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.

It improves the detection speed, but it could be more customizable
They need to stop changing Vision One once a week. They're in a hurry to change things so badly and so fast that I can't find where stuff is half the time, which is a challenge sometimes. I've given one piece of feedback to their product guys. One thing that they're trying to make is a SIEM. It's a product where you input all the logs from your tools, and it creates additional insights into how things look. They've been kind of playing the "me too" game on that, even though that's not what I bought the product for. They have a new gateway where I can take my firewall of email logs and send it over there. In theory, it's supposed to do a more comprehensive evaluation of all my stuff to improve that risk index score. I'm not impressed with it, and I've told them as much. I feel if you're good at something, you should keep working on that and not try to be all the things to all the people. I bought a different email solution even though it would have been 10 times easier to just stay with their email solution because they aren't great at it. They are great at other things, but they're playing the "me too" game with some of their products. Their competitors do this, so they should be doing this, too. They need to pick a product and keep being good at that. If they're going to roll new things out, they should do it but do it right. They have a button to isolate an endpoint because it looks bad, but it doesn't usually work. I've had no chance to argue with the product guys to show them examples of how their button doesn't work. You think it does, but it doesn't work in a real environment. That can be a challenge sometimes. I can see in the data showing what is a false positive. But it doesn't save me time helping them figure out how to fix the problem in their engine. It can help me identify it as a false positive, but it doesn't apply that consistently. It will ignore the false positive for that device, but if they start detecting a false positive on Apple devices, I have eight thousand Apple devices and get 8,000 alerts. I can tell that specific false positive, but it doesn't learn from that particularly well. We use the executive dashboards, but I don't find them particularly useful. One is the ability to customize. That has gotten a little better, and it'll be better in the future. Most of what they have on there are data points that are generic and not particularly actionable. That's why it's called an executive dashboard. Executives want to see if we are secure, but it's hard for me to find out why our attack surface risk went down by x percentage. I don't know. It says that on the dashboard, but it doesn't give me specific details about why. I find it confuses my executives, and it's not useful for me because it doesn't give me things to work on. It will give me generic things on the executive dashboard like you have a thousand accounts with an old password. Those are big generic things, but I also can't tell it that our password policy is different from what your automatic detection model means, and I don't have a problem with that, so quit lowering my risk score. The risk score is useless. In theory, it's based on the random intelligence they're getting from their various customers. I'm in K-12 education, so they have a decent amount of K-12 customers, but it's a subset, and the baseline of what's common in K-12 education is not the same. There's not enough data to make that particularly clean or useful. Vision One is not custom, and that's part of my beef. That index score is based on whatever random report they're looking at from their data sources at any given moment in time. It's nice, but I'd rather have one that's based on your particular circumstances. Instead, it's saying that the number one attack threat surface for school districts is email phishing. It's too generic.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution provides satisfying native integration features"
"The product works well. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Enables the use of honey pots, honey users, and honey files to monitor for suspicious patterns."
"InsightIDR has allowed us to find potential security issues that we did not know existed, and get remediation quickly."
"The solution is easy to use, and the interface is intuitive."
"I rate Rapid7 nine out of 10 for affordability"
"It improved my organization by building a security alerting program."
"The UI is very good."
"Drilling down further, we can analyze how our users are utilizing their workstations, including the websites they visit."
"The telemetric report is the most valuable feature."
"It is so helpful to have something that pulls all the data into one visual representation of the events."
"It helps us with investigations."
"Trend Vision One's most valuable feature is its centralized console, which provides comprehensive security features, including attack surface risk management."
"Trend Micro XDR is stable, scalable, and reasonably priced."
"It is a stable product. It works very well."
"Trend Vision One has helped reduce our time to detect and respond to threats by 30% to 40%."
 

Cons

"InsightIDR is only available in a cloud version. Some of our customers prefer an on-prem solution because they want to manage the security within their environment."
"Lacks a mobile application."
"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."
"There are certain limitations with Rapid7 that I am working on."
"They should add more configuration and security features to it."
"The product allows us to make only 30 custom rules."
"The solution's XDR agents cannot compete with the XDR solutions out there yet."
"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."
"They need to stop changing Vision One once a week. They're in a hurry to change things so badly and so fast that I can't find where stuff is half the time, which is a challenge sometimes."
"Vision One generates numerous false positives, forcing unnecessary investigations and highlighting a need for improved filtering options."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly. It would also be better if the implementation were more straightforward."
"In future releases of Trend Vision One, I would like to see improvements regarding role-based access control, as it is important to ensure that when granting admin access to a person, their visibility is limited to only their respective markets. For example, while creating roles for countries like France, Germany, and Italy, they should only manage their own endpoints to maintain privacy and security."
"Expanding compatibility to include currently unsupported security tools, such as firewalls, would be beneficial."
"There should be improvements in risk quantification, where the risk is displayed in a quantified manner, showing the dollar value loss."
"Trend Vision One requires several enhancements for optimal performance."
"Vision One could improve its area networking and email security."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."
"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."
"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."
"Licensing is by endpoint and amount of retention time (at least ours is). Default retention was one year, but we are able to push the retention further if needed. There's also a provide-your-own-S3 option for longer retention if you don't want to pay for the additional retention years in your Rapid7 agreement."
"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."
"The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help.​"
"It is on a yearly basis. For our own company, for about 250 users, it was 16,000 euros a year."
"The pricing for Trend Vision One is reasonable."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive but we got a good deal from Trend Micro."
"It is very good. The flexibility to temporarily exceed license limits when setting up new devices is helpful, as it allows us to ensure security before purchasing additional licenses."
"The pricing is competitive, and the cost aligns with the features we receive."
"Trend Vision One is cost-effective because it offers detailed reporting and environment control features."
"It's relatively well-priced."
"We have an annual subscription and I believe there is no option for monthly billing at the moment."
"They've introduced a credit system, where we purchase credits and then allocate them to the specific services we need active."
