Subhash Sreenivasan - PeerSpot reviewer
Roughly 800 to 1000 integrations available with various security products and applications and offers built-in SOAR capabilities
The documentation part is something that needs to be improved, as well as the threat intelligence investigation part. Logpoint has a kind of site to describe what kinds of threats they are investigating. But that, I think, maybe Logpoint can improve more. The threat investigations and reporting to the end-users can be improved. Logpoint can also come up with IR [incident response] capabilities. Other important SIEM solutions have some IR services. If I am an MSSP working with LogPoint for SIEM/SOAR solutions and I need immediate support, I should be able to get some support. It can be paid support, like SecureWorks, which has those kinds of functionalities. They will immediately get in and start working on helping us identify the threats, isolate them, and give us remedies to take care of and recover from any kind of attacks. Whereas in LogPoint, that functionality is missing. We will be on our own if something happens. We will get other support from them, but there's no paid support before taking ownership and helping us recover from those kinds of attacks. They have a kind of integration for AI, but the incident response capability is what they should improve.
JensWolf - PeerSpot reviewer
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 most valuable feature of LogPoint is that they have the SIEM and SOAR combined in one solution. They are not on a separate platform."
"The solution's user interface is quite simple, and the integration is better than other products."
"Log collection, dashboards and reporting are good."
"It is an AI technology because it is using machine learning technology. So far, there is nothing better out there for UEBA in terms of monitoring endpoints and user activity. It is using machine learning language, so it is right at the top. It provides that capability and monitors all the activities. It devises a baseline and monitors if there is any deviation from the baseline."
"The product is easy to use."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"They basically charge you in a better way."
"The most valuable features are the ones that we use the most, which are the search and report facilities."
"It improves because several sensors are deployed within the on-premise environment. It can be very efficient if the customer implements and operates it effectively."
"The solution is very scalable in terms of the licensing model."
"The biggest reason why we chose Rapid7 was to gain value in a really quick time. Its deployment doesn't take months. It just takes a few days."
"Rapid7's reporting is more robust than Tenable's."
"I like the tool's user analysis feature."
"The solution provides satisfying native integration features"
"InsightIDR has allowed us to find potential security issues that we did not know existed, and get remediation quickly."
"If you were on other solutions, you would notice that they use agents from third-party, from open-source, from a native OS, or from other tools. Here, however, it is an agent from Rapid7 itself. This adds to the solution's overall capabilities."
 

Cons

"Sometimes, the product is not stable."
"Logpoint is not flexible. Its documentation is not user-friendly."
"In terms of functionality, it is very good. The only issue is the documentation. Its documentation should be improved."
"The solution should offer more integrations and third-party solutions like incident response platforms or allow access to third-party big data"
"Nowadays the trend is going towards the ransomware and the endpoint detection and response. So if they added something for that, that will be very, very good."
"Log management could be better because transporting the log from a password to the client system takes time."
"LogPoint can improve its dashboards. We are not able to customize the dashboard when creating them. They only have preset dashboards which do not have exactly what we are looking for."
"One of the things we faced last year was that we had some memory issues with the server running. We were running them as virtual services, and we were facing some performance issues. Back then, there were some things that had already been solved at the end, but one of the small issues we had was that it was quite memory-consuming. After one upgrade that we did, we faced some performance issues."
"The integration capabilities of the solution have certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The main problem lies in the processes within the client's operating systems."
"I feel it would greatly benefit from more supported log sources."
"Needs a better ability to customize the check within the console."
"It takes time for the product's support team to resolve issues, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The dashboard is an area that could be simplified."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR is not intuitive to search for logs. It should be more user-friendly and improve the dashboards. We should be able to use ready-made templates instead of having to build one."
"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I would rate LogPoint's pricing a seven. It is not very expensive compared to some of the more costly products, and it is not very cheap compared to some of the cheaper products in the SIEM market."
"It was on a yearly basis at about $100K. It was not a huge environment. We were running it on our own virtual server environment, which, of course, had a cost. There was hardware and some energy cost, and then there were Microsoft Windows licenses for servers. That's all, but there was nothing in comparison to the licensing costs."
"For a hundred user deployment the cost is about $10,000. The next year it would be the same because it's a subscription-based license. There are separate costs as well, for example, if a customer asks for training for their staff."
"It has a fixed price, which is what I like about LogPoint. I bought the system and paid for it, and I pay maintenance. It is not a consumption model. Most SIEMs or most of the log management systems are consumption-based, which means that you pay for how many logs you have in the system. That's a real problem because logs can grow very quickly in different circumstances, and when you have a variable price model, you never know what you're going to pay. Splunk is notoriously expensive for that reason. If you use Splunk or QRadar, it becomes expensive because there are not just the logs; you also have to parse the logs and create indexes. Those indexes can be very expensive in terms of space. Therefore, if they charge you by this space, you can end up paying a significant amount of money. It can be more than what you expect to pay. I like the fact that LogPoint has a fixed cost. I know what I'm going to pay on a yearly basis. I pay that, and I pay the maintenance, and I just make it work."
"It's getting more expensive, which is one of the reasons we're looking around just to see if there's anything better value."
"Our licensing fees are about $10,000 USD per month, which I think is fair."
"It's less expensive than the competitors. The Logpoint marketing team is very accommodating and client-friendly. They offer very good reductions in price. They are pretty good in this aspect. They are transparent in their licensing and pricing."
"LogPoint seemed like it was a good product, but it was expensive and there wasn't any room to move the pricing when customers needed a lower-costing solution."
"It is a reasonably priced solution."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."
"I rate Rapid7 InsightIDR's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."
"The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help.​"
"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."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR is priced very well and is cost-effective."
