Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The web interface is great — very useful and user-friendly."
"The solution is very scalable in terms of the licensing model."
"I have seen that Rapid7 InsightIDR provides security to the networks and endpoints in the company."
"Intelligent alerting to avoid the common problem of alert fatigue associated with traditional SIEMs."
"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."
"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."
"We were able to identify criminals attempting to login from China and put a stop on their IP locations."
"​​User behavioral analytics allows us to pinpoint abnormal or suspicious behavior among millions of events every day."
"The product is very easy to install."
"The tool's stability and performance are good."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very specific product for threat intelligence with smart protection."
"It is a very good solution. It is very light, and it is quite quick to figure out the problem in your network."
"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 platform provides all essential features for discovery and administration."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery is its complete end-to-end visibility of threats."
"The solution has extension-based features that help it to analyze the environment. The environment can have different platforms like Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool will give a report which can confirm the analysis of the issues. You can also get clear information on threats or suspicious files."
 

Cons

"Currently, it lacks the functionalities provided by Rapid7's User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."
"The APIs can be further improved in Rapid7."
"It would be useful to import threat intelligence in YARA format along with known incorrect email addresses.​"
"Cloud risk assessment is one area where I think they need a lot of improvement."
"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."
"I feel it would greatly benefit from more supported log sources."
"Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition."
"One of the things that could be better is digital forensics. It is there, but it can be better. They could provide more on the endpoint detection level."
"Some of the end users may not be technically proficient, so they occasionally face problems due to a lack of knowledge."
"I would like the ability to analyze all files in our internal network, at the same time on different operating systems. Not just three of them, but as many as possible."
"The tool's configuration can be made easier."
"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."
"Additionally, better scanning capabilities for third-party applications would ensure comprehensive security without the need for exclusions."
"The product's security features need enhancement."
"The solution needs to be able to integrate better with third-party infrastructure."
"This solution could be improved with faster technical support and cheaper licensing prices."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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 more reasonably priced than other vendors."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."
"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."
"The solution has a mid-range price point in the market"
"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."
"Compared to its competitors, Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a little expensive."
"The tool’s licensing costs depend on the customers."
"Overall, the price is good."
"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 licensing cost is a bit pricey. We pay a yearly subscription."
"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."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly. There are no additional costs associated with the product."
