Featured Reviews

Ch342 - PeerSpot reviewer
Continuously improving and comes with automated response and SIEM/SOC
This is the third company I've worked with, and I've brought them in as a provider. For me, it's as good as it gets. Nobody likes to talk about tens, but they have a better record of detection than CrowdStrike, and they didn't shut down the world like CrowdStrike. If you really dig down into it, who are the founders of the companies? On the one hand, you have a guy who used to be a consultant, I believe, and we know they're full of it. On the other hand, you got a guy who hacked into an Israeli bank, I think, when he was about 15 years old. They eventually hired him, and now this is his third startup. So, when you look at it that way, there's no comparison.

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.
