Find out in this report how the two Database Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It has automated a bunch of manual tasks, giving us insights into activities that we would not otherwise be able to capture."
"Setting up Guardium was easy and straightforward."
"Accelerators is one of the big functions they have out there. It gives you canned reports that you don't have to make yourself, they're out there by being part of the patch. You just have to fill your information in to some of the already built groups, for your environment, and it automates a lot of that. That has definitely helped improve things."
"From the perspective of analysis and prevention, this product is pretty accurate."
"We have integrated IBM Guardium with IBM Watson Curator. They access Curator to identify and correlate other actions the user is doing to determine if this is a legitimate action or not."
"The product has proven to be flexible"
"The vulnerability assessment is a valuable feature."
"The ability to collect the data without database administers being able to modify it."
"The product is stable."
"The most valuable feature of Protegrity Data Security is the reduction of information being exposed."
"Its technical support team is helpful."
"The solution’s pricing is moderate."
"Overall testing and quality need improvement. It is fairly buggy at times, so it feels like it could use additional staff on the product, testing and trying it out."
"The ability for Central Managers to talk to one another could be improved. I have 26 Central Managers and 26 silos which are independent."
"We have had some issues with patches breaking things unexpectedly in our environments."
"Sometimes the connectors to the databases need to be manually updated and we have to configure them again, which is something that should be improved."
"I would like to see a lot of additional reporting and analytics features. They have basic outlier detection, but I would love to see that go further, and model it after analytics tools like Splunk."
"The one thing that I would like to see improved, but I don't think it's going to be in the next release, is its reporting capabilities. I think that's been offloaded to another third-party product that I think IBM actually endorses for that."
"It would be helpful, and convenient to improve the Chat support."
"Needs nore cloud support."
"Protegrity Data Security could improve by having more integration."
"Protegrity is using a different OS which has some bugs. Sometimes it's causing an initialization error."
"The solution's UI could be better."
