Considered Both Products
InsightIDR
Chose InsightIDR
The biggest advantage it has the lightweight agent and smooth and less traffic chaos in network during log collection. Cloud Security always require extra efforts but InsightIDR reduce that burden as it has highly anticipated agents to which knows what they need to do when they …
Chose InsightIDR
Other products are OK, but they lack the robust permissions and their interfaces are much much less intuitive. Rapid7's prioritization system for vulnerabilities makes more sense given their context as the developers of Metasploit. We thought we might be able to switch and save …
Chose InsightIDR
We tried other solutions, but our Network, which is mostly in different locations with different OEMS , was well suited by Rapid7. Rapid7 works with different workflows and SIEM solutions, which was a requirement of the SOC solution. Visibility allows the security operation to …
Chose InsightIDR
Many of the top-tier providers of this technology do a comparable job. However, we selected Rapid7 because of their reputation in the area of user behavior analytics, cost, # of SOC locations (due to our selection of their MDR service), support, company growth in other areas …
Chose InsightIDR
Both products would do what we needed them to, but Rapid7 InsightIDR made more sense from a cost perspective. We did a proof of concept of both products, and they were pretty evenly matched in their own ways. Forescout had a better interface, but in the end the interface of …
Chose InsightIDR
Between Rapid7 InsightIDR and Crowdstrike, we liked Rapid7 InsightIDR due to the functionality of the system and the features Rapid7 InsightIDR has. Rapid7 InsightIDR was very easy to deploy in our environment to our endpoint devices. We like the scanning capabilities and the …

Rootly is great for both remote companies and in-person, but especially well suited for remote. There is such a wide variety of functionalities that Rootly can offer, both internally for your company and externally for your customers. Rootly streamlines and centralizes a lot of data you may be keeping in separate spaces which could be excluding some memebers from being in the loop and adds additional time in your day tracking and organization information. Rootly makes everything real-time for our company through the integrations

Cons
  • Sometimes Rapid7 InsightIDR will be too locked down and without knowing will block applications and processes needed for day to day operation.
  • System scans with Rapid7 InsightIDR can be very bandwidth-heavy on the network and system resources.
  • From a recent incident, we have seen more and more false positives from Rapid7 InsightIDR on areas that we know are secure.

  • while the interface provides great information and everything that you need, there can be a learning curve to understand what you are looking at
  • having all notifications on for slack/teams can cause lots of notifications in a larger organization
  • like any technology, there is room for error with feature issues or integrations issues

Usability

great usability, bit of a learning curve with the product because there is so much information to digest and Rootly gives you lots of different angles and preferences for how you would like to see it displayed. For those with high tech skills its much easier but for those who are less tech savvy it can be overwhelming

Rapid7 InsightIDR was very easy to deploy in our environment to our endpoint devices. We like the scanning capabilities and the console we felt was very easy to use and can be easily caught up to our IT staff. Also during vulnerability scans, we felt that Rapid7 InsightIDR was able to detect more and any competitor out there.
