Has powerful event correlations and is stable, scalable, and easy to set up
We use it for insider threat prevention with iPhones and to identify bad practices that block business processes I like that the core functionality is not in different modules. The event correlation is quite powerful. Incident management could be improved, along with enforcement capabilities,…

Head Of Cyber Security at Super Secure
Has supported compliance needs for mid-sized organizations but lacks customization and advanced integration
If we pitch Rapid7 InsightIDR against solutions such as SIEMs from Splunk or LogRhythm, it is not as customizable as a SIEM solution is. This is where it can improve if we keep in front the feature sets of a complete SIEM solution. Most common in the market is QRadar, but it is depleting now. It has been taken over by some other products such as Splunk and LogRhythm. If we compare these things with Rapid7 InsightIDR, then there are definitely some gaps that need to be filled. Data retention is also one concern because Rapid7 InsightIDR is cloud-based and operates on a subscription model. Whatever data you want to retain, it has to be paid for separately or it has a cost. Other solutions that are on-premises can have their own infrastructure or they provide some data retention for a month or in some capacity-wise, they provide that solution to them which makes them more attractive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like that the core functionality is not in different modules. The event correlation is quite powerful."
"Simple configuration and automatically syncs to the cloud platform."
"I like the tool's user analysis feature."
"InsightIDR has allowed us to find potential security issues that we did not know existed, and get remediation quickly."
"The solution provides satisfying native integration features"
"The technical support is a solid 10 out of 10 as they take the time to answer any questions or problems which may arise in a reasonable time frame."
"It improved my organization by building a security alerting program."
"Another very important part of insightIDR is the ability to collect data from endpoint devices via agent software. With a large remote workforce, this allows visibility into the endpoints that are connected to the internet, but not to the corporate network."
"Features for user behavior analytics and the rules for attack review are good."
 

Cons

"Incident management could be improved, along with enforcement capabilities, which DTEX does not have at the moment."
"One of the things that could be better is digital forensics. It is there, but it can be better."
"The dashboard is an area that could be simplified. For management, it should be clear and the files should be there."
"The reporting is the weakest aspect. There needs to be multi-level grouping for events (for example, group by user and destination)."
"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."
"Needs a better ability to customize the check within the console."
"Rapid7's customer support is awful. They didn't respond at all."
"Sometimes, it is hard to get the right queries to use. Currently, the tool lacks a pre-made set of queries."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing wise, DTEX would be a four on a scale from one to ten, where one is the highest price and 10 is the lowest price. It is not the cheapest solution."
"It is on a yearly basis. For our own company, for about 250 users, it was 16,000 euros a year."
"​I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability.​"
"I rate Rapid7 InsightIDR's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The solution has a mid-range price point in the market"
"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."
"The pricing of the solution depends on the user. But there is a yearly licensing cost."
"It is more reasonably priced than other vendors."
"It is a reasonably priced solution."
