Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 3, 2024

Netwrix Endpoint Protector and Safetica ONE are prominent competitors in the Data Loss Prevention (DLP) market. While Netwrix holds the advantage in cross-platform compatibility and features like Device Control, Safetica is favored for its budget-friendly options and intuitive setup.

Features: Netwrix Endpoint Protector offers Device Control, Content-Aware Protection, Enforced Encryption, and eDiscovery, making it suitable for hybrid environments with Windows, macOS, and Linux. Safetica ONE focuses on ease of use and compliance with a strong emphasis on data leak protection.

Room for Improvement: Netwrix could enhance its offering with network-level DLP and SaaS DLP and address policy granularity and uninstallation complexity. Safetica lacks Linux support and could improve integration with more firewall brands beyond FortiGate, alongside enhancing stability and support.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Netwrix offers on-premises and cloud deployment options, though customer service experiences vary in follow-through. Safetica supports hybrid cloud scenarios but shares similar challenges with Netwrix in terms of support delays.

Pricing and ROI: Netwrix's pricing is reasonable, but its licensing changes have raised concerns. Safetica, despite being perceived as expensive, offers competitive pricing against peers and shows potential for substantial risk reduction and efficiency returns.

It's easy to set up because you point the DNS to it, and it's working in under 15 minutes

Cloudflare is highly scalable. Cloudflare is a system with a web portal that the end users like me see. It's a console where we can adjust the DNS, caching, and security features all in that console. Cloudflare owns thousands of servers across the world that cache the data. It's a powerful solution. When clients sign up for Cloudflare, they're getting this monster content delivery network, security, and a web application firewall in one. It's all rolled into one, and it's massive. Unless you have your website hosted on a massive hosting provider, there's no way that you can deliver the amount of data that Cloudflare can provide to the end users. If you have static content, there's no way that you can ever match what Cloudflare can do. Obviously, there are competitors to Cloudflare that do the same, but I'm saying other types of solutions. Let's say you go with F5. Great, that's on-prem. That's in your colo. You can't deliver as much data to the internet as you can with a CDN. You don't have to spend $20,000 on a net scaler, F5, or whatever Cisco's selling now. You don't have to buy that. You pay them $50 a month or $150 a month. It's totally worth it because even in five years, you'll never get the performance value, not just the actual ROI. You have to consider how much throughput you can get with Cloudflare.

Block USBs and manage ports effectively across multiple OS platforms

There is an important feature that needs to be added. In Linux, it is difficult to control uninstallation. Users can uninstall it at any time, and we can only monitor that it is uninstalled. If there is a feature that can notify in the master dashboard that an agent has been uninstalled, it would be very beneficial.

Comes with data leak protection features but technical support is too slow

We use the solution for endpoints. The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection. Safetica ONE's technical support is too slow. I have been using the product for six months. I rate the product's stability a nine out of ten. I rate Safetica ONE's scalability a five out of…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The web application firewall brought us good security and a view of the accesses/blocks of the entire domain and subdomain that were accessed both by region (country) and IPs."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is external DNS. It is also very secure. They have their own main server and once you configure it, the product takes care of everything. There are no issues in resolving IPs and low latency is also present."

"Its most significant benefit to date is the speed with which it refreshes DNS records on the internet once you change it. If you are changing a website or registering a new record, it is very quick."

"The most valuable feature of Cloudflare DNS is its global reach and it is always evolving."

"The solution offers the flexibility to control configuration rules."

"It is a fast and secure DNS."

"Even when there is a high load on our servers, Cloudflare is able to cache the data and serve it to users, ensuring they can still access the website."

"I like Cloudflare's application gateway and DDoS protection."

More Cloudflare pros

"The search for keywords is very important in our security operations because one of the key use cases we had was for the ability to search keyword-based on an internal database of keywords that have been submitted by other project managers within the company that's around intellectual property. The ability to search on keywords was part of that."

"I like the data protection feature. Our users were working on a client's CRM application with a lot of client-related EIA information. We did not want the users to be able to send any of this data outside. I also like its ability to protect against data leaks via emails and social media. I like that you can deploy it quickly, and it requires no training."

"There are a lot of features, but the main feature is that I can use a device serial number to unlock any particular machine or for all machines. If I have a phone, like a Samsung phone, I can whitelist that specific phone for full access wherever it is plugged into any of our devices. This is the same with a USB, because most USBs come in bulk and have the same serial number. I can then whitelist that particular USB to be read-write with full access."

"The device control is a big deal for us because we can actually lock out removable drives and different types of hardware. It allows us to have better control over what end-users plug into their computers, and we can have deny lists and tighten our security posture."

"Endpoint Protector's best features are its protection and user-friendliness."

"The role-based access features for the teams that administer it is good."

"The most valuable features are the ability to prevent access to external devices, and also site blocking."

"All of the features are effective, but the highlight feature of the product was the data layer inspection. When we talk about a DLP product, data packet inspection is very important. Securing data at rest is easy, but securing data in transit is challenging. We used it comprehensively to secure end drives, data transfers, secure hard drives, and end-user machines. It proved monumental in our operations."

More Netwrix Endpoint Protector pros

"The current version of the solution is stable...It is easy to scale the solution."

"ESET Safetica is a cost-effective solution for customers who need a small quantity along with a competitive price."

"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."

"The most valuable things about Safetica ONE are its comprehensive features, competitive pricing, and a strong focus on data security and compliance."

"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Safetica ONE is simple."

"Safetica ONE is easy to use and set up. We can set up rules and policies quickly."

"The most valuable feature is the data classification."

"When you subscribe to the DLP, the system manages and protects your files well from the cloud."

Cons

"The pricing could be improved."

"The tool needs to improve caching of servers. The product needs to include PFX certificate as well."

"It would be helpful if the solution could continue evolving to compete with the other solutions on the market."

"One area of improvement is in the Access Rules. Hypothetically, if we wanted to block or challenge traffic outside of the United States, the only way to currently do that (as far as I know) is to enter every single country outside of the United States. That could be a labor intensive job. A solution could be to enable users to create a rule where traffic is only allowed within a certain country."

"We have noticed multiple instances where Cloudflare falsely indicates that our servers are down, even when there is no actual load on them. This makes it challenging for us to identify the exact issue."

"The timing aspect can lead to it being considered overpriced. This is a particular concern we have with Cloudflare, as they may struggle with accurately detecting the client."

"DNS Management."

"Cloudflare's free plan is limited to 5,000 records for their free plan. They should increase that. For example, if I create a domain called abc.com and a subdomain called a.abc.com, my record count will be two. I can make a maximum of 5,000 subdomains. However, if we use our own DNS hosted on another provider, there is no limit. Their free plan also lacks name server customization."

More Cloudflare cons

"They have many predefined classifiers in terms of data identifiers, and they should improve this."

"It needs to improve in terms of policy customization."

"We are currently facing an issue where it is blocking the Winman software, which is something that we don't want to happen because we use it in our accounts department to pay taxes."

"There are times when the server needs to be updated, and it would help if I got a notification for when the newest version comes out, because at the moment, I'm going in every now and then and checking. Sometimes it comes out and I didn't know it had come out."

"Endpoint Protector would be improved with more DLP templates."

"When you want to uninstall and reinstall, there are a lot of issues. You have to do a lot of workarounds to reinstall Endpoint Protector. This is a major issue that we have constantly because we still have old systems with XP. While there are only very few, we need to run them because there are machines attached that only run on XP. When we need to uninstall and reinstall on XP or Windows 10, we have serious issues left in the Registry Editor everywhere. There is a lot of manual interference to get the reinstallation to work. For the uninstallation of Endpoint Protector, they need to work on this so it doesn't leave any leftovers behind."

"The only aspect that prevents it from being a perfect solution is the occasional slower response time."

"The reports and analysis could be improved. There could be a little more data, and the logs could be a little more granular, but it's nothing major. It does what it needs to do, and it's fine."

More Netwrix Endpoint Protector cons

"There are some minor issues with the price and support of the solution that needs to be improved."

"One area for improvement in Safetica is its firewall integration feature."

"The product needs to improve support."

"This solution could be improved if it was available on Linux as well. Currently it can only be deployed on Mac and Windows."

"ESET Safetica’s stability could be improved."

"Safetica ONE fails to support Linux."

"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."

"Safetica One has every other thing that you need, so I cannot give Safetica NXT a higher mark because it does not have the full features of the enterprise solutions."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a premium model. You can start at zero and work your way up to the enterprise model, which has a very high pricing level."

"When you compare Cloudflare DNS to other solutions, such as Akamai, the price is reasonable."

"We are using the free version."

"So far I use free tier and happy with it. You can subscribe to business package if needed."

"The tool is a premium product, so it is very expensive."

"The pricing depends on the usage, but the cheapest would be around 5,000 USD a month."

"For Cloudflare, I recommend it heavily for small businesses with revenue under a couple of million dollars. Onboarding is easy, and they even have a free plan. This makes it simple for businesses in the $100,000-$500,000 range to try it out and see its value, allowing them to scale up their infrastructure as needed."

"There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."

More Cloudflare pricing and cost advice

"The software comes with a higher price tag when compared to other DLP solutions."

"From what we've seen, their pricing is a lot lower than the other stuff we've looked at. I actually don't have any concerns with their pricing. They were probably the most reasonable company out there for the features that were offered. It was pretty straightforward in terms of licensing, and you just pay for the license."

"The pricing depends on the customers."

"The price of Endpoint Protector by CoSoSys is more or less the same as other competing solutions."

"When I last renewed the license it was for a two-year term, and they gave me the second year at half price."

"We have a limited budget for our media section. When we purchased it last year, we migrated from a different solution to this solution, and at that time, they told us that the cost will remain the same, but this year, they increased the price by 20% or something like that. I am not sure about the exact price, but let's say from 8,000, it increased to 10,000. It was a huge gap, and we couldn't bear this cost because we have a limited budget. When we spoke to them, they understood our problem and reduced it to the same price that we had last year."

"It has a fair price. They just changed recently from perpetual licensing. When I bought it, I bought it on perpetual license, then they changed the whole company policy to go to subscription. It was a bit of a shock to us because we haven't upgraded it that many times. However, after speaking to CoSoSys directly, they gave us a very good renewal price."

"The pricing is very competitive and is cheaper in comparison to that of other solutions. It makes it an easy decision to go with EPP for the data loss prevention infrastructure."

More Netwrix Endpoint Protector pricing and cost advice

"The pricing for ESET Safetica is less as compared to other solutions. The customers have to pay only for the license."

"Customers need to pay for a yearly license per device."

"Safetica ONE is expensive."

"The licensing cost for this solution depends on the deal size and your use case. In our instance, it costs $35 per user per year. This is a reasonable price."

The robust global connectivity cloud platform that is Cloudflare ensures users are able to connect to the Internet quickly, securely, and reliably. Cloudflare is one of the world's largest networks in the marketplace today.

Reviews from real users

“Many websites require an SSL certificate because they sell stuff and want SSL. Cloudflare
comes with an SSL certificate built in. It's automatic. You sign yourself up for Cloudflare, and
an SSL certificate automatically protects your website. If you have a connection between your
website and your host, the server, Cloudflare, and the host, you don't necessarily need a
certificate.” Spencer M., Owner at Tech Exchange

“What I like best about Cloudflare is that my company can use it to trace and manage
applications and monitor traffic. The solution tells you if there's a spike in traffic. Cloudflare
also sends you a link to check your equipment and deployment and track it through peering,
so it's a valuable tool.” Daniel P., Network Engineer at Ufinet

“The most valuable feature of Cloudflare is the GUI. You are able to control the solution very
well through the interface. There is a lot of functionality that is embedded in the service.” PeerSpot user, Competence Center Manager at a tech services company
