Information Security Business Enablement Mgr. at a insurance company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Useful for risk assessment and has customization capability
The tool helps us with security incidents, policies, business continuity, disaster recovery, and internal audits. The feature I like the most is its customization capability. It acts like a blank canvas where you can construct forms and workflows according to your needs. You can configure and customize a lot yourself, whether starting from scratch or using some out-of-the-box options. The solution has impacted our operations by helping us manage and prioritize environmental risks. It also assists in establishing ownership of risks and enables us to mitigate or mediate existing risks. Additionally, it facilitates tracking risks throughout their entire lifecycle.

Offers robust compliance features but needs improved automation in remediation
The automation capability remediation needs improvement. The current process requires manually telling IT teams to remediate vulnerabilities, and then they update the status of these vulnerabilities in the platform. This basic feature that Rapid7 calls an automated remediation process is actually manual. We can update the status of vulnerabilities in the Rapid7 InsightVM platform and collectively see how many vulnerabilities we have identified and how many are remediated by our IT team. More automation in the remediation feature is a basic demand from many customers. The remediation part and vulnerability identification of network devices or rigid devices are not currently supported by Rapid7 InsightVM. More integration and automation are the two areas Rapid7 needs to improve in their product.

Pros

"The tool helps us with security incidents, policies, business continuity, disaster recovery, and internal audits. The feature I like the most is its customization capability. It acts like a blank canvas where you can construct forms and workflows according to your needs. You can configure and customize a lot yourself, whether starting from scratch or using some out-of-the-box options."
"The solution scales well."
"This solution's most useful feature is that it is entirely a single-page application."
"I have been in contact with technical support and they are not bad."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its dashboards."
"Having a vulnerability scanner has saved us from cyber attacks a number of times, so we've gotten good ROI from Insight VM."
"I liked the dashboard on it. I could customize my dashboard with different widgets and different heat maps."
"It's a relevant management tool."
"The most valuable feature for me is the risk calculation based on monthly effects."
 

Cons

"We think there's room for improvement, especially with customizing NAVEX One. Their development on the roadmap can be slow."
"InsightVM could be improved by providing passive scanning as an option."
"Rapid7 InsightVM could be easier to use for those who are using it for the first time."
"We found that after you passed an endpoint, it didn't always reflect it in the next scan. I'm not sure if it was a glitch or some issue with the product's software. That was never clear. That was always an issue and something that definitely needed improvement."
"They should improve the cybersecurity feature of the solution."
"The technical support is good in their knowledge, but they are a little slow."
"Their customer support should be improved, and the effectiveness of scans also needs to be improved."
"It is still not a fully cloud-based solution. It will be helpful for customers if it is a complete cloud solution."
"Their customer support should be improved, and the effectiveness of scans also needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"NAVEX One's pricing comes in the middle range when compared to other products."
"The solution is a bit more reasonably priced than other products."
"It is less expensive compared to other competitors."
"This solution is expensive, but it's fine for us as we have an open budget for security solutions. Protection and having the system secured is more important."
"The solution's pricing is better than Nexus which charges a high amount for very little use."
"Its price is too high. My only concern or issue with Rapid7 is its pricing."
"Our licensing costs are somewhere around $40,000 annually. There are no additional fees."
"In some cases, we procure the licenses. In some cases, the customers directly buy the license from Rapid7."
"We purchase annual licenses."
