Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
Having both cloud and on-premise solutions enables effective file sanitization and vulnerability detection while preventing attacks that save costs and protect reputation.
MetaDefender has positively impacted my organization by reducing the risk of file-based attacks, which has significantly improved our overall defense against phishing and malware delivery techniques.
I believe it is worth the money, as it brings time-saving, cost-saving, and efficiency improvements, especially in large environments.
Any missed detection will definitely be triggered by Red Canary.
We have probably spent maybe 15% of the time that we were spending on incident investigation and system monitoring, demonstrating a return on investment.
This can save time because many vendors, when they check something and ask for logs, need those logs from the beginning.
When it comes to my communication with agents, I find they are responsive and professional.
Their customer service team, distribution team, and regional sales managers provide excellent aftercare and set us up for upselling across the entire MetaDefender portfolio.
In emergencies, there is an on-call person available to resolve issues immediately.
Their customer support is excellent.
If I need more details about any incident, there is a contact us option to reach an agent.
You need to do some sizing before installation and understand exactly what you are seeking from the solution and how it fits your organization.
When you use one database for all instances, you can deploy ten different servers or ten different instances with a separate database for each one.
We handle vast amounts of traffic from banking, defense, and critical national infrastructure.
We've been able to connect and throw all of the data that we have access to over to their systems to parse, process, and monitor without issue.
The stability of the system is very high.
MetaDefender is 100% stable, making it one of the best cybersecurity solutions we offer.
I find it stable as it maintains good external stability with good availability and no major issues.
I want to see enhancements allowing for automatic ticket creation using APIs to streamline the workflow and assign tickets to respective teams.
MetaDefender should have a wizard or general policies that can be used for 80 percent of customers.
Pricing is an important aspect in catering to customer budgets and is a must-have consideration for organizations.
Red Canary can be improved by continuing to add new features and capabilities.
I wish Red Canary could have a graph that shows the endpoint, user, and how it spreads, providing a visual representation to easily identify what happened.
Red Canary's pricing spectrum may not be ideal for smaller financial institutions.
When someone attempted to buy from us one instance of OPSWAT, it was about nine thousand dollars for multi-scanning with eight engines and also the CDR module.
The price varies based on deployment types; we only used it for file transfer and cloud integration rather than email, which kept it within our budget.
Regarding pricing, setup cost, and licensing, I find the pricing for kiosks, cloud, deep CDR, and adaptive sandbox appropriate.
The services are higher priced.
I believe this is very effective and is the most effective engine of OPSWAT because customers ask for OPSWAT for two main reasons: the CDR capabilities and the multi-scanning engines.
MetaDefender's core philosophy of trusting no file means it scans files, rebuilds them, and verifies their reputation, ensuring they contain no malicious content.
The integration of multi-scanning and Content Disarm and Reconstruction is truly helpful because we can utilize it in other products such as email integration with ICAP capability, and we are also using it in web scanning.
Red Canary has impacted my organization positively because we treat any ticket triggered by them as high priority due to the fact that 99 percent of the time it is a true positive.
Red Canary detects threats and attack patterns, allowing us to assess any significant damage caused to the banking environment, particularly if protected data has been damaged or corrupted.
In my experience, the best features Red Canary offers are their team, their monitoring team, their expertise at incident investigation, and a focus on suspicious or actual indicators of compromise to ensure that we're not spending time just reviewing logs, but that we're actually looking at things that may indicate we have broader issues.
