Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Integration of InsightOps with other tools, especially SIEM solutions, has generally improved operational efficiency.""The most valuable feature of Rapid7 InsightOps is the search functionality.""We can save logs as plain text.""The ability to browse logs from multiple sources at the same time really speeds up root cause analysis.""It has the ability to alert and track logs from different sources."

"The new cloud-based panel is excellent both for client review as well as for our SOC to review and respond to threats. It is much easier to configure and use than the previous solution from AlienVault.​""The other big selling feature for us was its integration capabilities with all the other security-based products.""The main menu: You can see everything there, what is happening on the servers, and in the logs, you can view more details of each event.""The most valuable feature is threat intelligence.""Any unusual behaviour, we can monitor. We have alerts set up to be sent when we receive signs of any unusual behaviour.""AT&T AlienVault USM is good for ELK Stack, the user experience is great because of its architecture. The ELK has a great performance and it has very good speed in the search and Kibana. Additionally, the visuals and dashboards and very nice and customizable.""AlienVault has an advanced component within one package. With this, we can cover more area with one solution.""We are able to get alerts perfectly with FIM and VA features."

Cons
"Rapid7 InsightOps could improve by making the search query better. There are times when the search query is broken and it does not find anything.""There are a few things I would like to do with a few more complex queries which I am not able to do right now, because it is a SaaS solution.""Improvement is needed in the dashboard of InsightOps, especially for less technical users.""The solution takes a little bit of time when we load the website for the first time.""Since I used the beta, improvements are to be expected. The dashboard options could have been clearer, but I believe it is more a problem with the limited documentation available at the time."

"The vulnerability scanning feature is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings and needs to improve. The tool has vulnerability scanning, but it is not that efficient.""The dashboard could be improved as well as the level of customization.""It was easy on PoC, but when we got to the product it was different story. We had to learn the product again and got feeling that the PoC was a different product.""I've been using it just for my own personal upskilling in terms of how the product works. At the moment, it is pretty straightforward and simple, and it is working how it is supposed to. The feedback would come once it is deployed to customer sites. They'll be using it on a more frequent basis, and that's when the feedback would come in terms of the areas in which they're facing issues or are looking for simplicity.""The reporting is mediocre and is something that needs to be improved.""The AT&T AlienVault USM is okay, but the relational database is not very good for large amounts of data. For example, many logs cannot be processed. It has been very slow for the queries and some data which are large, it is not very good in this case.""The vulnerability reporting needs to have options to be able to sort or customize the output.""We develop additional rules and scripts to make it more usable."

  • "Pricing is very competitive with other products and you get much more functionality from AlienVault."

  • "We checked out several competitors. For what it can do and the cost, it was the best option!"
