Featured Reviews

Andrew W - PeerSpot reviewer
Tells us about vulnerabilities as well as their impact and helps to focus on real issues
Looking at all the different pieces, it has got everything we need. Some of the pieces we do not even use. For example, we do not have Kubernetes Security. We are not running any K8 clusters, so it is good for us. Overall, we find the solution to be fantastic. There can be additional education components. This may not be truly fair to them because of what the product is going for, but it would be great to see additional education for compliance. It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background.
Bart Coddens - PeerSpot reviewer
Evolved cloud security with active monitoring but needs interface consistency
The user interface needs work. Sometimes, it is a transition from the old tool to the new CNAPP Two that I currently have, and remnants of the old environment can still be detected. I require consistency in the user interface to ensure everything is streamlined into the same look and feel. More work is needed in fine-tuning the threat data towards your CSPM and activity logs, aligning them with business intelligence, which requires a cohesive console interface. My assessment of CloudGuard CDRs in intrusion detection and threat hunting capabilities is that it still needs some work. All the threat data that comes in, you need to fine tune it a bit.

Enables seamless local Kubernetes development and quick deployment to the cloud
Rancher Desktop provides support for Kubernetes setup on local machines. It allows us to run Kubernetes as per our requirement, and the desktop application offers a good UI. We use Rancher Desktop for local development, testing APIs locally, and it helps to seamlessly publish to the cloud. This makes it a valuable tool for developers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Our previous product took a lot of man hours to manage. Once we got Singularity Cloud Workload Security, it freed up our time to work on other tasks."
"It saves time, makes your environment more secure, and improves compliance. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security helps with audits, ensuring that you are following best practices for cloud security. You don't need to be an expert to use it and improve your security."
"The most valuable aspect of Singularity Cloud Security is its unified dashboard."
"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is its advanced AI and machine learning capabilities, which allow it to identify and respond to threats in real time."
"I recommend SentinelOne due to its high-security capabilities, which are essential to safeguard data and systems from potential threats."
"With SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, I appreciate the monitoring features and the report with the compliance score."
"SentinelOne's behaviour analytics are valuable because they detect anomalies and malicious behaviour that signature-based solutions might miss."
"The most valuable feature is the notification system, providing real-time alerts and comparisons crucial for maintaining security."
"The most valuable feature is the single dashboard that enables us to manage the entire cloud environment from one place."
"The most valuable features of CloudGuard CNAPP are its compliance engine and auto-remediation features."
"The automatic learning and an AI engine help to find more modern vulnerability problems."
"The new scanning function is a valuable feature that wasn't available until recently."
"CloudGuard's best feature is real-time detection. We can detect incidents and vulnerabilities in our code with one click."
"Checkpoint posture management gives you visibility across your entire cloud infrastructure, so it helps you with management, maintenance, and compliance. With visibility across all these cloud platforms, you can protect against compromised credentials or identity theft."
"The cloud security posture management identify the risks that are the most critical to our business. We can define certain key assets that are your crown jewels. And whenever something hits on these crown jewels, you get a very high score. So you can really fine tune towards protecting your risk based assets in the cloud."
"Assets Management as it provide complete visibility of our workload inkling EC2 instance or Serverless"
"Rancher Desktop provides support for Kubernetes setup on local machines."
"Rancher Desktop provides support for Kubernetes setup on local machines."
"The most valuable features of SUSE Rancher include the user interface and the display features."
 

Cons

"Currently, we would have to export our vulnerability report to an .xlsx file, and review it in an Excel spreadsheet, and then we sort of compile a list from there. It would be cool if there was a way to actually toggle multiple applications for review and then see those file paths on multiple users rather than only one user at a time or only one application at a time."
"The could improve their mean time to detect."
"In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases."
"The Singularity Cloud Security console is experiencing delays in clearing resolved issues, which can take over an hour to be removed from the display."
"To enhance the notification system's efficiency, resolved issues should be promptly removed from the portal."
"The SentinelOne customer support needs improvement, as they are sometimes late in responding, which is critical in a production issue."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers real-time response, there is room for improvement in alert accuracy."
"They need more experienced support personnel."
"Reporting should have more options."
"Automation and advanced threat prevention have room for improvement."
"It should capture more information in metadata including communication detail. Also, Internal IP addresses should not be tracked as this might be having some compliance issues."
"The user interface could be improved. Sometimes, the visibility is not immediately available for the environment. We have the native servers that come with the solutions, but we cannot see them in the Check Point log. Another issue is with the integrated file monitoring. It would make sense to have stuff like file integrity monitoring and malware scanning available within this module because we don't want to integrate another product."
"I am not a technical person, but generically, the user interface can be a little more intuitive. Our staff has trained network security and cloud security professionals, and they get it, but when you are trying to get to the customers to be able to pick it up and maintain it, it can be a bit difficult."
"When rules change, it messes up the remediation. They haven't found a fix for that yet. The remediation rule goes into limbo. It's an architectural design flaw within their end compliance engine—a serious bug."
"Currently, worldwide, there are many companies of all sizes that do not understand the value that their data has, but even with all existing clouds, they also do not understand what the shared responsibility model is. They only assume that by having a cloud, the provider must ensure safety, when the truth is that the providers only secure their sites. Everything we do in the cloud and how we configure it is actually our responsibility."
"No improvements are needed."
"Some initial setup and configuration were required by the admin side for enabling security policies, which were not supported initially."
"Some initial setup and configuration were required by the admin side for enabling security policies, which were not supported initially."
"Additional features for a paid solution should be included, such as more detailed insights, better graphics, and an improved user interface."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PingSafe is less expensive than other options."
"PingSafe falls somewhere in the middle price range, neither particularly cheap nor expensive."
"While I'm slightly out of touch with pricing, I know SentinelOne is much cheaper than other products."
"I understand that SentinelOne is a market leader, but the bill we received was astronomical."
"Their pricing appears to be based simply on the number of accounts we have, which is common for cloud-based products."
"PingSafe is affordable."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is on the costlier side."
"The cost for PingSafe is average when compared to other CSPM tools."
"The licensing and costs are straightforward, as they have a baseline of 100 workloads (number of instances) within one license with no additional nor hidden charges. If you want to have 200 workloads under Dome9, then you need to take out two licenses for that. Also, it does not have any impact on cloud billing, as data is shared using the API call. This is well within the limit of free API calls provided by the cloud provider."
"The license for CloudGuard Posture Management is about $80 a year, and it's based on your cloud footprint, not the number of users. So you could have a million users, and it doesn't matter."
"Licensing and costs are straightforward, as they have a baseline of 100 workloads within one license and no additional charges."
"The pricing is extremely competitive."
"It is difficult to contextualize the pricing because we are used to Indian pricing and licensing."
"The pricing is tremendous and super cheap. It is shockingly cheap for what you get out of it. I am happy with that. I hope that doesn't get reported back and they increase the prices. I love the pricing and the licensing makes sense. It is just assets: The more stuff that you have, the more you pay."
"Its price is very fair."
"Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is always known as a good solution but an expensive one. When you're using Cisco, Check Point, or Palo Alto, you know that you will pay more, but you know that it will work."
