Sentinel is the best "cloud-native" in the market yet, so if the organization has a cloud presence (which almost everyone has) then Sentinel is the right choice for having a single pane of glass for all your security monitoring needs. Sentinel is a very good tool for log analysis and event management purposes as well. With KQL and ASIM parsers, organizations can retrieve invaluable insights even from the most complex data. And of course, Sentinel is a great choice for automating the incident response process to a very good extent.

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.

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.

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.

Microsoft
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.

Return on Investment
Microsoft
  • Microsoft Sentinel is a good investment, especially when sided with other solutions such as Microsoft 365 Defender, as it provides 360° protection on every level of the infrastructure.
  • When deployed on infrastructures that have never had an SIEM, Microsoft Sentinel helps to assess vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.
  • As with any other SIEM, Microsoft Sentinel basically eliminates the need to put effort into every single platform (like EDR, NDR, XDR) and converge that effort on a single product that correlates and orchestrates the rest.
