Automation has replaced manual customer operations and is improving accuracy and focus
I can say that the best features Arize AI offers is that I do not need to use multiple software solutions. Suppose I do not need to connect with third-party apps; it is a complete AI team. It is not just one software; it is a complete AI team. I can do anything available from this one software. I need not merge any third-party software. I need not integrate it. All the things that I want to do as an agent, a basic AI agent, I can access Arize AI and create an agent. I can trace from there, evaluate from there, experiment, give a prompt, monitor, and give annotation. All the things are possible. The feature I use most often and find the most valuable in my daily work is that the prompt playground is more of a benefit for me. We can give a prompt, set the functions, and see how users interact with it. All these things, and we can target our language from the features. We can send messages also. We can see auto-generated prompts. We can view them from here. We can run two prompts at a time. We can run multiple prompts at a time. I think it is quite useful. In the prompt playground, I can see we can do most of the things. We can translate the prompt from one thing to another. We can use any of ChatGPT. We can use any model from the AI, such as GPT, and we can use any parameters. It is not limited to one software. We can change software also. We can use AI bots also from here. I think that is quite useful. Arize AI has positively impacted my organization by reducing most of our manual work. We have shifted to complete automation from this. Working hours are reduced and we are more focused. There is less chance of mistakes. We are more focused toward accuracy and can focus more on our work.

Provides reliable applications security but needs better integration options
There are areas for improvements regarding false positives. Integration capabilities are lacking, as options for integrations with other tools such as SNOW, Jira, or other integration tools are not sufficient in Rapid7 InsightAppSec. The user interface sometimes has glitches, which may prevent appropriate results during navigation, and even when we get appropriate results, it can be impossible to export them to CSV records or download files. Regarding scalability, Rapid7 InsightAppSec is not a scalable solution for our industry due to limited integration capabilities. Rapid7 relies on another tool called InsightConnect, which requires additional investment, detracting from scalability. Another area that needs improvement is the integration of AI capabilities into the platform. Both Rapid7 InsightAppSec and InsightVM need to advance in that area. In terms of behavioral and pattern recognition, identifying complex attacks such as SQL, blind SQL, JSON, and LDAP injections often results in 94% false positives. This necessitates improvement in their behavioral-based analytics feature.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Arize AI has made leadership more comfortable with introducing AI features by providing better visibility into failures and reducing unexpected issues in production."
"Arize AI has positively impacted my organization by reducing most of our manual work, shifting us to complete automation, reducing working hours, and allowing us to focus more on accuracy with less chance of mistakes."
"It uses a signature-based method to check for problems with your code and will provide an alert if anything is found."
"The templates feature is very easy; you just choose the kind of attack you want on your web application, and you run it against that template and receive a report, which is great."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the graphical interface."
"In Rapid7 InsightAppSec, a distinctive feature is the provision of a CDM for integrating web servers and web applications. To establish the connection between these applications, you only need to paste the provided CDN into your metadata. Once connected, every piece of information, including vulnerabilities, can be accessed. It also offers demo sessions."
"For our needs, Rapid7 was the ideal go-to tool."
"Rapid7 InsightAppSec is a good product for dynamic application security testing, providing neat reports that include validation actions and helping to generate web application firewall rules for web applications."
"Rapid7 InsightAppSec helps us in both regulatory compliance and in strengthening our security posture."
"Relatively speaking, InsightAppSec is good compared to Insight VM."
 

Cons

"I think we can improve its interface."
"More end-to-end architecture examples would be beneficial as current technical documentation is solid, but more practical examples are desired."
"Currently, InsightAppSec lacks similar functionality. Customers must wait for remediation during the developers' preparation of a new version."
"Scanning can be better. When you add new projects for the same product, it either duplicates or replaces the scan configuration."
"I would like more details of what the product can do."
"The product’s pricing could be flexible."
"In the future, if they can have integration with a lot of ticketing systems then it would be amazing."
"The number of web applications we can scan is limited."
"There is room for improvement in Rapid7 InsightAppSec by giving clients the ability for extra columns on reports and enabling the extraction of remediation reports into a CSV format. Currently, the PDF format is cumbersome to go through when dealing with thousands of pages."
"They should add more features. I would like to see them do a little more on static analysis and also interactivity analysis. Currently, it does very basic static analysis. It could do a little more static analysis, which is something that would help. A lot more interactivity analysis should also be there. It should basically look at security during interactivity."
