Cloud Native Security does offer ROI.
It eliminates the need for additional hardware, making it a financially and technically sound investment.

6.1
User feedback on Tenable's support varies, highlighting issues with response times, accessibility, and additional charges for service.
When we send an email, they respond quickly and proactively provide solutions.
They took direct responsibility for the system and could solve queries quickly.
Having a reliable team ready and willing to assist with any issues is essential.

One is always available.
For issues rated as a high priority, they provide assistance within one to two hours.
It needs improvement in response time and addressing feature requests promptly.
The technical support of Tenable Vulnerability Management is available 24/7, and whenever we require support, we can get it within five minutes.
I would evaluate Tenable Vulnerability Management's customer service and technical support as average.

It's scalable.
The scalability is also a 10 out of 10.

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is stable and reliable, with occasional UI lags but generally praised for consistent performance.
Sentiment score
8.0

Sentiment score
8.1
Tenable Vulnerability Management is lauded for stability and reliability, with minor issues, rating between seven and ten.
It's a reliable solution that the organization is increasingly adopting for its robust features and security.
We contacted Cloud Native Security, and they addressed it in a day.
The only downtime we had was when switching from V1 to V2 but it was smooth.
I would rate it a ten out of ten for stability.

Room For Improvement

SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security needs enhancements in affordability, integration, support, customization, documentation, and performance for improved user experience.
Prisma Cloud needs improvements in documentation, UI, automation, integrations, pricing, and support, with challenges in compliance and cloud support.
Users want improved interface, customization, integration, and support for Tenable Vulnerability Management, with clearer licensing and automation features.
If they can merge Kubernetes Security with other modules related to Kubernetes, that would help us to get more modules in the current subscription.
As organizations move to the cloud, a cloud posture management tool that offers complete cloud visibility becomes crucial for maintaining compliance.
I would also like to see Cloud Native Security offer APIs that allow us to directly build dashboards within the platform.
From a developer's perspective, especially for organizations like banks developing their applications, ensuring API security before deploying them to the cloud is crucial.
Prisma Cloud is an excellent tool.
Even though documentation was available, it took a while for a new person to understand what integration meant, what will be achieved after the integration, or how the integration needed to be done on the Azure or AWS side.
They should also accelerate the process of implementing new features upon request.
I would suggest HP WebInspect as a better option than Tenable.io.
Tenable Vulnerability Management is not very effective for real-time risk prioritization for our organization's security strategy.
 

Setup Cost

SentinelOne Singularity is competitively priced but perceived as costly for larger deployments and possibly unsuitable for smaller businesses.
Prisma Cloud is expensive but valued for comprehensive security, flexible licensing, and potential cost savings in multi-cloud environments.
Tenable Vulnerability Management is pricey but valued for features, with users desiring flexible, cost-effective pricing models.
I believe the enterprise version costs around $55 per user per year.
There are some tools that are double the cost of Cloud Native Security.
I recall Cloud Native Security charging a slightly higher premium previously.
The cost was not on the higher side.
That's why a lot of our clients are shifting from cloud-native to Prisma Cloud: because of its effectiveness and because it is budget-friendly as well.
The solution is very expensive.
Tenable charges around $40 per device, while Rapid7 costs $10 to $15 per device.
 

Valuable Features

SentinelOne excels in ease of use, real-time detection, automated remediation, and seamless integration, enhancing security operations efficiently.
Prisma Cloud enhances security with dynamic identity creation, compliance management, and integration across AWS and CI/CD pipelines.
Tenable Vulnerability Management offers comprehensive scanning and integration with features enhancing usability, scalability, and security compliance support.
This helps visualize potential attack paths and even suggests attack paths a malicious actor might take.
The infrastructure-as-code feature is helpful for discovering open ports in some of the modules.
This tool has been helpful for us. It allows us to search for vulnerabilities and provides evidence directly on the screen.
With this product, we can monitor all the things even if they are on different clouds - and it can be done on one platform.
What I like most about Prisma Cloud is its zero-day signatures, maximum security, minimal downtime, cloud visibility, control, and ease of deployment.
All five modules are taking a preventative approach to the security of the cloud environment, from the network to the cloud, posture management and workload protection.
Tenable enables vulnerability management through potential AI integration that consolidates efforts and resolves multiple vulnerabilities simultaneously.
The main benefit of integration with Tenable Vulnerability Management is that there will be no lack of missing vulnerabilities when it comes to the patching environment.
The best features of Tenable Vulnerability Management are flexibility, breadth and scope, and the fact that their current vulnerabilities come out, and they have tests for them within a day or two.

Featured Reviews

Ritesh P. - PeerSpot reviewer
It's more scalable and flexible than our previous solution because we don't need to install any agents
The reporting works well, but sometimes the severity classifications are inaccurate. Sometimes, it flags an issue as high-impact, but it should be a lower severity. For example, it might highlight an exposed AWS encryption key, a critical compliance issue, but it isn't tagged as a high-risk problem. That only happens about 10 percent of the time. It shows a true positive 80-90 percent of the time.
Mohammad Qaw - PeerSpot reviewer
It gives you one console to see all of your assets, review their configurations, and build your processes
Most customers use Prisma Cloud for visibility and compliance. Prisma has so many features, but many organizations do not use them. They primarily use the visibility part to connect all their cloud accounts and hosts for visibility to see if they are missing any security controls or if they have any misconfigurations. You can connect it to cloud environments such as Azure, AWS, Oracle Cloud, Alibaba, etc., or to an on-prem data center. Prisma Cloud gives you so many options to automate processes related to your daily operations. When it comes to cybersecurity, you can automate things with their existing APIs. They also have out-of-the-box integrations with many solutions. I have not seen any limitations. Everything is customizable. You can do whatever you want, defining the reporting and custom use cases. They recently updated the UI, so it's much better than before.
Chethan Gowda - PeerSpot reviewer
Have maintained accurate vulnerability scans and gained actionable remediation insights across thousands of servers
Tenable Vulnerability Management agents are very lightweight, and the results we get are very accurate. The solutions they provide to us, assuming if one vulnerability exists, there will be a solution. The resolution they give us in wording will be the best solution. The exploit rates and the reports we get provide a lot of information, making it very easy for us to verify.The main benefit of integration with Tenable Vulnerability Management is that there will be no lack of missing vulnerabilities when it comes to the patching environment. That is one of the key aspects of why we have integrated Tenable to our patching tools. It has a vast capacity of pushing the data to our tools due to its capability and compatibility. That is also one of the reasons why we are using Tenable Vulnerability Management.
