Flashpoint Reviews & Product Details

What has been most helpful about Flashpoint is the relative ease of use. I like that I can navigate to the portions that I utilize easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think it could be helpful to have different search functions built into the search bar. For example, if you need to add quotations to a phrase to search that phrase. it would be nice when you click the search function, you can select which type of search you are doing and it prefills with the appropriate things needed for your search.

The platform offers an impressive amount and quality of data and sources. I appreciate the advanced options for filtering data, which are particularly useful for research and setting up alerts. Communication is very clear, and I value that all declarations have real-life backing.

Overall, my experience has been excellent so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the search/filter features and most recently, the AI summary capability. That has really helped me filter out a lot of noise and made certain datasets a bit easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes images accessed from alerts do not load all the way for me, for some reason. Maybe just be a me problem. There is nothing major that I dislike. BUT if I could ADD something, I would love the ability to communicate with the AI feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me, the biggest value Flashpoint brings is that it’s become a trusted source of truth when we’re validating incidents or potential breaches. If we see news or get alerts from other platforms about our business, a vendor, or a third party being involved in a breach, we can quickly verify it in the platform. The ability to check intelligence pulled from dark web forums and other non-public sources is a huge help in confirming whether something is credible. The daily intelligence standups are also a strong point. They help speed up our internal reporting and dissemination with some high profile or key news stories already reviewed and analysed, which saves us a bit of time.

The search functionality can feel a bit inconsistent depending on which section of the platform you’re in. Building alert queries is also a tad clunky and it’s easy to end up with very noisy results if the logic isn’t right. Managing and adjusting alerts can be confusing too, mostly because the way options are accessed has changed since moving from the old version to Ignite and it’s not very intuitive where to find things. That said though, it’s clear FP are working on this and I’ve already noticed improvements based on user feedback, so I expect it’ll get smoother over time. Another thing to note, while the daily intelligence standups are useful, they can feel quite generic at times. For example, you’ll occasionally see a lot of focus on manufacturing related incidents, which aren’t very relevant for financial services. Having those reports tailored a bit more by industry would make them even more valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is very little that I dislike about Flashpoint. Sometimes it feels that when I search I don't get the results I am looking for. It could be because my searches are too broad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its ability to pull data from messaging apps and forums. Then make that data easily searchable and exportable. Flashpoint also has a simple process for adding additional channels or forums that have been identified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
