"Does not address the fixes we were looking for"

3/5

What do you like best about Flashpoint?

1. Search results typically load faster than they did in FP tools.

2. Actor profiles are very helpful

3. RFI portal is helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flashpoint?

1. We have been involved with Beta testing for months and very key features in fp.tools that we have said we need to see in Ignite are not being integrated (most notably a quick look timeline for search results)

2. We are still getting inconsistencies in results across both platforms

3. Loading failures are still occuring

4. Ignite AI is not useful for the granulatity of research that our analysts do - a lot of the actors we focus on are not the very common ones covered in intelligence products.

5. We understand that Flashpoint is leaning more heavily on the malware and cyber threats focus, but it seems as though it's coming at the expense of the traditional dark web monitoring offierings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5

What do you like best about Flashpoint?

Flashpoint offered a comprehensive list of all the features we needed, including: dark web monitoring, executive and domain protection, threat intelligence feeds, and 3rd party vendor monitoring. Flashpoint was also able to integration with many of our other tools, all while staying within our budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flashpoint?

There is a bit of a learning curve when you first start going through the data and building out collections to give you actionable information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Game-Changer in Our Dark Web Monitoring Strategy"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Flashpoint?

Flashpoint excels in seamlessly integrating data from surface, deep, and dark web sources, offering an ideal solution for initiating your company's intelligence program. It effectively narrows down pertinent information, simplifying the process of taking actionable steps based on your findings. User-friendly and efficient, it streamlines intelligence gathering and analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flashpoint?

While Flashpoint's use of boolean logic can initially present a learning curve, they offer comprehensive resources that enable quick and effective acclimation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flashpoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

Flashpoint has been instrumental in identifying threat actors targeting our business. By analyzing discussions on Flashpoint, we've uncovered various methods and tactics they use. Without this tool, we would spend countless hours not only in manual review but also in locating and accessing the necessary sources. Flashpoint significantly streamlines this process.

"The Ignite platform is a sleek interface that is easy to use"

4/5

What do you like best about Flashpoint?

The deduplication functionality and the cleaner interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flashpoint?

It's slow to load when scrolling through a thread. The search functionality can also be somewhat unreliable. In particular, we need to have a reliable way of identifying all posts from a unique user on a platform (e.g. User ID on Telegram). This doesn't appear to exist for non-Telegram forums. In FP Tools we could use User FPIDs for that purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
