Muhammad Aamir Riaz - PeerSpot reviewer
Useful for automation and reporting and has open API for seamless integration
It was easy to integrate the tool with our infrastructure because all the APIs are pre-built. We just created a drag-and-drop prompt to integrate the solution with our infrastructure. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten. Everyone needs to evaluate this solution according to their organization's needs because it can integrate well, but this depends on the technology you already have in your organization. It is an automation tool for detection and response, and while integration is possible, using legacy products could create issues. Some legacy products are closed systems and do not expose their APIs to other vendors. In such cases, you could run into problems. If you are considering this solution, check which APIs are available before you proceed. Otherwise, you may get the solution, but you must spend time on integrations. They provide integration support, but it's not automatic; it will take time.
Usman Bhatti - PeerSpot reviewer
Simple deployment, scalable, but lacking third-party solution compatibility
Integrating IBM Resilient with other applications can be very difficult and technically challenging. Often, they use the excuse that you are using the latest version of an application, such as an endpoint security system, and they don't have an API or support for it at the moment. There is no automation in the SOAR solution. It's worth noting that many third-party add-on applications needed to be purchased separately to integrate with IBM Resilient. While there were built-in applications available for incident remediation, the selection was limited. Additionally, integrating third-party applications was often a difficult and time-consuming process due to the technical complexity involved.

"Integration with some devices, including Cisco PowerPower and certain antivirus products, has limitations."
"IBM Resilient is quite complex, including its configuration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The licensing cost for IBM Resilient is not too expensive, but it's not affordable, so it's moderately expensive. Regarding price, I'm rating the solution seven out of ten. The company pays for the license yearly, based on the number of users. Apart from the cost of the license you need to pay for each user, you also need to spend an initial investment for the base platform. You also have to pay for IBM Resilient support."
"I would rate the tool’s pricing a three out of ten. The tool’s pricing is on a yearly basis."
"It is very expensive."
"The cost of the product is quite high."
"I feel it is an expensive product when my company pays annually for renewal, support, and follow-up."
"There is a license you need to pay for in order to use this product."
"We could create unlimited users using the license we had purchased."
"There are no costs except for the support services that our company pays in addition to the licensing charges attached to the solution."
