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.

It helped us be more aware of what our security posture is, but not all of the features work in my environment
I would say CloudPassage is very useful for certain things. If you just want a few modules then focus on what you need and negotiate the price based on the individual module, rather than looking at the whole thing, because I didn't find all the modules very useful. Also, use Splunk in combination with it if you want reporting. I would give CloudPassage at least a seven out of 10. I rate it on the high-end because of the customer support - I've never seen any support that is comparable to that, it's very good, excellent. The support staff actually care, they actually follow up; it's very nice. And CloudPassage really listens to its customers. The product itself is very nice if you're only looking to check off your compliance requirements, but if you're looking for more of dashboarding and things like that, CloudPassage is improving but it's not quite there.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The UI is very good."
"Singularity Cloud's ability to create custom correlation searches and reduce noise is highly valuable."
"The tool identifies issues quickly."
"The Offensive Security Engine, powered by impressive AI/ML capabilities, seamlessly integrates with cloud infrastructure to analyze data and provide optimal security solutions."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers valuable features like runtime notifications. These alerts come to my account, ensuring that if any port or component within my infrastructure is opened or compromised, I am informed immediately. It highlights issues within minutes or even seconds."
"The cloud misconfiguration feature and Offensive Security Engine, as well as their alerting process, are valuable."
"With SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security, it's easy to onboard new accounts."
"Overall, I would rate SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable features of CloudGuard CNAPP are its compliance engine and auto-remediation features."
"We have more visibility than ever before, appreciating the valuable and proactive insight that we receive from the platform."
"Good interface and visibility."
"It provides critical insights that enable the IT team to plan and launch smart investigations when there are security breaches."
"The CDR helps detect anomalous behavior and respond to threats before they become an issue."
"The CloudGuard for Cloud Intelligence tool has several significant features that provide security to our company."
"I value the comfort and the ability to receive proper insights almost hands-off."
"The reporting against compliance is an important feature that helps you comply with policies and standards within your organization."
"Policies are very easy to manage on a day-to-day basis."
"Key features are the Software Vulnerability Assessment and the CSM, which is the configuration check."
 

Cons

"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security can improve by eliminating 100 percent of the false positives."
"They can add more widgets to its dashboard. A centralized dashboard with numerous metrics would improve user understanding."
"After closing an alert in Cloud Native Security, it still shows as unresolved."
"If I had to pick a complaint, it would be the way the hosts are listed in the tool. You have different columns separated by endpoint name, Cloud Account, and Cloud Instances ID. I wish there was something where we could change the endpoint name and not use just the IP address. We would like to have custom names or our own names for the instances. If I had a complaint, that would be it, but so far, it meets all the needs that we have."
"The Kubernetes scanning on the Oracle Cloud needs to be improved. It's on the roadmap. AWS has this capability, but it's unavailable for Oracle Cloud."
"A few YouTube videos could be helpful. There isn't a lot of information out there to look at."
"In some cases, the rules are strictly enforced but do not align with real-world use cases."
"While it is good, I think the solution's console could be improved."
"There are opportunities for improvement that can be addressed through a roadmap."
"Compliance checks on cloud resources against various industry standards and compliance framework templates need to be improved."
"Their service needs improvement."
"Down the road, we would like to see automation. That is probably a feature that most people want. If they can automate patching a vulnerability, it will be much easier."
"We want to be able to customize the solution more in order to meet the needs of our company."
"Sometimes, the solution provides us with false alerts of vulnerabilities that are not present in our cloud environment."
"The support must be more effective."
"Scalability, particularly in workload protection, is an area that needs improvement."
"Anything outside of the software vulnerability management and the CSM, things like the GhostPort, need some improvement. The dashboard is in beta. It looks really good, I wish it would come out of beta."
"In the CSM module the policies are really hard to work with it. It is not very flexible at all. I would suggest that they change that. Right now, the scan is based on the group that the server is in. What happens if the server is in multiple groups?"
"The reports and graphs are unintuitive."
"Of all the advertised functions, I only find two things that really work in my environment, even though I wanted to use all of them. They're not flexible enough to be used."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SentinelOne is relatively cheap. If ten is the most expensive, I would rate it a seven."
"SentinelOne provided competitive pricing compared to other vendors, and we are satisfied with the deal."
"We have an enterprise license. It is affordable. I'm not sure, but I think we pay 150,000 rupees per month."
"PingSafe is not very expensive compared to Prisma Cloud, but it's also not that cheap. However, because of its features, it makes sense to us as a company. It's fairly priced."
"The licensing is easy to understand and implement, with some flexibility to accommodate dynamic environments."
"PingSafe falls somewhere in the middle price range, neither particularly cheap nor expensive."
"It is not that expensive. There are some tools that are double the cost of PingSafe. It is good on the pricing side."
"Singularity Cloud Workload Security's licensing and price were cheaper than the other solutions we looked at."
"I suggest that you pay attention to the product pricing because while there are no tricks, and the licensing model is transparent, the final numbers may surprise you."
"The licensing part still needs some work. The issue that I have is that we do not use all the services in the cloud, but sometimes, CloudGuard identifies them as an asset."
"Right now, we have licenses on 500 machines, and they are not cheap."
"The pricing is extremely competitive."
"CloudGuard is fairly priced."
"Everything in this field is very expensive."
"​They support either annual licensing or hourly. At the time of our last negotiation, it was either one or the other, you could not mix or match. I would have liked to mix/match. ​"
"It is a very straightforward licensing model that is based on the number of assets you are discovering and managing with the solution."
"CloudPassage is a little bit on the expensive side. So my suggestion is that the company lower its price point a wee bit or sell modules, separate them in modules, because I only find two things that are useful to me, yet I pay for four or five modules. It didn't seem like it was a fair deal."
"We also evaluated VMware NSX, but the pricing and features available in a CloudPassage implementation were decisive in deciding to go with CP."
