Why Would I Choose Sentinel Rather Than Splunk or Fortinet?
Sentinel was developed by Microsoft and is thoroughly integrated with all the other Microsoft products you already use. It has plenty of features you will find useful:
Data collection: Collects data at scale across all users, devices, applications, and infrastructure, both on-premises and in multiple cloud estates.
Threat Intelligence: A comprehensive view of your security posture and threat landscape by integrating with lots of security products, including Microsoft Defender for endpoint, Office 365, and Cloud App Security.
AI and Automation: Analyses data, detects threats, and helps you investigate and respond to cyber incidents.
Breadth of Capability
Sentinel will be an important piece of your cyber defence - but is only part of it. Work with a Partner who can help you take a comprehensive approach: from audit to end-point protection, and from penetration testing to outsourced identity management services.
Check if your partner has the proper certifications so you know you’re in capable hands.
Great Support
Ask your prospective Sentinel partner what their NPS score is. What is NPS? A Net Promoter Score is a customer loyalty metric that predicts the likelihood of a customer repurchasing from you or referring your company to a friend. The benchmark for UK IT service providers is 62.
If they don't measure NPS or their score is less than 62 - look elsewhere.
Skills
Great support is made up of many things, and skills are an area you should turn your focus to on.
Should an issue happen, will the first person you’re talking to know enough about Sentinel to help you then and there? It’s not enough to have tech experts; the people who handle the support desk should also be clued up on Sentinel.
Ask the question and find out if your business is in the right hands before you sign.
