We performed a comparison between NetWitness Platform and RSA enVision based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Splunk, Wazuh and others in Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)."The most valuable feature is the alert notifications, which are categorized by severity levels: informational, low, medium, and high."
"The best feature is that onboarding to the SIM solution is quite easy. If you are using cloud-based solutions, it's just a few clicks to migrate it."
"Sentinel improved how we investigate incidents. We can create watchlists and update them to align with the latest threat intelligence. The information Microsoft provides enables us to understand thoroughly and improve as we go along. It allows us to provide monthly reports to our clients on their security posture."
"We didn't have anything similar. So, it really provides value from the incidents and automation point of view. The overview of the security fabric is most valuable."
"Another area where it is helping us is in creating a single dashboard for our environment. We can collect all the logs into a log analytics workset and run queries on top of it. We get all the results in the dashboard. Even a layman can understand this stuff. The way Microsoft presents it is really incredible."
"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."
"Having your logs put all in one place with machine learning working on those logs is a good feature. I don't need to start thinking, "Where are my logs?" My logs are in a centralized repository, like Log Analytics, which is why you can't use Sentinel without Log Analytics. Having all those logs in one place is an advantage."
"It is able to connect to an ever-growing number of platforms and systems within the Microsoft ecosystem, such as Azure Active Directory and Microsoft 365 or Office 365, as well as to external services and systems that can be brought in and managed. We can manage on-premises infrastructure. We can manage not just the things that are running in Azure in the public cloud, but through Azure Arc and the hybrid capabilities, we can monitor on-premises servers and endpoints. We can monitor VMware infrastructure, for instance, running as part of a hybrid environment."
"The most valuable features are the integration and ease of use."
"The most valuable features are its ingestion of logs and raising of alerts based on those logs."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to write rules and triggers for network communication, and then being able to investigate based on that."
"It's quite economical compared to other solutions in the market."
"The most valuable feature is the hunting ability to work in a CERT."
"The most valuable feature is that we can create our own connectors for any application, and NetWitness provides the training and tools to do it."
"The solution is really scalable for the high-end power, enterprise customer."
"Incident management is its most valuable feature."
"The configuration part is very easy...The technical support was sincere in their responses...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the management features. It's capable of managing large enterprises."
"We'd like to see more connectors."
"The data connectors for third-party tools could be improved, as some aren't available in Sentinel. They need to be available in the data connector panel."
"The performance could be improved. If I create 15 to 20 lines for a single-use case in KQL, sometimes it takes more time to execute. If I create use cases within a certain timeline, the result will show in .01 seconds. A complex query takes more time to get results."
"One key area that can be improved is by building a strong integration with our XDR platform."
"We've seen delays in getting the logs from third-party solutions and sometimes Microsoft products as well. It would be helpful if Microsoft created a list of the delays. That would make things more transparent for customers."
"Given that I am in the small business space, I wish they would make it easier to operate Sentinel without being a Sentinel expert. Examples of things that could be easier are creating alerts and automations from scratch and designing workbooks."
"Sentinel's reporting is complex and can be more user-friendly."
"The solution could improve the playbooks."
"An area for improvement would be better automation and more inbuilt use cases."
"I believe that integrating the solution with other products such as Oracle would be beneficial."
"Log aggregation is an issue with this solution because there are a huge number of alerts in a single instance."
"More customizability is required, which is something that they need to improve on."
"There is no support for this product in this country, so problems have to be resolved through global technical teams."
"RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets can improve the threat level aspect, it is lacking compared to other solutions. Whenever any hacking activity or any other threat factor occurred they used to provide the coverages very fast when comparing RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets. I heard the other three solutions, from a discussion with my team members who had experience in other solutions, they used to say that. Whenever any issues happened across the globe RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets are a little bit slow improving those detection mechanisms."
"I'd like to see improvement in its ease of use. It's basically unusable. It's overly complex."
"The initial setup was complex because it takes a lot of time to complete the implementation."
"In general, the solution currently isn't user-friendly."
"The integration could be easier, it should support more products."
"RSA enVision log manager is out of date and is not in use anymore."
