We performed a comparison between Darktrace and IBM Security Network IPS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Intrusion Detection and Prevention Software (IDPS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We allow customers to access our Wi-Fi as guests, and some of them were going to restricted sites. Darktrace showed us what they were doing so we could block them."
"I like the Antigena feature in Darktrace, as it offers immediate response and is helpful."
"I find it very good in the way that they show the past events, including the attack history."
"We are able to detect a lot of things, actually, and see what is happening in our network."
"The most valuable feature has been the behavioral analytics that allows us to monitor all the traffic."
"Technical support is helpful and responsive."
"The most valuable feature is the alerts. The alerts are meaningful. The event rolls up into meaningful and actionable alerts rather than just being noise."
"The most valuable feature is that it works autonomously."
"The most valuable feature is its simplicity."
"The initial setup is simple."
"Darktrace does not have any capabilities to configure."
"Darkforce could be improved in the range of the interface; how to interact with the actions it's taking or not taking."
"Although we haven't detected any network threats since implementing Darktrace, we are unsure of its efficacy. It would be beneficial if the solution could offer additional details to the user regarding any potential or prevented threats. Additionally, there could be better search tools and integration."
"I was under impression that Darktrace's automatic blocking would be an out-of-the-box feature, but we had to integrate it with our firewall to get it to block automatically. The salesperson should be upfront and explain that you need to integrate it with your network. I would also like to see more reporting on risk. Banks in my region want to see at a glance the risk level of various assets."
"This is quite an expensive product so the pricing is something that can be improved."
"The solution can improve the reporting."
"Darktrace could improve its features, such as monitoring and detecting ransomware."
"Darktrace could expand into EDR (endpoint detection and response) and combine it with its network detection."
"I'd like to see more integration with other tools and technologies."
"In the future, I would like to see a hybrid option so that we can work both on-premises and in the cloud."
