“AI-Driven Monitoring Platform Offers Integration Benefits Yet Has High Learning Curve”

Jan 20, 2026
Really good monitoring option and a security platform that combines all the data from different endpoints in a single incident view. It shortens our response time now that we have everything on a big screen. With AI capabilities it becomes a powerful tool.

Cisco XDR Likes & Dislikes

Like

Demo is helpful in the beginning. Detection and grouping related incidents and reporting all the most important things about it. Great integration with the Cisco ecosystem, and third parties as well. Flexible licensing options for companies of different sizes.

Like

I love how Cisco XDR provides me all the security threats in one single place which helps me a lot to manage them without them jumping from one place to another. The process of detecting threats is much quicker now and requires less effort.

Like

By bringing my security data together, such as endpoints, cloud and network, the process of finding threats is easy. It uses AI which is helpful as it detects threats smoothly.

Dislike

You need a good knowledge to implement and set some features and solutions. Price could be high, and maybe adding more languages would be useful.

Dislike

It mostly works great if I am using the Cisco ecosystem, but the alerts require extra tuning to make sure it does not create noise at all.

Dislike

The interface is not so user friendly and not easy to understand. The performance tuning is not so reliable.
