cybersecurity architect

In general, it is an excellent tool for monitoring within IT, adding to our zero trust concepts, including supervision of rdp connections, monitoring of sql instructions in critical databases and access and use of user files

Information Security Engineer

We used to use it for file servers, but since we've retired so many we only use it for AD changes, GPO changes and account auth events.

CISO

What they need to work most is the dashboard customization

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.

Setting up permissions for file servers manually because our team didn't feel comfortable allowing Auditor setting perms automatically.

IT Security Engineer

Using it led to deeper dives into certain aspects of our domain that needed extra security features or tightened control.

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

IT Infrastructure Engineer

The ability to audit and management multiple assets in the same umbrella.

sysadmin

New users may find the interface and multitude of features overwhelming, which can complicate the initial setup and daily operations.

It Manager

Logs on files and devices usage making us able to literal Audit certain issues

At the beginning you have to understand its way of use to be able to create WHO, WHEN, WHERE and ACCESS searches.

IT Security Analyst

Some logon reports can be difficult to comprehend especially when doing an ad hoc report of a logon activity of an account.

Dir of IT

Integration with the Microsoft Active Directory and other products like IIS, SQL Server.

Its real-time alerts and detailed reports make monitoring network environments much easier.

Security Analyst

The biggest issue I have is it shows available reports from non-licensed Netwrix applications.

Director of IT

The slowness of the system, constant issues with configuration and unsure if it is 100% set up correctly.  

The predefined reports that are provided and the simplistic dashboard.

IT manager

Easy to setup. Once it is setup and the notifications and reports are created (most of which are already there, just needed customizing) its pretty much set and forget it.

tech

Collects critical events, live notifications

It would be nice if it had functionality like AI to look for behavioral anomalies.

NOG Manager

It catches and makes me aware of many things I don't have the manpower to catch on my own.

IT Manager

You are not able to tell who delete a file.

Senior cyber security

The complexity it takes to setup the software as there are so many options/feature.

you can see who made changes to file or removed or added them

Information Security Specialist

It is not as straight forward to setup as other options, data is not as straight forward.

Technical Suport Analyst

Overall, it is a great tool for my agency to monitor our AD health environment.

Netwrix Auditor has been an invaluable tool in our cybersecurity efforts.

Deputy Director

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

Some of the UI is a little to complex to navigate.

System Administrator

I like the fact that it does all the Auditing we need within our capacity of needing it.

The menus could be a little less complicated to navigate but still not bad

Systems Administrator

It can be cumbersome to create a new report in my opinion.

Network Engineer

The Reports we get every day for our monitoring plans

Senior System Administrator

had to move from azure to onprem to give more resources

Net admin

Reporting features and functions of the reports

IT Service Manager

Bit of a complicated setup in that it’s not intuitive in some areas.

Ran out of disk space and memory and slow

AD Administrator

It is not optimized in most cases you are limited.

Linux Server Admin

Cost: Can be expensive for smaller organizations.

The user interface feels old but is functional.

I would see some dashboards with relevant information at glance

The whole product does very well in my auditing needs.

The reporting configuration was easy and the documents were well written.

Using Netwrix Auditor is good overall, and I can recommend it to be a valuable product that would save you much time in monitoring your server, treats, alerts and reports.
