Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is easy to use.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""The most valuable thing about it is how easy it is to navigate the user interface.""The solution is very easy to use.""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.""The UBA, User Behavior Analytics, is very good.""This is a good solution that we recommend for customers.""Its flexibility is the most valuable."

More IBM Resilient Pros →

"Support is very responsive.""It has reduced our manual efforts to remove emails from each user's inbox, and in this case we do not have to ask our IT department or users to do so.""The best part of Proofpoint Threat Response is the Auto-Pull feature. Being able to pull an email back from a user's mailbox is very useful, yet I have noticed that not a lot of organizations use this kind of feature."

Cons
"The integration could be improved so that it is easy to integrate with other solutions.""What could make IBM Resilient better is if IBM increased the number of built-in integrations with different products from other vendors or third-party products.""The implementation could be a bit simpler.""The response time of the support is an area of concern where improvements are required.""Its price needs improvement.""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.""The tool needs to improve its documentation on license scripts.""One thing to improve is how it handles data formats, which currently might require scripting for conversion to CSV before uploading."

"The interface within Threat Response could be made simpler.""If the reporting gets improved then it would be better, but the product is running amazing as it is.""Has some quirks."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is very expensive."
  • "There is a license you need to pay for in order to use this product."
  • "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."
  • "We could create unlimited users using the license we had purchased."
  • "I would rate the tool’s pricing a three out of ten. The tool’s pricing is on a yearly basis."
  • "Pricing for the solution is good, in my opinion."
  • "The cost of the product is quite high."
  • "I feel it is an expensive product when my company pays annually for renewal, support, and follow-up."

  • "It's quite affordable to have it with this much functionality and ease to administrate."
  • "The way most big companies work with Proofpoint is that they try to tie everything into an enterprise license. I can't comment on the actual costs, however I do know that alternative solutions such as Abnormal Security can be much more expensive than Proofpoint Threat Response."
