Flashpoint Reviews & Product Details

customer support team is very helpful and reactive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

not too many downsides, interface main page could be more intuitive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Echosec / Beacon system is the most intuitive and user-friendly OSINT tool I've used for Social Media. The results render quickly and the layout and operability are fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My only regret about the system, is that I didn't take advantage of the product earlier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Both Beacon & Echosec have a clean, user-friendly UI with an astonishing amount of data to sift through. Typically data like this can be mundane to sift through, but this tool allows you to narrow down searches to make the web not so wide while providing an aesthetically pleasing UI

Having a tool that not only has a compilation of in depth breach data but also provides accurate Darkweb posts has been critical to my work. It allows you to search Darkweb content without having to actually go to the DW or view illicit content - if you do Darkweb work and don't have to view images, this tool can be crucial for your line of work! If you DO have to actually go to the DW to view the content, well, Beacon makes it easy for you! It provides data broken down from each post - the URLs, dates when it was posted, authors, potential crypto addresses, etc.

The Echosec side of things has shown me whole new avenues to research. Even though most have geolocation turned off nowadays, Echosec still provides actionable data that may not display when searching on Google.

Both of these have an export feature that makes it easy to compile everything into a categorized file.

Aside from the tool, the staff itself is genuinely kind and supportive of their clients. They seek feedback and work hard to try to make all requests possible. If something may not be doable for them, they will be upfront and seek new solutions for you.

Whether you are an investigator, military, LEO of some kind...this tool is a necessity to maximize investigations! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing really! Any time I have had an "issue" it was almost instantly resolved or I had someone reach out to seek a solution for me.

The only suggestion I'd have (which is already being worked on) is exporting all posts at once. I wouldn't classify that as a dislike though - it is great :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Echosec allows us to keep an eye on all threats and chatter related to our clients, both on social media and the Dark Web, all in one platform. The new Risk Portal actually makes it possible to keep a closer eye on any Dark Web related content as you can set up alerts in the platform when reviewing content in the social media section. If something is concerning, you can always navigate to Beacon to take a deeper dive.

That being said, it is also important to mention the wonderful customer success team that is always available to answer any questions or concerns we may have about the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Echosec does not have anything that we don't like. If anything, we wish we could use Echosec for all our tasks. Unfortunately, the only thing it can't do is write the reports for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Through Beacon, we can identify threats quickly and enable efficient issues management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As this is a relatively new offering, there it does experience some growing pains. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the search ease of use and response time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The active search when you jump from the location to the keyword search. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The site reaches so many location-enabled platforms making the results extremely useful. The site is also very user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one thing that would make it better is expanding the username / author search to more platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have worked with Echosec for several years now, using each tool they have available, and they have always been extremely helpful in onboarding and keeping us up to date with any new features that have been added to their platform. They are always readily available while taking into consideration any specific features we have requested to make our experience on the platform more effective.

Very little, but when we have questions or comments related to missing data and such, they can always accommodate our requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to understand interface allowing analysts to hop right in with minimal issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Data sources take time to integrate, but that's the nature of the game. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Echosec has crafted a product that doubles the efforts of my analysts. We can ingest incredible amounts of data in focused and specific pieces whether in social media, or their Beacon tool, dark web. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not so much on the platform, but as the API's for platforms keep changing, it is hard to keep up with how this effects the resources like Echosec. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
