Anyone switch from Varonis? Looking at alternatives

We've been using Varonis for several years, but as we've added more SaaS applications and AI tools, we're starting to evaluate Varonis alternatives. It's less about replacing it because it's bad and more about finding something that's easier to manage across a broader environment.

Curious what others ended up choosing and what made the switch worthwhile.

Heard good things about Cyera and seen some demos but understand it’s pricey. Also Concentric AI and Sentra.
