Karsh Trivedi - PeerSpot reviewer
Security Engineer at Payatu
Automation has transformed incident response and case management has boosted daily productivity
TheHive is actually quite beautiful and very optimized. If I had to improve anything, I would say that it could improve costing. TheHive is pretty expensive right now. With a low number of users, it works for how the business runs, but I feel that it is pretty expensive when you want to go for the commercial versions, which is where people might not want to go with it. Cost is the only downside, but it is the major downside. I would like to share an incident with you about a recent meeting I had with a client regarding TheHive. The only trigger that they had not to go with TheHive was the cost. Everything looked very good and was very fine, but the costing part was hard. The costing part was something that made them hold off on TheHive and choose a different solution. Over the years, TheHive has improved significantly in how the platform is used and how cases are managed. One good feature that I appreciated when I moved from TheHive 4 to TheHive 5 was the dark mode. When Strange Bee did the rebranding and made it a closed-source product, they added the dark mode feature, which I need because I am not good with light screens. TheHive was the only tool having only white mode capabilities. Once they added it, they have improved a lot. Many connectors are added, and many more integrations are possible now with TheHive. Basically, the appearance, performance, and integrations have improved a lot over the years.

Centralized networking has secured multi-cloud data pipelines and improves analytics reliability
VNS3 could improve in terms of ease of setup, as while it is powerful, initial configuration for complex multi-cloud topologies can still feel quite technical and requires strong networking knowledge. Another potential improvement would be to tighten native integration with modern data stack tools; Airflow, dbt, and cloud data warehouses can benefit from more out-of-the-box connectivity templates. Additionally, the user interface and observability experience could be more modern and intuitive, especially for quickly diagnosing network flows without diving deep into logs. A pain point regarding needed improvements is that troubleshooting can still feel quite network engineering heavy. For data teams in my organization, we often want more pipeline-level visibility, such as directly seeing which ETL jobs or data flows are impacted when a tunnel or route changes. I would also appreciate more automation around policy setup, such as having auto-generated secure network templates for common data architectures such as AWS to Snowflake or on-premises to BigQuery, which would significantly reduce setup time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The people at TheHive have made it very customizable, flexible, and very security-centric, as they understand what a particular incident responder or security team needs and provide it quite well."
"TheHive has positively impacted my organization because before that, we did not have a good solution to register the tickets."
"TheHive has positively impacted our organization because it is a free solution."
"VNS3 has positively impacted my organization by centralizing management and reducing operations overhead in terms of manpower and cost."
"People should try VNS3 as we have not faced any issues with this product and I recommend it to others."
 

Cons

"TheHive can be improved because if you want to use it in a small or medium company, it will be really good, but for a really huge company like mine was, I believe that at least on the free version, you will have big issues regarding performance because the solution is not built for a huge company like mine was."
"Cost is the only downside, but it is the major downside."
"I would rate it a seven because I think the design could be better in TheHive."
"VNS3 could improve in terms of ease of setup, as while it is powerful, initial configuration for complex multi-cloud topologies can still feel quite technical and requires strong networking knowledge."
"VNS3 could benefit from additional features such as the ability to share files through a pre-signed URL, which would be useful for team members to collaborate."
