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.

Less false positives, good detection and integration capabilities, and good pricing

The incident response area should be improved. It is more difficult than other products, but overall, it is good. The platform has a lot of options and functionality. So, you need to check almost everything. For new engineers or people who don’t have much experience with this kind of platform, it is a bit difficult, but for experienced engineers, it is not that difficult. When you have been doing a lot of work for about one or two hours, and you have a lot of tabs open, it slows down or gets stuck. There is a delay of 10 to 15 seconds in opening tabs or dashboards. I don't know why this happens, but for me, it is not a big issue. I just wait, and that's all.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The ability to ingest Office 365 log files, then process them into events and display them on a map."

"The log aggregation and storage provided by InsightIDR has shown no issues with scalability; aggregating over one hundred millions events daily."

"The technical support is a solid 10 out of 10 as they take the time to answer any questions or problems which may arise in a reasonable time frame."

"I like the tool's user analysis feature."

"The solution provides satisfying native integration features"

"The solution is very stable and works very well for what I need it to do."

"The alerting to drive investigations and remediation has been its most valuable feature."

"I rate Rapid7 nine out of 10 for affordability"

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

"We can select the resource group name or functionality directly of which type of security tool logs we want. We don't need to write the query for that; we just have to select."

"The detection of threats and reduction of false positive alarms as compared to other solutions are valuable features. It has improved threat detection response and reduced a lot of noise from false positives as compared to our previous SIEM solutions."

"The software includes user behavior interactions, dashboards, and training capabilities."

"The solution is time-saving, particularly in the long run after it is deployed, enabling us to get value promptly."

"I find customer service to be very good."

"We can customize our use cases with the tools provided by Securonix. It is an excellent tool that can ingest data in different ways and is very flexible."

"The solution has proven to be stable so far...The solution is easy to scale up."

"What I like most is that the threat models and risk scoring are very accurate and very helpful to the analysts on my team. They help highlight the most important things for them to look at."

More Securonix Next-Gen SIEM pros

Cons

"It would be useful to import threat intelligence in YARA format along with known incorrect email addresses."

"The solution's XDR agents cannot compete with the XDR solutions out there yet."

"The reporting is the weakest aspect. There needs to be multi-level grouping for events (for example, group by user and destination). Right now, we can do a group by user and a separate table or group by destination. But I'd be more interested in where a person was logging into instead of who was logging in or where he was logging in."

"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"

"The dashboard is an area that could be simplified."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR is not intuitive to search for logs. It should be more user-friendly and improve the dashboards. We should be able to use ready-made templates instead of having to build one."

"Sometimes, it is hard to get the right queries to use. Currently, the tool lacks a pre-made set of queries."

"Inability to get access to compliance reports within the solution."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

"We have a lot of users who, because they're engineers and they're bringing down product data - where, at times, a top-level product could be 10,000 or 15,000 objects - it's difficult for us to determine what should be a concern and what shouldn't be a concern. We work with the Securonix folks to try to come up with better ways to identify that."

"Parsing needs to be improved. Every time we integrate a new, specific data source, we face a lot of problems in parsing, even for the old data source."

"It could be improved a little bit more for admin users. There should be more administrative options related to security for admin users. For example, for forensic purposes, the admin should be able to stop a specific user from erasing some information. I would be helpful in certain situations, such as during an internal fraud."

"There is slight room for improvement in terms of the initial deployment. What I see is that Securonix is more focused on their product. They are expanding, in a big way, the number of customers. So there has to be a number of dedicated teams to jump on and speed up the deployment process."

"The dashboards in Securonix Next-Gen SIEM need more customization and informational capabilities."

"The passing and setup are quite complex at the beginning, making onboarding not smooth, which is an area that needs improvement."

"One aspect that could be improved is the pricing of the product in Brazil."

"A helpful feature would be an event export. A way to create more substantial summary reports would be nice."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."

"Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product."

"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."

"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."

"I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability."

"It is a reasonably priced solution."

"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."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR is priced very well and is cost-effective."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pricing and cost advice

"Licensing is based on events per second (EPS), costing between $50 to $60 per EPS."

"The pricing is fine compared to the market but I think that at some point the competitors will catch up on price."

"The solution's price is double the competitors."

"A good thing about Securonix is that they don't charge by volume of data or number of devices... They charge by the number of employees, which is a much more predictable number for me, versus data. Our costs are in the $100,000 range over a three-year subscription."

"Its price is fine. We found it to be cheaper than LogRhythm, Exabeam, Splunk, as well as Elastic Security. A few months ago, when we were comparing Securonix with Elastic Security, we found Securonix to be cheaper than Elasticsearch. We were pretty surprised that Elastic Security is more expensive than Securonix because Elasticsearch is just starting, and it cannot compete with Securonix at this time. So, the pricing of Securonix is pretty good for now."

"The pricing is good, but by adding more things, the licensing becomes more complex because an EPS license fluctuates a lot. This licensing concept is going to be problematic in the long run."

"We went in on a three-year agreement which has an annual licensing fee, based upon the number of people that we're monitoring. There have not been any additional costs to the standard licensing fees."

"I had heard that it was much cheaper than Splunk and some of the other tools, and they gave us a nice package with support. They accommodated the number of users and support very well."
