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.

"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

"The only thing that I can think of that would improve it would be if they had a better visualization and a reporting portal."
"The technical support is not very good."
"I would like to see more protection in the endpoint. Especially because we have a lot of people using VPNs. If they would improve end point security, it would give more control there."
"Darktrace requires numerous configurations. It would be beneficial if the configuration could be made simpler."
"The solution's user interface and stability could be improved."
"Darkforce could be improved in the range of the interface; how to interact with the actions it's taking or not taking."
"The pricing is expensive. It costs over $100,000 a year."
"There is a high ratio of false positive information."
"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

"It is a very expensive product."
"I'm unfamiliar with the exact cost, but we have a yearly license and had to pay for Darktrace's services before the deployment. The product is very expensive, so some organizations can't afford to pay the total amount directly, meaning they often seek a partner or pay in installments, which increases the price more."
"We've budgeted about 50,000 Kuwaiti dinars for the solution. That is a yearly operating cost."
"In the ballpark, we're talking about $30K, $50K, and up. It can even be as much as $50K or $100K."
"The product is expensive."
"Darktrace is expensive. You can pay for the license yearly."
"When it comes to large installations, it can be expensive, but for small accounts it's fine."
"The cost of the solution can be reduced to make it more appealing to customers."
