    I would only recommend IBM Security QRadar SIEM in a few situations. For one, it's very easy to setup and use if all your log sources are generic from known vendors. It's also significantly cheaper than Splunk, which is nice if you're trying to save money or be more efficient. I would not recommend IBM Security QRadar SIEM for environments with a lot of custom logs and complicated detection requirements.

    It's easy to integrate with other tools because it's a native Microsoft solution for generating OAuth tokens and handling other integrations. But as far as querying for data, using the LLM to analyze it and find that needle in the haystack, whatever, I feel it's terrible. In my experience, it just takes so much manipulation to get it to actually do what you want it to do.

    • Sometimes people don't know how to do a certain feature, especially in Excel, for example. It's a little bit more complex and a community for certain people. And with just a couple of questions about using Microsoft Security Copilot, they can get their answers ready, not having to get support from IT, right? So it eliminates multiple tickets and support from personnel on our team, and they can get the response themselves via this assistant.

    Cons
    IBM
    • Need to spend more time configuring the system to properly interpret and normalize different type of data collected from multiple resources.
    • While Rule creation QRadar uses that rules to detect security threats and generate alerts, but to creating and managing rules is bit complex & tedious work to complete.
    • IBM Security QRadar SIEM is excellent in handling large & complex systems that requires in-depth knowledge and extensive training to configure and maintain the system which includes upgrading, optimization of performance & issue troubleshooting.

    • I don't have that as of yet. I do like the product for now. I'm sure that as I use it more, I will find things that can be improved. Just understanding how it integrates with the Microsoft ecosystem, it works just fine for what I use it for.

    QRadar is an established and stable product, we have been using it for many years and want to continue to focus on it. Anyone who has used the product and knows it knows how reliable it is and how it facilitates continuous monitoring of threats from outside and inside. it is an exceptional product that is very useful for us.

    We are not going to stop using M365 and our environment is large enough that there is not enough in-house expertise to handle all aspects of security, even with the help of a MSSP. Security Copilot helps us shore up the knowledge gap and keep our organization's security posture tight.

    Usability
    IBM
    As a grade I give 8 as QRadar is not easy to learn. It requires some time to master it. It also needs a team of people actively working on the product. Once you learn to use it the software works very well and it is easy to correlate and understand detected threats. It only takes time to learn how to use it well and configure it properly.

    Anyone can use it. Easy to prompt, also capabilities to become advance with custom agents. It can become custom to your workflow. Many people will have their unique experiences to share and results are generally positive. This is a growth in the product from the effect of community and adoption/usage.

    Initial patience is required to learn how to use the product, and it takes a dedicated team to use it. One person is not enough, and it's not enough to just set it up and check it once in a while. It has to be used daily and kept under control to be used effectively

    IBM Qradar takes the best from its competitors. Reliable and stable but sometimes very expensive, the SIEM from IBM offers a wide range of scenarios in which the customers can suite and size their own infrastructures. IBM Qradar doesn't really needs to stack up againt its competitors because it already sets an example in the SIEM world.

    My usage of other products is based on SIEM tools. So far, Microsoft Security Copilot is the only product I've seen that works across multiple technologies/products to provide full visibility into security tooling using AI. I know other vendors are working towards this, but Microsoft has definitely taken a lead.

    Return on Investment
    IBM
    • Offense investigation was really helped in tackling the incidents. It was accurate and brief
    • The automation with IBM resilient (SOAR) was a milestone in elimination of user mistakes
    • The X-Force threat intelligence supported us in getting the work done without any 3rd party enterprise OSINT database

    • I'd say it was initially negative because it took us time to learn it and understand how to build the workflow around it. But since then, we've been able to speed up and adjust and adapt and move a lot faster. So it's overall.
    • It is definitely in the positive area now.
