Scalable platform with intuitive features for detecting malicious files

The initial setup process is straightforward. We have to install the agent, create a package, and deploy it on servers. It has a prebuilt console managed by the cloud team of Cybereason. We don't have to worry about the console and concentrate on endpoint implementation. It takes ten days to deploy it on 10,000 devices.

A solution that offers easy setup and deployment phases, along with great scalability and stability

I rate the initial setup a ten out of ten. The solution's initial setup was very straightforward. The solution is deployed on an on-premises and cloud model. The cloud services are provided by Rapid7. The solution can be deployed in half a day or four hours in a small environment. I was the only person involved in the product's deployment phase.

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 was easy and straightforward."

"The initial setup is not overly complicated."

"Their EDR solution, the ability to mitigate issues through their command line, is probably the best feature that we've had. We use that all the time. It's very useful for doing investigations."

"For me, the technical support is good."

"The initial setup was straightforward."

"The solution is efficient."

"The initial setup process is straightforward."

"We didn't have the visibility that we now have. It has increased our visibility by a lot. So, we put a lot more time into really looking at our environment and what is happening throughout our different networks. It has increased our visibility by around fivefold."

More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response pros

"I like that it's a cloud-based solution."

"The solution is very scalable in terms of the licensing model."

"The incident case management is the most valuable feature. Even though there's always something I find I would like to add to that feature, the ability to quickly sort through all the logs, network and endpoint data, etc., and add it to an incident case as part of the investigation, is nice. Having it automatically timeline that additional data into the original incident timeline, and correlate it to other notable events and activities on the network, results in a huge improvement in our overall confidence that we've quickly traced down the right source of an issue."

"The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"User behavioral analytics allows us to pinpoint abnormal or suspicious behavior among millions of events every day."

"InsightIDR’s ability to process millions of transactions per day, and to notify me of the most critical ones, is priceless. InsightIDR has the alerts tuned, and has the ability to quickly drill down to determine the threat level."

"The alerting to drive investigations and remediation has been its most valuable feature."

"We were able to identify criminals attempting to login from China and put a stop on their IP locations."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

Cons

"There can be problems with the EDI."

"It initially took some time to deploy."

"While the product is very good, there are still some areas for improvement. The initial triage area could be a bit simpler. They get into the weeds real fast; it gets very detailed very fast. I am still looking for an easier triage layer on top with the ability to dig deeper."

"The deployment on individual endpoints is more geared toward larger organizations. It might prove to be a bit too complicated for a smaller organization. You need to know what you're doing when you're deploying the sensor."

"The integration with Microsoft solutions and Microsoft capabilities needs to be improved."

"There is room for improvement in the product features related to device control, particularly USB management."

"Reporting could be a bit more granular so that we had the ability to check regions and countries. I just noticed that, for instance, if I look at our servers, it's either "contained" or it's "not contained". I don't have the option, for instance, to look at countries. It only allows me to look at users as one big group."

"Cybereason does not have sandbox functionality."

More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response cons

"Lacks a mobile application."

"The integration capabilities of the solution have certain shortcomings where improvements are required."

"Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition."

"Cloud risk assessment is one area where I think they need a lot of improvement."

"I feel it would greatly benefit from more supported log sources."

"The reporting is the weakest aspect. There needs to be multi-level grouping for events (for example, group by user and destination). Right now, we can do a group by user and a separate table or group by destination. But I'd be more interested in where a person was logging into instead of who was logging in or where he was logging in."

"Needs a better ability to customize the check within the console."

"InsightIDR is only available in a cloud version. Some of our customers prefer an on-prem solution because they want to manage the security within their environment."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."

"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."

"We considered a few other solutions. Some were ridiculously overpriced, while others didn't have solutions for Mac endpoints. That was a deal-breaker because most of our organization is on Mac. It came down to two vendors: Cybereason and another. They had similar pitches and almost identical approaches, but in the end, Cybereason gave us the best value for our money."

"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."

"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."

"The pricing is manageable."

"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."

More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response pricing and cost advice

"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."

"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."

"I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability."

"Licensing is straightforward. If, for some reason, you don’t meet the minimum licensing requirements, there is a third-party managed service that can help."

"The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help."

"Licensing is by endpoint and amount of retention time (at least ours is). Default retention was one year, but we are able to push the retention further if needed. There's also a provide-your-own-S3 option for longer retention if you don't want to pay for the additional retention years in your Rapid7 agreement."

"Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable but we have challenges with the Minimum Order Quantity. It is not reasonable for customers who have less than one hundred devices. If they can reduce Minimum Order Quantity, it is good. You have to pay around 5000-6000 dollars per year for the product. The pricing includes maintenance and support costs."
