can figure a way of configuring it to meet your needs, then you can find a way around the cost."
  • "Azure Sentinel is very costly, or at least it appears to be very costly. The costs vary based on your ingestion and your retention charges."
  • More Microsoft Sentinel Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Please be cheaper and more simplified."
  • "We bought the perpetual license, so we own the product, but there is a three-year support renewal fee for that."
  • "Pricing is acceptable for more than 90% of our customers, as they normally get discounts."
  • "Its price can be better. We are Fortinet partners, so we can get discounts, but its price can be an issue at the beginning for others. There is a licensing scheme for every case. There are three licensing schemes that we can choose from."
  • "The price of Fortinet FortiSIEM is a lot less when compared to other solutions."
  • "They have a yearly subscription."
  • "The solution is available for both, perpetual and subscription licenses."
  • "Manageable, however would be better as pay as you go versus CapEX."
