Comprehensive coverage, no vendor lock-in, and best customer relationship

Before Anvilogic, we had no visibility into our detection coverage. The ability to break it down by industry verticals, such as attackers and adversaries, is valuable. Detection insights help us easily identify the most noisy ones, the effective ones, and what needs to be fixed to move the noisy ones to effective ones. The hunting capabilities are very good. The AI components and hunting packages give us quick insights into what needs to be looked at. The partnership has been very good. Their professional services and customer relationship have been very good. Our features and bugs have been fixed on time without a lot of follow-up, and their support has been excellent. Finally, there is a feature within Anvilogic that provides the threat landscape or our effectiveness towards the threat landscape on an ongoing basis. That is another feature that we liked.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the best things about Anvilogic is the partnership, their knowledge, the depth of technical understanding, and the speed at which they respond."

"The deployment was very simple."

"We are partnering very closely with Anvilogic and pushing the threshold of detection engineering capabilities; we are only able to do many of these capabilities due to the partnership that we have with Anvilogic, where they are meeting what we need to continually push new innovative solutions."

"Before Anvilogic, we had no visibility into our detection coverage. The ability to break it down by industry verticals, such as attackers and adversaries, is valuable."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR integrates well with other solutions. It's also easy to configure because Rapid7 InsightIDR has a lot of instructions posted on their website that customers can follow if they need to get the source log."

"Rapid7's reporting is more robust than Tenable's."

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

"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."

"User behavioral analytics allows us to pinpoint abnormal or suspicious behavior among millions of events every day."

"The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

"If you were on other solutions, you would notice that they use agents from third-party, from open-source, from a native OS, or from other tools. Here, however, it is an agent from Rapid7 itself. This adds to the solution's overall capabilities."

"InsightIDR helps us investigate an environment to discover information about incidents."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

Cons

"Anvilogic can be improved by adding the ability to do on-ingest detections. This is something that we have been having a conversation on for a short time now, but I am hopeful that they will have that in their future roadmap."

"The pricing is slightly edging towards being a bit much for smaller organizations."

"The hunting insight needs integrable capability with different platforms to gather all of that insight and show it on a single canvas on Anvilogic. That is the only feature that could improve the way we do operations."

"The solution needs improvement in threat intelligence. Increasing the depth of intelligence to help users understand more about threats is a possibility. My suggestion is to expand access to other websites or resources."

"The solution's XDR agents cannot compete with the XDR solutions out there yet."

"Needs a better ability to customize the check within the console."

"Currently, it lacks the functionalities provided by Rapid7's User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."

"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."

"They should add more configuration and security features to it."

"The interface for doing investigation needs to be enhanced with minor improvements that would make it more useful."

"The product allows us to make only 30 custom rules."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Anvilogic's pricing has been highly competitive."

"We were an early adopter, so the pricing was definitely good. Because they do not completely replace a SIEM, their pricing is slowly edging towards being a little too much for a smaller organization like ours. It is almost on the border."

"Licensing is by endpoint and amount of retention time (at least ours is). Default retention was one year, but we are able to push the retention further if needed. There's also a provide-your-own-S3 option for longer retention if you don't want to pay for the additional retention years in your Rapid7 agreement."

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

"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."

"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."

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

"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."

"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 a reasonably priced solution."
