Information Security Engineer at ICT Misr

Advanced threat detection capabilities with comprehensive incident response features providing robust cybersecurity for organizations

The initial aspect concerns two engines. The first one mentioned is available for searching behaviors directly. The second engine involves the Google Ade tool, which operates on the machine. The challenge arises when attempting to rectify protection rules, causing confusion. It would be beneficial to enhance Rigixs Query. I encounter difficulty removing certain entries in behavior or alerts; likewise, I am unable to add specific calls.

Data Office Protect - DPO at DATATRUSTY TECNOLOGIA

Enables faster updates and provides an easy-to-use user interface

I have an advanced license that includes all features. Though we have the license, we cannot use it completely because it is not enabled in the Microsoft tier. It does not make sense. We do not want to buy it separately because the price is different if we buy separate licenses.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's technical support is perfect, so I rate the technical support a ten out of ten"

"What I like the most about this solution is the complexity. It covers a lot of areas, unlike other solutions."

"After rack and stack, devices were up and running base configurations within two hours. As with any IPS, tuning is required to stop false positives. This is no different, but the ease of use of the interface allowed my team to start making adjustments within a few hours."

"It has also improved our hunt ability with quick search tools, to zone in on malware or other anomalies. It is able to link items to incidents from other consoles, and works natively with the SIEM."

"Compared to similar solutions, it's quite scalable. You just need to add more storage to scale-up."

"It has a rating system now so you can rate things up or down, depending on your environment. This means alerting can be customized, yet still pick up anomalies."

"There are many valuable features. The NDR gives very good network visibility, and the endpoint module has a great feature called "Live Connect" for remote connections. They also have "Tasks" that can be run on endpoints to gather specific information or retrieve logs."

"Reporting is great, it is easy to do a quick search through 45 days of data for something of interest."

More Fidelis Elevate pros

"The most valuable features of SonicWall Capture Client are CSC (Capture Security Center), RTDMI (Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection), and the deep memory inspection feature."

"Overall, what I love the most about SonicWall Capture Client is its management console. SonicWall Capture Client also has the intelligence to tell you which computer is online, what OS it uses, etc. I also found the rollback feature and SentinelOne integration valuable in SonicWall Capture Client. Rollback is a powerful feature of the solution because it's similar to locking your endpoint during an attack, so you won't have to pay the hackers, particularly during ransomware attacks. That feature in SonicWall Capture Client allows you to get back your endpoint or make your endpoint right again after an attack. I also like that it isn't complex to remove the engine error from the endpoint because you only have to provide the security key from SonicWall Capture Client, so the process is simple. It's not complex."

"The solution serves as a very stable platform."

"SonicWall Capture Client has a serial number to connect to your firewall."

"SonicWall Capture Client offers a cost-effective solution that's cheaper compared to other vendors like CrowdStrike."

"The initial setup is straightforward."

"The product’s interface is easy to use."

"The threat protection feature of SonicWall Capture Client is most valuable."

More SonicWall Capture Client pros

Cons

"Fidelis Endpoint is an expensive product making it one of its shortcomings that needs improvement."

"The interface bug needs to be squashed once and for all. This has been the predominant issue with an otherwise stellar product. It reboots itself unscheduled, about once a month, due to a memory buffer flaw in the interface."

"The reports in the endpoint area of Elevate can be improved."

"We position the solution as an antivirus, but this part of the solution needs improvement. They need to generally enhance the features that they have, rather than adding anything new."

"There is room for improvement in email security. It's a security issue. If you're aiming for XDR, covering the entire threat landscape is crucial."

"Configuration, in terms of building the collector and communicating with endpoints, is complex."

"I encounter difficulty removing certain entries in behavior or alerts; likewise, I am unable to add specific calls."

"SonicWall Capture Client could be made a little lighter than it currently is in terms of memory consumption."

"SonicWall Capture Client should use less of our PC's memory, as it tends to slow down the performance."

"Technical support from SonicWall has room for improvement. While their escalation process is understandable, it can be time-consuming as all logs need to be provided multiple times across different service levels."

"An area for improvement in SonicWall Capture Client is TenantCloud support. Suppose you want to implement SonicWall Capture Client. You'll have to register it on MySonicWall. Then once your SonicWall Capture Client license expires and you don't want to renew it, you can't delete it from your MySonicWall account, so that's an area for improvement."

"The biggest issue with SonicWall Capture Client is network latency."

"The implementation is not easy."

"The vulnerability reports need to be better. Windows Defender detected some issues that SonicWall Capture Client couldn't."

"It takes technical support too long to resolve an issue."

More SonicWall Capture Client cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's quite expensive but we can customize it to reduce the price."

"Fidelis Endpoint is an expensive product. My company makes yearly payments toward the licensing cost of the solution."

"You license by the number of days of logs you need to maintain visibility for. Forty-five days is a good solid number for a company with around a 10k user base."

"It's somehow expensive. From one to ten, I would rate it a five. They need to improve the prices. It's very high."

"Here in Indonesia, SonicWall Capture Client costs five hundred thousand rupiahs for every endpoint. If I'm correct, you only have to pay the licensing fee, and there's no additional fee. To me, the pricing for SonicWall Capture Client is four out of five."

"You have to pay for the solution, and a lot of customers do not want to pay."

"The product is very expensive."
