ExtraHop Reveal(x) can improve regarding integration capabilities. For instance, the market is getting really flooded with Microsoft Sentinel, and I know there is an integration possible, but the tools on the market right now indicate that integration should not be a skill from an integrator point of view. It should be quite easy for customers to integrate that solution into SOCs, SIEMs, or any other integration with other tools. There are various integrations from which there's a manual on how to do it, but specifically, the Microsoft portfolio, particularly Sentinel, integration is not yet there. If you score them on a scale of one to ten, ExtraHop scores around a 7.5 to an 8 on an integration basis, but there's actually room for improvement on that side. In the older days, ExtraHop had a license model where you could do all you can eat, so if you had a sensor with 10 gig of capacity, you could use all the entire 10 gig of throughput. They changed that to an asset-based license model, and that's an absolute downside of the solution, where it is harder for smaller companies to acquire the solution itself. That has given us quite some problems in positioning the solution properly within the network, so the licensing model is an absolute downside where they need to improve.

In terms of improvement, I have found sometimes ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 duplicates data a bit because it basically spans the data information from the sources within the network, so sometimes it's very hard to correlate data because it sometimes gets multiple feeds. I would to say that it needs to have some sort of internal check to validate data rather than duplicating from multiple sources so that we don't have to manually correct the source of truth.Plus, I think I would like to see continued improvements in AI-assisted threat hunting and natural language queries so the analysts can move from high-level detection to the relevant user, device, application, and network evidence with fewer manual pivots. Making advanced features easier for less experienced analysts to use would help organizations to get more value from the platforms. I would like to add one more thing: if we could have more customization of dashboards and role-based views, stronger out-of-the-box correlations with SIEM, EDR, and identity platforms, and maybe further automation of investigation response workflows, that will be great.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best features of ExtraHop Reveal(x) include the cloud-based Reveal(x) 360, which is an absolute plus; you've got one point of administration where you can attach multiple vendors or solutions or sensors, and that's good."
"The solution works well for sending sensors."
"Reveal X integrates seamlessly with CrowdStrike. If you see something sketchy on the network, you can quarantine devices through ExtraHop and it'll push to the CrowdStrike server."
"ExtraHop Reveal(x) is highly recommended and very good."
"It's a wire analytics tool. We use it for isolating and determining issues on our network or applications. It does a lot for crediting the network as opposed to discrediting the network. A lot of people come along and say that it's a network issue. It's always considered to be a network issue, but by using ExtraHop, we can quickly tell them that it's not a networking issue. It's something to do with your application or something at the other end. It could be a database issue. This tool gives us the ability to pinpoint with great accuracy the comings and goings on our network."
"Reveal(x)'s stability is excellent."
"The best features of ExtraHop Reveal(x) for me are the depth it provides, especially the picturization where the connection is established; it's absolutely remarkable."
"We had useful information within the hour of deployment. The ability to trace back for historical analysis, as well as the behavioral analysis done with the security information, puts the user in a position to make an informed decision to mitigate the performance or security incidents. Regarding the security incidents, Reveal (x) is able to create incident cards that guide your teams through the incidents and gives you the option to delve into the transaction detail to potentially view payloads as well."
"ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has positively impacted my organization by helping us detect abnormal activity on our network that we could not detect through our SIEM or XDR platform."
"Their technical support is more effective and of better quality than other competitors."
"It is scalable."
"It stands out for its intuitive and efficient user interface, robust detection capabilities with minimal false positives, and the ability to handle encrypted traffic, making it a valuable asset for network security and management."
"In terms of workload and pinpointing issues, ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has helped us a lot and made our life as network Level 3 support easier."
"ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 has undeniably improved our security posture, reduced manual investigation efforts, and facilitated fast threat detection mechanisms, which all help prevent costly potential breaches in enterprise environments."
"It is very easy to collect and handle data in ExtraHop Reveal(X) Cloud. Integration with Big Data is also easy. Many of our customers integrate it with Big Data platforms like Splunk or Elastic. It is also easy to handle and easy to understand."
 

Cons

"There is a little training online, but it'd be cool if ExtraHop provided certifications. CrowdStrike does elective training that gives you a certification as a Falcon administrator. It'd be nice to see ExtraHop have something like that"
"I think the tuning capabilities could be improved. We're working on minimizing false positives. Apart from that, everything seems fine to me."
"It needs integration with more security vendors."
"The solution's reporting part and GUI are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The support from ExtraHop Reveal(x) is sporadic, it can be good and it can be poor."
"Setting up ExtraHop is complex because we needed a nuanced understanding of the data flows into our data center."
"They used to have the ability to decode Citrix sign-on, setup, and tear down. Unfortunately, Citrix has stopped sharing that knowledge. Citrix has continued to change its model of processing, making it harder and harder to troubleshoot."
"ExtraHop Reveal(x) could improve by allowing a longer look back in the feature. Right now you have a limit of 30 days to look back on your activity. I've used Darktrace before, and they allow you the ability to play back events. This would be a good feature to have in ExtraHop Reveal(x)."
"One challenge with ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 is its pricing, which tends to be comparatively high in the marketplace."
"There needs to be more support."
"In terms of improvement, I have found sometimes ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 duplicates data a bit because it basically spans the data information from the sources within the network, so sometimes it's very hard to correlate data because it sometimes gets multiple feeds."
"I would like to see ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360 improved by integrating XDR features with NDR."
"Their professional service can be improved."
"They can include integration with SAP. Currently, no vendor provides network performance monitoring in the SAP market. It is a very big market. We have around 400 customers for SAP in Korea. In the USA, there are more than 10,000 customers."
"A drawback includes bucket storage limitations for payload data, necessitating timely extraction for thorough investigations."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the price a three out of five. It could be less expensive."
"The solution is based on an annual subscription model and is expensive."
"I rate the price of ExtraHop Reveal(x) a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is a high price, and ten is a low price."
"I rate ExtraHop Reveal(x) six out of 10 for affordability. We pay for an annual license. It's always one of those trade-offs. You get a lot of value, but ExtraHop isn't exorbitantly priced. You can pay extra for additional features like the ability to decode HL7 traffic, which is crucial for EMR environments."
"When compared to other solutions, it aligns with the market average, indicating a competitive pricing level."
