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 security level that they are maintaining with the pre-authentication keys is very good."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten. As a cloud tool, the product is highly scalable."
"InsightIDR has allowed us to find potential security issues that we did not know existed, and get remediation quickly."
"The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I like the tool's user analysis feature."
"I definitely recommend Rapid7 InsightIDR."
"The solution provides satisfying native integration features"
"The web interface is great — very useful and user-friendly."
"I rate Rapid7 nine out of 10 for affordability"
 

Cons

"The solution could improve by providing better documentation for beginners to learn, such as videos or other tutorials."
"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"
"Currently, it lacks the functionalities provided by Rapid7's User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."
"I feel it would greatly benefit from more supported log sources."
"The dashboard is an area that could be simplified."
"InsightIDR's integration with other solutions could be improved. Also, I'd like more control from the portal over what's happening on the endpoint side. For example, when I see an attack on an endpoint, I want to be able to stop it from the portal."
"I would like to see more development in InsightIDR towards building their SIEM solution and converting it to XDR."
"There is a future in AI with Rapid7, however, it is not fully operated. There are certain limitations with Rapid7 that I am working on."
"The main problem lies in the processes within the client's operating systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not expensive for the data security measure you receive, it is reasonable."
"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 more reasonably priced than other vendors."
"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR is priced very well and is cost-effective."
"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."
"​Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product.​"
"​I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability.​"
"Rapid7 InsightIDR's pricing is reasonable."
