Good technical support but it is complex to use and resource-heavy

- "The documentation could be improved."
What other advice do I have?

- "The most valuable feature is the searching capability and real-time operational use."
- "Some of the cloud apps need improvement."
What other advice do I have?
Like any complex enterprise CM tool, you have to have a strong support organization. People who are good at understanding Linux operating systems. You also need a strong technical support team in-house. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.Get our free report covering Splunk, Darktrace, IBM, and other competitors of Rapid7 InsightIDR.
