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.

"Technical support is knowledgeable."

"This solution allows us to locate the malware in real-time."

Cons

"I do not know the detailed pricing."

"It would be helpful to have more details about the monitoring of the infrastructure. It should have support for SNMP. This is something that is currently not there in the product."

"If there was better visualization in Flowmon Solution it would be good."

"The licensing price could be better."

"The solution lacks a reporting engine."

"The initial setup requires a high level of skill."

"NetWitness Endpoint's blocking feature does not work properly - if there's a malicious process, it's not possible to kill it via a custom rule unless and until it's flagged as malicious."

"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."

"When analyzing something, you have to click several times. It requires a lot of effort to find something."

"We would like to see the hunting and investigation features of this solution improved, in order to provide better visibility of issues."

"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."

"The contamination feature could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing fee accrues only once, but that of support is annual."

"It works with a permanent license, and then you can pay for the support. For the gold support, you need to pay yearly."

"The price of the solution could be better."

"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."

"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."

"The cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."

"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."

"It is an expensive product."

"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."

"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."

"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."
