Darktrace Reviews

Once installed, it starts picking up and learning the network very well because it's got a powerful AI integrated into it.

The user interface is very intuitive.

The Dynamic Threat Dashboard is very nice, as it lists all of your threats and rates them, and then you can choose whether to investigate further.

This solution has some good features for customization in terms of how you're tagging your network, which basically makes it easier to identify what is actually happening. You can see where the traffic is going, where it is coming from, and that sort of thing.

Darktrace has quite a few inbuilt features such as its own packet analysis module, which is an offshoot of Wireshark.

This solution has some powerful APIs, although we do not use that functionality at the moment.

This is quite an expensive product so the pricing is something that can be improved.

I have been using Darktrace for between two and three years.

We've seen no major problems between the master and slave devices in our architecture.

Darktrace is definitely scalable. We started off with a single device monitoring a single site and we progressively added more sites with different devices in a master/slave architecture. The more we've added, we've had to re-think a little bit, but overall the scalability is excellent.

We have ten security analysts who are using this solution.

The Darktrace technical support is very good.

We started off with Darktrace. It was based on a decision from somebody in the business who had previously used it.

Personally, I have used a few other solutions and with respect to the interface, you probably couldn't get more intuitive than Darktrace.

Darktrace is very easy to set up. Even our basic technical people are able to do it. It's almost like plug and play. There is some basic configuration to do, but it's nothing major.

I would say that most technical people can do the majority of the setup.

We were granted access to all of the documentation and information from Darktrace, so we did the implementation ourselves. There may have been one or two areas that we had to go back to Darktrace directly to get clarification on, but there was no third-party partner or reseller involved.

We're very pleased with Darktrace so it is a bit difficult to pinpoint areas for improvement. It covers all of our needs and from what I can see, it does the basics very well. There are many advanced features, also.

This is a solution that I definitely recommend. It offers a proof of value rather than a proof of concept, where they run the tool in your network, let it learn and then catch any vulnerabilities. Then you will actually see the value of the solution, either potentially blocking any exploitive threats or not, but its a really good thing to go through. To do this, I think that you have to go through an actual partner unless you're in a location where Darktrace has a physical office. In any event, I strongly recommend going through the proof of value to see if you like it. If there is a charge then it is definitely worth it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

Our primary use case is for monitoring traffic for unusual behaviors.

I find the complete portfolio to be excellent.

I would like to see some additional enhancements and the price adjusted because it is expensive.

I have been working with Darktrace for the past six months.

It is scalable and we have ten users currently using the system. We do have plans to increase the usage.

The setup is straightforward and not complex at all.

The deployment took us about a week and a half to implement. We did not use a third party to implement but it is available.

The return on investment is evident when it comes to security incidents.

The pricing is subscription-based and it is high.

I would rate Darktrace an eight on a scale of one to ten.

Darktrace is deployed on our LAN, inside the network. No site, no internet, it's just for monitoring the LAN, local access network. It helps us to find a lot of threats inside the network. We are very happy with the solution. You don't need to have a lot of analysts with Darktrace who are making or following the incident. This solution helps you to send the notification and avoid threats.

The main valuable feature is that we don't need a lot of analysts. With few analysts, we have all the network monitored, 24/7.

Firstly, the integration should be improved. 

In terms of what additional features I would like included in the next release of Darktrace, 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.

We have been using Darktrace for three years.

In terms of stability, Darktrace is an excellent product.

Darktrace's scalability is very good. We have about 1,200 users on it currently.

Their technical support is excellent.

We have more than an SOC, a security operation center, so we switched to Darktrace because they use artificial intelligence and they are more sophisticated in preventing threats.

The initial setup is straight forward. Deployment took one day.

We implemented with a consultant. It required two people.

Our ROI as a result of Darktrace is excellent. The return of the cost of the solution for preventing threats is very good.

Darktrace is expensive, but its results are invaluable.

Because of all it does, Darktrace is a very good solution, and it doesn't take a lot of time to implement and to get results. You can learn the behavior of the network and take actions, not based in signatures. I think this is very, very good.

On a scale of one to ten, I would give Darktrace a nine.

Our primary use case of this solution is to monitor lateral traffic.

The solution helped us to find a few anomalies.

Darktrace does not have any capabilities to configure. So I would like to see supervised machines and capabilities in the next version.

Darktrace is extremely stable.

We are only four users on Darktrace currently, and I believe it is scalable.

I am satisfied with the technical support we received. 

The initial setup was very straightforward because, in fact, there was nothing to configure. You just plug in the box and search for kickbacks. Deployment took about a day and it was done by one of Darktrace's consultants.

I worked on another solution before but we decided to test out Darktrace so that we could compare them.

Darktrace is a good product and it can be implemented on premises. Someone who wants to take care of the lateral movement and configure it, will love what it offers. I rate this solution a seven out of ten. I would like to see supervised machine running in the future.

We are using it for proof of concept purposes. We are using it to monitor all traffic on our network, and it is analyzing the traffic. We have 5,000 users. We are using the latest version.

It is very stable and easy to use.

Its threat analyzer could be better. It should also have agents. They should improve this product by installing agents for the machine to get more visibility. Currently, they are monitoring only the network. They should also monitor the agents from inside.

It should also have a better pricing plan because it is an expensive product.

I have been using this solution for a few weeks. 

It is very stable.

Currently, we are working with their pre-sales and technical teams. For POC, there is a dedicated team for us to ask and check what we want, and they have been good. I have not yet contacted their support. When we purchase the solution, we will be directly connected with the support team.

We were using Trend Micro's Deep Discovery Inspector.

It was done in less than half an hour.

We are a system integrator. For its deployment, one cybersecurity specialist would be enough.

It is a very expensive product.

I am comparing Darktrace with other products like Stealthwatch and Vectra, but for now, I find Darktrace as good.

We have been using it for a few weeks. As of now, we plan to keep using it. I would recommend this solution for big companies.

I would rate Darktrace a seven out of ten.

We are using this solution for both the detection and elimination of attacks.

The most valuable feature of this solution is that it does not require human intervention to eliminate a threat. It blocks everything automatically.

The user interface and the configuration are a bit complex and should be improved or simplified. 

It's user-friendly, but it could be easier.

The pricing could be better and the scalability should be simplified for the customers.

The integration could be better, as it's not that interactive. They could make it more interactive for the customer's daily use.

I have been using Darktrace for three years.

It's a very stable solution. We are very satisfied with stability.

It's a scalable solution, but it's not very easy to scale. When using a detection environment, it's not very easy for the customer.

Technical support is very good. They are excellent.

Previously, we had completed some trials with IronNet.

The initial setup is straightforward.

It could be cheaper.

When it comes to large installations, it can be expensive, but for small accounts it's fine.

We are resellers and integrators of Darktrace.

I would rate Darktrace a nine out of ten.

• Security  
• Network visibility  
• Breach detection in a VMware environment of about 25 VMs.             

• Developed breach detection and security threats
• GDPR   
• Privacy compliance      
• ISO 27001 compliance. 

DT console and alerting system allow getting detailed information about the behavior of users and malicious external or internal threats.

Block attack capabilities or integration with other SIEM solutions such as IBM QRadar.             

The NDR is good in their solution and they have NTG for email. They have multiple solutions, but for me, I was focusing on one solution, in the NDR section.

I think there is some MSSP missing. The market as a whole needs to enhance this area. Some additional integration would be helpful. They need to focus on having additional tools based on how competitive the market currently is.

I have been working with Darktrace for the past six months.

I find the solution to be stable. I faced one issue and I think it is good after resolving that issue.

I think it is scalable like Vectra.

I have not used technical support for Darktrace.

They are too expensive compared with other vendors.

When considering Darktrace you need to have a plan and decide if it is something you really need as an organization. I would rate Darktrace an eight out of ten.
