We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiSOAR and Swimlane based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Security Orchestration Automation and Response (SOAR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There are a lot of things you can explore as a user. You can even go and actively hunt for threats. You can go on the offensive rather than on the defensive."
"The most valuable feature is the performance because unlike legacy SIEMs that were on-premises, it does not require as much maintenance."
"The best functionality that you can get from Azure Sentinel is the SOAR capability. So, you can estimate any type of activity, such as when an alert was triggered or an incident was found."
"It's pretty powerful and its performance is pretty good."
"The in-built SOAR of Sentinel is valuable. Kusto Query Language is also valuable for the ease of writing queries and ease of getting insights from the logs. Schedule-based queries within Sentinel are also valuable. I found these three features most useful for my projects."
"The UI of Sentinel is very good and easy to use, even for beginners."
"The most valuable features are its threat handling and detection. It's a powerful tool because it's based on machine learning and on the behavior of malware."
"We can use Sentinel's playbook to block threats. It covers all of the environment, giving us great visibility."
"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiSOAR is the number of available connectors and the simplicity to start to automate."
"It has a quick detection and response time."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The good news is that FortiSOAR is not hard to maintain. If you prepared well and deployed strong initially, then maintenance will take half an hour every other week, not more than that. A single person can do it."
"It is a scalable solution...The implementation phase of the product was not tough or difficult."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR is a very interactive and user-friendly solution."
"We use the product for security."
"The solution is easy to implement and includes 450 built-in connectors."
"The technical support from Swimlane is very good."
"It provides us with a single portal for our logs from different solutions."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the support."
"Microsoft should improve Sentinel, considering that from the legacy systems, it cannot collect logs."
"I would like to be able to monitor applications outside of the Azure Cloud."
"They can work on the EDR side of things... Every time we need to onboard these kinds of machines into the EDR, we need to do it with the help of Intune, to sync up the devices, and do the configuration. I'm looking for something on the EDR side that will reduce this kind of work."
"If Azure Sentinel had the ability to ingest Azure services from different tenants into another tenant that was hosting Azure Sentinel, and not lose any metadata, that would be a huge benefit to a lot of companies."
"At the network level, there is a limitation in integrating some of the switches or routers with Microsoft Sentinel. Currently, SPAN traffic monitoring is not available in Microsoft Sentinel. I have heard that it is available in Defender for Identity, which is a different product. It would be good if LAN traffic monitoring or SPAN traffic monitoring is available in Microsoft Sentinel. It would add a lot of value. It is available in some of the competitor products in the market."
"The playbook development environment is not as rich as it should be. There are multiple occasions when we face problems while creating the playbook."
"The only thing is sometimes you can have a false positive."
"We've seen delays in getting the logs from third-party solutions and sometimes Microsoft products as well. It would be helpful if Microsoft created a list of the delays. That would make things more transparent for customers."
"The area that needs improvement is integration with multiple third-party vendors."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR's dashboard is not easy to understand."
"The solution doesn't connect well with the network devices."
"I don't currently see where the solution is lacking features. For us and for our clients it works very well and we're pleased with it."
"The UI design of the solution needs to be changed since it can get difficult for a newbie to operate."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR should improve its analysis."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"The technology and integrations are important so should continue to be enhanced."
"We faced a lot of issues with the product’s stability."
"The initial setup and deployment are complex."
"The stability of the solution has room for improvement."
