Find out what your peers are saying about Darktrace, Vectra AI, Auvik and others in Network Traffic Analysis (NTA)."Darktrace is very useful for us because it has a large number of models for detecting threats."
"The most valuable feature is that it gives us visibility of rogue traffic that is on the network."
"I particularly like Antigena and the analytics around the real-time monitoring of our network. I also like its reporting because it has got a seven-day reporting period within the system. Every time you run the reports, it gives you the data about the previous seven days. I like that because it is in real-time. I enjoy reading those reports and getting a very clear and decisive idea of what's happening on my network on a real-time basis. I like the actual real-time monitoring of spoofing and things like that. I also like the user monitoring as well as the network logging capabilities."
"Its most valuable feature is its ability to identify malicious connected IPs from outside and the attacks that get through to the inside."
"t was pretty as far as the granularity of what you were getting out of it."
"Technical support is helpful and responsive."
"The initial setup is simple."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it does not require human intervention to eliminate a threat."
"A great feature is the memory utilization graph."
"The feature that I have found the most useful is the decode of packets. It gives us a variety of information that helps us in figuring out what to look at. The networks are getting really complex, and without the information that we get from Iris Session Analyzer, we couldn't do our job. Its graphical user interface is also very easy to use and intuitive."
"It is expensive, but everything else has been great so far."
"The dashboard and reporting for this solution could be improved as it is currently complex. The GUI for this solution could also be improved."
"This product needs more in terms of prevention. The detection capabilities work well but once a threat has been detected, Darktrace should work to prevent it from doing anything malicious."
"I did not use the AI features because they should make it more user-friendly which would be a benefit. Additionally, the solution could integrate with more SIEM or SOAR tools."
"They just need to work on their price. In terms of features, we are trying to understand all the features that we have. We're still exploring everything that we have so that we can fully utilize it. At this point in time, it is not about the features. It is more about utilization. We're just trying to utilize everything to full capacity."
"It would be useful if there was a way to check to see if there are certain devices that are not in sync with the solution. I'm not sure if this is an option or not."
"Darktrace could improve its features, such as monitoring and detecting ransomware."
"The pricing model is a little too high and could be more flexible."
"They can increase flexibility in the search engine. Basically, I go with the information I have at the time. If I could just type in the parameter that I want to search for and its value, it might be easier than having to do the groundwork upfront before I can get my traces."
"Sometimes the network analyzer will show that a server is down when it's actually working."
