Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The report function through Gmail is probably the most valuable feature. The next most valuable features are simulation and training.""The biggest benefit is that we get fewer phishing and spam emails, so using IRONSCALES has made our environment much safer.""AI-driven phishing detection and incident remediation are valuable. It saves time from having to do manual analysis and investigation, and we also get alerts for phishing emails.""The stability is good.""There is buzz around phishing awareness training. When I make a campaign, all of a sudden people in our organization are talking, thinking, and wondering about it. Therefore, it keeps people on their toes. That is perfect because it does exactly what we want it to do.""I would say the most valuable feature is what they call Themis. It's like a virtual analyst that uses the decisions that system admins make to generate a score for whether an email is legitimate, spam, or phishing. It gets better based on the decisions that we make over time. The automation piece is great as well. The integrated approach of email security combined with employee awareness training is excellent.""The solution captures a bit more of the unknown, quantifies it, and applies intelligence to it to pick out and stop a lot of phishing emails that come through.""For me, the mobile app is most valuable. All other features are also very useful, but the mobile app makes it really easy for me to manage on the go. I don't have to be at my desk. I could be at the shops, or it could be in the evening when I am out, and I can get a notification on my phone that there is an incident that has been raised. I can sort it out very quickly without having to be at my work PC."

"Initial setup is easy. It can be done by yourself.""The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery is its complete end-to-end visibility of threats.""It is a very good solution. It is very light, and it is quite quick to figure out the problem in your network.""The most valuable features are monitoring for advanced persistent threats, the system runs in a sandbox allowing for effective zero-day exploits management, and the Inspector has a built-in sandbox.""The HTML file sandboxing is very good.""The platform provides all essential features for discovery and administration.""Generally speaking, it just gives us a broad understanding of exactly what kind of threats occur. The submission point, analyzing point, and virtualization are within the environment that it supports. It helped us to improve our security levels and protect our internal network from any threats outside.""The most valuable features are the protection and that it is fast."

Cons
"I would love to see the indication of compromise and how the solution utilizes open source resources. It would be good to see that included in the paid versions. It would be a small addition but add a lot of value for clients.""In addition to integrated training, they should also have personalized training that you don't have to do as part of a phishing campaign or a simulation.""The only thing that I could say is that some of the reporting features could be better.""The integration with Google Suite needs to be better. it's something they can work on.""Its UI could be improved. My pet peeve with a lot of these cloud-based systems is that a lot of times, the interface for the management is a little clunky. If you live and breathe IRONSCALES all day long, you'll obviously know where everything is just from muscle memory, but the system is not designed for people to be in it all day long. You're only supposed to occasionally look at it. When things get moved around, it is not necessarily that intuitive. I'm an IT guy, and I can pretty much take the worst UI and figure it out, but the menus and the options in the interface could be a little cleaner graphically. If you have a quick problem that you want to resolve, it takes a little bit of digging in the admin console, whereas it should take a few clicks up front.""There is a feature called Account Takeover, which isn't what I want it to be able to do. I know that they're working on that, but when they first started the Account Takeover feature in incident management, it didn't have much information. It didn't have any usability to it. I already had tools in place that were better.""IRONSCALES should bundle more features together instead of separating them and charging additional licensing fees.""The simulation and training piece could be improved by having more granularity in terms of scheduling how campaigns are run and allowing people to directly take the training rather than having to go through an official campaign. That's not available yet."

"There are certain aspects of flexibility in the policies that should be added to Deep Discovery.""I would like to see them create a rule where It could integrate with the network and start mitigating with auto-detection.""Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very expensive solution, making it very hard to sell.""Scalability becomes an issue when managing a higher number of customers.""Some of the end users may not be technically proficient, so they occasionally face problems due to a lack of knowledge.""The solution needs to be able to integrate better with third-party infrastructure.""Trend Micro can improve the pricing in general. There is nothing else they can add or improve in the solution.""The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "There is an installation cost. Since we have this as a managed service, we pay for licensing and the managed service itself. Other than that, there are no additional costs."
  • "They are pretty much the same as all the other competitors in the market."
  • "We pay $3000 plus a little more a year for the number of employees we have, and we're not even that big. The solution is at the higher end in terms of cost. It's not the most expensive product, but I would say it's worth the price if you have a high volume of email traffic. In our case, the solution has inspected over 162,000 emails between three and four months. It saved us a lot of time and money. It's a worthwhile investment because a bad actor only has to succeed once; we must defend against everything in our business. IRONSCALES offers a sense of security and confidence from being well protected."
  • "I don't know about its pricing because I don't run the budget or pay the bills, but if it was extortionate, we probably would be looking to scrap it, and because we are not, I assume its price is okay."
  • "Considering the value it provides, it is definitely worth the cost. We don't have to do manual analysis and remediation of phishing emails, which saves us a lot of hours. Its licensing is based on the number of users being supported and the number of email addresses being protected. I'm not aware of any additional costs."
  • "As compared to everything else we looked at, it was good. It was the best value for the dollars."
  • "IRONSCALES is an expensive solution."
  • More IRONSCALES Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Overall, the price is good."
  • "The price of the solution is lower compared to the competition."
  • "The licensing cost is a bit pricey. We pay a yearly subscription."
  • "Its price is fine, but Trend Micro can improve the pricing in general. It is a hardware solution. It is based on the number of nodes, and according to the number of nodes, clients decide which box they should acquire. They have to renew their license every year. It is subscription-based."
  • "The tool’s licensing costs depend on the customers."
  • "The tool's licensing costs are yearly. There are no additional costs associated with the product."
  • "Compared to its competitors, Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a little expensive."
  • "The pricing is okay for some, and sometimes, some people find it expensive."
