Overall Satisfaction with Rapid7 InsightConnect

In our environment Rapid7 InsightConnect is used our virus protection solution. We utilize it to monitor our technical landscape and reduce the risk of any virus attacks and patch vulnerabilities. With its scanning and automation features we are able to rely on it to uphold security in our IT environment and continue to improve our security posture with the many new vulnerabilities surfacing daily.

Pros

  • It monitors malicious behavior in across our systems so that we can be proactive in catching any viruses.
  • Based on what threats surfaces, it automatically quarantines and mitigates vulnerabilities allowing for fast and efficient response.
  • It will install easily across the environment allowing for simple rollout and quick security.

Cons

  • It would be great if Rapid7 InsightConnect could be configured based on pre determined specifications when installing the agent.
  • We've noticed that at times, there are certain network parameters needed in order for Rapid7 to collect and report data efficiently.
  • Sometimes there are issues with the discovery scan in Rapid7 making it hard to configure in the beginning.
  • Vulnerability scans.
  • Real time monitoring against threats and other security deficiencies.
  • Discovery scans to make sure any new devices in our environment get added to its protection policies.
  • During quarterly security assessments we are able to use Rapid7's reporting to present how good or bad we are doing in our InfoSec department.
  • It has allowed us to be scaleable in managing our virus protection as we are able configure the type of protection we want which saves us resources and money down the line.
  • All of our endpoints remain secure and updated with the latest security definitions allowing us to focus on other aspects of the technical landscape.
In our opinion, Rapid7 InsightConnect was a better choice for our environment as we were able to roll it out efficiently. Also the monitoring tools and reporting were easier to use and read. CrowdStrike appeared to be harder to install from a client standpoint and also we felt that Rapid7 fit our budget a bit better for the value we getting.
