Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is you have the expertise of human experience directly involved. There is a team of experts.""It's quite integratable so you can actually integrate and get IP malware and URL information. It also gives you some form of intelligence into what you're trying to investigate or what you're trying to understand.""This product has helped to increase staff productivity."

More IBM X-Force Exchange Pros →

"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great. The use cases are also very easy. The visualizations of the use cases are magnificent. You cannot find this in any other solution. From my point of view, it is great.""It helps our security team respond more accurately when there are threats, then we get less false positives or negatives.""We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues.""The log correlation is good.""The interface of this solution is very flexible and easy to use.""Ability to isolate the machine when there are malicious files.""They have recently updated the features and the most valuable ones are the instant threat response, ease of use, web interface, integration, and easy access. RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very compatible with other solutions and technologies. However, they do not rely on third-party solutions and have most features built-in.""RSA NetWitness does market analysis in a more granular form. It gives you full visibility."

Cons
"We would like to have more AI capabilities to detect threats and improve its productivity from a cybersecurity standpoint.""I would like to see better integration with other systems, solutions, and vendors.""You have to look for the new information from X-Force. X-Force will provide it but you have to look for it. We need clearer visibility."

More IBM X-Force Exchange Cons →

"I would like to see Security Orchestration and Response Automation (SOAR) integration.""The solution is modular, for example you can buy the RSA ePack, which you buy as a module is not part of the conduit solution. They could include it and have it as an all-in-one solution.""The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint.""Threat detection could be better.""The contamination feature could be improved.""The deployment process is complex. I don't know why, but this solution will suddenly stop working. Logs stop coming. Often, one thing or another stops working. Most of the time, one of my team members is working with troubleshooting and working with technical support. Log passing is also one of the biggest challenge.""RSA NetWitness Network could improve on integration with non-native application integration.""We would like to see the hunting and investigation features of this solution improved, in order to provide better visibility of issues."

  • "One of the fastest ways to cut costs is reducing staff, and this product can reduce staff by 70 percent."

  • "With RSA, there is flexibility in choosing the service, products, and the range that meets your requirement, as well as they are flexible in terms of pricing."
  • "They can easily adjust if you have the requirements which are required. If you have a budget cut or a budget constraint, they can bend."
  • "It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."
  • "I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."
  • "The cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."
  • "It is an expensive product."
  • "The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."
  • "The pricing is not very economical. It is a quite costly product for India. One thing is that when you purchase it, you have to purchase a module separately."
