Executive SummaryUpdated on Mar 15, 2026

Securiti and Varonis compete in the data security solutions category. Securiti offers a competitive edge with its AI-enabled data governance and zero trust architecture, while Varonis leads in access permission management and threat detection.

Features: Securiti focuses on automated sensitive data intelligence, providing effective data discovery and robust compliance features such as consent management and data lineage visualization. It supports a zero trust architecture with role-based access control, boosting its AI-enabled data governance. Varonis excels in data access governance and threat detection, integrating well with platforms like ChatGPT Enterprise and Zoom. It offers strong analytics and behavior monitoring, vital for compliance, and is recognized for its remediation features across various platforms.

Room for Improvement: Securiti needs to enhance accurate data classification across all data types and improve workflow and assessment automation compared to competitors like OneTrust. Its technical support and documentation need improvement, and automation also requires advancement. Varonis, however, needs a smoother transition to cloud services and faces high licensing costs, with room for tighter integration with third-party solutions. The data scanning process can be time-consuming, and manual updates can hinder usability.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Securiti provides flexible deployment options, including hybrid, on-premises, and public cloud environments, earning high customer support ratings due to responsive regional teams, though technical support quality varies. Varonis also supports multiple deployment environments with more emphasis on cloud transition; however, customer service feedback ranges from highly supportive to needing improvement in technical explanations. Securiti's deployment flexibility receives more favorable reviews than Varonis, which focuses on enhancing cloud capabilities.

Pricing and ROI: Securiti is competitive in pricing, particularly for data discovery, offering significant ROI by reducing manual efforts and increasing automation, with a flexible licensing structure. However, it can appear costly over time. Varonis is perceived as expensive due to licensing costs and the need for multiple modules, adding to the expense, but is considered a worthwhile investment due to comprehensive features, though cost-prohibitive for smaller companies. Both platforms provide substantial returns on investment relative to their pricing.

Network Architect at IP Dimension

Cloud security has improved remote access and has reduced costs for smaller client sites

I have used Cloudflare One's Identity-Aware Proxy, and it is quite straightforward from what I have seen so far. The app registration on the Azure side integrates fully into Cloudflare, and I am very satisfied with that part because it is easy to set up. The integration of Cloudflare One's Secure Web Gateway and Zero Trust Network Access works without any issues. That part is pretty automatic, and if you complete the rest of the setup, it comes together by itself with no issues from my side. What makes it nice is that we can actually start replacing on-site firewalls at this stage for the smaller clients because it does not matter if they go to a coffee shop or work from home; they are still secured by the same connection. The hops get shorter and you get better latency. We have done testing to see if it is better. One thing that we did notice with our proof of concept with our current client is that they have people connecting from the UK. When they used their previous VPN solution, uploading CAD drawings and other files to the server took a long time. They mentioned that it is much quicker on Cloudflare One's solution. I definitely believe that is part of the improved performance, and I am satisfied with that as well. What is nice about Cloudflare One is that it makes the setup easier and also easier to train technicians to maintain it. Compared to legacy systems, we do not need to get fancy firewalls in place that are costly. That is definitely also a cost-saver with Cloudflare One.

Chief Manager (Information Technology) at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees

Have built a zero trust foundation that protects customer data and reduces business risk

To improve Securiti, I would say that ultimately the IT team as well as the business team, there has to be an amalgamation of their thought process, convergence of their thoughts, objectives, aspirations for achieving the business objective of a particular organization. The way forward is to form the fusion team wherein there is a judicious mix of business and IT and both the teams understand each other's limitations and the aspirations and the common objectives. As far as needed improvements in Securiti, I would say that automation is key. If you look at the kind of huge amount of data which SOC integrated devices are generating in terms of alerts, automation or the appropriate use of AI is the way forward. That will lead to the overall improvement in the efficiency as well as the threat intelligence will be much more accurate. To my mind, automation with the augmented use of GenAI or the agentic AI solution is the way forward. I choose eight for Securiti because for it to be a nine or 10, ultimately the uptime has to be improved, it should be nearing 100%. Apart from that, there has to be more unified communication happening between various customer facing applications. These siloed applications having their own kind of security solutions implemented also have to be brought on a uniform platform. Until that happens, there is always a gap which has to be filled. The processes within the SOC, whether it is SIEM, NBAD, or your DAM, alert analysis, logs analysis, these have to be predictive analysis, and the thwarting of the cyber attacks still requires more effort.

Global Leadership Council at a tech company with 10,001+ employees

Data governance has strengthened and automation now reduces risk and manual compliance work

Varonis Platform offers key features including data discovery, data classification, data analysis, governance, user and entity behavior analysis, also known as UEBA, which helps in ransomware detection, insider threat detection, and compliance reporting. It does a lot of automation from a remediation standpoint, as well as investigation and forensics. The number one feature that makes the biggest difference for my clients is visibility into unstructured data; that is the most difficult for organizations to achieve. They do not have a good understanding of where sensitive data resides, who has access to this data, whether this access is appropriate, and how data is being used. Varonis Platform provides visibility, governance, threat detection, and automated remediation around data. Varonis Platform is a great data discovery platform that provides visibility into sensitive data estimates and how it is being used. Clients have been able to reduce excessive permissions, strengthen their compliance posture, detect insider threats, and ransomware activity, which would otherwise be difficult and manual. Varonis Platform is deployed in my clients' organizations in a combination of all types. Many clients use Varonis Platform in a largely SaaS-based model since it is a data security platform consumed in this way, and many organizations still operate hybrid environments. As far as Varonis Platform is in a position to get the data source and identify systems, it can discover and classify more secure data. Deployment in most of our clients is cloud-based, connecting to Microsoft 365, AWS, or other SaaS applications such as Salesforce. In other environments, it is a hybrid deployment with SaaS and on-premises, including file servers, NAS devices, and AD servers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The capabilities of the software are strong enough for me to do what it's supposed to do. For me, we don't need to do a lot of configuration on our site. We just enable it and monitor it."

"Cloudflare One has assisted in securing my remote workforce through a SASE solution with Cloudflare One and the Workers part, although I am not currently using the Workers component."

"Enables me to work from two locations."

"Cloudflare DDoS is better than its competitors for its security, deployment, and scalability."

"The solution has different options that can be used to differentiate DDoS attacks."

"It's the endpoint exposition. We don't need to expose our VPN server to the internet and need a zero-test solution. I can apply some conditional access to the endpoint that's connecting to our network to check their security policies or the security condition of their workstation. Once the workstation is trying to connect to my internal network, then I would like to check the discrete condition of these endpoints that are trying to access my internal network. We created some conditional access. We have CrowdStrike, to check if the CrowdStrike is installed, to check if it's updated, and to check for Windows updates. We created some conditional policies to check it."

"Cloudflare is simple to use."

"The best feature is rate limiting. If I'm expecting 500 visits per hour, Cloudflare will limit the requests if I suddenly get 50,000."

More Cloudflare One pros

"Their data discovery is a fantastic product."

"I would recommend Securiti to others with challenges like obtaining human resources for timely classification."

"The drag-and-drop features make Securiti easy to use, even for individuals who are not tech-savvy."

"The quality of the learning that Securiti offers, especially considering that the courses are free, is incredible."

"It's very scalable. I would rate it ten out of ten for scalability."

"The initial setup is easy."

"The process mapping is a good tool. We have a nice view of their data."

"With that kind of high availability and the continuous threat exposure management, CTEM, we are quite sure and we have proved our worth to the business in implementing the cyber security solutions."

More Securiti pros

"Varonis Platform has positively impacted my organization by providing clarity regarding data and permissions, improving visibility, security, and compliance."

"The solution has significantly improved data security and compliance posture by allowing us to track and monitor activities. We can see who accesses data and when files are created and understand what's happening in our environment."

"There's also a 90-day policy where if a user is not using the warehouse, it will automatically delete that username."

"Technical support from Varonis is rated as nine out of ten."

"I also appreciate the reporting feature, which allows for the extraction of various reports based on specific needs. These reports can be used for audit purposes, such as tracking changes in file locations or deletions."

"The most important feature is remediation. In remediation support, there is no group permission. We'll go ahead and remediate the access from the Dell folder to the parent folder."

"Varonis Platform's visibility feature helped us improve our data governance as we created a process that involved data classification and discovery over sensitive content."

"Varonis Platform support has been amazing throughout every step that we have taken with them."

More Varonis Platform pros

Cons

"The onboarding process can be improved a little bit."

"Our customers no longer use Cloudflare because its service is subpar."

"Cloudflare One is not very powerful, but for what we require, it is basic and sufficient."

"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform needs to improve its documentation. It took time to do the implementation."

"Feedback could be enhanced. While I work efficiently with Clover as a partner in Mexico City, sometimes the information and requests are easier to manage with more concrete solutions."

"The initial onboarding was causing us some confusion."

"Automation could be improved where you can easily add a TLS and SSL certificate to an application or web app if the developer did not include it."

"Feedback could be enhanced."

More Cloudflare One cons

"Fraud prevention could be improved. If a criminal accesses my system and obtains my information, they might commit fraud."

"Technical support needs enhancement. It would be helpful to have better documentation and more accessible support, especially when raising support tickets."

"I choose eight for Securiti because for it to be a nine or 10, ultimately the uptime has to be improved, it should be nearing 100%."

"Technical support can be hit or miss. Some technical staff are great, but others are not very effective. On average, I would rate the technical support four out of ten."

"The scalability of Securiti is not high because we have to customize the solution. It is very complicated to scale, so it needs improvement."

"One limitation of Securiti is that it can only classify about 30% to 40% of my data."

"I could see that in an environment where we had a lot of information, sometimes it was a little slow with Securiti, so I believe they could improve by making the solution faster in big environments."

"While the software is functionally robust and intuitive, there is a challenging learning curve."

More Securiti cons

"One area for improvement is the calculation engine. When applying rules in Varonis, especially for large datasets (terabytes of data), the calculations can be slow and require time to process. Speeding up this process would be beneficial."

"I'd like to see automatic updates for this solution. Currently, it's a manual process to update all the keywords."

"The GUI should be more functional. There should be a process for connecting through Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc."

"It would be beneficial if the reporting in Varonis Platform could use PDFs instead of Excel for better graphs, as the dashboards are really good, and it would be nice to have simplified dashboards in PDF for business reporting purposes."

"We have Microsoft Office 365. I just saw an article today which says that they're actually getting integrated with Microsoft Office 365, which would be a useful feature. For user-based reports, log on activity, and stuff like that, it doesn't seem to really be present like Log360. That could just be my inexperience with it. I've been dealing with it for only about two and a half months."

"There is one thing that if I add something manually, I get so many alerts. That's the biggest bad thing."

"I would like it to have cloud integration."

"While Varonis Platform is powerful, the initial data scanning and indexing can take significant time in large environments."

More Varonis Platform cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The prices are slightly expensive."

"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform's pricing is good."

"The solution's pricing lacks transparency."

"The pricing is somewhere in the middle. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten."

"The price tag is no longer $200,000, but rather $300,000 to $400,000. It's twice."

"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There are no hidden charges apart from the licensing costs of the solution."

"The solution is not that expensive."

"The pricing of the solution is cheap. The licensing cost is also very low. I rate the cost and pricing a three out of ten."

Information not available

"Varonis Platform wasn't certainly the cheapest solution."

"The platform is expensive. I rate the pricing a nine out of ten."

"The pricing is good. It neither expensive nor cheap. It is average."

"I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being the most expensive."

"Licensing is on an annual basis. Maintenance and renewal fees are separate. Varonis Datalert is quite expensive."

"It's expensive, kind of, really expensive."
