Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."Cloud security posture management is the feature we've been using the longest."
"Its monitoring and alerts are triggered by a failure or non-compliance with policies. It helps us to be able to act effectively and quickly."
"It offers security insights and recommendations to assist organizations in acting and remediating issues swiftly."
"Compliance is becoming an important tool for us as well."
"The administration portal panel is very intuitive."
"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 ability to integrate it with Microsoft Azure Sentinel allows us to validate the logs in an even more complex and meaningful way."
"The rulesets and the findings are valuable. The actual core functionality of it and the efficacy of events are great."
"The solution improved the consistency of our security controls and the BCP. There has been a 20 percent reduction in TCO. Prisma Access also enabled us to deliver better applications by centralizing security management."
"The most valuable feature is the zero-trust part of this solution."
"This solution provides a DLP on the cloud and very few people have a scanning device for data at rest."
"We're now able to go after contracts that require a Zero Trust solution and Prisma's other technology solutions."
"We have an application called ADEM that helps us troubleshoot network-related issues. It helps us to isolate an issue whether it is on the ISP level, endpoint level, or system access level."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"Its frontend is user-friendly. It is easy to use for us."
"Its hands-off security and the fact that we don't have to maintain it are the most valuable features."
"CloudGuard could be more customizable. It has built-in standards for things like GDPR compliance. But depending on your business lane, you might want to build your own controls based on your own standards."
"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."
"Dome9 should also support deployments that are on-premises and in a hybrid cloud."
"The tool should incorporate more use cases like improving security scores. It should also improve documentation."
"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 Check Point solution is somewhat expensive."
"In general, for the product to be successful, they need to improve security, and configuration detection."
"We're looking for a solution that can incorporate legacy infrastructure for some of our business needs."
"There can be some latency issues with the solution that should be improved."
"It's not really Prisma's fault, but when you try to create exceptions you don't really have those abilities. You cannot say, on the management platform, "Hey, for these users I want to create these exceptions." That is one thing that I have gotten some complaints about, and we have faced some challenges there."
"I would like to see support for custom applications."
"Better integration with the MDM solution would be useful."
"While Palo Alto has understood the essence of building capabilities around cloud technology and have come up with a CASB offering, that is a very new product. There are other companies that have better offerings for understanding cloud applications and have more graceful controls. That's something that Palo Alto needs to work on."
"I would like to see better pricing and an easier logging process. Also, if there was a way to log a global log, everything could go onto the system. It would be better if there was a third log, otherwise one would have to do everything manually."
"When we deploy firewall rules via Panorama, we find it's a little bit slow. We have a global environment and might have 100 gateways or VPNs in the cloud. When we deploy something, it tries to deploy it one-by-one, and that can be slow."
"It's not very easy to use. Sometimes it's buggy and there are problems when doing updates. The user interface is okay, but some configuration items are difficult. I would like it to be less buggy and easier to configure, to better streamline the user experience."
