Constant monitoring and analysis boosts network security
There is always room for improvement. I am not giving it a perfect score because I am sure there is something that could be enhanced.Having some sort of certification or training, along with more periodic webinars might be helpful. Having a larger support network would be beneficial. Nobody I know has heard of Lumu, so they are in the same space as Darktrace or CrowdStrike, but people give blank stares. As the community grows for Lumu then that will improve, but that is not really a criticism of Lumu, they simply have not been around that long.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I have contacted the support once and the experience was good, I was satisfied."
"Whitelisting services are the most valuable feature of Change Tracker Gen7 R2."
"The automated response to incidents works effectively out of the box, and the number of interfaces and platforms it can work with is impressive."
"You can access external links, playbooks, MITRE Matrix, and a lot of information."
"Lumu protects against threats immediately and handles them in time."
"I like Lumu's simple user interface. When we deployed it, we got full access, allowing us to identify IP addresses on the network and connect machine names to users. It helped us identify and block threats via the firewall. I also appreciate the chat support and ticket closure process. We're currently reviewing network detection solutions, and my recommendations include Lumu, Sentinel, and a few others. Regarding functionality and user-friendliness, I would recommend Lumu over the others."
"The context provided by the tool is very complete, it includes the miter matrix, playbooks, links, hashes, and much more."
"Most of it is automated, so I do not have to watch it to get alerts."
"The tool's support team helps partners resolve any problems with the product."
"It's been helpful for overall extended network visibility."
 

Cons

"The solution could include more integrations."
"The solution could improve by being more secure and have better integration."
"Nothing so far needs to be improved."
"It would be good if we could access the physical logs."
"The integration with different vendors and endpoints could be improved."
"Lumu's ability to discover threats is an area of concern where improvements are needed."
"The free version is minimal compared to the full version."
"The reports need improvement."
"I am happy with the current features. However, one important one is to improve the reports."
"Having a larger support network would be beneficial. Nobody I know has heard of Lumu, so they are in the same space as Darktrace or CrowdStrike, but people give blank stares."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license required for this solution."
"It is the cheapest solution we found."
"Compared to Lumu, other solutions are more expensive. SentinelOne was a bit cheaper, and another provider's price structure is unclear, but Lumu fit our budget nicely. SentinelOne's cost depends on the number of devices, and it might be similar to Lumu's, depending on deployment."
"The tool is available at a good price. The tool offers a good and competitive price for customers."
