We performed a comparison between Darktrace and Trend Micro Deep Discovery 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."The most valuable feature of Darktrace is the AI that detects abnormal network activity."
"One member of staff is enough for deployment and maintenance because Darkforce is AI-driven. It does a lot of things by itself."
"Darktrace is extremely stable."
"It is autonomous. So, it learns. It uses algorithms and AI to learn the common behavioral patterns on the network, and it is able to identify threats based on abnormal patterns."
"The models, triggers, and alerts are customizable."
"A simple, powerful AI solution that just does all the work for you when you turn it on."
"I am impressed with the product's ability to give insights into network traffic."
"The product offers us a very good user interface and we've found the network visibility to be very good so far."
"It is a very good solution. It is very light, and it is quite quick to figure out the problem in your network."
"There is no downtime or server vulnerability with this solution."
"The most valuable features are monitoring for advanced persistent threats, the system runs in a sandbox allowing for effective zero-day exploits management, and the Inspector has a built-in sandbox."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery is its complete end-to-end visibility of threats."
"Generally speaking, it just gives us a broad understanding of exactly what kind of threats occur. The submission point, analyzing point, and virtualization are within the environment that it supports. It helped us to improve our security levels and protect our internal network from any threats outside."
"One of the most valuable features is the performance, since, so far, we have not faced any issues with Deep Discovery."
"Initial setup is easy. It can be done by yourself."
"I like the sales operations testing. and support."
"The dashboard and reporting for this solution could be improved as it is currently complex. The GUI for this solution could also be improved."
"It is expensive, but everything else has been great so far."
"The pricing model is a little too high and could be more flexible."
"One thing that I would like to look at going forward is to have a fully automated network infrastructure that is monitored automatically real-time, and that gives me this kind of capability where I would be able to look at my network at any given time and see the state of my network. With Darktrace, at the moment, I have to almost put in a date and tell them that want you to give me data from this date to this date. I don't want that. I want a fast solution in which it doesn't matter when I log into the application. Whenever I log in, I must be able to see my network and run a report. In other words, if I go in now and I say, "Give me a full report of what happened today, it must be able to give me that. It mustn't just be limited to a seven-day period, for argument's sake. It must be able to give me real-time and day-to-day tracking of what has happened within my network."
"Darktrace could expand into EDR (endpoint detection and response) and combine it with its network detection."
"It should be easier to access the Darktrace portal and its documentation. Only the customer can access their portal and support. It could be cheaper."
"Darktrace is a closed technology, meaning we know very little about how it works, including the architecture, which is significant. As a result, when we implement the system and find we're getting many false positives, we have minimal insight into why it's happening and what we can do to fix it. We don't know how the solution is configured, the criteria for threats to be determined, or the product's inner workings. We understand that they have to ensure privacy and their copyright, but we want to see some documentation or public research into the security Darktrace provides."
"They just need to work on their price. In terms of features, we are trying to understand all the features that we have. We're still exploring everything that we have so that we can fully utilize it. At this point in time, it is not about the features. It is more about utilization. We're just trying to utilize everything to full capacity."
"The stability of the solution could be improved. It should be 100% stable, but it's not there right now."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very expensive solution, making it very hard to sell."
"The scalability is sometimes limited."
"Scalability becomes an issue when managing a higher number of customers."
"The solution needs to be able to integrate better with third-party infrastructure."
"The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only."
"Some of the end users may not be technically proficient, so they occasionally face problems due to a lack of knowledge."
"I would like to see them create a rule where It could integrate with the network and start mitigating with auto-detection."
