Ashitosh Bankar - PeerSpot reviewer
Searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware and monitors the network for security
Jamf Protect provides zero-touch integration, and we can add various IdPs for synchronization or authentication.The most effective feature of the solution for security needs is that users can create a zero-touch environment network access and VPN access. Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security.
SupravatMaji - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus."
"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."
"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
"The quick updates are really good. If a new OS update drops today, I'll have the Jamf Protect update within a few hours. It's also compatible with all Mac OS versions, and there's zero lag or performance impact."
"The behavioral detection is valuable."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"Jamf Protect's most effective features for threat detection include managing devices and applications, deploying and upgrading the OS, and its overall security features."
"The product's initial setup phase has very simple steps."
"This solution allows us to locate the malware in real-time."
"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our 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."
"The most valuable feature is the way it captures the traffic, and it contains every detail of the communication."
"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."
"Ability to isolate the machine when there are malicious files."
"The most valuable feature of RSA NetWitness Network is the single unified dashboard from which you can manage all the different products of RSA. Additionally, the integration with native applications is good."
 

Cons

"I'd really like to see some data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. More visibility into user activity on laptops would be helpful."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."
"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."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"Jamf Protect protects just Mac devices, and we would love to have one solution for other platforms and not just Mac devices."
"Beginners need initial training."
"The solution's integration with other tools is slow."
"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."
"I would like to see Security Orchestration and Response Automation (SOAR) integration."
"The initial setup requires a high level of skill."
"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."
"We would like to see the hunting and investigation features of this solution improved, in order to provide better visibility of issues."
"The contamination feature could be improved."
"The solution lacks a reporting engine."
"When analyzing something, you have to click several times. It requires a lot of effort to find something."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's significantly cheaper than other options like ApexOne."
"The licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"Jamf Protect costs double the price that we were paying before."
"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."
"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."
"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."
"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."
"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."
"It is an expensive product."
"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 cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."
