It's more user-friendly than other solutions we tried, but it could use more features like process mining and automation
We have an application running for our e-commerce site, and we use Splunk primarily to detect anomalous behavior like false orders and other bot-related threats. Splunk helps us analyze and eliminate threats using machine learning.  Splunk is more user-friendly than some competing solutions we…

Stable, accurate, and helps prevent attacks
Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is strictly an intrusion prevention system, so it has no other use cases versus a multipurpose solution such as Cisco Firepower Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System helped my company prevent attacks. What I found most valuable in…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a good security product."
"Splunk is more user-friendly than some competing solutions we tried."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to search through a large amount of data."
"It is a solution that helps test and measure customer satisfaction."
"The most valuable features are the indexing and powerful search features."
"The most valuable features are its data aggregation and the ability to automatically identify a number of threats, then suggest recommended actions upon them."
"It's straightforward in terms of configuration and troubleshooting and log management and monitoring as well. These are the edge points in addition to it being a modular solution where you can capitalize on your current licenses with extra licensing models, which can match the customer's business requirement and it can help the customer to design or to actually plan for their own roadmap."
"The solution is extremely scalable. Our customers are regularly scaling up after installing Splunk."
"The most valuable feature is the central command center, where we can control and manage the solution."
"What I found most valuable in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is its accuracy. It's the best IPS solution in the market."
"The monitoring is the most valuable feature."
"The solution's IDS functionality filters the traffic and blocks malware by blocking the connections."
"The technical support on offer is very good."
"The IPS signatures and the IPS database that are given are much better than what is commonly available."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is very stable. In addition, the provider gives notice of any changes well in advance, which is important for planning updates."
"A standout feature of TippingPoint is its strong integration with various solutions. It stands out as one of the leading network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) in the current market and is known for its seamless integration with other solutions. For instance, when it identifies a potential threat within the traffic stream, it meticulously analyzes the data. Even in multilayer security scenarios, Tipping Point's network IPS can serve as a bypass for the basic firewall. If a threat is identified by Tipping Point, it promptly shares this information with the other systems. This ensures that they're updated and can employ the necessary solutions from their signature databases. The entire network gets safeguarded automatically. This integration extends to components like security and FX. This linkage streamlines our operations, offering a consolidated point of control for managing threats effectively."
 

Cons

"In the future I would like to see simplified statistics and analytical threats."
"There are occasional bugs."
"They should work to add more built-in correlation searches and more use cases based on worldwide customer experiences. They need more ready-made use cases."
"If the price was lowered and the setup process was less complex, I would consider rating it higher."
"We want to have an automated system for bot hunting that enables us to detect anomalies predictively based on historical data. It would be helpful if Splunk included process mining as an alternative option. We have a threat workflow, but it would be useful if we could supplement that with some process mining capabilities over time."
"The price of Splunk UBA is too high."
"The initial setup was complex because some of the configurations that we required needed customization."
"Currently, a lot of network operations need improvement. We still need people to handle incidents. Our vision is to leverage status and convert it directly from the network devices. It would be ideal if we could take action using APIs and API code and remove manual processes."
"I find Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System a bit clunky, and updating it can be a pain in the neck because you need to do it from time to time, so this is what needs to be improved in it. I would also rather have an all-in-one system that does intrusion detection, protection, web filtering, and also serves as a firewall, and my company is moving to an all-in-one solution, but I'm unsure of how soon that's going to be. Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System also doesn't have enough bandwidth to handle the required traffic within my company, so it's going to be replaced."
"An area for improvement in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is the complexity of its interface."
"The solution is pretty expensive."
"Price is a significant factor that requires attention to enhance the popularity of Tipping Point among mid-sized data centres. Currently, Tipping Point is primarily adopted by sizable data centres, and smaller defenders might find it financially challenging to acquire. Recognizing this, efforts are underway to potentially introduce diverse models with varying capacities. This adjustment aims to ensure that a broader range of data sizes can benefit from the solution. Also, the continuous evolution of Tipping Point is evident in its features, particularly the personalized dashboard and related aspects."
"The firewall rules are limited."
"There is room for improvement in customer service and support."
"It integrates well but it takes time."
"TTPS is a bit behind in visuals, the UI, and some data elements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My biggest complaint is the way they do pricing... You can never know the pricing for next year. Every single time you adjust to something new, the price goes up. It's impossible to truly budget for it. It goes up constantly."
"There are additional costs associated with the integrator."
"The licensing costs is around 10,000 dollars."
"I am not aware of the price, but it is expensive."
"I hope we can increase the free license to be more than 5 gig a day. This would help people who want to introduce a POC or a demo license for the solution."
"Pricing varies based on the packages you choose and the volume of your usage."
"It's an expensive product."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"TTPS is reasonably priced."
"We pay for Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System yearly. The cost increases if you add more users."
"TippingPoint is not as expensive as Palo Alto but it's not as cheap as Fortigate."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is an expensive product."
"It is an expensive solution and I would rate it three out of ten."
"The price is in a market-suitable price range. So it's not expensive, but it's also not cheap either. The price is a strong point."
