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 …

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 …

It’s very easy to deploy from our rmm and delivers fast responses to issues
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
Microsoft was cheaper, but way more difficult to get setup and deployed and to manage. VMWare carbon black got purchased by broadsoft, so I doged a bullet there.

VMware Carbon Black EDR
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
SentinelOne Singularity is a far superior product to Symantec Endpoint Security, which is the product we migrated from, when we purchased SentinelOne. Symantec simply missed security incidents it should have been able to catch, and support has recently changed for the worse. …
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
In the distant past we had used iSensor through Dell. I can't say much about iSensor because we never really had it show any incidents or activity or reports. It might be better these days but from what I can tell, SentinelOne is the Gold Standard currently.
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
There is no question, although they all have pro's and cons, SentinelOne is far superior
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
SentinelOne and Microsoft Defender are both best of industry EDR solutions. We employ both in out environment in tandem to provided complete coverage of systems and protection against all emerging cyber threats.
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
Webroot is a great product but did not provide the versatility that we really were desiring. It allowed to us to centrally manage, but required policy-based management, and not the endpoint detail we wanted. SentinelOne's central management provides a variety of options for …
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
SentinelOne is definitely next-gen endpoint protection which makes it better than Symantec or Trend in that category. It prevents attacks and installs, allows you to monitor and update on the fly and works well overall. Also it is not as bulky as other products so you don't get …
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
SentinelOne had all of the major features that we were looking for. The other products either required too much administrative attention or were lacking key features. For example, one could be uninstalled by the end user. We required that the installation be password …
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
Compared to the competition there really is no comparison. While there are many far better known endpoint protection products that have been around many years longer, SentinelOne puts them all to shame. It is the most solid endpoint/anti-virus product that I have used in over …
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
There are in my opinion products with the characteristics that can be [compared] to SentinelOne.
Chose SentinelOne Singularity
SentinelOne has provided us better protection than other products we used in the past. We have also seen less impact on the system performance.

Only reason for choosing SentinelOne Singularity over crowdstrike was the cost because SentinelOne Singularity was much cheaper at that time as compared to the crowdstrike. Also, SentinelOne Singularity rating in gartner was higher than the crowdstrike which also gave it an …

It has been brilliant for us in terms of understanding the behaviour affecting our endpoints and assets. We have full visibility of our alerts, which menas we can act on them immediately. We use a single pain of glass with dashboards that can be easily drilled down into to get further information. It has laso helped us eo create bespoke reports for senios Managmeent, while at the same time supports other teams like Network Mnagement and Operations.

It works extremely well for investigating the root cause analysis of events because you can see so much detail into what was happening before, after, and around the detective incident. A weak point would be when the AI gets a little over-aggressive or doesn’t quite understand the use case for specific tools. Our RMM tool was detected as a pup.

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.

  • Possibly for compatibility with legacy Windows OS's and non Windows OS's.
  • Some settings are greyed out and unable to change but I believe this is to protect you from making a bad configuration change.
  • Could do better with reporting at the base level subscription.

Usability

There are some minor issues with the platform that can be mildly frustrating, but the overall performance, peace of mind, and ROI make it worth using. The management console is intuitive and easy to learn, the endpoint clients are simple but give IT professionals enough data to make management easy and simple

Their support is good and quick to respond. The one issue we faced was when a non-protection issue arose there was a lot of dancing around trying to figure things out. This was frustrating as it took significantly longer to figure out issues. Lots of repetitive log gathers, screen caps, uninstalls that never seemed to resolve issues. Eventually, the product would be updated and the issue seemed to be resolved, but seemed to be the only solution.

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.

  • SentinelOne has already proved its value by stopping attacks that would have gone otherwise unnoticed until much later in their infection process.
  • The Vigilance team has provided quick response to threats that were not easily contained via the automated response SentinelOne's agents provide. This has given us a significant piece of mind.
