EV
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.

Reliable scanning and integration strengthen security infrastructure
InsightVM has a very organized GUI with ease of use. The vulnerability scans are reliable, and the credential scan is a beneficial feature. The solution is efficient and trustworthy. It's based on the CVSS risk scoring system, which is well-recognized and effective. The integration capabilities through APIs allow easy integration with existing security infrastructure.

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."
"Rapid7 have a good distribution network with good support and market presence."
"We feel the interface is very good. It is very easy to use, even a nontechnical person can use it."
"I really love the new platform. It is really easy to understand, use, and deploy."
"I like Rapid7's scan optimization options."
"When you connect any new device to the network, Rapid7 has the ability to detect the new device immediately. It can scan that device to detect if it has any vulnerability. It tells you what is vulnerable and what has been misconfigured. It also tells you what is the risk of that misconfiguration or lack of patches and how to resolve the problem."
"The most valuable features of Rapid7 InsightVM are the accurate level of scanning and the workflows are good."
"This solution is much more user-friendly than past solutions I have used."
"Using Rapid7, we can install a scan engine, we can do our VPN connections, and we can conduct internal scans of remote sites. We prefer the web application. It's smarter and more accurate from an application perspective."
 

Cons

"We think there's room for improvement, especially with customizing NAVEX One. Their development on the roadmap can be slow."
"Rapid7 InsightVM is expensive, possibly one of the highest in pricing among similar products."
"It would be great to have a mobile application client. Currently, you have to use a mobile web browser on a device, but it is not similar to the desktop web browser in terms of user experience. It would be nice to have a mobile application to access the platform."
"I’d like to see Rapid7 InsightVM improve by adding a knowledge base similar to what Qualys offers. This would help us easily check and search for vulnerabilities using Rapid7 IDs associated with CVs or CVSS. From a features perspective, everything was fine at the time, and the security features of Rapid7 InsightVM were effective."
"There is a significant learning curve, that non-technical individuals, especially those not specialized in computer science or the information security industry, might face."
"I think the improvement in the tool should be to provide a better update to users because sometimes the information within the cloud and the scanner are not synchronized very fast."
"Customer service needs significant improvement. There are delays in support response times, and support is not available promptly, especially when issues are escalated to another region."
"It would be nice to have an additional feature that would provide reports on who has logged onto the console or who did what on the console."
"I would like to see more integration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"NAVEX One's pricing comes in the middle range when compared to other products."
"We have an annual license to use Rapid7 InsightVM and if we want to extend it, we will possibly choose more than one year."
"It is less expensive compared to other competitors."
"Comparing the price with the value that we receive, I am not happy with it."
"The price of the solution is less than the competitors."
"Our licensing costs are somewhere around $40,000 annually. There are no additional fees."
"The licensing is asset-based and very straightforward."
"A full license for the solution is expensive because it is at the organizational level and not by individual users."
"Pricing is reasonable because we pay according to asset usage. We can define our assets and sites according to our preference."
