Featured Reviews

Dinesh Venkates - PeerSpot reviewer
Effective device management, enhance threat detection and smooth integration
I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being easy. Initially, the deployment took 15 days for the pilot phase, and then another 15 days for production. However, the actual deployment itself only took 15 days, as it was preconfigured. So it took around one month in total. Stakeholder approval caused a delay, but the actual deployment for the facility department was only 15 days. No maintenance is required because everything is associated. It's a cloud solution, so we only need to modify applications for the services. So, 99.9% of the time, it's working fine.

Beneficial single unified dashboard, good native application integration, and high availability
My advice to those wanting to implement RSA NetWitness Network is they have to first do a little due diligence, such as the exact requirement based on their needs. That will give them a direction for their investment because otherwise, the bill of material or bill of quantity (BOQ) may be higher side. It is important to do good due intelligence on the environment, see the exact requirement, and then go ahead with the solution. The solution is perfectly stable. I rate RSA NetWitness Network a nine 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

"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."
"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."
"We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus."
"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward and as simple as CrowdStrike."
"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
"The product's initial setup phase has very simple steps."
"The behavioral detection is valuable."
"Jamf Protect's most effective features for threat detection include managing devices and applications, deploying and upgrading the OS, and its overall security features."
"RSA NetWitness does market analysis in a more granular form. It gives you full visibility."
"The stability of the RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very good."
"This solution allows us to locate the malware in real-time."
"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."
"NetWitness Endpoint's most valuable features are its interoperability across many different operating systems and the ease of pivoting from network to endpoint via a single console."
"The most valuable feature is the way it captures the traffic, and it contains every detail of the communication."
"It is stable. We have been using it for some time, without any issues."
"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."
 

Cons

"I'd really like to see some data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. More visibility into user activity on laptops would be helpful."
"The tool's drawback is that it fails to offer support for Linux."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."
"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."
"The solution's integration with other tools is slow."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The scope of improvement will fall under the support hierarchy that the tool offers to the latest version that Apple derives for any of the latest operating systems to launch."
"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."
"I would like to see Security Orchestration and Response Automation (SOAR) integration."
"When analyzing something, you have to click several times. It requires a lot of effort to find something."
"NetWitness Endpoint's blocking feature does not work properly - if there's a malicious process, it's not possible to kill it via a custom rule unless and until it's flagged as malicious."
"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."
"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."
"RSA NetWitness Network could improve on integration with non-native application integration."
"The solution lacks a reporting engine."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's significantly cheaper than other options like ApexOne."
"I rate the product price as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
"Jamf Protect is an expensive solution."
"Jamf Protect costs double the price that we were paying before."
"The licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"The product is not an averagely priced tool."
"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."
"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 cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."
"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."
"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."
"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."
"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."
"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."
