Reviewer Insights for: Microsoft Sentinel
Microsoft Sentinel Likes & Dislikes
Integration with Microsoft products (M365, Azure, Defender, etc.) is very smooth. Its smart threat detection, automatic response capabilities, and ability to reduce false positives are highly appreciated. KQL queries allow users to better visualize the data and investigate potential threats.
It is easu to integrate with Microsoft envioronments, both cloud and on-premise
1) It has access and ability to adopt with Microsoft ecosystem Microsoft Sentinel can easily integrate with Azure, Microsoft 365 and many more Microsoft products and services. This will ensure better data correlation among all the products and services. 2) Seamless automation with playbooks - SOAR capabilities You can easily create automated incident response workflows using Microsoft Azure Logic Apps. 3) It has an advanced threat detection system Sentinel contains Microsoft's threat detection intelligence and a wide set of analytics rules to detect complex threats.
Sentinel can become expensive if not configured properly, especially with high data ingestion volumes. Like other Microsoft products, pricing and licensing complexity are common concerns. Although KQL makes investigation much easier, it is another learning curve to tackle.
What I dont like at all is the thir-party integration, the associated costs when integrating new sources, and keeping in mind that every GB used must be included in the budget. On the other hand, theres the issue of queries, for which you must have knowledge of KQL
1) Need to learn KQL Kusto Query Language is powerful, but beginners need more time to learn it. So, new teams need more technical resource people to start this. 2) Initial configuration is a bit complex In the initial stage, setup new data connectors and defining detection rues may be a bit hard to beginners. 3) Cost Management Sentinel typically pricing based on data ingestion. The bill can be high if it is not well optimized.
