Associate Vice President - IT Security at Inspira Enterprise

The initial setup of the RSA NetWitness Network is fine. The device setup is easy. However, we need professional services for creating dashboards and other aspects.

The initial setup isn't too complex, and deployment can be completed in a day. I would rate the setup experience as four out of five.

The setup is neither easy nor difficult. It's moderate. I'd rate it four out of five in terms of the deployment process. It wasn't challenging, yet had some complications so wasn't completely straightforward.

The initial setup is complex. On a scale from one to five with one being the worst and five being the best, I would rate the initial setup at four.

It took a couple of hours to set up. The deployment and maintenance can be done by one person, such as a technician.

The deployment process is complex. I don't know why, but this solution will suddenly stop working. Logs stop coming. Often, one thing or another stops working. Most of the time, one of my team members is troubleshooting and working with technical support. Log passing is also one of the biggest challenges. Sometimes you don't get the logs, but even when we make the log passes, they don't work. They suddenly stop working. It might just be a problem from my side as well, but the end result is that it is not working as smoothly as it should.

Deployment time just depends on different circumstances. Many times, our men were unable to get to the data center. There were some wiring problems and improper shutdowns. We did have trouble with connecting with other people in our department. It took an unusual amount of time. I think we should have been done in 45 to 60 days, but it took us more than eight or nine months to get it done. The deployment time just depends on the current scenario. Tech support would say, "We don't do this, we don't do that. You have to purchase that service and that service."

The initial setup was relatively straightforward because we only had to provision the SQL server and then run the setup. We deployed in-house with a DBA and the deployment took a day. We have an external maintenance contract.

The initial setup requires a high level of skill, then the setup is good and smooth. If you have the skill, then you will get through it easily.
