We performed a comparison between Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP, Cisco Secure Network Analytics, and Cisco Sourcefire SNORT based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."I can take proactive actions based on an alert without having to interact with the platform directly."
"Auto remediation is a very effective feature that helps ensure less manual intervention."
"The way they offer container security is a big highlight that I have noticed. The solution is also agentless, so the scanning, runtime, really everything is offered directly by CloudGuard."
"This platform has allowed us to collect data from multiple sources, centralizing everything under a single source."
"The feature that I value the most about Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP is the possibility of checking compliance with different standards. This compliance check can be performed for each subscription or service that we have on all the different cloud providers that we use."
"The posture management and remediation features are the most valuable. We use GSL Builder to build custom rules in alignment with our organization's policies. CloudGuard has canned rules using multiple standard frameworks, but we also have additional rules."
"It saves time because I can look across the organization. Instead of checking 50 different accounts atomically and spending 15 minutes investigating each, I can spend 15 minutes exploring all 50 accounts. It allows me to quickly look across the org for similar problems when one comes up. That's a huge time saver."
"The dashboard is intuitive. You know if you're compliant or not, and then it gives you a remediation plan."
"The most valuable feature is anomaly detection, where it finds things that are not allowed internally."
"I value the feature which enables me to detect devices talking to suspect IPs."
"The most valuable feature is NetFlow. The beginning of any security investigation starts with NetFlow data."
"It's easy to set up. The deployment takes one or two days. You need to collect the data from a device and then direct it to the portal."
"The most valuable part is that Stealthwatch is part of a portfolio of security devices from Cisco. Cisco literally can touch every single end point, every single ingress and egress point in the network. Nobody else has that."
"Most valuable features are the network maps and server and network response time."
"The solution reduces the amount of time it takes to detect and remediate threats."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution can be integrated with some network electors like Cisco Stealthwatch, Cisco ISE, and Active Directory to provide the client with authentication certificates."
"Cisco Sourcefire SNORT is easy to configure and the reporting is great. It's also very user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is the visibility that we have across the virtual environment."
"The solution is rather easy to use."
"The most valuable features of Cisco Sourcefire SNORT are the dashboard for monitoring events."
"Cisco technical support is unbeatable. It offers a premium service every time."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to automatically learn the traffic in our environment, and change the merit recommendations based on that."
"The costs are high."
"You do need to pay extra in order to get better support."
"The integration process could be enhanced by enabling integration at the organizational level rather than requiring the manual setup of individual accounts."
"Addressing the large amount of compliance information and benchmarks we need to observe, the tools are becoming our goto dashboards."
"Scalability, particularly in workload protection, is an area that needs improvement."
"I would like to see improvements in the vulnerability assessments in terms of how the solution discovers vulnerabilities or compromised workloads. Also, customizable reports would be nice."
"Reporting should have more options."
"Reporting should have more options."
"The customizability of the UI should improve."
"The initial setup is complex, as there is a lot to configure."
"We've had problems with element licensing costs so scalability is a concern."
"Cisco Stealthwatch needs more integration with device discovery. We have to do a lot of hard work to figure out what things are. Better service integration is required."
"We had some trouble with the installation as we migrated from our previous solution."
"They should include Citrix VDIs in the next release."
"It's a good solid solution but integration with Network Access Control products with Cisco ISE would be good."
"We haven't seen ROI."
"There are problems setting up VPNs for some regions."
"The solution's approach to managing traffic blocking is confusing and impractical."
"With the next release, I would like to see some PBR, so that you can do the configuration with the features."
"The implementation could be a bit easier."
"If the price is brought down then everybody will be happy."
"Performance needs improvement."
"The initial setup is a little difficult compared to other products in the market. It depends on the environment. If we are doing any migration, it might take months in a brown-field environment."
"I would like to have analytics included in the suite."
