We performed a comparison between Alert Logic and Darktrace based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The installation and configuration were slick."
"It is a very stable product."
"We receive infrastructure security warnings from it. So, we know what is going on and what needs to be addressed."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"While I still have on-premises appliances, I can remotely monitor everything from the cloud, and Alert Logic's ease-of-access features have helped me streamline my workflow and reduce implementation time."
"Everything is in one dashboard; I'm notified when there's an incident and advised on what steps to take."
"The most valuable aspect of Alert Logic is its technology platform. They have SOCs in the US and Europe, giving them global visibility of the threat landscape. They detect and respond to threats in minutes. Their biggest value is human expertise. You're being attacked by a human, and you cannot respond to it unless you have a human on the other side. They have the human and technological resources to respond."
"It has the ability to install agents. It is pretty straightforward. You can automate the process pretty easily."
"I like the Antigena feature in Darktrace, as it offers immediate response and is helpful."
"It is a stable solution."
"The most valuable feature has been the behavioral analytics that allows us to monitor all the traffic."
"In terms of features, the data or information they collect and unsupervised machine learning are very valuable. Its unsupervised machine learning has reduced our team's effort. Both Darktrace and Vectra work on unsupervised machine learning that learns the behavior or develops a profile on its own, which allows our security team to do some other tasks rather than spending time on Darktrace or Vectra. Because of unsupervised machine learning, its detection capability is quite good. Along with that, if we utilize the integration feature properly, the automated incident response capability of Darktrace is quite useful."
"Its most valuable feature is its ability to identify malicious connected IPs from outside and the attacks that get through to the inside."
"We have found the product to be stable and issue-free."
"I find it very good in the way that they show the past events, including the attack history."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it does not require human intervention to eliminate a threat."
"The setup process was complex."
"As a user involved with the user interface, I believe there is a need to continue improving it based on feedback from our customers."
"Alert Logic needs to expand its SOCs to serve more markets, such as the Middle East and Asia. There should be infrastructure that covers more time zones. The company should also develop an EDR that is natively integrated into their solution. Currently, a client must buy another EDR solution like CrowdStrike or Sophos. I think Alert Logic is developing this. Built-in email security could also be developed and integrated."
"I would like to see it do initial scans and start capturing data, which it will truly analyze, not just be a reporting system saying, "Here is an email. Here is an email. Here is an email.""
"Its menu is not very intuitive. I would like to see the user menu expanded a bit. The user menu is very layered, and because of the layers, you have to go down a path that is not very intuitive."
"They have ideas and email you whatever they find, but they don't have a dedicated security team who will work on an attack or a specific security instance."
"The product needs to mature. We don't want to be bombarded with unnecessary issues and have the real ones slip through."
"I would like more data on the alert payload. It would be good to have the ability to customize the alert payload to add whatever data that we want on there. Right now, it is a bit limited."
"The price point for the product was too high for what our possible use case could be."
"The interface is too mathematical and it should be simplified."
"I believe their network monitoring device licensing module could use some improvement."
"I would like to see more protection in the endpoint. Especially because we have a lot of people using VPNs. If they would improve end point security, it would give more control there."
"Darktrace does not have any capabilities to configure."
"Getting logs from different sources can be a challenge."
"The solution could be easier to use."
"It could build in integrations for some complementary products, but it has an assistant plugin so this is not really a big deal."
