Pasan Jayarathna - PeerSpot reviewer
Network Security Engineer at Cyberwell Solution
Monitoring has improved data loss detection and now spots abnormal internal file transfers quickly
In my understanding, the best feature Darktrace offers is the identification of copying files, which acts as a DLP, and it is a main concern for companies because users sometimes copy data outside without knowing, especially those without a technical background. When I mention the DLP-like feature and file copying detection, the alerts have been very timely, as we get an alert within a couple of minutes, which is excellent. Even if some developers are working after hours and copying files, our SOC team detects this, and most of the time they call us so we can identify the users. The alerts are quite accurate and proactive.

Easier to learn, access, and use, and comes with an easy to understand GUI
What we like most in LogRhythm NetworkXDR is its GUI. The GUI is the best when compared to competitors. For example, there is another SIEM in QRadar and Splunk, and for open source SIEM there is Wazuh and there are other SIEM solutions, but LogRhythm NetworkXDR is more reliable and easier to access. It's easy to use and its display is easy to understand. Learning LogRhythm NetworkXDR is smooth sailing compared to other SIEM solutions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Implementing this solution has given us confidence that we are secure."
"Technical support is helpful and responsive."
"Darktrace is valuable since it offers full packet capture and detailed metadata."
"Its AI technology supports cybersecurity by learning my environment and accurately responding to threats."
"Darktrace is extremely stable."
"It is really good; it has given us a view of our company and it has actually caught a couple of people that were doing data exfiltration and stealing data from our company, and we caught them doing it in the act in live time, which is just incredible."
"The technical support is excellent; they walk you through the process and do a great job."
"The autonomous mode, which is the Antigena AI response, is particularly valuable."
"What we like most in LogRhythm NetworkXDR is its GUI; the GUI is the best when compared to competitors, for example, there is another SIEM in QRadar and Splunk, and for open source SIEM there is Wazuh and there are other SIEM solutions, but LogRhythm NetworkXDR is more reliable and easier to access, it's easy to use and its display is easy to understand, and learning LogRhythm NetworkXDR is smooth sailing compared to other SIEM solutions."
 

Cons

"Block attack capabilities or integration with other SIEM solutions such as IBM QRadar."
"Darktrace needs significant improvement in its notification capabilities."
"Darktrace needs to simplify most of the positive reports. We have to field all the positive reports, false positives, too."
"It is expensive, but everything else has been great so far."
"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."
"The solution could be easier to use."
"The dashboard and reporting for this solution could be improved as it is currently complex. The GUI for this solution could also be improved."
"Darktrace does not have any capabilities to configure. So I would like to see supervised machines and capabilities in the next version."
"What would make LogRhythm NetworkXDR better is if they could run it open source, similar to what is being done in Wazuh, and Wazuh is also a good tool to compare against. More integration could also make LogRhythm NetworkXDR better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution is expensive."
"Darktrace is expensive. You can pay for the license yearly."
"It is expensive."
"I am using a demo of Darktrace for deployment and testing which is free."
"When it comes to large installations, it can be expensive, but for small accounts it's fine."
"The price of the solution is not cheap. It is not a one-time purchase, there is a subscription that needs to be paid every one to five years depending on your choice. It is expensive but you can reduce the price by only using the services that you want."
"The tool's pricing is costly."
"Darktrace is pricey, but the price is reasonable for what the solution does, and it's comparable to other products."
