Support and integration enhance security posture over three years
I don't know if there's something that could be improved. They surprise me. As I mentioned, I returned a month ago. I haven't fully investigated the complete system yet. I must say that we have been with them for around three years. This is amazing because throughout these three years, they have supported us every week. We meet weekly to review results and fix issues together. Apart from occasional days off, this weekly support has been consistent for three years. It's remarkable because many products are sold and then the product teams forget about you, but this isn't the case with Cymulate.

Automation simplifies workflows with no code and excellent support
Reporting and dashboards could be more advanced for deeper analysis. Tines has its own dashboard, which displays information like how many stories have been created and how many automations have taken place. However, the reporting and dashboard are not advanced; they are quite basic, with fewer customizable options. The look and feel of the dashboard could be enhanced. Another area for improvement is in terms of documentation, as every tool and company has its own knowledge base.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"The most valuable feature for us is the zero-day."
"Cymulate is easy to set up, install, and configure."
"The reporting capabilities are very good."
"With Cymulate, the best features are the capacity to test the EDR or malware, anti-malware solution."

Cons

"The cost can be quite high, and it impacts scalability as more simulations require additional expenses."
"The product must provide consultancy for initial setup."
"We have had some trouble with the agents."
"The way Cymulate works for EDR could be improved, as it drops payload and requires action from the EDR console for remediation, which can block the whole process of Cymulate execution."
"I will be honest, we have it, but in the last year, I didn't maintain the system until a month ago."
"The reporting process requires significant improvement as it often takes longer than expected and the quality is lacking."
"Maybe Tines can add more features and demonstrations, like videos on how to use the features within the tool."
"Tines was a little bit more expensive than Torq."
"They started implementing some AI, and their AI is isolated."
