McAfee Enterprise Security Manager
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.

Azure Sentinel is an excellent option like SIEM. It has cool, smart features and functionality, and is quite powerful in terms of processing information in the cloud. I recommend it to colleagues because it is very easy to deploy and configure, and learn to use it on a daily basis. The panel is super intuitive and rich in details. When opening Sentinel, it is already possible to analyze the indices that happened and those that deserve further attention and treatment.

Cons
McAfee Enterprise Security Manager
- 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.

- There's not much that needs improvement, but the on-prem log sources still require a lot of development.

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.
