Experience boosts operational efficiency while performance sees room for improvement
I don't have specific information on whether it was purchased on the AWS marketplace or somewhere else. I am working with Dynatrace Operator. I am also working with Algosec, Alluvio, CrowdStrike, Firemon, Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline, and other solutions. I think it's a good tool, and I am satisfied with it. We have not stored cloud workloads with Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline yet; we are still on-premises. The technical support takes about one to two hours to respond, which is acceptable. I am satisfied with the scalability of the product. The interface is good.

AI triage has streamlined real-time alert monitoring and has improved on-call incident response
The best features Panther offers are AI Triage, the ability to comment on our activities, and seamless integration with other communication sources such as PagerDuty, Microsoft Teams, and potentially Slack, showcasing the flexibility we have in using this tool. The most valuable feature for my team is definitely AI Triage, which helps save a lot of time by eliminating the need for manual research regarding patterns that may be repeated, making our work easier and more efficient. Panther has positively impacted my organization as it serves as one of the main sources for triaging real-time incidents. Panther definitely plays a key role in the work that we do. Specific outcomes that show how Panther has helped our organization include saving a lot of time, especially since the AI Triage feature reduces the necessity to reach out to others for clarity, which it occasionally accomplishes on its own. To be honest, it does lack some aspects. For example, if it could access our organizational knowledge, including the Jira database, it might better analyze incidents and determine whether they are false positives or not by using more contextual data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Pipeline's Comprehensive Insights into data flows have helped improve operational efficiency and security."
"The most valuable feature is NetFlow."
"It has high stability."
"It offers straightforward integration."
"The most valuable feature for improving network visibility with Gigamon is the packet filtering capability."
"We use Gigamon for network visibility."
"It is a good product. It provides network visibility, which is important. Gigamon can bring some optimizations to my network. It is helpful for security inspection, and it makes my firewall work fast because my firewall doesn't have to do the inspection of the SSL connections, for example."
"The solution is straightforward to set up."
"The AI Triage feature saves a considerable amount of time, and if it were to incorporate organizational knowledge, it could provide finer-tuned results."
"I find Panther's detection capabilities and integrations to be highly valuable."
"We have seen a return on investment measured primarily through SOC efficiency and productivity improvements, with teams observing a twenty to thirty-five percent improvement in investigation efficiency depending on the environment and product maturity."
 

Cons

"They should increase the solution's cluster capacity."
"Its filtering feature needs improvement."
"The challenge is monitoring the cloud network."
"It only inspects a specific kind of traffic. There should be different kinds of use cases."
"The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline should have a feature showing the traffic flow within its platform. Currently, customers have to use separate tools for monitoring, which is inconvenient. If it had its visibility feature, it would make monitoring easier and more complete without needing extra tools."
"The security should be improved."
"The graphical user interface could be improved."
"Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline needs to improve its performance. I face issues with performance because we use SPAN, and the SPAN traffic is not good."
"The solution could be improved by providing more built-in integrations, which would reduce the need for me to build them myself."
"Regarding Panther's accuracy and reliability of output, I would rate it at 70 percent since, at times, it identifies findings as valid when they may actually be false positives, which we have experienced in a few cases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is highly-priced."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"I would rate the solution as expensive, around an eight or nine out of ten. There are other competitive solutions available."
