    Recorded Future
    If you want a platform that is covering thousands of sources, and that includes deep, dark web, clear web forums, blogs, newspapers, social media networks, etc. Recorded Future is the most complete solution that I have seen. On the other hand, if you are looking for a really advanced platform with lot of human added value, research papers, advanced investigations, etc. Recorded Future might not be the ideal solution.

    Pros
    Recorded Future
    • Gives latest threat reports regarding an artifact (IP, domain or hash).
    • Browser extension provides a real-time information about an artifact.
    • Accurate in identifying malicious domains and IPs.

    Skybox Security
    • Skybox manages compliance for firewalls better than we have seen with other tools.
    • Skybox integrates into standard change management tools so change control can flow through Skybox and assist with all decisions to implement a change.
    • The Skybox network map is more detailed than other management tools showing us paths other tools didn't find.

    Cons
    Recorded Future
    • E-Mail reports can show unrelated content, especially sometimes you'll see alerts popping up for articles which have been published years ago but for some reason were just recently discovered by RF.
    • Yara rules from their insikt blog sometimes are not syntactically correct and need to be manually edited to actually work. There's some proper QA missing.
    • Their global and 3rd party risk reports could be more tailored towards the industries of their client. There is entries for totally unrelated security incidents. Of course a global list aims to find incidents on a global view, but it doesn't add much value at that point.

    Skybox Security
    • User experience. On the first approach, it's not the simplest tool that I have ever used.
    • Web-based console. In my honest opinion it's very important [to have] this type of functionality to extend the use of Skybox.
    • Too many updates of the product.

    Recorded Future
    I've had an issue with their browser-plugin which didn't want to authenticate correctly. RF's support could arrange for a session with me and identify and solve the issue. I was very pleased how serious they took my problems and also how knowledgeable they are.
    If I have more general questions they quickly reply and most likely also have a solution at hand.

    The support team needs to be improved especially in their response and awareness about recent bugs in their solution. For example, sometimes they are not aware about how to integrate specific vendors like Microsoft Azure and they still don't have answers to it until now.

    Recorded Future
    It is the most complete solution of these three, as the others are focused in specific areas and having really detailed analysis about threat actors, APT groups, etc. Recorded Future is not having this level of knowledge in really specific areas but doing a really good work covering thousands of sources and the most relevant forums.

    Return on Investment
    Recorded Future
    • Recorded Future crashes my web browser in cases I have to open a web page containing hundreds of IPs. A quick disable feature for a particular tab would be beneficial for someone like me.
