Find out in this report how the two User Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The reporting feature was the key differentiator. I also liked the ability to create dynamic rules in the environment."
"I appreciate the comprehensive categorization of devices based on their intended use, such as those for DNS."
"The most valuable feature of Gurucul is the ability to customize and it is on the Hadoop platform that has a lot of flexibility."
"It improved my organization by building a security alerting program."
"InsightIDR’s ability to process millions of transactions per day, and to notify me of the most critical ones, is priceless. InsightIDR has the alerts tuned, and has the ability to quickly drill down to determine the threat level."
"InsightIDR has allowed us to find potential security issues that we did not know existed, and get remediation quickly."
"Rapid7 is easy to use and deploy. It is a simple solution and has easy data pulling."
"If you were on other solutions, you would notice that they use agents from third-party, from open-source, from a native OS, or from other tools. Here, however, it is an agent from Rapid7 itself. This adds to the solution's overall capabilities."
"Great coverage of all systems within our network from endpoint to firewall."
"Integration with threat modeling from the Metasploit and InsightIDR repositories."
"I like that it's a cloud-based solution."
"It could be more stable."
"Gurucul can improve on the online documentation. They should educate the end users more to allow them to do everything themselves."
"Regarding the prioritization of threats, Gurucul UEBA needs to enhance its alert severity assignment process within the system."
"The dashboard is an area that could be simplified."
"Inability to get access to compliance reports within the solution."
"Lacks a mobile application."
"One thing that springs to mind is easier API integration with ITSMs. We are evaluating a new ITSM and I would like to have InsightIDR create a ticket when an attack is identified, and the ticket would be closed in InsightIDR when the ITSM resolution is completed. This would take out the "single point of failure" we currently have, if the email recipient is somehow absent, in recording the risk appetite for the incident and the actions taken to mitigate or not."
"The main problem lies in the processes within the client's operating systems."
"It would be useful to import threat intelligence in YARA format along with known incorrect email addresses."
"I feel it would greatly benefit from more supported log sources."
"The APIs can be further improved in Rapid7."
