A key evaluation criterion is the tool's integration capabilities. Reviewers state that it seamlessly connects with other Microsoft products like Defender, Sentinel, Intune, and Entra ID, allowing it to interpret security data and monitor configurations across the Microsoft environment.
“It seamlessly integrates with Microsoft Defender, Sentinel, and Intune, and Copilot leverages AI to interpret the majority of our security data and provide actionable insights through natural language prompts.”
“We use it to review all of the different configurations we have within Microsoft. So from our Entra ID to our on-prem Active Directory, as well as our Exchange settings and all of that good stuff for O365. So we're just monitoring that environment and that platform using the Microsoft Security Copilot agents that are available.”

The reliability of the AI is a critical point of evaluation for some users. One reviewer finds the tool's intelligence to be lacking, noting that it is frequently incorrect and requires constant redirection.
“To be honest, the entire Microsoft Security Copilot suite is severely lacking. In my experience, it's not very intelligent. It's frequently wrong. You have to constantly give it redirection.”
Reporting and Cost Visibility

Reviewers consider practical aspects like reporting and cost. They mention that while information can be copied and pasted, the tool cannot natively produce report documents. A significant concern is the lack of visibility into the costs of add-ons and total potential expenses.
“One of my things is trying to get reports out of that. I wish it were a little cleaner. Right now, you can get the information through Microsoft Security Copilot. You can copy that information and paste it elsewhere. It cannot actually produce the document itself.”
“For Microsoft Security Copilot, it would be awesome to have a hover over all the add-ons to understand what the cost is or the percentage of cost against an SEU is. So, if there are five add-ons for this particular agent or the default agent within Microsoft Security Copilot, what is the total cost? Once you add that up, where can we see, as a customer, that this is going to? If this is fully utilized, how it should be, it's going to cost X. And right now, again, no visibility. And I just can't stress that enough that it's amazing that our hands are tied because of the lack of visibility.”
“And so if I could tell a better story with Microsoft Security Copilot, that makes my job a lot easier.”
