We performed a comparison between Darktrace and Nagios Network Analyzer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Traffic Analysis (NTA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of Darktrace are the tracing of unusual external emails and monitoring the local network."
"It is autonomous. So, it learns. It uses algorithms and AI to learn the common behavioral patterns on the network, and it is able to identify threats based on abnormal patterns."
"Darktrace is extremely stable."
"One member of staff is enough for deployment and maintenance because Darkforce is AI-driven. It does a lot of things by itself."
"I particularly like Antigena and the analytics around the real-time monitoring of our network. I also like its reporting because it has got a seven-day reporting period within the system. Every time you run the reports, it gives you the data about the previous seven days. I like that because it is in real-time. I enjoy reading those reports and getting a very clear and decisive idea of what's happening on my network on a real-time basis. I like the actual real-time monitoring of spoofing and things like that. I also like the user monitoring as well as the network logging capabilities."
"It is a stable solution."
"I like the Antigena feature in Darktrace, as it offers immediate response and is helpful."
"What I like about Darktrace, is that you can quickly identify threats."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Network tracking is the most valuable feature of Network Analyzer."
"I have found that it has a good GUI and user-friendly administration."
"The network monitoring feature, especially, stands out to me."
"The solution offers very good system monitoring. It's easy to manage your network, as well as your hardware and software. It's really useful."
"The tool's UI is user-friendly, and pricing is affordable. It is very easy to deploy and learn."
"The solution is useful for monitoring network devices."
"It is highly customizable and can be integrated well with third-party software."
"I'd love them to see maybe covering the cloud a bit more."
"The interface and dashboards could be improved for ease-of-use."
"Darktrace could expand into EDR (endpoint detection and response) and combine it with its network detection."
"I did not use the AI features because they should make it more user-friendly which would be a benefit. Additionally, the solution could integrate with more SIEM or SOAR tools."
"The pricing model is a little too high and could be more flexible."
"The interface is too mathematical and it should be simplified."
"They just need to make it a little bit more accurate as far as their alerts are concerned. It does generate some false positives that you have to tune. You have to do a lot of tuning when you first get it because of the false positives, but once it is all tuned up and ready to go, it will do its thing from there."
"Darktrace needs to automate the reports of false positives, botnets and everything."
"I think the reports can be improved. They're adopted."
"There are some loopholes you need to be aware of from a security perspective."
"Nagios Network Analyzer should integrate an application monitoring solution to monitor application bandwidth usage."
"It's very hard to install materials. You need a lot of documentation. They should make it easier to install and configure the solution."
"It has an old-fashioned interface."
"The graphics and reports can be a little bit better."
"The bandwidth for its front-end version needs enhancement."
"They need to have some automation models embedded in them."
