We performed a comparison between Arctic Wolf Managed Risk and Rapid7 Metasploit based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This solution has made huge strides in improving the awareness of our end users."
"There are companies that do vulnerability scans. However, what adds value is when two experts come and sit with you to scan and patch the vulnerabilities. Any 50-member or small company that has an IT footprint carries risk from a cybersecurity perspective. These companies use tools but don't have the talent to leverage them."
"We have a patch management solution that scans for any patches that can be applied and then applies these patches, but it doesn't hit everything. It also doesn't find all misconfigurations and things like that. Arctic Wolf Managed Risk kind of fills in the gaps and makes us aware of vulnerabilities or misconfigurations that exist out there. It does an agent scan for software versions and compares them to what CVs are out there and lets us know."
"The most valuable feature of Arctic Wolf Managed Risk is being informed about what vulnerabilities there are exposed currently."
"We get access to quarterly reviews with their team."
"I don't have any other tools like it, and I always use it when I'm doing a pen test. Metasploit is a great solution for penetration testing,"
"It contains almost all the available exploits and payloads."
"The tool's most useful feature for penetration testing is its automation capabilities. With the professional edition, you can upload the results from Nessus in the Rapid7 Metasploit solution portal."
"All of the features are great."
"It's not possible to do penetration testing without being very proficient in Metasploit."
"I use Rapid7 Metasploit for payload generation and Post-Exploitation."
"It is scalable. It's in line with our needs."
"The greatest advantage of Rapid7 Metasploit is that it is the only system that can directly exploit vulnerabilities on the Metasploit platform."
"It could be easier to use. They could present things in a little bit more ranked order rather than kind of giving you everything out there. It should highlight the really important stuff and make it easier to get to good rather than perfect."
"The best way to take this product to the next level would be to implement a patch management solution."
"As far as the product is concerned, I would really like the scanning feature to let us know that a threat has been addressed once we apply the relevant patch. We are not seeing this currently when running a scan."
"The scalability could improve."
"Arctic Wolf Managed Risk needs to add more integrations."
"The initial setup was a bit "tweaky" for the open-source version."
"Rapid7 Metasploit can add a GUI feature because it is only available online."
"Rapid7 Metasploit could be made easier for new users to learn."
"It is necessary to add some training materials and a tutorial for beginners."
"The solution should improve the responsiveness of its live technical support."
"There are numerous outdated exploits in their database that should be updated."
"We'd like them to offer better coverage of malware."
"Better automation capabilities would be an improvement."
