Which should a lean team choose?

Choose Intezer if

  • it matters most that it investigates end to end (8/10)
  • it matters most that it shows its reasoning (7/10)

Choose Intezer if endpoint and malware alerts dominate your queue, or if you want a cost unit that does not rise with alert volume. Look elsewhere first if you need fine-grained autonomy settings or to retire a SOAR.

Choose Prophet if

  • it matters most that it investigates end to end (8/10)
  • it matters most that it autonomy you can dial (8/10)

Choose Prophet Security if you want native response with explicit sign-off, single-tenant hosting with your own keys, or a human review service at night. Look elsewhere first if you want existing SOAR playbooks translated or a published price.
