We performed a comparison between IBM Resilient and VMware Carbon Black Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Security Incident Response solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is simple to use and to integrate with IBM QRadar."
"The solution is reliable in our usage."
"It's really simple and has a flexible interface."
"The initial setup of IBM Resilient is not that complex since my company already has a support license that we use internally. In general, the product's deployment phase is not that complex."
"This is a good solution that we recommend for customers."
"Its flexibility is the most valuable."
"The most valuable features of IBM Resilient are its flexibility and customization options for incident response."
"What I like most about IBM Resilient is that it has a complete stack, which means you don't need to use different OEM products because you have all you need under the IBM Resilient umbrella. You don't need to worry much about integrations and components because you're working with tested and proven architecture."
"The most valuable features are its lightweight design, ensuring minimal impact on end-users, and its real-time protection."
"The ability to quickly isolate a system from the network, while still being able to perform some forensics and mitigation work remotely, was of great value to us since we had many mobile and distributed systems."
"The detection response and quarantining are very good features."
"Probably the most valuable feature of CB Response is its ability to isolate a host and take it off the network, so it's not spreading anything. We have two security operations centers around the globe. When an SOC analyst sees something on an endpoint, they can use Carbon Black Response to isolate that host from the customer's environment and prevent any kind of lateral spread."
"The solution does very well as a baseline EDR and provides good process-level management."
"Threat hunting is the most valuable feature of VMware Carbon Black Cloud."
"We are able to remotely isolate exploited endpoints in seconds and perform a live deep dive of any endpoint into its running processes (as necessary) without the need for extra scripts."
"The market information they gather from the community is really good. Their configuration capabilities are good."
"There are shortcomings with IBM Resilient's technical support team that can be considered for improvement in the future."
"The implementation could be a bit simpler."
"The integration could be improved so that it is easy to integrate with other solutions."
"The tool needs to improve its documentation on license scripts."
"Its price needs improvement."
"IBM Resilient could integrate better with my tools."
"The initial setup is complex."
"What could make IBM Resilient better is if IBM increased the number of built-in integrations with different products from other vendors or third-party products."
"The cloud console has a lot of bugs and issues in the analysis part."
"Technical support for the solution should be improved because there is a scarcity of support teams in the Middle East."
"They have different products, but if we wanted to take their protection and their EPR, then we would need to have two agents"
"Setup is incredibly complex and poorly documented. Every time an upgrade was needed we would need to engage Professional Services for troubleshooting help. Certificates and web services proved to be the most significant sticking points. Since the product runs on a Linux platform, perhaps having staff with more Linux experience could have alleviated some difficulty."
"It's not simple."
"The solution can only handle about 500 bans or blocks."
"The support team of Carbon Black CB Response needs improvement. At present, they need a lot of information. Then they give you an answer that they already gave you. You tell them it didn't work, and then they take a long time."
"The biggest issue I encountered was one where old logs were not being overwritten as expected so the system drive kept filling up from time to time. However, support was usually quite responsive and happy to jump on a remote session to take a look at it for us. That log bug has probably been resolved with an update by now."
