Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Sentinel

Sentinel for us is the core sim engine. That is where all my event logs get correlated and it is the nerve hub of my security operation center.

Pros

  • What has worked well for me and my company is this is a SaaS product, so the access and the availability from that perspective is significantly high. Integration I think was above average for most of the devices as well as the user interface is good.

Cons

  • Dashboard is not very good. Some of the interfaces and the integration needs so much more work.
  • I'll say neutral.
So a number of sources, a firewall, endpoints, cloud, lot of data goes into the system.
Yes, Copilot and lot of user interface for our security analyst.
Largely through security co-pilot. Mostly through co-pilot.

Do you think Microsoft Sentinel delivers good value for the price?

No

Are you happy with Microsoft Sentinel's feature set?

Yes

Did Microsoft Sentinel live up to sales and marketing promises?

No

Did implementation of Microsoft Sentinel go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Microsoft Sentinel again?

Yes

The product is well suited if you have a large Microsoft ecosystem, their platforms solutions are that is what you use, which we do. I think where it is less suited is where the ecosystem is broader. And if you have less than 25% or 30% of Microsoft's capabilities deployed in your environment.
