We performed a comparison between Darktrace and NetWitness XDR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Detection and Response (NDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of Darktrace and the most valuable feature is the artificial intelligence module because that is the tool that determines automatically if there is any risk or not in the network."
"One member of staff is enough for deployment and maintenance because Darkforce is AI-driven. It does a lot of things by itself."
"Artificial intelligence and machine learning functionalities are valuable."
"The product offers us a very good user interface and we've found the network visibility to be very good so far."
"AI analytics are built directly into the product."
"We allow customers to access our Wi-Fi as guests, and some of them were going to restricted sites. Darktrace showed us what they were doing so we could block them."
"The solution is outstanding from a monitoring perspective."
"The platform has many modules, and each module examines a different situation in the behavior."
"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues."
"The log correlation is good."
"It helps our security team respond more accurately when there are threats, then we get less false positives or negatives."
"The stability of the RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very good."
"NetWitness Endpoint's most valuable features are its interoperability across many different operating systems and the ease of pivoting from network to endpoint via a single console."
"The most valuable feature is the way it captures the traffic, and it contains every detail of the communication."
"This solution allows us to locate the malware in real-time."
"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great. The use cases are also very easy. The visualizations of the use cases are magnificent. You cannot find this in any other solution. From my point of view, it is great."
"It's quite expensive to have."
"The solution would benefit from automation. Currently, you have to know what you are searching for."
"This is quite an expensive product so the pricing is something that can be improved."
"Darktrace requires numerous configurations. It would be beneficial if the configuration could be made simpler."
"I would like for the product to work on the endpoints as well. I would like to see enhanced visibility into the endpoints and network but this solution only sits on the network itself."
"The price point for the product was too high for what our possible use case could be."
"The dashboard and reporting for this solution could be improved as it is currently complex. The GUI for this solution could also be improved."
"The module can improve so that every time it's more intelligent."
"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."
"The integration of the solution needs to be improved. The dashboard needs lots of updates as well. In the next release, we would like to see advanced fraud detection features."
"Threat detection could be better."
"The deployment process is complex. I don't know why, but this solution will suddenly stop working. Logs stop coming. Often, one thing or another stops working. Most of the time, one of my team members is working with troubleshooting and working with technical support. Log passing is also one of the biggest challenge."
"The contamination feature could be improved."
"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."
"I would like to see Security Orchestration and Response Automation (SOAR) integration."
"We would like to see the hunting and investigation features of this solution improved, in order to provide better visibility of issues."
