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

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

"Dashboards, including the main screen, provide much-needed information at a glance, without hours of coding and sifting through logs to find it. In case of an actual security incident, I have faith that insightIDR has retained all logs in a secure manner that prevents log tampering as well."

"During simulations or demonstrations, the tool generates alerts, providing details such as the specific application, its origin, and potential threats. For instance, it can identify if an application belongs to a known ransomware group. The system rates the threat, offering a clear detection ratio, such as 97 out of 100. It not only identifies threats but also illustrates the associated behaviors, helping us understand the potential risk to a particular endpoint."

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

"The biggest reason why we chose Rapid7 was to gain value in a really quick time. Its deployment doesn't take months. It just takes a few days."

"The incident case management is the most valuable feature. Even though there's always something I find I would like to add to that feature, the ability to quickly sort through all the logs, network and endpoint data, etc., and add it to an incident case as part of the investigation, is nice. Having it automatically timeline that additional data into the original incident timeline, and correlate it to other notable events and activities on the network, results in a huge improvement in our overall confidence that we've quickly traced down the right source of an issue."

"I definitely recommend Rapid7 InsightIDR."

"I rate Rapid7 nine out of 10 for affordability"

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pros

"The most valuable features of Securonix UEBA include insider threat monitoring, which provides complete visibility of user activities, and next-gen AI-based behavior analytics."

"The feature dashboard is very well organized and intuitive to use. It organizes information on a timeline which is exactly what we need for insider threat future-analysis."

"The most valuable features of Securonix UEBA include insider threat monitoring, which provides complete visibility of user activities, and next-gen AI-based behavior analytics."

"Their user and entity behavior analysis algorithms are the most valuable features."

"One of the most valuable features is UEBA. It's pretty helpful for us to make sure of our thresholds for any of our clients."

Cons

"Currently, it lacks the functionalities provided by Rapid7's User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."

"They should add more configuration and security features to it."

"One thing that springs to mind is easier API integration with ITSMs. We are evaluating a new ITSM and I would like to have InsightIDR create a ticket when an attack is identified, and the ticket would be closed in InsightIDR when the ITSM resolution is completed. This would take out the "single point of failure" we currently have, if the email recipient is somehow absent, in recording the risk appetite for the incident and the actions taken to mitigate or not."

"The product allows us to make only 30 custom rules."

"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."

"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."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

"There is room for improvement in the algorithms. Although I said that we have a very solid starting point - our existing library is already very comprehensive - we constantly find areas where we need to develop new algorithms. That is common across platforms. Any vendor with a solid starting point would still need to continue to evolve."

"The area that needs improvement is reporting."

"The support system is not very good as of now."

"The integration with other tools, like EDRs and other technology tools, can be improved."

"When compared to others, if you look at the integration aspect, I believe that some aspects of integration can be enhanced."

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help."

"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."

"I rate Rapid7 InsightIDR's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"The pricing and licensing are competitive."

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

"It is a reasonably priced solution."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR pricing and cost advice

"When compared to other solutions, it is less expensive."

"The cost is approximately $50 per user per year."

"Their pricing is pretty comfortable. They will work with you on the cost."
