By framing

Which of the six questions produced the naming. By model says how often; this says asked what. The first-choice count on the right carries the marks of the models that produced it.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“Choose IBM QRadar SOAR if compliance and standardized incident response are top priorities” Kimi K2 · SOAR · comparative prompt · alternative

“A robust, enterprise-grade solution that tightly couples with IBM\u2019s QRadar SIEM.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · SOAR · comparative prompt · alternative

“Strong for larger enterprises with complex incident-response and compliance needs.” GPT-5.4 mini · SOAR · comparative prompt · alternative

“Best for: Highly regulated, risk-averse, or on-premises enterprise environments.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · SOAR · comparative prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“This is arguably the biggest "avoid" right now, primarily due to lifecycle/roadmap risk” DeepSeek V4 Flash · SOAR · negative prompt · hard negative

“Frequent integration issues, API performance problems, app quality complaints” Kimi K2 · SOAR · negative prompt · hard negative

“Avoid for new deployments.” Gemini 3.5 Flash · SOAR · negative prompt · hard negative

“Known vulnerabilities: Has had multiple security advisories ... Recommendation: Requires vigilant patching and security updates.” GLM 4.7 FlashX · SOAR · negative prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named IBM QRadar SOAR. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 52 of the 63 answers that named IBM QRadar SOAR and are not a share of its labels.

Is this your product?

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when IBM QRadar SOAR's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as IBM QRadar SOAR, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at ibm.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
