Ashwani Bansal - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Solution Consultant at Orange
Network management and diagnostics improved through effective monitoring and reporting capabilities
The solution is handy. I have not used that particular feature. Maintenance is required for the system. If you want to use something on the endpoints or end-user devices, then using LiveAction LiveNX in place of other tools would be quite beneficial. The solution impacts operational costs and resources. On a scale of 1-10, I rate LiveAction LiveNX a nine.
Michael-Foster - PeerSpot reviewer
Head of IT at Bulkhaul Limited
Has improved threat detection and reduced manual workload through real-time cloud insights
ThreatSync+ NDR has helped identify potential security gaps in my network, and we are currently working on resolving them. The impact on incident response time varies. During daytime operations, it reacts instantly with a notification delay of 10 to 20 minutes, while nighttime notifications can have up to eight hours delay. ThreatSync+ NDR has enhanced our ability to proactively manage network risks by enabling us to implement extra measures at a lower level based on its findings. The compliance reporting tools are comprehensive and meet our requirements. Though we haven't conducted official compliance reporting yet, we anticipate it will save approximately one day of work in report compilation. Regarding pricing, WatchGuard rates a nine out of ten. We maintain 1,001 licenses for ThreatSync+ NDR, serving approximately 1,000 users, with about 300 local users in the UK. ThreatSync+ NDR's effectiveness in identifying weaknesses before exploitation is excellent and very quick. I recommend ThreatSync+ NDR to other users based on its rapid deployment and immediate value delivery. I rate ThreatSync+ NDR 9 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The intention and the idea of the filter is great, but it is far, far away from good and perfect."
"LiveAction LiveNX provides valuable real-time and historical network traffic visualization capabilities that help monitor and analyze network performance."
"There are many positive attributes, and it's the best of the best."
"One of the valuable features is the ability to create CLI scripts on the fly to fix any issues. We were using it for QoS modeling to ensure that we were properly modeling QoS, and it basically said here is what you need to fix to get this QoS done, whether it is ACL or something else. It would either push or recommend. If you have the right credentials, you could also push. It is very good if you are a Cisco shop. It gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning. There are a lot of pieces that LiveNX can give you. It is a total NPM solution for SD-WAN."
"It is very good if you are a Cisco shop; it gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning."
"On a scale of 1-10, I rate LiveAction LiveNX a nine."
"The alerting feature is very good because it allows you to set MOS alerts at various network junctures or data points."
"If you're looking for a tool that will solve your problems in a short period of time more effectively, LiveNX is the right tool."
"ThreatSync NDR is a strong addition to our company's security architecture."
"Implementing ThreatSync+ NDR has influenced our business significantly as it provides enhanced security and saves several hours daily by eliminating manual log reviews."
 

Cons

"It is not as robust as other NPM solutions. For instance, there is a problem while labeling specific applications. It works well with well-known applications, but when you have to put in new applications that are not very known and set them up with names, ports, URLs, or some protocols, it is not as intuitive."
"The only downside to this software is the price."
"My advice to others would be to run away from it. This is a slight exaggeration but this is more because the application is horrible, the stability is horrible, the performance is horrible and the support is horrible."
"This is a horrible solution and I think everything needs to be improved."
"It is not as robust as other NPM solutions."
"Sometimes the solution does not register devices properly and that is a bug."
"Improved documentation and more responsive customer support can help in addressing issues faster."
"Maintenance is required for the system."
"There are definitely areas for improvements in ThreatSync NDR, as no product is perfect. Its effectiveness depends on proper network visibility, so if important traffic segments are not mirrored or monitored, detection may be incomplete."
"After using ThreatSync+ NDR for about a year, areas for improvement include the ability to pull logs from other vendors using an API."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is fairly expensive compared to other products."
"We use the free version."
"It's very expensive."
