Detailed observability has transformed agent monitoring and now detects hallucinations quickly
I think everything is there to be true. I do not think there is a scope for improvement in Arize AI. Everything is there. It has a steep learning curve. It takes time to see how Arize works. It is not a very basic thing where anyone can go and start doing it because it takes time. There is a steep learning curve for Arize AI. Because there are so many things in the model or in an agent, it takes time. It is not very easy to use, it takes time. It has a lot of advantages, but it takes time to learn how Arize works. As I mentioned earlier, it has a steep learning curve. It takes time to learn Arize AI, it takes time to configure, it takes time to create dashboards and monitors, and it takes time to understand the UI and determine what can I find where. It takes time to do all of that. It has a steep learning curve.

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.

Pros

"Arize AI stands out to me because of its observability and traceability and ease of use; you can click and you are good to go, and it makes you catch bugs and issues very early before debugging while helping you monitor your models in production."
"One of the major improvements is that prior to using Arize AI, our agent was hallucinating and we were not aware of when it hallucinates or we had a problem in debugging."
"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."
"In my day-to-day work, monitoring is the main focus, and while there are many other tools like Prometheus and Grafana for monitoring, for ML specific use cases, I think Arize AI is the best."
"Arize AI has positively impacted my organization as the answers are more accurate and agent quality has improved dramatically."
"Our timely actions, aided by Arize AI, have allowed us to report results with over 99% accuracy, proving it quite useful."
"Arize AI, with its major features similar to those platforms, is a good alternative."
"Arize AI has made leadership more comfortable with introducing AI features by providing better visibility into failures and reducing unexpected issues in production."
"Customers use the product for scanning purposes and do not want to be restricted with respect to the number of scans they perform."
"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."
"It uses a signature-based method to check for problems with your code and will provide an alert if anything is found."
"We have seen measurable decrease in the mean time to respond to threats by 20 percent."
"The reporting functionality is excellent."
"You have various attack modules, and you also have the Attack Replay feature for the attack sequence. You can reproduce an attack and see it. That is a very good feature I noticed in this solution. It helps developers as well."
"I rate stability ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"It has a steep learning curve."
"We mostly use Arize AI for the ML side, but in my experience, Arize AI lacks on the GenAI side."
"Arize AI can add more functions."
"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."
"I think Arize AI lacks some capabilities like a versioning system."
"The evaluation workflow lacks depth in comparison to competitors, which generally rely on traditional ML frameworks."
"The reporting is definitely an aspect of the solution that's in need of some work."
"When you add new projects for the same product, it either duplicates or replaces the scan configuration. If I run a scan for the same product with a different scan configuration, it should keep the previous scan configuration and not replace it with the new scan configuration. It should just add the new scan configuration. That would be helpful. They do keep the results as it is, but the scan configuration keeps changing. For example, I have set a scan configuration to a full scan, and next week, I want to run a new scan for the same product with some changes or new functionalities. I want to run a partial scan. Currently, if I change the scan configuration to partial, it changes the old one also to partial. That should be improved."
"The only concern I have with Rapid7 is that it does not provide enough information about vulnerabilities within AppSec."
"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."
"We get a lot of false positives during the tests."
"Customers sometimes experience issues with performance."
"The number of web applications we can scan is limited."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Its price is competitive. It is not expensive."
"They offer a good price, but I don't remember its cost. It is fair as compared to the competition. We have opted for project-based licensing, not user-based. We can add any number of users. That doesn't matter. It is worth the money."
"Rapid7 InsightAppSec is cheap."
"I rate Rapid7 InsightAppSec’s pricing an eight out of ten."
"I'm not sure how much it costs exactly, but I know it's expensive."
"The price of this product is very cheap."
