Featured Reviews

Kevin - PeerSpot reviewer
Peace of mind in identifying compromises in your M365 tenants
Huntress Managed ITDR examines various signals from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action. It's a comprehensive solution covering endpoints and cloud tenants, offering peace of mind. I recognized its benefits immediately, as it provides protection against M365 identity compromises, like admin account breaches.
Asim Naeem - PeerSpot reviewer
Providing comprehensive insight into alerts while working towards AI enhancement
I definitely recommend Rapid7 InsightIDR. It is becoming better, with improvements being continuously made to the product. Right now, I do not have any advice about Rapid7 for other users because every organization or user has different criteria or multiple use cases, so I refrain from commenting on that. I rate the overall solution seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The centralized management with the EDR and ITDR is beneficial."
"Huntress Managed ITDR examines various nulls from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action."
"I rate the overall solution as a ten out of ten."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"Implementing Huntress Managed ITDR has improved our business by allowing us to be more proactive with our security posture."
"The ability to ingest Office 365 log files, then process them into events and display them on a map."
"Features for user behavior analytics and the rules for attack review are good."
"The log aggregation and storage provided by InsightIDR has shown no issues with scalability; aggregating over one hundred millions events daily."
"The technical support is a solid 10 out of 10 as they take the time to answer any questions or problems which may arise in a reasonable time frame."
"The platform offers unlimited storage and agent-based solutions."
"The solution is very scalable in terms of the licensing model."
"I like the tool's user analysis feature."
"The solution provides satisfying native integration features"
 

Cons

"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"If anything, it's created more work, but that's because we're now seeing things that we weren't seeing before."
"The product needs further maturity, with some improvements in the user interface."
"The product needs further maturity, with some improvements in the user interface."
"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"Lacks a mobile application."
"InsightIDR is only available in a cloud version. Some of our customers prefer an on-prem solution because they want to manage the security within their environment."
"Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition."
"The main problem lies in the processes within the client's operating systems."
"Currently, it lacks the functionalities provided by Rapid7's User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."
"One of the things that could be better is digital forensics. It is there, but it can be better. They could provide more on the endpoint detection level."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR is not intuitive to search for logs. It should be more user-friendly and improve the dashboards. We should be able to use ready-made templates instead of having to build one."
"I would like to see more development in InsightIDR towards building their SIEM solution and converting it to XDR."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing and licensing are competitive."
"Licensing is by endpoint and amount of retention time (at least ours is). Default retention was one year, but we are able to push the retention further if needed. There's also a provide-your-own-S3 option for longer retention if you don't want to pay for the additional retention years in your Rapid7 agreement."
"​Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product.​"
"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable."
"The solution has a mid-range price point in the market"
"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable but we have challenges with the Minimum Order Quantity. It is not reasonable for customers who have less than one hundred devices. If they can reduce Minimum Order Quantity, it is good. You have to pay around 5000-6000 dollars per year for the product. The pricing includes maintenance and support costs."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."

Questions from the Community

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Huntress Managed ITDR?
In terms of pricing, it seemed pretty cheap for us. I think it was two or three dollars a user a month. Given that it wasn't a product we were expecting to buy, it was a somewhat unanticipated cost...
What needs improvement with Huntress Managed ITDR?
In my opinion, Huntress Managed ITDR has room for improvement in the speed of some screen refreshing, as it isn't as fast as it perhaps could be. The fact that it caches results is a bit odd for a ...
What is your primary use case for Huntress Managed ITDR?
My use case is really just for threat detection and response to observe and get more awareness of where our sign-ins are coming from, so we can better protect our login environment.
What SOC product do you recommend?
For tools I’d recommend: -SIEM- LogRhythm -SOAR- Palo Alto XSOAR Doing commercial w/o both (or at least an XDR) is asking to miss details that are critical, and ending up a statistic. Also, rememb...
