"When it comes to scalability, there's no size limit. It varies based on licenses and requirements."
"It tells you if there is any communication going to command and control servers, or if there is any traffic that violates your internal policy, or if any data hoarding is happening where data is being dumped from your machine to outside of the environment. It provides all such meaningful reports to help you understand what's happening."
"Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud is scalable because it is on the cloud."
"The most valuable features of ExtraHop Reveal(x) are the detection and alerting of network behavior and anomalies."
"The solution's ability to decrypt SSL traffic is its most valuable feature."

"When there are performance issues with an HTTP app, ExtraHop enables us to identify the causes within a few minutes. We can see what transactions are being impacted by something that may be happening within the server environment."
"The solution works well for sending sensors."
"Setting up the solution is relatively easy."
"The product needs to improve its user-friendliness. It is very tricky and you need to study it before using the standard functionalities."
"When I used to work on it, I just didn't see anything new happening for about a year and a half. Providing newer data and newer reports constantly would help. There should be more classifications and more interesting data."
"The initial setup is a bit complex in terms of deployment and configuration"
"If we migrate these things to an event or send us an email if there is any critical event, I would like to configure these things on the initial launch. Because if a system is compromised, there will be a lot of data movement from one post to another post to the outside. Then, we should also get an alert on email as well. We have since we have integrated these things. But a direct email for critical alerts should be there. So, I would like to enhance the critical event configuration."
"Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud could improve the graphical user interface. It could be a more user-friendly graphical user interface. so that. Not everybody's a cyber security professional, most of the customers that I deal with are not very skilled. The terms that they use in the solution are quite understandable for a normal CIO."
"The initial setup of Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud is complex."
"The product's price is high."
"The solution is expensive and gets more expensive if a company needs to scale it."
"I think the tuning capabilities could be improved. We're working on minimizing false positives. Apart from that, everything seems fine to me."
"There is a little training online, but it'd be cool if ExtraHop provided certifications. CrowdStrike does elective training that gives you a certification as a Falcon administrator. It'd be nice to see ExtraHop have something like that"
"Netflow - Processing Netflow can be cumbersome as it requires triggers to truly gain value and insight. This in turn can add a bit of load to the hardware. The focus of ExtraHop Reveal (x) is live packet data."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"Agent management could certainly use some focus. It should also be a little bit easier to work with collections. We should be able to nest collections within collections. There should be better nesting."
"It needs integration with more security vendors."
"The solution's reporting part and GUI are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
