Featured Reviews

Peter-Murphy - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables proactive threat detection and immediate response through AI monitoring
The most valuable feature of Darktrace is its ability to detect and counter threats before they occur. The autonomous response capability is always enabled, blocking threats immediately without hesitation. Additionally, the Darktrace email platform is a significant asset since it addresses incoming threats before they reach the network, enhancing our security measures. Protecting the business is essential, and ensuring security through 24/7 AI monitoring is invaluable.
Zaid Farooqui - PeerSpot reviewer
Helped our organization by providing a comprehensive picture of our cyber posture in terms of threat intelligence
The most valuable feature is the capability to correlate all the vulnerabilities or threats detected from different sources. It does a very good job in correlating and identifying threat actors. Its integration with other products such as HCI, Firewall, and VDI solution for native control and detection also adds significant value.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is that it gives us visibility of rogue traffic that is on the network."
"I particularly like Antigena and the analytics around the real-time monitoring of our network. I also like its reporting because it has got a seven-day reporting period within the system. Every time you run the reports, it gives you the data about the previous seven days. I like that because it is in real-time. I enjoy reading those reports and getting a very clear and decisive idea of what's happening on my network on a real-time basis. I like the actual real-time monitoring of spoofing and things like that. I also like the user monitoring as well as the network logging capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is the alerts. The alerts are meaningful. The event rolls up into meaningful and actionable alerts rather than just being noise."
"Ability to see events and exactly what traffic or website the device had tried to connect to that raised the alert or issue."
"The investigative part of Darktrace is valuable, especially the automation features. It allows setting up checks and provides guidance on mitigating situations, which is very useful. There are different modules that you can add to the console for protection."
"The solution is stable. We've never had any problems with it."
"A very useful feature in Darktrace for real-time threat analysis is the packet inspection that analyzes the packet traffic in real time."
"The most valuable feature of Darktrace is its ability to detect and counter threats before they occur."
"The tool is a good product in the NDR market. Its valuable features are ease of management and breach of response features. It is an easy-to-learn solution."
"The most valuable feature is the capability to correlate all the vulnerabilities or threats detected from different sources."
"Sangfor Cyber Command has helped our organization by providing a comprehensive picture of our cyber posture in terms of threat intelligence."
 

Cons

"Although we haven't detected any network threats since implementing Darktrace, we are unsure of its efficacy. It would be beneficial if the solution could offer additional details to the user regarding any potential or prevented threats. Additionally, there could be better search tools and integration."
"In the next version, I'd like to see penetration testing."
"Needs to improve its collaboration with local partners."
"I'd love them to see maybe covering the cloud a bit more."
"Getting logs from different sources can be a challenge."
"The management user interface needs improvement."
"It's a very complex platform."
"Darktrace could expand into EDR (endpoint detection and response) and combine it with its network detection."
"Technical support could be improved, and I rate them a seven. The support team has fewer cybersecurity resources capable of managing Cyber Command compared to other solutions."
"The product needs to improve its dashboard. Integration with existing systems has been challenging. When comparing it with Trend Micro, which offers an all-in-one NDR solution, the tool's integration process can be difficult."
"The solution could improve by incorporating email security."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We've budgeted about 50,000 Kuwaiti dinars for the solution. That is a yearly operating cost."
"The pricing is subscription-based and it is high."
"They are too expensive compared with other vendors."
"There is an annual license to use Darktrace."
"It is inexpensive considering what it can do and the competition."
"The price of Darktrace is high and could be reduced. We pay approximately $30,000 to $54,000 annually."
"This solution is expensive."
"The pricing is a little high compared to the competition."
