Featured Reviews

SohailHyder - PeerSpot reviewer
Head Of Cyber Security at Super Secure
Has supported compliance needs for mid-sized organizations but lacks customization and advanced integration
If we pitch Rapid7 InsightIDR against solutions such as SIEMs from Splunk or LogRhythm, it is not as customizable as a SIEM solution is. This is where it can improve if we keep in front the feature sets of a complete SIEM solution. Most common in the market is QRadar, but it is depleting now. It has been taken over by some other products such as Splunk and LogRhythm. If we compare these things with Rapid7 InsightIDR, then there are definitely some gaps that need to be filled. Data retention is also one concern because Rapid7 InsightIDR is cloud-based and operates on a subscription model. Whatever data you want to retain, it has to be paid for separately or it has a cost. Other solutions that are on-premises can have their own infrastructure or they provide some data retention for a month or in some capacity-wise, they provide that solution to them which makes them more attractive.

Support both French and English, which is important for us and adapted to the evolving security landscape over time in my experience
You need a skilled engineer to deploy it because you can do anything with this tool. You can see everything on the network. A good engineer will be surprised and have fun using this tool because it's very powerful. Deployment process: You need to build a recipe/layout when you want to deploy something. Once the recipe is done, you just have to copy it. So you really need a good engineer at first, but then any other technician can copy the recipe. You don't need to be an expert once the recipe is finalized. So, once you have it set up, it's easy to deploy. But you need a good engineer to deploy it correctly. You will get alerts from the system, but if you want to fully explore and maximize the tool, the engineering needs are different.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Great coverage of all systems within our network from endpoint to firewall."
"The solution is very intuitive, it's easy to set up, is absolutely stable, and has a lot of integration with other security products."
"InsightIDR has allowed us to find potential security issues that we did not know existed, and get remediation quickly."
"Previously, when something happened, such as when a hacker was attacking one of our customers, we were always behind, or we did not know that we were hacked until the ransomware started, but with the Rapid7 solution, at every step, we could online see what a person was doing, and we could prevent ransomware."
"I have seen that Rapid7 InsightIDR provides security to the networks and endpoints in the company."
"The log aggregation and storage provided by InsightIDR has shown no issues with scalability; aggregating over one hundred millions events daily."
"Rapid7's reporting is more robust than Tenable's."
"It gives all the advantages of a SIEM, however, using clever AI, it looks for patterns of behavior rather than just flooding me with all the alerts."
"RSA enVision provides the full system visibility of your events within your IT ecosystem."
"We developed around this solution and received excellent support from the company."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the reporting."
"The configuration part is very easy...The technical support was sincere in their responses...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"The custom dashboard and correlation alerts in this solution improved our incident response process."
"The most valuable feature is the management features. It's capable of managing large enterprises."
"The ease of log collection and stability of the platform are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"InsightIDR's integration with other solutions could be improved. Also, I'd like more control from the portal over what's happening on the endpoint side. For example, when I see an attack on an endpoint, I want to be able to stop it from the portal."
"Sometimes, it is hard to get the right queries to use. Currently, the tool lacks a pre-made set of queries."
"Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition."
"If we pitch Rapid7 InsightIDR against solutions such as SIEMs from Splunk or LogRhythm, it is not as customizable as a SIEM solution is."
"The ability to tune the collector for custom logs would greatly help."
"The APIs can be further improved in Rapid7."
"The interface for doing investigation needs to be enhanced with minor improvements that would make it more useful."
"I'd like to see a mobile application included and some feature related to the generality of segregation for internal users that access the application."
"Sometimes the investigation panel and reporting engine work very slowly."
"Whenever you perform the query, it takes too long."
"In general, the solution currently isn't user-friendly."
"RSA enVision log manager is out of date and is not in use anymore."
"There is no future for this solution. It does not exist anymore."
"The integration could be easier, it should support more products."
"Licensing could be improved to be more oriented towards Managed Service Providers (MSPs)."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"​I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability.​"
"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."
"It is a reasonably priced solution."
"It is on a yearly basis. For our own company, for about 250 users, it was 16,000 euros a year."
"The pricing and licensing are competitive."
"​Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product.​"
"The solution has a mid-range price point in the market"
"I rate Rapid7 InsightIDR's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high price, I rate the pricing a six."
"We no longer pay a licensing fee because it is out of date and don't pay for support."
