Helps in the management of compliance, secret events and information

One of our customers had a Huawei firewall and we required help to do the configuration. However, the installation was easy with other standard vendors like Cisco and Check Point. The product's deployment got completed in four to five days and we required three people to handle it. One person was in charge of the portal's initial set up and the other one handled the integration of on-premises devices. The third one took care of Office 365 integration.

Reduces organizational risk, low on machine load, and helps prevent ransomware

The most important aspect of the solution is that the load on the machine is not very high. It doesn't take up battery resources. The solution prevents ransomware and other threats. So far, it is working brilliantly. The dashboards and UI are user friendly, as is the ability to configure as needed. It seems to have a lot more capabilities. The XDR capabilities, in particular, look very strong. We're currently looking into that. If we want to do integrations with third parties, we don't have very many challenges around that. The ability to ingest and correlate across our security solutions is very useful. It's impressive. The AI engine it has is excellent. It helps us consolidate our security solutions. While it does not allow us to reduce alerts per se, it does a good job of correlating. The way it's integrated into the SIM, it's working to the expectations we have. The solution helps free up people so that they can work on other tasks. We don't have to grow our team too much now. My security team is actually quite small - about five people. We all get more time to handle other tasks. We've noted that it does help reduce mean time to respond. We can identify events easier and those that are most critical are brought to the forefront. Previously, we were in the dark. Now we have so much more visibility. It's been a huge improvement. It's effectively helped to reduce organizational risk.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten. As a cloud tool, the product is highly scalable."

"The solution provides satisfying native integration features"

"The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"User behavioral analytics allows us to pinpoint abnormal or suspicious behavior among millions of events every day."

"I like the tool's user analysis feature."

"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."

"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."

"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."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

"The solution's in-place upgrades have been very helpful."

"I really love how simple and effective the product is. I really love the visibility it gives me into the endpoint. I really love that they open their product to the customer to enhance it with custom-made software, giving you the APIs to program it. Those are all things competitors don't have."

"The most valuable features of SentinelOne are the endpoint detection of threats, and it does not only rely on signatures for detection."

"Being able to keep track of the endpoints and the data that is available from the endpoints is valuable. We can see the patch levels, whether Windows endpoints are active or inactive, and who is the last user that was logged on. We get a lot of granular information that is valuable even what we are not talking from a security standpoint."

"Singularity's rollback feature is one of the primary reasons we bought the product. If there's an attack on the machine, the system can automatically roll back the data and the hard drive of the machine that was attacked."

"The most valuable features of SentinelOne Singularity Complete are machine learning because it saves us time, device control for data privacy, and the token."

"Scalable endpoint protection solution that takes seconds to set up per device. It has a rollback feature and offers good technical support."

"It gives you good visibility of any threats or vulnerabilities that you might have on your network."

Cons

"Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition."

"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"

"The solution needs improvement in threat intelligence. Increasing the depth of intelligence to help users understand more about threats is a possibility. My suggestion is to expand access to other websites or resources."

"It takes time for the product's support team to resolve issues, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."

"InsightIDR is only available in a cloud version. Some of our customers prefer an on-prem solution because they want to manage the security within their environment."

"Needs a better ability to customize the check within the console."

"The interface for doing investigation needs to be enhanced with minor improvements that would make it more useful."

"They should add more configuration and security features to it."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

"They need to improve how we install the software."

"The delay in updating inventory is ten minutes. If it can be improved, it will help a lot."

"DLP support would be a good addition."

"Communication and documentation could be improved."

"We ran into production issues related to CPU utilization on Linux endpoints. Our production environment's performance got degraded like anything."

"There is an area of improvement is agent health monitoring, which would give us the ability to cap and manage resources used by the SentinelOne agent. We had issues with this in our environment. We reached out to SentinelOne about it, and they were very prompt in adding it into their roadmap."

"The compatibility with new legacy systems should be enhanced as other EDR products support these systems, which Singularity does not."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete should focus on analytical data. Backend aggregation can make things faster in the front end."

More SentinelOne Singularity Complete cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Rapid7 InsightIDR is priced very well and is cost-effective."

"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable."

"The pricing and licensing are competitive."

"Licensing is by endpoint and amount of retention time (at least ours is). Default retention was one year, but we are able to push the retention further if needed. There's also a provide-your-own-S3 option for longer retention if you don't want to pay for the additional retention years in your Rapid7 agreement."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR is a cheaply priced product. On a scale of one to ten, where one is very expensive, and ten is very cheap, I rate the product's price at seven or eight."

"It is on a yearly basis. For our own company, for about 250 users, it was 16,000 euros a year."

"The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pricing and cost advice

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete meets all enterprise requirements and is priced accordingly."

"It is expensive. There is no doubt about it. If one of the functions does not work, it becomes very difficult for any CIO to justify the cost."

"We are on a subscription model by choice. Therefore, we are paying a premium for the flexibility. We would have huge cost savings if we committed to a three-year buy-in. So, it's more expensive than the other solutions that we were looking at, but we have the flexibility of a subscription model. I think the pricing is fair. For example, if we had a three-year tie-in SentinelOne versus Cylance or one of the others, there is not that much difference in pricing. There might be a few euro or dollars here and there, but it's negligible."

"SentinelOne Singularity Complete is cheaper than CrowdStrike but more expensive than any traditional anti-virus solution."

"I believe the retail pricing, or MSRP, is a bit high."

"I found the pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete reasonable."

"The pricing for SentinelOne Singularity Complete is competitive."

"My understanding is that we did a pretty good deal on SentinelOne. A part of that is because we were their customers very early on, and we also use their products a lot. We are interested in the new products that come out. We go to their demos, and we go to their events. We do save a lot of money. It is not cheap, but it is worth it. We spend a lot of money on a lot of things, and most of them do not do as much as SentinelOne."
