Find out what your peers are saying about CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Wazuh and others in Extended Detection and Response (XDR)."Microsoft 365 Defender's most valuable feature is the ability to control the shadow IP."
"The incident threat response and its ability to facilitate effective remediation against threats are the standout features."
"The most valuable feature depends on the scenario. For compliance, I like Microsoft Purview Information Protection and Data Loss Prevention. Sentinel is the most helpful feature for security. 365 Defender helps us prioritize threats across an enterprise. It's a crucial feature for the managed services team."
"In Microsoft 365 vendor products, monitoring and connectivity across all Microsoft and third-party connectors enable viewing of all activity within those environments."
"The 'Incidents and Alerts' tab is a valuable feature where we can find triggered alerts."
"Defender is easy to use. It has a nice console, and everything is all in one place."
"The product integrates security into one tool instead of having third-party security tools."
"All of the security components are valuable including, antiphishing, antispam, and stage three antivirus."
"You can advise the solution and protect your environment."
"I like Wazuh because it is a lot like ELK, which I was already comfortable with, so I didn't have to learn from scratch."
"It's stable."
"It has efficient SCA capabilities."
"Wazuh has very flexible and robust features."
"It's very easy to integrate Wazuh with other environments, cloud applications, and on-prem applications. So, the advantage is that it's easy to implement and integrate with other solutions."
"Wazuh offers an enhanced HDR version that outperforms its competitors."
"Wazuh's most beneficial features for our security needs are flexibility, built-in rules, integration capabilities, and documentation."
"The log monitoring and analysis tools are great in addition to SIEM file activity monitoring."
"Advanced attacks could use an improvement."
"Microsoft tends to provide too many features, which makes the solution prone to bugs."
"The capability to not only thwart attacks but also to adapt to evolving threats is crucial."
"The tool gives inconsistent answers and crashes a lot."
"The solution does not offer a unified response and standard data."
"This solution could be improved if it included features such as those offered by Malwarebytes."
"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."
"There is definitely scope for improvement in the automation area. Because the solution is a SaaS platform, we don't have the overall ability to automate stuff.... There is no direct way to go ahead because it's a SaaS platform."
"The solution should have better reporting."
"The biggest part that's missing is threat intelligence. It isn't inbuilt, and if a sudden incident occurs, we don't get that feedback inside the SIEM tool. That's a big gap, I see. It would be better if we could get the threat intelligence feeds integrated with the SIEM tools. That would help us push value solutions to the clients in a big way."
"Wazuh is missing many things that a typical SIEM should have."
"The computing resources are consuming and do not make sense."
"I think that the next release should be more suitable for large enterprises, because currently they are not because large companies do not rely on open source solutions."
"The technical support can be improved. Wazuh has some bugs that need to be fixed. It would be good if we can have automation with respect to incidence responses."
"The tool does not provide CTI to monitor darknet."
"Since it's an open-source tool, scalability is the main issue."
"There could be a hardware monitoring tool for the solution."
