We performed a comparison between Skybox Security Suite and Tufin Orchestration Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Firewall Security Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"The solution's simplicity of use is its most valuable feature."
"The product's most valuable feature is vulnerability management."
"Correlates logs and threats and prioritizes; provides network maps;p provides change result context and resulting vulnerability."
"The solution offers very nice dashboards and they've recently added a very good Java-based web interface."
"The revalidation and policy recertifications are most valuable."
"Aside from Firewall Assurance, we are using Network Assurance and Change Manager for an overview of the whole network and for documenting requests and the recertification of the ruleset."
"It's very supportive and very user-friendly."
"Skybox deployment is simple, and it's very useful."
"The reporting on offer is very good. Tufin makes nice reports."
"It provides a great visibility around the roots: Root implementing which can be done, roots that have changed, and what has been done. So, it's pretty useful when you have an audit going on."
"The solution is quite scalable."
"We are able to stay compliant with many of the regulations."
"There are a lot of benefits to using the reporting. It gives us duplicate objects, duplicate services, shadow firewall rules, and the firewall rules not needed for a given number of days or months."
"The solution's most valuable features are its security policy and steps for deployment."
"The change workflow process is flexible and customizable. I was really impressed with it. It's pretty easy. You can add automatic validation steps. Depending on the security matrix, you can pre-allow whatever flow you want."
"I like the deployment and management of this solution."
"The cloud site could be better. They should provide some use cases to help users."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. It would be better, especially if a customer bought all four modules."
"Modifications and the deletion of existing policies are currently unavailable."
"The solution needs to move improve its interface to a full web browser version that is more accessible and doesn't require installation for use."
"Skybox Security Suite's attack surface management feature needs improvement."
"Reporting. A lot of the reports, out of the box, are limited to a certain number of either configuration violations or access rule violations. So when you first set up a new firewall to be monitored by Skybox, you don't get a real full report. You have to really tweak it to get everything."
"The support could be improved."
"I've had issues with licensing where, when they were expiring and I asked for the updated licenses, I would the wrong ones. I think their process needs to be straightened out a little bit - I don't know if they fixed it already, it has been awhile. It wasn't as straightforward as it could have been."
"The change workflow process is getting better. I wish it was a little more customizable. Right now, my biggest issue is that it wants to optimize everything we put in. Sometimes, we need a rule to be more readable, and we want it to go in a specific way. Sometimes, it's difficult to get Tufin to accept that. It wants to optimize and reduce the number of ACLs. On the compliance side, sometimes you just want more ACLs, so it's more readable for an auditor."
"We will be using the appliance based product, which cannot be scaled as much. It is a limitation in the hardware."
"I would like to see more about the cloud in the next release. They need a large plan to deploy the cloud into the solution and a way to implement it."
"With scalability, we are going to run into some issues. We have been talking about converting over to actual hardware as opposed to virtual. Therefore, I don't think we are scalable at this time, especially with the updates coming. I'm told that they're going to need a lot more horsepower to push them."
"I would like the application to have faster response times. E.g., the dashboard may take up to two minutes to load. Or, when we do the topology seating its two and a half hours. I would like to get those times down and increase the efficiency of the product there."
"I think that the interface could be cleaner, and easier to use."
"Their pricing can be better. It is not very transparent."
"The two main negative points with Tufin Orca are the absence of full support and that accommodation of files and tools is not provided in a good way."
