Overall Satisfaction with Rapid7 InsightVM

I use Rapid7 InsightVM to help identify and remediate our vulnerabilities. The business problems are discovering and remediating vulnerabilities. The scope is to identify and addressing all vulnerabilities in our organization. We also use Rapid7 InsightVM to track CIS baseline policy compliance for various operating systems. The includes MacOS, Windows and Linux. We are able to scan all assets and prioritized vulnerabilities for remediation.

Pros

  • Rapid7 InsightVM is good at agentless scanning.
  • Rapid7 InsightVM integration with ServiceNow works very well.
  • Rapid7 InsightVM scales very well with deploying scan engines. It can be used in large organizations.
  • The user interface of Rapid7 InsightVM is very intuitive and user friendly. It is easy to use.

Cons

  • I think Rapid7 InsightVM could do a better job with their report capabilities. There should be more canned reports include that are most used.
  • There should be a way to bulk address specific assets with a particular vulnerability.
  • I think that Rapid7 InsightVM does a good job and provide us with value on addressing vulnerabilities.
Overall I think Rapid7 InsightVM is a very good vulnerability management tool. It gets the jobs done and prioritizes vulnerability based on severities. With an integration to ServiceNow additional component can be added to add more context to the prioritization of vulnerabilities. Deployment of scan engines makes it easy to scan assets without deploying agents to every asset.
Rapid7 InsightVM is more cost effective than the other solution on the market. It is easy to deploy and the user interface is easy to use and intuative. We select Rapid7 InsightVM mainly because it integrates well with ServiceNow compared to the other solution that were evaluated. The other main driver for choosing Rapid7 InsightVM was because of it's scalability.

Yes

I think Rapid7 InsightVM is well suited for large enterprise customers with a lot of assets. It integrates well with a number of different ITSM solutions which I think is very good. There are not many CIS benchmarking tools on the market and Rapid7 InsightVM does a very good job at benchmarking.
I think where Rapid7 InsightVM falls down a little is on false positive vulnerabilities. Sometime you there a few positive results on vulnerabily discovery. Tuning the settings for scan engines can sometimes be trick as well.
