Providing comprehensive insight into alerts while working towards AI enhancement

I definitely recommend Rapid7 InsightIDR. It is becoming better, with improvements being continuously made to the product. Right now, I do not have any advice about Rapid7 for other users because every organization or user has different criteria or multiple use cases, so I refrain from commenting on that. I rate the overall solution seven out of ten.

Good threat detection capabilities and offers flexibility for hosting options

As a security product, managing threats is crucial for my clients. According to feedback from my client base, Trend Micro has good threat detection capabilities and offers flexibility for hosting options. It also includes features like an advanced scan engine – those are definitely strong benefits. Additionally, its virtual analysis feature is quite useful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I am able to run automated actions based on the output of reports, leaving me extra time to focus on more pressing matters."

"InsightIDR’s ability to process millions of transactions per day, and to notify me of the most critical ones, is priceless. InsightIDR has the alerts tuned, and has the ability to quickly drill down to determine the threat level."

"Enables the use of honey pots, honey users, and honey files to monitor for suspicious patterns."

"The log aggregation and storage provided by InsightIDR has shown no issues with scalability; aggregating over one hundred millions events daily."

"Rapid7 is easy to use and deploy. It is a simple solution and has easy data pulling."

"Dashboards, including the main screen, provide much-needed information at a glance, without hours of coding and sifting through logs to find it. In case of an actual security incident, I have faith that insightIDR has retained all logs in a secure manner that prevents log tampering as well."

"The technical support is a solid 10 out of 10 as they take the time to answer any questions or problems which may arise in a reasonable time frame."

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

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

"Deep Discovery is scalable and compatible with other products. It's crucial to have that compatibility because it's an integral part of our security solution. It integrates smoothly. The interface is user-friendly, so administration is simple."

"The reporting is very good, providing detailed analysis in a short amount of time."

"The product is very easy to install."

"The tool's most valuable feature is its collaboration with other products. Integrating with other security products was simple and easy."

"The most valuable features are monitoring for advanced persistent threats, the system runs in a sandbox allowing for effective zero-day exploits management, and the Inspector has a built-in sandbox."

"The product's initial setup phase was not difficult."

"The tool's stability and performance are good."

"The most valuable feature is that the user can customize images of virtual machines in the sandbox functionality. The other vendors only use images that were created by the vendor but not the customer, end-user or partner. This helps to detect advanced threats and attacks."

More Trend Micro Deep Discovery pros

Cons

"Tenable Nessus is easier to deal with. It's more efficient and accurate. InsightIDR is heavier than Tenable in terms of performance and scanning. Rapid7 would be much easier to use if it had a network connector like Tenable. Tenable's connector allows continuous monitoring over the B caps."

"Inability to get access to compliance reports within the solution."

"Sometimes, it is hard to get the right queries to use. Currently, the tool lacks a pre-made set of queries."

"Lacks a mobile application."

"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."

"Rapid7 doesn't integrate well with all our security tools from various vendors, so we plan to switch. Many of our solutions work with Rapid7, but some do not. We are already searching for a replacement already."

"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"

"The dashboard is an area that could be simplified."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

"There are certain aspects of flexibility in the policies that should be added to Deep Discovery."

"Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very expensive solution, making it very hard to sell."

"The stability of the solution could be improved. It should be 100% stable, but it's not there right now."

"Additionally, better scanning capabilities for third-party applications would ensure comprehensive security without the need for exclusions."

"The solution needs improvement in terms of pricing."

"The price range is a little high."

"Some of the end users may not be technically proficient, so they occasionally face problems due to a lack of knowledge."

"The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."

"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 a reasonably priced solution."

"I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability."

"I rate Rapid7 InsightIDR's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"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."

"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."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pricing and cost advice

"Trend Micro Deep Discovery is quite expensive compared to other endpoint security products."

"The pricing is okay for some, and sometimes, some people find it expensive."

"Compared to its competitors, Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a little expensive."

"The licensing cost is a bit pricey. We pay a yearly subscription."

"Its price is fine, but Trend Micro can improve the pricing in general. It is a hardware solution. It is based on the number of nodes, and according to the number of nodes, clients decide which box they should acquire. They have to renew their license every year. It is subscription-based."

"The tool’s licensing costs depend on the customers."

"The tool's licensing costs are yearly. There are no additional costs associated with the product."

"Overall, Trend Micro Deep Discovery has proven to be a reliable solution that enhances our security posture while minimizing operational disruptions."
