We performed a comparison between Google Chronicle Suite and Rapid7 InsightIDR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product's most valuable feature is threat hunting. We can detect the threats directly from the console from the past data as well."
"Google Chronicle Suite provides useful APIs."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the search option, allowing easy navigation."
"The support team is responsive."
"The log folder is fairly simple."
"The platform's most valuable features are multiple connectors and data output flexibility regarding dashboards and user experience."
"Google Chronicle Suite is a highly scalable solution with good search capabilities."
"What sets Chronicle apart from other solutions is its emphasis on threat hunting rather than solely serving as a monitoring tool."
"The solution is very scalable in terms of the licensing model."
"It is a very stable solution."
"During simulations or demonstrations, the tool generates alerts, providing details such as the specific application, its origin, and potential threats. For instance, it can identify if an application belongs to a known ransomware group. The system rates the threat, offering a clear detection ratio, such as 97 out of 100. It not only identifies threats but also illustrates the associated behaviors, helping us understand the potential risk to a particular endpoint."
"The solution is easy to use, and the interface is intuitive."
"Features for user behavior analytics and the rules for attack review are good."
"The incident case management is the most valuable feature. Even though there's always something I find I would like to add to that feature, the ability to quickly sort through all the logs, network and endpoint data, etc., and add it to an incident case as part of the investigation, is nice. Having it automatically timeline that additional data into the original incident timeline, and correlate it to other notable events and activities on the network, results in a huge improvement in our overall confidence that we've quickly traced down the right source of an issue."
"Another very important part of insightIDR is the ability to collect data from endpoint devices via agent software. With a large remote workforce, this allows visibility into the endpoints that are connected to the internet, but not to the corporate network."
"Integration with threat modeling from the Metasploit and InsightIDR repositories."
"The tool is complicated for a first-time user. It should also include newer APIs."
"The product's default dashboard feature has a few limitations regarding availability."
"In terms of improvement, the UI can be a bit challenging for beginners."
"The configuration is not optimal."
"The tool is a little bit difficult to use compared to Microsoft Sentinel."
"The solution's graphical user interface (GUI) should be more user-friendly."
"The tool needs to improve tasking packages. Its GUI needs to be improved. The product needs to include time-based filtration. We can only see the alert detection timeline now."
"A few areas are difficult to understand for someone who has less experience using the product."
"One thing that springs to mind is easier API integration with ITSMs. We are evaluating a new ITSM and I would like to have InsightIDR create a ticket when an attack is identified, and the ticket would be closed in InsightIDR when the ITSM resolution is completed. This would take out the "single point of failure" we currently have, if the email recipient is somehow absent, in recording the risk appetite for the incident and the actions taken to mitigate or not."
"Lacks a mobile application."
"The searching feature in Rapid7 InsightIDR needs to evolve"
"The reporting is the weakest aspect. There needs to be multi-level grouping for events (for example, group by user and destination). Right now, we can do a group by user and a separate table or group by destination. But I'd be more interested in where a person was logging into instead of who was logging in or where he was logging in."
"InsightIDR is only available in a cloud version. Some of our customers prefer an on-prem solution because they want to manage the security within their environment."
"Customised alert recipients need to be added to allow better first-line action and quicker response. Configurable honeypots would be a welcome addition."
"Sometimes, it is hard to get the right queries to use. Currently, the tool lacks a pre-made set of queries."
"The interface for doing investigation needs to be enhanced with minor improvements that would make it more useful."
