AMBARISH PATKAR - PeerSpot reviewer
Centralized control effectively manages devices while updates require powered-on systems
I use Bitdefender GravityZone EDR for the grooming industry. It is primarily utilized for the office environment The features I find most effective for threat detection include centralized control policy distribution and the control of independent devices, such as printers, laptops, and desktops…
SupravatMaji - PeerSpot reviewer
Beneficial single unified dashboard, good native application integration, and high availability
My advice to those wanting to implement RSA NetWitness Network is they have to first do a little due diligence, such as the exact requirement based on their needs. That will give them a direction for their investment because otherwise, the bill of material or bill of quantity (BOQ) may be higher side. It is important to do good due intelligence on the environment, see the exact requirement, and then go ahead with the solution. The solution is perfectly stable. I rate RSA NetWitness Network a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable features are the solution's thorough detection and ease of use."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The tool's graphical user interface is common and very friendly, making it an overall user-friendly product."
"Go for Bitdefender GravityZone EDR without any second thought."
"They are constantly updating the solution against malware."
"The product is stable. It has a small footprint, but it does a lot of heavy lifting."
"I have access to it from anywhere."
"RSA NetWitness does market analysis in a more granular form. It gives you full visibility."
"The interface of this solution is very flexible and easy to use."
"Technical support is knowledgeable."
"The most valuable feature of RSA NetWitness Network is the single unified dashboard from which you can manage all the different products of RSA. Additionally, the integration with native applications is good."
"This solution allows us to locate the malware in real-time."
"It is stable. We have been using it for some time, without any issues."
"The most valuable feature is the way it captures the traffic, and it contains every detail of the communication."
"It's a scalable solution. We have around five to eight customers using RSA NetWitness Endpoint, and we hope to increase the number of users."
 

Cons

"The one thing that we are missing and want to see is user analytics. So, that is what I'm really interested in: behavior analytics and end user behavior."
"I have not had used the EDR portion of the solution to do any custom scripting to allow further advanced operations on the endpoints. From what I understand from reading the comments on reviews is that it is not particularly flexible in this regard."
"Sometimes, the platform takes a while to allow connectivity on the Mac endpoints."
"Other solutions are cheaper than GravityZone."
"The product fails to provide guides to its users...I want the tool to offer some guides and hands-on training that can guide users who want to learn more about the product without the vendor's help."
"The stability must be improved."
"The reporting is much too simple."
"There was a bit of a problem deploying."
"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."
"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."
"Threat detection could be better."
"The integration of the solution needs to be improved. The dashboard needs lots of updates as well. In the next release, we would like to see advanced fraud detection features."
"The initial setup requires a high level of skill."
"The solution is modular, for example you can buy the RSA ePack, which you buy as a module is not part of the conduit solution. They could include it and have it as an all-in-one solution."
"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."
"The deployment process is complex. I don't know why, but this solution will suddenly stop working. Logs stop coming. Often, one thing or another stops working. Most of the time, one of my team members is working with troubleshooting and working with technical support. Log passing is also one of the biggest challenge."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are different packages available that vary in terms of licensing fees."
"The product has a reasonable price."
"The pricing for Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra is not that high. It's okay for its service, so I would download it on my personal computer and buy it for myself as a customer."
"If you look at the solution's price point, it's actually low market value, especially in comparison to other ones."
"Price-wise, we have a better licensing agreement with Bitdefender than we did with competing vendors."
"There is a fully functional trial that we used and we didn't have any issues."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is cost-effective and has the best pricing."
"The solution is affordable."
"It is an expensive product."
"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."
"The pricing is not very economical. It is a quite costly product for India. One thing is that when you purchase it, you have to purchase a module separately."
"With RSA, there is flexibility in choosing the service, products, and the range that meets your requirement, as well as they are flexible in terms of pricing."
"The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."
"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."
"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."
"They can easily adjust if you have the requirements which are required. If you have a budget cut or a budget constraint, they can bend."
