Find out what your peers are saying about Darktrace, Vectra AI, Auvik and others in Network Traffic Analysis (NTA)."It has been pretty stable since we deployed it, and everything seems to be working fine."
"The most valuable feature is anomaly detection, where it finds things that are not allowed internally."
"It is a good application, providing for real-time monitoring of the organization of data. It can basically identify points of peak traffic where possible issues are being caused."
"It has definitely helped us improve our mean time to resolution on network issues."
"It works efficiently for encrypted traffic analysis."
"The fact that it can identify down to an IP address of a system that is causing problems, or potentially causing problems, is very valuable."
"This product alleviates the day-to-day headaches for us, in regards to metrics."
"We find that Stealthwatch can detect the unseen."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use and the full reach of services."
"Complexity on integration is not so straightforward and you really need an expert to help build it out."
"If there was one improvement I’d suggest it would be that it detect traffic through an intranet. The product requires that traffic flow through a managed network device. The product is designed mostly for enterprise environments and not smaller environments or businesses."
"Initially, I felt Cisco Secure Network Analytics lacked integration with Splunk."
"The ability to be natively integrated into Port Aggregator would be beneficial because it would reduce just one more component that's needed in order to have that type of view."
"We need to be able to filter out internal IPs as non-threats."
"There could be better integration on the programming side, which uses Python. StealthWatch could provide a template for Python to manage the switches. For example, it would be nice if StealthWatch bounced a port automatically it detected something anomalous."
"The configuration of the solution was quite complex."
"The reporting of day-to-day metrics still has room for improvement."
"I would like to see it integrate with third-party systems."
