Featured Reviews

Asim Naeem - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
DavidBowman - PeerSpot reviewer
It improves the detection speed, but it could be more customizable
They need to stop changing Vision One once a week. They're in a hurry to change things so badly and so fast that I can't find where stuff is half the time, which is a challenge sometimes. I've given one piece of feedback to their product guys. One thing that they're trying to make is a SIEM. It's a product where you input all the logs from your tools, and it creates additional insights into how things look. They've been kind of playing the "me too" game on that, even though that's not what I bought the product for. They have a new gateway where I can take my firewall of email logs and send it over there. In theory, it's supposed to do a more comprehensive evaluation of all my stuff to improve that risk index score. I'm not impressed with it, and I've told them as much. I feel if you're good at something, you should keep working on that and not try to be all the things to all the people. I bought a different email solution even though it would have been 10 times easier to just stay with their email solution because they aren't great at it. They are great at other things, but they're playing the "me too" game with some of their products. Their competitors do this, so they should be doing this, too. They need to pick a product and keep being good at that. If they're going to roll new things out, they should do it but do it right. They have a button to isolate an endpoint because it looks bad, but it doesn't usually work. I've had no chance to argue with the product guys to show them examples of how their button doesn't work. You think it does, but it doesn't work in a real environment. That can be a challenge sometimes. I can see in the data showing what is a false positive. But it doesn't save me time helping them figure out how to fix the problem in their engine. It can help me identify it as a false positive, but it doesn't apply that consistently. It will ignore the false positive for that device, but if they start detecting a false positive on Apple devices, I have eight thousand Apple devices and get 8,000 alerts. I can tell that specific false positive, but it doesn't learn from that particularly well. We use the executive dashboards, but I don't find them particularly useful. One is the ability to customize. That has gotten a little better, and it'll be better in the future. Most of what they have on there are data points that are generic and not particularly actionable. That's why it's called an executive dashboard. Executives want to see if we are secure, but it's hard for me to find out why our attack surface risk went down by x percentage. I don't know. It says that on the dashboard, but it doesn't give me specific details about why. I find it confuses my executives, and it's not useful for me because it doesn't give me things to work on. It will give me generic things on the executive dashboard like you have a thousand accounts with an old password. Those are big generic things, but I also can't tell it that our password policy is different from what your automatic detection model means, and I don't have a problem with that, so quit lowering my risk score. The risk score is useless. In theory, it's based on the random intelligence they're getting from their various customers. I'm in K-12 education, so they have a decent amount of K-12 customers, but it's a subset, and the baseline of what's common in K-12 education is not the same. There's not enough data to make that particularly clean or useful. Vision One is not custom, and that's part of my beef. That index score is based on whatever random report they're looking at from their data sources at any given moment in time. It's nice, but I'd rather have one that's based on your particular circumstances. Instead, it's saying that the number one attack threat surface for school districts is email phishing. It's too generic.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We were able to identify criminals attempting to login from China and put a stop on their IP locations."
"The solution's initial setup is easy."
"​​User behavioral analytics allows us to pinpoint abnormal or suspicious behavior among millions of events every day."
"It is a very stable solution."
"I have seen that Rapid7 InsightIDR provides security to the networks and endpoints in the company."
"Enables the use of honey pots, honey users, and honey files to monitor for suspicious patterns."
"I like the tool's user analysis feature."
"The platform offers unlimited storage and agent-based solutions."
"Drilling down further, we can analyze how our users are utilizing their workstations, including the websites they visit."
"We can scale the product as needed."
"Trend Vision One's most valuable feature is its endpoint firewall rules."
"Scaling is not a problem at all."
"Trend Vision One has helped reduce our time to detect and respond to threats by 30% to 40%."
"Trend Vision One offers superior integrations, enhanced tool capabilities, and expanded solutions for network security, firewalls, and remote malware scanning."
"The most significant recent change has been the addition of the new AI companion."
"They were one of the companies, early on, that spent a lot of time integrating their toolsets, and I was really impressed with that... the endpoint management system could reach out to the Deep Discovery system on the network and pick up something that it perceived as a suspicious object."
 

Cons

"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"
"The solution's XDR agents cannot compete with the XDR solutions out there yet."
"The product allows us to make only 30 custom rules."
"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."
"I would like to see more development in InsightIDR towards building their SIEM solution and converting it to XDR."
"The APIs can be further improved in Rapid7."
"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."
"The solution lacks compatibility with other products. It needs to integrate better with other surrounding solutions."
"The reports lack detail and customization options, particularly for XDR, which hinders our ability to provide tailored reports to clients."
"The integration with third-party tools and with on-premises Active Directory needs improvement."
"When you deploy these tools from Trend Micro, the integration and getting them to work together, are among the more difficult pieces of the puzzle. But when you get that set up and working, you're glad you did."
"A room for improvement is Trend Micro XDR's website. It's a very complicated website since finding the right point one wants to see is difficult."
"Trend Micro could improve its support for non-third-party products and product integrations."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly. It would also be better if the implementation were more straightforward."
"I think that continued optimization of the environment towards automation and orchestration, a kind of layer that sits underneath all of the technologies, would be extremely important."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing is straightforward. If, for some reason, you don’t meet the minimum licensing requirements, there is a third-party managed service that can help."
"The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help.​"
"The pricing and licensing are competitive."
"​I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability.​"
"It is a reasonably priced solution."
"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."
"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."
"​Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product.​"
"Trend Micro's licensing is outsourced to third-party vendors, resulting in price variations depending on the vendor."
"Vision One's pricing is extremely competitive. They're probably the lowest-cost provider that has this feature set."
"Trend Micro recently switched from a license-based pricing model to a credit system, which caused some initial frustration during my renewal."
"The pricing of the solution is okay. There is a need for me to look into the new pricing plan introduced by the solution recently."
"Trend Vision One is cost-effective because it offers detailed reporting and environment control features."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive."
"The cost is considered fairly priced."
"Trend Vision One is an expensive product."
