Featured Reviews

Abdullah Secca - PeerSpot reviewer
Valuable monitoring and integration features boost compliance
They are not in the US market, and the quality of support has declined. They migrated operations from Boston to Denmark, and we cannot use a tool hosted outside the country. Additionally, dealing with foreign entities for support was a challenge, leading us to switch providers due to lack of adequate support.
Asim Naeem - PeerSpot reviewer
Providing comprehensive insight into alerts while working towards AI enhancement
I definitely recommend Rapid7 InsightIDR. It is becoming better, with improvements being continuously made to the product. Right now, I do not have any advice about Rapid7 for other users because every organization or user has different criteria or multiple use cases, so I refrain from commenting on that. I rate the overall solution seven 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

"The UEBA component, as well as the SOAR component, are some of the most valuable features of Logpoint."
"Technical support is responsive and very friendly."
"The most valuable features are the ones that we use the most, which are the search and report facilities."
"It is an AI technology because it is using machine learning technology. So far, there is nothing better out there for UEBA in terms of monitoring endpoints and user activity. It is using machine learning language, so it is right at the top. It provides that capability and monitors all the activities. It devises a baseline and monitors if there is any deviation from the baseline."
"The flexibility of the search feature and the solution's analytics features are the most valuable parts of the solution."
"The technical support for Logpoint is very good, and I would rate it as nine out of ten."
"The most beneficial was being able to prove, with proper reports, that from a compliance perspective, the company is in control. The service part of LogPoint did modifications or did some additional work to have the proper reports defined."
"What I like best about LogPoint is its cost-effectiveness compared to other solutions. LogPoint also has better dashboards which I find valuable. I also like that you can create use cases based on your assets."
"The solution provides satisfying native integration features"
"Intelligent alerting to avoid the common problem of alert fatigue associated with traditional SIEMs."
"Great coverage of all systems within our network from endpoint to firewall."
"Rapid7's reporting is more robust than Tenable's."
"Features for user behavior analytics and the rules for attack review are good."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten. As a cloud tool, the product is highly scalable."
"It improved my organization by building a security alerting program."
"I am able to run automated actions based on the output of reports, leaving me extra time to focus on more pressing matters."
 

Cons

"The documentation part is something that needs to be improved, as well as the threat intelligence investigation part."
"One of the downsides is it is not a SaaS solution. It must be on-premises."
"LogPoint can improve its dashboards. We are not able to customize the dashboard when creating them. They only have preset dashboards which do not have exactly what we are looking for."
"The interface needs things like wizards that will assist with creating complex correlation rules."
"We were missing visuals and graphics. Recently, a new version seems to have come out, and it has a new graphical user interface. When I was integrating it, it was usable, but the GUI needed improvement."
"What could be improved in LogPoint is its UI because it's less friendly to users than LogRhythm. The UI could be more aesthetically appealing to users. It's completely outdated."
"They are not in the US market, and the quality of support has declined."
"The general public wasn't looking for that type of product unless you had a company that was medical or financial and needed 24-hour responsiveness."
"One of the things that could be better is digital forensics. It is there, but it can be better. They could provide more on the endpoint detection level."
"The dashboard is an area that could be simplified."
"Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition."
"Inability to get access to compliance reports within the solution."
"They should add more configuration and security features to it."
"The product allows us to make only 30 custom rules."
"I feel it would greatly benefit from more supported log sources."
"The APIs can be further improved in Rapid7."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our licensing fees are about $10,000 USD per month, which I think is fair."
"It has a fixed price, which is what I like about LogPoint. I bought the system and paid for it, and I pay maintenance. It is not a consumption model. Most SIEMs or most of the log management systems are consumption-based, which means that you pay for how many logs you have in the system. That's a real problem because logs can grow very quickly in different circumstances, and when you have a variable price model, you never know what you're going to pay. Splunk is notoriously expensive for that reason. If you use Splunk or QRadar, it becomes expensive because there are not just the logs; you also have to parse the logs and create indexes. Those indexes can be very expensive in terms of space. Therefore, if they charge you by this space, you can end up paying a significant amount of money. It can be more than what you expect to pay. I like the fact that LogPoint has a fixed cost. I know what I'm going to pay on a yearly basis. I pay that, and I pay the maintenance, and I just make it work."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I would rate LogPoint's pricing a seven. It is not very expensive compared to some of the more costly products, and it is not very cheap compared to some of the cheaper products in the SIEM market."
"For a hundred user deployment the cost is about $10,000. The next year it would be the same because it's a subscription-based license. There are separate costs as well, for example, if a customer asks for training for their staff."
"My company used to pay for LogPoint costs annually. It's a cost-effective solution. I'm not part of the Finance team, though, so I'm not sure exactly what the licensing fee is or what license my company had."
"It's less expensive than the competitors. The Logpoint marketing team is very accommodating and client-friendly. They offer very good reductions in price. They are pretty good in this aspect. They are transparent in their licensing and pricing."
"It's getting more expensive, which is one of the reasons we're looking around just to see if there's anything better value."
"Logpoint's pricing is mid-ranged and depends on the number of devices."
"Licensing is straightforward. If, for some reason, you don’t meet the minimum licensing requirements, there is a third-party managed service that can help."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable but we have challenges with the Minimum Order Quantity. It is not reasonable for customers who have less than one hundred devices. If they can reduce Minimum Order Quantity, it is good. You have to pay around 5000-6000 dollars per year for the product. The pricing includes maintenance and support costs."
"It is a reasonably priced solution."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."
"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."
"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."
"The solution has a mid-range price point in the market"
"It is on a yearly basis. For our own company, for about 250 users, it was 16,000 euros a year."

Questions from the Community

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for LogPoint?
I rate the pricing at eight, suggesting it's relatively good or affordable.
