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

"The incident case management is the most valuable feature. Even though there's always something I find I would like to add to that feature, the ability to quickly sort through all the logs, network and endpoint data, etc., and add it to an incident case as part of the investigation, is nice. Having it automatically timeline that additional data into the original incident timeline, and correlate it to other notable events and activities on the network, results in a huge improvement in our overall confidence that we've quickly traced down the right source of an issue."

"Another very important part of insightIDR is the ability to collect data from endpoint devices via agent software. With a large remote workforce, this allows visibility into the endpoints that are connected to the internet, but not to the corporate network."

"It is a very stable solution."

"I like that it's a cloud-based solution."

"Features for user behavior analytics and the rules for attack review are good."

"We were able to identify criminals attempting to login from China and put a stop on their IP locations."

"It improved my organization by building a security alerting program."

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

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

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

"I like the sales operations testing. and support."

"Initial setup is easy. It can be done by yourself."

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

"Sandboxing gives us a chance to identify malicious behavior, especially for unknown vulnerabilities, although it's rarely needed as a last resort after all other security measures have failed."

"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."

"As a security product, managing threats is crucial for my clients."

"The most valuable features are the protection and that it is fast."

Cons

"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"

"There are certain limitations with Rapid7 that I am working on."

"I would like the ability to adjust the threshold of certain existing alerts. Currently the only option is to change the notifications or create my own alert."

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

"Cloud risk assessment is one area where I think they need a lot of improvement."

"One thing that springs to mind is easier API integration with ITSMs. We are evaluating a new ITSM and I would like to have InsightIDR create a ticket when an attack is identified, and the ticket would be closed in InsightIDR when the ITSM resolution is completed. This would take out the "single point of failure" we currently have, if the email recipient is somehow absent, in recording the risk appetite for the incident and the actions taken to mitigate or not."

"It would be useful to import threat intelligence in YARA format along with known incorrect email addresses."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

"This solution could be improved with faster technical support and cheaper licensing prices."

"I would like to see them create a rule where It could integrate with the network and start mitigating with auto-detection."

"The solution could be more secure."

"The product's scalability feature needs to be improved, as it is an area in the product with certain shortcomings."

"The product's security features need enhancement."

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

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution has a mid-range price point in the market"

"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."

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

"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."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable."

"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."

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