Prajwal Chougale - PeerSpot reviewer
SOC L2 Analyst at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Centralized threat hunting has improved alert accuracy and simplifies incident investigations
I would say there are two areas for improvement: the reporting dashboard that provides insights or reports weekly or monthly lacks detailed information about how logs are being ingested. While the details are there, they could be more concise and easier to understand for any level of authority. The second area is alert tuning; compared to Microsoft Sentinel, Rapid7 InsightIDR provides fewer alerts with more static alert functionality and lacks dynamic alerting exposures. There could be improvements to learn from past alert activities for more dynamic alert configurations. These two areas are the main areas for improvement; everything else is good.
Dev Reshwal - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Support Executive at Softcell Technologies Limited
Automation has reduced workload and real-time monitoring provides faster incident response
SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM is the best, but sometimes the dashboards are a little simple compared to other tools. The custom dashboard is not available in their features. Therefore, I would suggest adding the custom dashboard for any of our requirements. The AI-driven analytics from SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has not affected our ability to reduce false positives. SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has affected my SOC's efficiency in investigating alerts and responding to incidents. If we receive any alerts, we can observe what activity is being done. We can see if it is malicious or something suspicious, or a true positive. We can analyze the path, the hash, and whether the signature is verified or not. We can see if it is an alert triggered by any engine. We can see the source of this. We will do that type of analysis and raise it to the client side. Also, if I identify anything suspicious or malicious in the alert, I will forcefully kill and quarantine it immediately.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It gives all the advantages of a SIEM, however, using clever AI, it looks for patterns of behavior rather than just flooding me with all the alerts."
"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."
"Integration with threat modeling from the Metasploit and InsightIDR repositories."
"I am able to run automated actions based on the output of reports, leaving me extra time to focus on more pressing matters."
"The UI is very good."
"The solution is easy to use, and the interface is intuitive."
"The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution is very intuitive, it's easy to set up, is absolutely stable, and has a lot of integration with other security products."
"AI-driven capabilities will give me real-time detection and will protect my autonomous AI interruption."
"After using SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM, it has reduced our incident response time by forty to fifty percent compared to other tools."
"When they face attacks such as ransomware and are dissatisfied with their existing solutions, they switch to SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM, which is quite good in detecting unknown threats, cleaning the system, and handling ransomware."
"The best features of SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM include its user-friendly interface, ease of deployment, and ease of use, and it is also easy to control the devices, as we block USB on all machines, export the configuration of machines, and have very good visibility of the instance with excellent reports."
"The beauty of the integration is that it integrates very smoothly with third-party tools, so we do not need to think about the parsers, coding, depending on the codes, or the software developers."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has impacted my organization positively because I am observing some improvement, including real-time monitoring and real-time threat detection that help secure both our and the client's organization from anything suspicious or any malicious types of alerts."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has positively impacted my organization by improving visibility, reducing investigation time, and helping the security team respond to incidents faster."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM's AI-powered analytics does affect our SOC's ability to reduce false positives; that is one of the biggest advantages because the manpower that I have is limited."
 

Cons

"I would like the ability to adjust the threshold of certain existing alerts. Currently the only option is to change the notifications or create my own alert."
"One of the things that could be better is digital forensics. It is there, but it can be better. They could provide more on the endpoint detection level."
"I would like to see more development in InsightIDR towards building their SIEM solution and converting it to XDR."
"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."
"The main problem lies in the processes within the client's operating systems."
"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."
"Rapid7's customer support is awful. They didn't respond at all."
"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."
"It is quite good, but the only downside is that it is costly."
"Unfortunately, I was not happy with SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM because it is not mature yet."
"Customer support could be better because it is frequently transferred to various agents."
"SentinelOne Singularity AI SIEM has some performance and reliability issues that need improvement."
"While it provides many built-in decorations and dashboards, creating highly customized decoration rules and reports can sometimes require additional efforts."
"The AI-generated investigations can occasionally require manual validation for complex incidents."
"In AI SIEM, the areas that have room for improvement are the parsers for third-party integrated data or for third-party data sources that are not native integrations, which could be made a bit easier."
"What I dislike is that the dashboard is very old, so they do not have much capability to be honest."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Rapid7 InsightIDR is a cheaply priced product. On a scale of one to ten, where one is very expensive, and ten is very cheap, I rate the product's price at seven or eight."
"I rate Rapid7 InsightIDR's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"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."
"The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help.​"
"The solution has a mid-range price point in the market"
"​Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product.​"
"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."
