Great at managing cyber incidents; the technical support could be improved

The initial setup is easy, partly because LogRhythm is primarily based on the Windows platform. It's good to have two engineers for deployment but it can be done with one. It's more about the knowledge. Deployment is typically done in two or three different phases. It usually takes up to three full months to get good deployment. There's the initial onboarding of all the log sources, then collecting data in the data lake, followed a couple of weeks later with some minor tuning before the final tuneup.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."

"The tool's most valuable feature is server threat hunting."

"The solution is useful for privilege accounts and super admin accounts. It is beneficial from a security perspective. The tool uses machine learning rather than threshold-based alerts. For instance, it can detect unusual user logins, such as a user logging in from a new browser or location."

"The solution's most valuable features are the graphical user interface and the reporting."

"It has a lot of features. It has file integration monitoring."

"The most valuable features are file activity monitoring and registry activity monitoring."

"It is easy to monitor users and that is how the solution is adding value to our firm."

"I typically use the product for reducing cyber risk, and I can investigate attacks more quickly using machine learning tools."

More LogRhythm UEBA pros

"The alerting to drive investigations and remediation has been its most valuable feature."

"The biggest reason why we chose Rapid7 was to gain value in a really quick time. Its deployment doesn't take months. It just takes a few days."

"InsightIDR has allowed us to find potential security issues that we did not know existed, and get remediation quickly."

"Log search allows us to dive deep into aggregated logs and query all event types at once."

"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten. As a cloud tool, the product is highly scalable."

"Very intuitive and easy to set up."

"I am able to run automated actions based on the output of reports, leaving me extra time to focus on more pressing matters."

"I have seen that Rapid7 InsightIDR provides security to the networks and endpoints in the company."

Cons

"What needs improvement in LogRhythm UEBA is the pricing. Here in Asia, for example, in Sri Lanka, pricing is the primary concern, and this is the only area for improvement I see in the product."

"The product should improve its dashboards. Splunk has neat dashboards. Additionally, we would like to enhance the use cases provided by LogRhythm as its use case library is not as extensive as other tools. Its machine-learning capabilities need to improve when compared to other solutions. It lacks risk quantification in a single, transparent view for individuals such as CSOs."

"The UI could be improved a little bit."

"It would be helpful if there were more guidance provided for integrating with unsupported devices."

"It should have better mitigation with other solutions and be tightly integrated with other solutions. It has to be improved."

"In general, if something needs to be improved in the algorithm, it would be the dashboards."

"LogRhythm UEBA's data aggregation needs to be improved. Open-source users do not have much documentation available. Documentation is available only for enterprise users."

"The search feature needs to be improved."

More LogRhythm UEBA cons

"The solution's XDR agents cannot compete with the XDR solutions out there yet."

"The main problem lies in the processes within the client's operating systems."

"The solution needs improvement in threat intelligence. Increasing the depth of intelligence to help users understand more about threats is a possibility. My suggestion is to expand access to other websites or resources."

"It would be useful to import threat intelligence in YARA format along with known incorrect email addresses."

"I would like to see more development in InsightIDR towards building their SIEM solution and converting it to XDR."

"The APIs can be further improved in Rapid7."

"Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition."

"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."

More Rapid7 InsightIDR cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is quite a budget-friendly product."

"As LogRhythm UEBA is pretty expensive, I'd give its pricing a seven out of ten."

"The pricing is nice when compared to other products in the industry."

"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten. However, the cloud version is expensive. You need to hire professional services for deployment and migrations, which can be expensive."

"LogRhythm UEBA's pricing is affordable for small and medium businesses."

"Licensing is on a yearly basis. It's not expensive compared to its competitors."

"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."

"The pricing is good, and it is not very expensive."

"Rapid7 InsightIDR charges us based on the endpoints we connect to."

"I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability."

"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 solution has a mid-range price point in the market"

"It is a reasonably priced solution."
