Managed threat detection efficiently with minimal resource usage
We used the solution as a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. It detected threats, and the team managing our services took care of it. We did not face any major challenges or attacks, and memory utilization was minimal. It functioned very well Cynet was valuable since it efficiently…

While being easy to manage and create reports, the tool also offers a good UI
I rate the ease of use and management of Panda Adaptive Defense 360 an eight on a scale of one to ten. The tool's ability to provide information about the vulnerability is the most impactful feature of the product that has an impact on our company's security posture. Speaking about scenarios where the solution effectively prevented the security breach, I would say that our company sees how the tool blocks when our customers accidentally click on some malware, after which it quarantines that file. My company makes a playbook with the SOAR tool that Panda Adaptive Defense 360 uses to block and isolate attacks. In our company's system, if there is a big event that occurs, then to block the endpoint, we use SOAR with Panda Adaptive Defense 360 to block and isolate attacks or threats. The solution's real-time monitoring has improved our company's ability to detect threats if we use it in our company with Panda SIEMFeeder. Only if in my company there is a need to do some research, prepare a report, or if we want to change the policy, so it is not very often that we use the visualization part of the tool in our company. The reporting and analytics part of the tool has helped with the decision-making in our company since we combine different kinds of logs and situations from different ingestion logs, and we can configure a specific alert. In my company, we use the tool's data search functionality if required to check the information we need. Presently, our company uses the configuration alert and SIEMFeeder in our system. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The visibility it gives is excellent."
"It is quite stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point."
"The product did not utilize much memory or resources from the background, which was a significant advantage."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a very scalable solution...The initial setup of Cynet was easy."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the network part of it because most of the endpoint products in XDS products we find Cynet has networking user behavior analysis and network analysis, for the whole team."
"We are very satisfied with the level of performance we get."
"We are protecting all our workstations."
"It is easy to manage."
"I would give the overall solution a rating of ten out of ten."
"The detection capabilities for malicious activities are effective."
"Great technical support staff."
"The patch management module is very important."
"The detection capabilities for malicious activities are effective."
"The feature I find most valuable is the advance search engine."
"The interface is great."
 

Cons

"We'd like something that makes it easier to manage specific points."
"In future releases, I would like to see cloud security aspects included."
"The inability to add contact information inside the Cynet is also an issue because it makes things more complicated. I would like to have a simple feature to enter a contact name and number for the person taking care of that unit or that server."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support. The support should be faster to respond."
"Cynet is capable and cloud-based, however, enterprise organizations often prefer on-premises servers for managing entire organizations."
"Their support for issues related to the portal or feature problems isn't great."
"There are some shortcomings in Cynet's integration capabilities that need improvement."
"A support center in Asia is needed."
"The stability could be improved. My teammates who use Panda Security and I have experienced some issues."
"The only part I really don't use as much is their firewall. It's a bit superfluous. Most people have their own firewall in place, so they don't really need that part portion of the solution."
"It would be nice if Panda Security Adaptive Defense could come out with remote desktop usage."
"Needs a better way to scan the hardware to detect whether it's valid."
"Their MacOS support isn't that good."
"They could have more reports."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense’s stability could be improved."
"The software has performance issues due to its requirements on the processor, however, these issues are common with other vendors, not just WatchGuard."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing was good."
"It is extremely affordable. I'll give it a five out of five in terms of price. It was half the cost of the next closest competitor, and the competitor didn't provide SOC services."
"It costs 18,000 per year, but we have the whole package with not only Cynet but also the Perception Point for emails. There are also some small security courses for our users."
"It gives you a high level of protection at a very good price."
"It costs us 20,000 to 28,000 per year."
"Pricing wise, Cynet seems to be very competitive. The cost is probably lower than that offered by many of its competitors for all the functions and features it offers."
"Cynet is very affordable."
"The price should not be less than $100 which is quite reasonable for this solution because you are getting multiple components."
"The licensing is subscription-based and priced well compared to other endpoint security solutions."
"The licensing costs are not too high. We pay about 20 Euros a year. It's a reasonable amount to pay."
"Panda is cloud-only and comes at a reasonable cost. It is a set price per seat."
"The price of this solution depends on the number of licenses that you are purchasing."
"Our licensing fee is 1M Euro per month, so it is about 80 Euro's per user."
"I don't think Panda's license is too expensive, but they're charging more than it's worth. It's a yearly license. For 1,000 endpoints, it's around $18,000."
"The solution is priced well for what features it provides."
"There is a license needed to use this solution and it is approximately $30 annually."
