Pros
"It's a very user-friendly product and it's a very comprehensive technology.""The most valuable feature of Exabeam Fusion SIEM is the easy-to-use user interface.""The solution's initial setup process is easy.""The advanced analytics has a really great overview of user behavior.""I have customers that like the EUBA functionality of it. The solution has the ability to build a session, basically. It pulls a lot of information together, for example, everything a user does in a specific timeframe. It's quite helpful.""Exabeam Fusion SIEM has a good performance and more advantages than traditional solutions.""Timeline based analysis; good platform support""The setup is not difficult. It was easy."

"The solution's initial setup is easy.""The ability to ingest Office 365 log files, then process them into events and display them on a map.""The solution provides satisfying native integration features""The alerting to drive investigations and remediation has been its most valuable feature.​""Log search allows us to dive deep into aggregated logs and query all event types at once.​""Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten. As a cloud tool, the product is highly scalable.""Rapid7 InsightIDR integrates well with other solutions. It's also easy to configure because Rapid7 InsightIDR has a lot of instructions posted on their website that customers can follow if they need to get the source log.""I rate Rapid7 nine out of 10 for affordability"

Cons
"Adding to the number of certifications that they have, for example, ISO 27001, would be helpful.""We still have questions surrounding hardware deployment.""They need to focus on more of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework and coverage. They claim they cover about 70 to 80%. I'm not sure if it's really quite that much, however.""Updating the new release of Exabeam Fusion SIEM takes time and slows our performance.""I believe if it were more flexible it would be a better product.""They should provide detailed information about detecting phishing emails.""We had a large volume right from the beginning and they weren't quite prepared for that. That's something that they should think about when it comes to customers that have a large volume to start off with.""The organzation is rigid and not flexible in the way they operate"

More Exabeam Fusion SIEM Cons →

"It takes time for the product's support team to resolve issues, making it an area of concern where improvements are required.""Needs a better ability to customize the check within the console.""The product allows us to make only 30 custom rules.""Tenable Nessus is easier to deal with. It's more efficient and accurate. InsightIDR is heavier than Tenable in terms of performance and scanning. Rapid7 would be much easier to use if it had a network connector like Tenable. Tenable's connector allows continuous monitoring over the B caps.""The main problem lies in the processes within the client's operating systems.""They should add more configuration and security features to it.""The integration capabilities of the solution have certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""Lacks a mobile application."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "They have a great model for pricing that can be based either on user count or gigabits per day."
  • "There is an annual license required to use Exabeam Fusion SIEM. The price of the solution should be reduced."
  • "Exabeam Fusion SIEM's pricing is reasonable."
  • "The solution is expensive."
  • More Exabeam Fusion SIEM Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "​I am sure that there are cheaper products out there, but none that meet so many of our needs whilst maintaining stability and usability.​"
  • "The team is very willing to work with companies. My suggestion is to call the Rapid7 sales department and see how they can help.​"
  • "Licensing is straightforward. If, for some reason, you don’t meet the minimum licensing requirements, there is a third-party managed service that can help."
  • "​Accurately predict your licensing counts as this is a subscription based product.​"
  • "The pricing and licensing are competitive."
  • "Licensing is by endpoint and amount of retention time (at least ours is). Default retention was one year, but we are able to push the retention further if needed. There's also a provide-your-own-S3 option for longer retention if you don't want to pay for the additional retention years in your Rapid7 agreement."
  • "It is a reasonably priced solution."
  • "It is on a yearly basis. For our own company, for about 250 users, it was 16,000 euros a year."
