One of the best security solutions I ever used!

In security, to have a product which is so easy to use, not too expensive and to get all the information you ever wanted, I always thought that this doesn't exist, until our company didn't started to work with Netwrix.

Pros

The comprehensive auditing capabilities and real-time alerting system were the aspects I liked most about Netwrix Auditor. Additionally, the user-friendly interface and customizable reports were highly appreciated. The software's support for compliance requirements and easy deployment/integration were also significant advantages. Lastly, the knowledgeable customer support provided by Netwrix was another positive aspect that stood out to me.

Cons

Although Netwrix Auditor offers many valuable features, I found the initial setup process to be somewhat challenging. However, once I overcame that hurdle, the overall experience was positive.

Alternatives Considered

Spirion and ManageEngine Endpoint Central

Reasons for Switching to Netwrix Auditor

I chose Netwrix Auditor over alternative products primarily because of its comprehensive auditing capabilities, real-time alerting system, and user-friendly interface. The software offered a robust solution that aligned well with my organization's needs.

Chief Information Officer

Used it for going on 5 years on an on-premise VM, works extremely well, low maintenance and the search functionality is much better than other vendors I've used in the past. It would be nice if it had functionality like AI to look for behavioral anomalies.

Pros

Ease of use and it was recommended to me by other Bankers at local conferences.

Cons

Not available in a Linux appliance, would be nice if Netwrix come on a harden Linux appliance instead of running in Microsoft Windows/SQL.

Alternatives Considered

AlienVault OSSIM

Reasons for Choosing Netwrix Auditor

Netwrix was a much better product that had better offerings and easier to upgrade/manage.

Reasons for Switching to Netwrix Auditor

Better pricing with Netwrix over AlienVault, it was SO very expensive.

Netwrix does what we need

Pros

Netwrix Auditor does what we need. The cost of the product is much less than the competition and that's a plus! The alerting is helpful, and the support we receive is efficient and great!

Cons

In my opinion, I feel like the app could be better on how the reports come up and how quickly the results show. As much as the interface is much more user friendly that other competitors, it can be a little confusing when trying to search and pull reports/activity records.

A great force-multiplier for your IT Org!

10/10, would use it again! The product is fantastic, and the support is excellent.

Pros

Netwrix is a great force-multiplier for our organization, allowing a small team to monitor an entire infrastructure with ease.

Cons

Initial implementation can be complex, but once it's working it's a set-it-and-forget-it solution. Support is great, however!

Great Product for Capturing Logs

Pros

The simple, easy to read log, alert, subscription, and monitoring alerts. Very simple to send by emails.

Cons

I like least the lack of being a SIEM because the collected log information is very simple compared to other log software.

Netwrix continues to be a justified investment to our network security.

Pros

Netwrix provides a simple platform and ease of use.

Comprehensive Review of Netwrix Auditor

My overall experience with Netwrix Auditor has been positive, mainly due to its robust auditing tools and reliable security features. However, the complexity of the software necessitated a longer-than-expected period of adaptation.

Pros

The best aspect of Netwrix Auditor is its detailed auditing capabilities. The platform provides deep visibility into user activities and system changes, which is invaluable for IT security and compliance. Its real-time alerts and detailed reports make monitoring network environments much easier.

Cons

The least appealing feature of Netwrix Auditor is its complexity and steep learning curve. New users may find the interface and multitude of features overwhelming, which can complicate the initial setup and daily operations.

The Right Tool

I have had a positive experience with Netwrix Auditor. It may not have all the extras of other products, but it is a great value for the price and gives most sysadmins exactly what they need.

Pros

The simplicity of using it and how it doesn't require a lot of setup and configuration.

Cons

The query's do take a little knowledge of possible options to get the best, most concise results.

Powerful auditing but lacks modernization

Overall positive but we will not renew. The product needs a major overhaul to keep up

Pros

Tons of reports out of the box. Easy to install and deploy the agent. Support was great. Auditing was easy to pull back old data

Cons

No web interface, it requires a thick client to be installed. Limited RBAC. The whole interface needs updating

Netwrix Auditor Review

Overall, I'm satisfied with the product. It does what it needs to do in an orderly fashion.

Pros

I like the fact that it does all the Auditing we need within our capacity of needing it. The password manager is super easy to use and set up and it does it perfectly.

Cons

When trying to configure audit reports, we can't deselect lockouts. So, if an account is locked out, and we have a weekly report, I will get about 25 pages of non-useful information such as user lockouts.

Satisfied Customer

We purchased Netwrix for a view of files/data that may contain PII, HIPPA or any other vulnerable information. Since then, I've used it more for auditing file/folder access and 'who deleted what when'

Pros

The application was very easy to setup. Support was great in assisting with getting us up and running.

Cons

Pricing model: too many features need to be purchased additionally
