Find out in this report how the two AI Observability solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
The platform has resulted in time saved and reduces mean time to response, making it a great platform.
By catching issues early, Rapid7 InsightCloudSec helps us prevent costly breaches or regulatory fines; for example, automating patching and misconfiguration audits can save thousands in operational overhead.
It provides a good security posture and helps handle misconfigurations and day-to-day remediations.
I can confirm money and time savings with Rapid7 InsightCloudSec, as we can scan the entire IP range simultaneously instead of manually checking each asset for vulnerabilities.
Local tech support is available, however, for more critical or technical issues, we depend on the OEM directly, especially when it comes to on-prem solutions.
There is a knowledgeable, though small, team of support engineers around the world.
The customer support for Fortinet FortiSIEM is excellent.
On a scale of 1 to 10, the customer support would be rated a 10, as responses are typically received within about half an hour to an hour when creating a ticket.
They have excellent support with internal Slack channels and are directly reachable through Teams.
I interacted with customer support after an endpoint compromise incident, and they responded quickly and provided clear insights that were essential for resolving the situation.
At any point in time, when network devices increase or there is a change in the infrastructure, we can add more workers and collectors to expand our infrastructure setup.
Fortinet FortiSIEM is highly scalable.
Fortinet FortiSIEM's scalability is excellent, and it is also easy to configure, maintain, and operate.
I have not experienced performance issues as I add more assets, and everything operates smoothly within one console.
It stabilizes itself in an appropriate time, so its uptime is good.
These issues may cause unusual errors and user interface issues.
Some stability issues occur, but Fortinet's technical support team provides assistance.
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec works without any stability issues so far.
Recently, they revised it to a subscription-based, all-inclusive license.
The built-in APIs in Fortinet FortiSIEM are somewhat lacking and could be improved for better integration with external ITSM products.
Fortinet FortiSIEM should broaden its remediation part to include more features for incident management.
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec already provides us real-time feedback loops, but if it also provides real-time feedback to the developers, then it would help the application shift left, meaning the security will shift left as well.
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec needs improvements such as AI-driven risk prioritization, proactive cloud risk modeling, advanced IAM privilege analysis, multi-cloud attack path mapping, pre-built automated hardening, defining stronger policy as code support, better container and serverless coverage, and cost optimization insight along with safe auto-remediation with rollback improvements.
If you can improve the traditional detection rules to reflect current detection rules, it would make it significantly easier for us to manage, as we constantly need to check legacy rules to update or possibly turn them off. Updating the legacy rules should be a priority.
Setting it up for oneself as an enterprise-licensed product can be quite expensive.
Windows agent licenses cost around 3,000 Rupees per device per year.
The revised model is subscription-based and more flexible.
It is cheaper.
The more numbers you have, the less costly the product becomes, as licensing operates on volume.
While it was not overly expensive, I do wish for more discounts for bulk purchases since we have implemented it widely across our cloud security posture.
It provides extensive logging and record-keeping for internal networks, cloud applications, and services as well as perimeter physical network security.
I find the real-time monitoring and correlation capabilities effective for security alerts.
Reliability and scalability have helped me in my work, especially because the license for Fortinet FortiSIEM is excellent from a cost perspective, and we can add more collectors as we expand.
Using Rapid7 InsightCloudSec alongside our ManageEngine patch management module positively impacts my organization by scanning assets deeply and providing all identified vulnerabilities, from zero-day to any vulnerabilities on an asset, addressing those that ManageEngine might not identify.
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec has helped us save thirty percent time in our log retrievals, and it completely changed log searching, making it really fast when we search for logs, with no prior knowledge required.
Rapid7 InsightCloudSec positively impacts my organization by integrating tightly with my existing vulnerability management process and workflows, particularly in creating a new project and implementing trigger-based scanning.
