Good customers support and offers good inventory management
It maintains our security posture I like the inventory management. I also like behavior detection and exploit prevention. It's been good for months but bad on older endpoints. Only performance issues. I have experience with this solution.  I have contacted the support team. They are good…

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

"I like the inventory management. I also like behavior detection and exploit prevention."
"Kaspersky offers a large number of robust default policies, such as USB blockage. I really like this feature."
"Kaspersky TOTAL Security for Business provides central management for protection of devices, mitigating attacks effectively."
"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."
"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues."
"It is stable. We have been using it for some time, without any issues."
"The log correlation is good."
"Ability to isolate the machine when there are malicious files."
"The interface of this solution is very flexible and easy to use."
"RSA NetWitness does market analysis in a more granular form. It gives you full visibility."
"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."
 

Cons

"The deployment process could be clarified, specifically around the ability to push the security application to clients from the central servers, as we faced issues with this."
"One significant difference is the lack of on-site support from Kaspersky. Symantec has a local team in Pakistan with representatives I can contact directly for troubleshooting and support. On the other hand, Kaspersky doesn't provide the same level of local resources. If I have an issue, I need to draft an email and send it to a Kaspersky help center."
"It's been good for months but bad on older endpoints. Only performance issues."
"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."
"We would like to see the hunting and investigation features of this solution improved, in order to provide better visibility of issues."
"RSA NetWitness Network could improve on integration with non-native application 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 integration of the solution needs to be improved. The dashboard needs lots of updates as well. In the next release, we would like to see advanced fraud detection features."
"Threat detection could be better."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is below average."
"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."
"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."
"The cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."
"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."
"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."
"It is an expensive product."
