Nine out of ten times, they give me a solution even if it is not the solution I wanted, and I still can get to the result.
Information Technology Specialist at a media company with 201-500 employees
Discovering different troubleshooting methods is harder to do with Splunk SOAR than with Enterprise Security or other Splunk services.

I have worked with Splunk SOAR's technical support or customer service, which I find to be as perfect as Splunk SIEM
Global Head Of Security Architecture Digital & Technology at Aramex
They have a response time of forty-eight hours, which is not instant support.
SOC Analyst at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
In general, they usually provide continuous support post-implementation, being in touch and trying to help, which makes their after-sale process better than Splunk.

This can lead to alerts that are collections of disjointed signals that sometimes make no sense and lack real context; this simplistic approach makes it hard to find coherent stories during investigations.
CSO at Altera
I would also appreciate the AWS automation integrations to be more secure because currently, they are using access keys, which involves a user rather than roles, which is the security best practice recommended by AWS.

Setup Cost

Enterprise buyers find Torq's pricing high but worthwhile due to its modernization, automation, and strategic investment value.
Splunk SOAR's pricing is costly but considered cost-effective for automating workflows and reducing manual tasks for many users.
Sumo Logic Security offers mid-range pricing, balancing cost and functionality, with convenience through AWS Marketplace but increasing costs with usage.
When they bring more and more value into the platform, it makes more sense to pay that price, but still, it is expensive.
Senior Cyber Architect at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Before deciding to implement Torq, I considered that compared to our old case management platform, Torq was a much better price and had a lot better value for what you get out of the platform, which was a key consideration for the company.
CyberSecurity Engineer at a real estate/law firm with 10,001+ employees
It is an expensive solution, not an inexpensive solution, but we get through the flexibility.

It is way below what it costs to hire some professionals to do only that type of work.
Splunk Engineer at Data Elicit Solutions Pvt. Ltd.
Splunk SOAR is moderately priced, neither cheap nor overly expensive.
Splunk/SOAR Engineer
I am familiar with the pricing aspect, setup cost, and licensing cost of Splunk SOAR, and it is pretty much similar to what industries are offering these days.
Manager cybersecurity at Hexion Inc.
This makes it more cost-effective because other solutions often include a third element in their pricing.
Deputy Country Manager at PT Securite Asia Indonesia (ABP Securite)
From one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I would put Sumo Logic Security at a seven.
CISO / Founder / GRC at VINCTA BV
If you go to the well-known vendors such as Azure Sentinel or other tools like Splunk, you are going to find them costly since they are well-known and they have much more integration compared to Sumo Logic Security.

Splunk SOAR enhances productivity and security with seamless integrations, robust automation, and customizable playbooks for efficient threat response.
Sumo Logic Security offers comprehensive log aggregation, AI analytics, and scalability, enhancing detection, response, and operational efficiency.
Torq's unified platform approach to AI SOC automation and case management has significantly benefited us by integrating the case management platform with the automation, which saves time compared to managing multiple point solutions across our security stack.
CyberSecurity Engineer at a real estate/law firm with 10,001+ employees
The fact that I can build whatever I want within my own imagination and skills without relying on code is the best thing about Torq.
Director Of Cyber Security at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
You can copy and paste a cURL command. If you have documentation or APIs, you usually have an example on the side. You basically have all the information on how the API call should be. You can just copy that and paste it into a step, and it will just build the step for you.
Global IT Director at OpenWeb
Creating playbooks using the Playbook Editor in Splunk SOAR is easy. The editor is designed to be user-friendly with visual drag and drop features, allowing for easy workflows without writing any code.
Splunk/SOAR Engineer
Splunk SOAR saves time in threat response, and the time to solve an incident is currently the best in the market.
Strategic Account Executive at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
Splunk SOAR has improved our MTTD and MTTR both with the consolidation with a unified platform with Splunk.
Manager cybersecurity at Hexion Inc.
The features I find most useful in Sumo Logic Security are the ease of implementation and connectors; they have a very easy connection and many connectors to important systems, making it very easy to implement and fast to start running in production.
CSO at Altera
They are able to save time on fewer alerts because we are able to perform tuning on the logs to be able to only get relevant or security relevant incidents.
Senior Security Analyst at City Electric Supply Company
My SOC analysts were crushed under Splunk, but Sumo has actually eased the workload and made it tolerable for three people.

Nimrod Vardi - PeerSpot reviewer
Global IT Director at OpenWeb
Automation workflows have transformed our IT, enabling secure just-in-time access control
We work with them quite often, so we have a direct line regarding areas in Torq that have room for improvement. If we have a feature request, we can request it. I do not have anything in mind at the moment. We were a design partner for a short while, so we feel that they listen and that users of the system have an impact on the way the system is designed for the better. They have a new community, which is something that I personally suggested years ago. There are many people like me in different places and they might have already built the workflow that I need. Having the option to share workflows or to jump on a thread and say I have this need, did anyone ever build a workflow for it, is amazing. Someone would jump in and say yes, sure, here, take this workflow. I think this is an amazing thing and I really hope that the community will come alive because I think this is really powerful. This is something that I already suggested and it did happen eventually, and I am quite happy with it. I do not have any specific feature in mind that I have a need for at the moment.

Automates threat response and reduces investigation time but needs better threat intelligence integration
One thing that we would like to see with Splunk SOAR is the expandability to the threat intelligence feed. Currently, we have limited ingestion to the threat intelligence feed for the correlation purpose. We would like to see it being integrated, with license cost or without license cost, to leading threat intelligence sources such as Recorded Future, Feedly, or Flare. That is something we would appreciate having integrated. The second thing on the improvement side is about exposed credential-related information. If we start ingesting those data to Splunk SOAR or SIEM with some sort of integration with threat intelligence feed, that will also improve our detection and prediction method or help us with the investigation.

Security insights have enabled faster incident response and streamlined cross-team collaboration
To improve Sumo Logic Security, I would appreciate the tool being easier to use from a search perspective. For example, we have a few teams that want to use the tool itself, but they are not as savvy when it comes to creating searches from the core platform. I understand that Mobot has come out and is in the works, and it really does assist non-savvy users when it comes to querying the platform. As far as that is concerned, I wish that could be improved a bit more, but I do know that that is in the works. I would add that I wish for improved documentation. For example, we are using Sumo Playbooks and automation integrations along with that, but I have found that there has been a lack of documentation, very little to none at all when it comes to that. With regards to automation integrations as well, there are very few details included in them. I would also appreciate the AWS automation integrations to be more secure because currently, they are using access keys, which involves a user rather than roles, which is the security best practice recommended by AWS. I chose eight out of ten because to make it a nine or ten, I would lean heavily on the documentation. A lot of the times when we get around to configuring things such as playbooks or trying to understand playbooks, what I found was that documentation sometimes is not up to date or documentation is lacking. There are instances also where some security best practices are not being followed. So, if we are able to set up an integration that is not only secure, following security best practices, and has complete documentation, I believe it would alleviate the issue of having to go back and forth with support to check the documentation and things of that nature. My impression of the built-in threat intelligence feature in Sumo Logic Security is that it is comprehensive, but I would say that it could do a little bit better. For example, we have the TAXI feeds, which is STIX and TAXI integrated into the core platform, but the issue I am running into is that I am able to use that feed into a CSE alert; however, I am not able to see the contents of that feed. If I integrate CISA, which we do have integrated, I cannot see what IOCs are in that feed in the core platform, and I hope that is the case because, in order for us to better tune our alerts, we need to be able to see what is in the contents of that threat intelligence feed.
