We performed a comparison between Rapid7 InsightIDR and Sumo Logic Security 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 alerting to drive investigations and remediation has been its most valuable feature."
"It improved my organization by building a security alerting program."
"Great coverage of all systems within our network from endpoint to firewall."
"InsightIDR’s ability to process millions of transactions per day, and to notify me of the most critical ones, is priceless. InsightIDR has the alerts tuned, and has the ability to quickly drill down to determine the threat level."
"I like the tool's user analysis feature."
"The solution is very scalable in terms of the licensing model."
"Very intuitive and easy to set up."
"Integration with threat modeling from the Metasploit and InsightIDR repositories."
"With this tool, we provide access to every developer team the ability to find errors, then they come to us and ask for specific help."
"We can ingest logs and make reports out of them. It is a good tool which can help us monitor any issues."
"We use it to ingest Windows domain controller logs. We use this to monitor if anyone is placed in particular administration groups that potentially shouldn't be. It helps us keep track of people."
"It provides easy visibility. I also like the shareable queries because we share a lot across groups."
"The features I found valuable with the Sumo Logic Security solution are the search option and the ability to customize the search for the information in the logs."
"Sumo Logic Security is a good solution for searching the logs and identifying the issues."
"For many of our services, we use Sumo Logic to track errors and send notifications to our Slack channel, if there are issues. Then, we have our support people monitoring this, and they can react quickly."
"It helps a lot because we can troubleshoot issues pretty easily."
"It takes time for the product's support team to resolve issues, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"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."
"Needs a better ability to customize the check within the console."
"I would like the ability to adjust the threshold of certain existing alerts. Currently the only option is to change the notifications or create my own alert."
"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."
"Currently, it lacks the functionalities provided by Rapid7's User Behavior Analytics (UBA)."
"The ability to tune the collector for custom logs would greatly help."
"Sometimes, it is hard to get the right queries to use. Currently, the tool lacks a pre-made set of queries."
"If you look at some of the other offerings right now that are available in the market, they do offer APM as well as the product they're offering. I believe Sumo Logic is not there yet. So that's something which I would love to see."
"The integration with multiple sources could be better."
"If you want to up your subscription through the AWS Marketplace, it can be difficult. You can't just go back to the AWS Marketplace, and say, "I want a bigger one now." You have to contact the sales team, then they do it on the back-end. This could definitely be improved."
"The API integration in Sumo Logic Security could improve. There are delayed connections or they stop and then automatically start. Having a seamless log collection would be beneficial."
"We would like to have some type of predefined setup for the logs, making the setup easier by default."
"We would like the ability to drill down into a dashboard and get into deeper levels."
"The dashboard has room for improvement, because sometimes it is a difficult to create a specific dashboard or query. This would be a nice place to correct problems."
"Sumo Logic Security is expensive, and its pricing could be improved."
