We performed a comparison between ManageEngine Log360 and Microsoft Sentinel based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."ManageEngine Log360 is not difficult to deploy."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"The most valuable features for us are the application logs monitoring and the dashboard, which provides a single-pane view of all the ongoing activities."
"It is easier to deploy than are other SIEMs, which is great. You can also get an overview of your environment, which is very handy."
"The most valuable feature is that this solution is more secure than others, and there are more applications and features as well."
"The reports that you can run are really nice."
"You can have all of the logs from servers to network and it gets sent out to the correct owners. This is very helpful."
"The deployment is quite simple and pretty straightforward."
"The solution offers a lot of data on events. It helps us create specific detection strategies."
"It has a lot of great features."
"Sentinel's most important feature is the ability to centralize all the logs in one place. There's no need to search multiple systems for information."
"Its inbuilt Kusto Query Language is a valuable feature. It provides the flexibility needed to leverage advanced data analytics rules and policies and enables us to easily navigate all our security events in a single view. It helps any user easily understand the data or any security lags in their data and applications."
"Having your logs put all in one place with machine learning working on those logs is a good feature. I don't need to start thinking, "Where are my logs?" My logs are in a centralized repository, like Log Analytics, which is why you can't use Sentinel without Log Analytics. Having all those logs in one place is an advantage."
"The most valuable feature is the performance because unlike legacy SIEMs that were on-premises, it does not require as much maintenance."
"The AI and ML of Azure Sentinel are valuable. We can use machine learning models at the tenant level and within Office 365 and Microsoft stack. We don't need to depend upon any other connectors. It automatically provisions the native Microsoft products."
"The AI capability is one of the main features of the solution because I believe that in the market, there are few solutions that are providing security solutions based on AI and machine learning."
"It's difficult to find which conditions have been applied to a report because they are provided by default by ManageEngine. However, with other SIEMs if you want to create a report, they provide details, like which conditions are triggering certain reports. This needs to be there in ManageEngine. It would be good to know which parameter has been applied to the report that is updating the system."
"It takes a little bit of time for Log360 to actually learn your environment."
"We can log in as a local user, and it's fine, but when we login with an Active Directory user, we cannot."
"The solution lacks some features when compared to other products."
"Their technical support should be improved."
"It is not expensive compared to other solutions."
"The graphical interface could be made easier to use when you are connecting to different network equipment."
"The solution needs to improve hub storage. It should integrate AI and ML capabilities."
"They should just add more and more out-of-the-box connectors. It is quite a new product, and it has a lot of connectors, and even more would be good."
"The following would be a challenge for any product in the market, but we have some in-house apps in our environment... our apps were built with different parameters and the APIs for them are not present in Sentinel. We are working with Microsoft to build those custom APIs that we require. That is currently in progress."
"I think the number one area of improvement for Sentinel would be the cost."
"The playbook development environment is not as rich as it should be. There are multiple occasions when we face problems while creating the playbook."
"Microsoft Sentinel is relatively expensive, and its cost should be improved."
"The playbook is a bit difficult and could be improved."
"Multi-tenancy, in my opinion, needs to be improved. I believe it can do better as a managed service provider."
"I believe one of the challenges I encountered was the absence of live training sessions, even with the option to pay for them."
