Find out in this report how the two Extended Detection and Response (XDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It has been great for us. Previously, we didn't have a solution to protect us, especially from malware, whereas now, we are getting protection up front, especially from the malware attacks coming through emails or endpoints."
"The most valuable feature is the network security."
"The product integrates security into one tool instead of having third-party security tools."
"It's a great threat intelligence source for us, providing alerts for things it detects on the network and on the machines. We've used it often when there is a potential incident to see what was done on a computer. That works quite nicely because you can see everything that the user has done..."
"It gives a lot of flexibility in terms of configuration and customization as per the business requirements."
"The most valuable features are spam filtering, attachment filtering, and antivirus protection."
"Defender is easy to use. It has a nice console, and everything is all in one place."
"We can automate routine tasks and write scripts to carry out difficult tasks, which makes things easier for us."
"The solution has an automatic patch management capability."
"Scalability is pretty easy. It's easy to increase the capacity. You can just add on licenses to the existing license, and the duration of the license can be adjusted. For example, you've already bought a license for a year, and you want to add some more users. We can just add on licenses for the remaining period so that the entire organization can have the same expiry date. That makes renewal easier."
"Good for monitoring, active response, and for vulnerabilities."
"Wazuh automatically scans the host for CIS benchmarks for the latest updates and vulnerabilities and gives a host score. It provides a percentage of perceived risk due to of non patches or any missing patches on that work."
"The tool is stable."
"The deployment is easy and they provide very good documentation."
"Wazuh offers an enhanced HDR version that outperforms its competitors."
"Wazuh offers numerous features, such as the ability to define custom rules for detecting malicious activities and remembering behaviors."
"The product’s interface is intuitive."
"My company implemented Wazuh because it was relatively inexpensive. They could quickly get their hands on it to check a box for some audit and compliance."
"The licensing is a nightmare and has room for improvement."
"The web filtering solution needs to be improved because currently, it is very simple."
"A simple dashboard without having to use MS Sentinel would be a welcome improvement."
"Customers say they want absolutely seamless integration between other Microsoft solutions and Defender XDR, including the ability to change device settings within the Defender portal. They need to contact the IT team responsible for the device management tools to change some settings. They would prefer that those changes be initiated directly from the Defender portal or applied from Intune without involving the IT operations team."
"The cost can be high if you want to build custom license packages. Another area for improvement is the policies. In Azure, we need to implement policies in JSON format, but in 365 Defender 365, it would be helpful to use a different format so we can customize the platform."
"One of the biggest downsides of Microsoft products, in general, is that the menus are often difficult to find, as they tend to move from place to place between versions."
"In the future, it would be beneficial for Microsoft to consider making the product more user-friendly or simplified for those who are interested in using it. Currently, it requires a high level of technical expertise, making it challenging for beginners or less experienced individuals."
"The solution does not offer a unified response and standard data."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"Another area of improvement is CPU utilization. CPU utilization could be improved."
"Its configuration process is time-consuming."
"The computing resources are consuming and do not make sense."
"Scalability is a constraint in the on-prem version of Wazuh in terms of the volume of logs we can manage."
"The implementation is very complex."
"The deployment is a bit complex."
"A more structured approach, perhaps with modular UI components, to facilitate easier integration and navigation within the Wazuh platform for custom integrations would be beneficial."
"The only challenge we faced with Wazuh was the lack of direct support."
"While it is scalable, it can suffer from reduced latencies."
