We performed a comparison between Skyhigh Security and Saviynt based on real PeerSpot user reviews in five categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Skyhigh Security is the preferred choice over Saviynt due to its wider product support range, efficient backup features, and flexibility of use. It is also considered a market leader with good protection overall, helpful technical support, and reasonable pricing. Saviynt has room for improvement in terms of functionality and stability, and its licensing is considered expensive. While Saviynt is praised for its workflows and certification features, its technical support and implementation services need improvement. Overall, Skyhigh Security offers more benefits and better value for users.
"The most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"The solution is stable."
"The protection offered by the product is the most valuable feature. It detects vulnerabilities or traps on our users' phones and then prompts them to clean up their devices. Tools we used previously would only discover, which required us to gather information on the backend, so Lookout is a welcome upgrade."
"On the outside, the main differentiation is because Lookout ingest. They have ingested basically all of the apps for the last ten years and all the versions of all the apps, and we have that in a corporate database that allows us to do very large-scale machine learning and analysis on that data set. That's not something that any of the competitors really have the capability to do because they don't have access to the data set. A lot of the apps you can no longer get them because that version of the app is five or six years old, and it just doesn't exist anywhere anymore, except within our infrastructure. So, the ability to have that very rich dataset and learn from that dataset is a real differentiator."
"This product works well out of the box and if you don’t want to do a lot of configuration then this is the best tool."
"It is very easy to use. It addresses most of the trends in identity governance and risk management."
"Saviynt is easy to configure and manage."
"The most valuable features of Saviynt are database utility and report generation. These two features have a major impact, particularly when you are trying to create a report because, in other systems, you need to use a third-party utility such as a BI tool or any other reporting tool to fetch the data and send out the report to a third party team. In Saviynt, it's a system within a system, so you don't have to use any third-party tool because you can directly do your query and write that code on Saviynt and then send that report to the team."
"It's easy to manage and easy to use; a simple tool for end-users."
"It gives very good and in-depth knowledge about a particular identity. Everything is through a single click. We get to know the workflows related to a particular identity with a single click."
"It's a highly functional system and a very well rounded solution. The onboarding of applications is solid. Their user access reviews are very good. Their role-based model and their identity life cycle stuff are solid. It's a very well rounded, strong product."
"Saviynt has better integration with enterprise systems like SAP, Microsoft, Adobe, and AWS."
"The product has a very high rating from reviewers. It's a well-respected product."
"What's most valuable in Skyhigh Security is its level of security. Another valuable feature of the solution is threat analysis."
"Shadow IT reporting capabilities."
"It also prevents you from writing data to your Gmail and does not allow you to move your data outside of the corporate system. That is the most important feature for me."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"The stability is the most valuable feature. We haven't had any issues with the product."
"Good anti-virus filtering, URL categorization, and reporting capabilities."
"The other products that I have evaluated do not have the scalability options that McAfee has."
"We just submitted an enhancement request reflecting the main area we want to see improvement in; the APIs. Currently, we're able to build dashboards, but it's somewhat backward because we use our MDM API to create them. Lookout should provide API to customers so we can query our data and use it in our cloud, and this is the only outstanding area for improvement with the product right now."
"Lookout was moving into the SSE space. And so their work on SecureWeb Gateway and SD-WAN is still sort of evolving."
"The stability depends on the service from where you access it. Because sometimes, the place you are in, you have Gateway. You don't have Gateway. The gateway is overutilized. At the end, you need to go through their gateways. And this is the key point here. You have a tracking point. If it's not well orchestrated, and it scales up as you add more to the existing team, you will suffer"
"From the analysis that we've done, they do seem to be maybe a step behind in trying to enter the market with a new solution. But when they do pick up, they do come out with some good products."
"The solution is hosted on AWS cloud, and there is some dependency that affects our bottom line."
"It should support more customizations. In SailPoint, we can do many customizations, but we are not able to do that in Saviynt. For workflows and other things, we can only use what is already in place. Saviynt has a lot of scope for improvement on the customization part."
"According to feedback I've received, some users prefer SailPoint over Saviynt in real complex environments. SailPoint has its provisioning platform. Complex integrations may pose challenges in scenarios like a large bank with thousands of users, making SailPoint a preferred choice for some."
"The custom application integration is a little complex, and this tool doesn't provide so many plugins or additional applications."
"The tool is difficult to migrate."
"The product's stability is not easy to maintain."
"Both SailPoint IdentityNow and Saviynt have some bugs, but SailPoint is considered more mature with fewer bugs due to its longer establishment in the market since around 2005. SailPoint had its share of bugs in the early days, but they have resolved them over time, resulting in a stable product. Saviynt, on the other hand, was launched around 2013 or 2014 and is actively working to improve its product. Despite having some bugs, Saviynt is making progress and aims to build a stable product, but it is not there yet."
"We sometimes experience performance issues when the solution fails to process the data between two different applications."
"McAfee needs to add more products that could be managed from the cloud."
"De-tokenization."
"It needs to be more user-friendly, as it is a little bit complicated to use."
"Though the Skyhigh Dashboard is processing large amounts of data, the speed of the Dashboard could be improved."
"The encrypted disk implementation could be improved. I currently use it from a dongle or USB key with two-factor authentication to access my computer."
"They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support."
"The documentation could be improved."
"The secure gateway could be improved."
