We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The development of use cases on the SSA console is quite user friendly. This means that the security analyst or the researcher does not have to learn another language.""Offers a good wireless feature.""The packet capture aspect of it is a valuable feature because it is quite different from a traditional SIEM solution that only carries out investigations based on captured logs.""I can have enterprise security, email security, next generation firewall security log, HIDS and NIDS logs, etc. all on the same dashboard. It makes it easy to pinpoint or correlate our server to this. I can find out if there is lateral movement. This is the biggest advantage of this solution.""The most valuable feature of RSA NetWitness Logs and Packets are the alerts and correlations tools.""It gives the ability to investigate into network traffic in the Net and the organization what we couldn't do before.""NetWitness Platform is valuable for creating rules that the solution must detect.""The software is scalable to whatever is required, and you can also put a lot of resources in the cloud."

"If we are receiving spam emails, or other types of malicious email coming from a particular email ID, then we are able to block them using this solution.""The solution can scale.""Initially, we didn't have much visibility around what is occurring at our applications lower level. For instance, if we are exposed to any malicious attacks or SQL injections. But now we've integrated FireEye with Splunk, so now we get lots of triggers based on policy content associated with FireEye. The solution has allowed for growth and improvement in our information security and security operations teams.""Support is very helpful and responsive.""Its ability to find zero-day threats, malware and anything malicious has greatly improved my customer's organization, especially for protecting the users' browser.""Over the thirteen years of using the product, we have not experienced a single compromise in our environment. During the COVID period, we faced numerous DDoS attacks, and the tool proved highly effective in mitigating these threats.""The most valuable feature is the view into the application.""I also like its logging method. Its logging is very powerful and useful for forensic purposes. You can see the traffic or a specific activity or how something entered your network and where it went."

Cons
"The initial setup is complex. There are other solutions that are easier to implement.""The system architecture is complex and sometimes it’s hard to troubleshoot potential problems.""An area for improvement would be better automation and more inbuilt use cases.""The product's licensing models are complex to understand. This particular area needs improvement.""The tool's integration capability isn't so great.""The initial setup was complex because it takes a lot of time to complete the implementation.""The log system is a bit complex and has room for improvement.""More customizability is required, which is something that they need to improve on."

More NetWitness Platform Cons →

"Technical support could be improved.""It is an expensive solution.""The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required.""It would be great if we could create granular reports based on the protocols, types of attacks, regions of attack, etc. Also we would like to easily be able to add exceptions to rules in cases of false positives.""The world is currently shifting to AI, but FIreEye is not following suit.""A better depth of view, being able to see deeper into the management process, is what I'd like to see.""We'd like the potential for better scaling.""Stability issues manifested in terms of throughput maximization."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It’s cheaper to run virtual machines in a VMware environment."
  • "The new pricing and licensing mechanisms are fair. I would advise always to get the full solution (i.e., not only Logs)."
  • "It is cheap."
  • "The licenses are good but the cost is very expensive."
  • "This is a pricey solution; it's not cheap."
  • "We have a perpetual license, so the total cost of ownership is not very expensive. It's a good investment."
  • "Many clients are not able to purchase the packet capability because there is a huge amount of data, and the cost depends on the number of EPS (Events per second), as well as the number of gigabytes of data per day."
  • "Our license is for one year."
  • More NetWitness Platform Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing and licensing are reasonable compared to competitors."
  • "The pricing is a little high."
  • "Because of what the FireEye product does, it has significantly decreased our mean time in being able to identify and detect malicious threats. The company that I work with is a very mature organization, and we have seen the meantime to analysis decrease by at least tenfold."
  • "There are some additional services that I understand the vendor provides, but our approach was to package all of the features that we were looking to use into the product."
  • "We're partners with Cisco so we get a reasonable price. It's cheaper than Palo Alto in terms of licensing."
  • "FireEye is comparable to other products, such as HX, but seems expensive. It may cause us to look at other products in the market."
  • "When I compare this solution to its competitors in the market, I find that it is a little expensive."
  • "The user fee is not as high but the maintenance fee is expensive."
