Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Sentinel
We use it to collect our logs and then correlate it with security intelligence, so we get alerts.
- I think what it does the best is the community aspect of it which means it's already integrated in the platform. You can just click and select stuff you like and it is created by other professionals. I think that's what it does the best and it's really easy to integrate into your existing interment.
- I think it has room for improvement in its ease of use. It's not hard to use, but for someone who doesn't even add someone that shows you everything, at first it could be hard because you don't know what some of the names are. If you don't know it, you could get confused like a playbook. If you don't know what the playbook is, you could be mistaken.
- I'd say that Sentinel gives us a lot more vision about our stuff. For the business impact, it's really hard to tell because we're an entertainment shop. In fact, it costs us money to get it to run, but it gave us a pre-value. But yeah, it's hard to correlate it with the business impact.
Elasticsearch, we did a demo about it. Also the CrowdStrike platform, we got a demo on it. How did they compare? I think Elasticsearch, for us, it's more hard to configure. Microsoft Sentinel is pretty straight to the point. We turn on stuff, it's plug-and-play. CrowdStrike, I don't know much. Since it was only a demo.
