Microsoft
Well, it's definitely suited to log in monitor most of the normal security infrastructure and collect security telemetry. It also extends well to Microsoft's entire suite with regards to data collection for things like Office 365, Power BI, power apps, and the like. It is also pretty good at collecting information from homegrown applications, especially if you're building in Azure.

I believe that McAfee Enterprise Security Manager is best-suited for anyone in an office setting with a computer containing sensitive information. McAfee Enterprise Security Manager is constantly working to make sure that your device is free from an threats. Our field workers, however, probably wouldn't have a need for McAfee Enterprise Security Manager. They do not use computers for work and have no sensitive information stored in a work-related cloud.

Pros
Microsoft
  • Sentinel is by far the most efficient tool in supporting the highest number of solutions and products when it comes to data connection (or ingestion) and that too in the least complex manner possible. Most of the data connectors in Sentinel are very easy to configure and deploy.
  • Incident Management is undoubtedly one of the main USPs of Sentinel. With an easy-to-use UI, variety of utilities (adding tasks, manual triggering of playbooks, activity logs etc.) and provision of having an investigation map from the incident details page, Sentinel clearly stands out in this area.
  • I personally love the feature of integrating 'Threat Intelligence' to Sentinel from a free and one of the most reliable sources, Microsoft itself. This not only saves time for an analyst in checking the reputation of an entity but also allows to take actions on the suspicious entities at earliest.

Cons
Microsoft
  • It takes some time to learn how to use and install it properly, and it does not connect effectively with external PaaS systems such as Salesforce CRM, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and so on.
  • Microsoft can simplify the display of the logs to make them easier to study, and the user interface occasionally delays, which can also be enhanced.

  • The user interface is not the best, it is still based on Flash player (but they have plans to migrate to HTML5).
  • While the "user" interface is pretty straight forward, the management interface is fairly complicated.

Usability

The Microsoft Azure Sentinel solution is very good and even better if you use Azure. It's easy to implement and learn how to use the tool with an intuitive and simple interface. New updates are happening to always bring new news and improve the experience and usability. The solution brings reliability as it is from a very reliable manufacturer.

McAfee Enterprise Security Manager overall is a great tool. It is effective in today's setting, wherein lots of potential threats are lurking. Its operations within the network are seamless. Users won't even notice that a SIEM is working in the background. But in today's trend, most of the businesses is heading towards the migration to cloud, which McAfee should improve its integration with.

The key advantage of using Sentinel lies in Microsoft already being a renowned name in cloud services. Hence, the Collection of data at the cloud scale across all users, devices, applications, and infrastructure, both on-premises and especially in the MS Cloud, is super easy. Additionally, leveraging Threat Intel from Microsoft itself gives a sense of security, given their years of experience in the collection of intel. The AI and Machine learning features provided by MS is one of the finest.

We selected McAfee Enterprise Security Manager because the pricing is competitive in the industry. It is very reliable. The vendor offers good support in real time. Offers the results that we have been looking for. The ability to get the logs may be of last 2 years in a matter of seconds. The ability to retain logs for a very long time.
