Great user-friendly interface; provides many functionalities and many free applications
The interface is good and very user-friendly, it's easy for our customers to use. Cloud Pak provides a lot of functionalities and many free applications available from the online shop which can be deployed to your system. It allows for an increase in functionalities even if you've bought the smallest installation.
Usman Bhatti - PeerSpot reviewer
Simple deployment, scalable, but lacking third-party solution compatibility
Integrating IBM Resilient with other applications can be very difficult and technically challenging. Often, they use the excuse that you are using the latest version of an application, such as an endpoint security system, and they don't have an API or support for it at the moment. There is no automation in the SOAR solution. It's worth noting that many third-party add-on applications needed to be purchased separately to integrate with IBM Resilient. While there were built-in applications available for incident remediation, the selection was limited. Additionally, integrating third-party applications was often a difficult and time-consuming process due to the technical complexity involved.

"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Its flexibility is the most valuable."
"The solution is reliable in our usage."
"The most valuable thing about it is how easy it is to navigate the user interface."
"The UBA, User Behavior Analytics, is very good."
"The initial setup of IBM Resilient is not that complex since my company already has a support license that we use internally. In general, the product's deployment phase is not that complex."
"The product is very good at incident response."
"What I like most about IBM Resilient is that it has a complete stack, which means you don't need to use different OEM products because you have all you need under the IBM Resilient umbrella. You don't need to worry much about integrations and components because you're working with tested and proven architecture."
 

Cons

"Lacks sufficient technical support."
"The response time of the support is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Its price needs improvement."
"The integration could be improved so that it is easy to integrate with other solutions."
"The initial setup is complex."
"The tool needs to improve its documentation on license scripts."
"The product needs a bit more development."
"This product could be improved with better customization. This product isn't the best on the market like QRadar, but it's actually a good solution. However, some competitors' solutions contain more integration, support, automation, or flexibility."
"One thing to improve is how it handles data formats, which currently might require scripting for conversion to CSV before uploading."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is very expensive."
"There are no costs except for the support services that our company pays in addition to the licensing charges attached to the solution."
"There is a license you need to pay for in order to use this product."
"I would rate the tool’s pricing a three out of ten. The tool’s pricing is on a yearly basis."
"We could create unlimited users using the license we had purchased."
"Pricing for the solution is good, in my opinion."
"The cost of the product is quite high."
"The licensing cost for IBM Resilient is not too expensive, but it's not affordable, so it's moderately expensive. Regarding price, I'm rating the solution seven out of ten. The company pays for the license yearly, based on the number of users. Apart from the cost of the license you need to pay for each user, you also need to spend an initial investment for the base platform. You also have to pay for IBM Resilient support."
