We performed a comparison between Cisco Secure Network Analytics and ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Zabbix, Datadog, Auvik and others in Network Monitoring Software."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the logging, keeping threats under control, and keeping our data and environment secure."
"The most valuable feature is anomaly detection, where it finds things that are not allowed internally."
"Cisco Secure Network Analytics has increased the visibility of what is happening in our network, and I think that's the most important reason to use it. We can see what is really happening instead of just looking at numbers from routers or switches."
"The most valuable feature about this solution is that it gives me insight of my network."
"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."
"It does change the way we troubleshoot and it is relatively easy to use once you learn it. I would recommend it to someone considering it."
"StealthWatch lets me see the ports running in and out and the country. It has excellent reporting, telemetry, and artificial intelligence features. With the telemetry, I can set thresholds to detect sudden changes and the alarms go through the PLC parts. I can see all the ports running on that trunk."
"Stability is the most valuable feature we have seen in this solution."
"It's a solid platform and is stable enough. It is not complicated and is easy to use."
"The product automatically generated a threat score based on the maliciousness of an IP."
"ThreatConnect has a highly user-friendly interface."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and the ability to customize it."

"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"We are continuing down the road of ACI and ISE with Cisco, so we would like to see the continuation of Stealthwatch integrating into ISE for exchange of information, and also, more into the ACI environment too."
"Many of these tools require extensive on-premises hardware to run."
"We've run into some issues with the configuration."
"The ability to be natively integrated into Port Aggregator would be beneficial because it would reduce just one more component that's needed in order to have that type of view."
"Stealthwatch is still maturing in AI. It uses artificial intelligence for predictions, but AI still needs to mature. It is in a phase where you get 95% correct detection. As its AI engine learns more, it will become more accurate. This is applicable to all the devices that are using AI because they support both supervised and unsupervised machine learning. The accuracy in the case of supervised machine learning is dependent on the data you feed into the box. The accuracy in the case of unsupervised machine learning is dependent on the algorithm. The algorithm matures depending on retrospective learning, and this is how it is able to detect zero-day attacks."
"The initial setup was straightforward but required a lot of data entry, to begin with building out the server types and network types."
"One update I would like to see is an agent-based client. Currently StealthWatch is network based."
"I think the interface is a little lacking. The interface seems like it just needs to be modernized. It's been the same interface now, ever since I've seen it probably four years ago."
"Integration is an area that could use some improvement."
"They should make it a little bit easier to generate events and share them with the community"
"I couldn’t get any training videos online when I was working with the tool."
"It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment."
