Featured Reviews

Andrew W - PeerSpot reviewer
Tells us about vulnerabilities as well as their impact and helps to focus on real issues
Looking at all the different pieces, it has got everything we need. Some of the pieces we do not even use. For example, we do not have Kubernetes Security. We are not running any K8 clusters, so it is good for us. Overall, we find the solution to be fantastic. There can be additional education components. This may not be truly fair to them because of what the product is going for, but it would be great to see additional education for compliance. It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background.
Santiago Gomez - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved the organization's PCI compliance with data loss prevention
I use the solution on a Macintosh computer and it has issues and does not work when I try to log in from the Safari Browser, but it works fine when I log in from the Google Chrome browser. The console has issues when the login is done through a Safari Browser. The console has to be more competitive and the compatibility of the browser needs to be better. I want to know about Skyhigh's competitiveness with other brands and about the vulnerability assessment and micro segmentations. I know Skyhigh has other products, but right now, I am studying what this new product is about. They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support.
Ondrej Kováč - PeerSpot reviewer
Has vulnerability detection, software composition analysis and asset management features
Due to its robust nature, the platform's adoption can be overwhelming initially. However, once organizations start using it, they tend to get used to it. I haven't had much direct interaction with the support team, but some partners have reported a desire for better support for the product. Another area needing improvement is the implementation complexity, especially in multi-cloud environments. Tenable Cloud Security's features mean there's a steep learning curve, which can consume significant time and resources to utilize the platform's potential and fully see immediate benefits. It's similar to AI in that you must spend time fine-tuning and training before it truly helps.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cloud Native Security offers attack path analysis."
"The most valuable features of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security are cloud misconfiguration, Kubernetes, and IaC scanning."
"The most valuable feature is the notification system, providing real-time alerts and comparisons crucial for maintaining security."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's integration is smooth. They are highly customer-oriented, and the integration went well for us."
"The cloud misconfiguration feature and Offensive Security Engine, as well as their alerting process, are valuable."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers comprehensive security posture management."
"Singularity Cloud Workload Security provides us with better security detection and more visibility. It is another resource that we can use to detect vulnerabilities in our company's systems. For example, it can help us detect new file processes that we are not familiar with, which could be used by attackers to exploit our systems. Singularity Cloud Workload Security can also help us diagnose and analyze data to determine whether it is malicious or not. Singularity Cloud Workload Security is like another pair of eyes that can help us protect our systems from cyberattacks."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security is better than other vendors because we get all the cloud-related, data center-related information."
"They were very, very aggressive in the market to get a new market share or to take over market share while other companies were being broken up."
"The management is very good."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"The solution significantly helps in enhancing security management."
"It's a great product with solid features."
"I personally don't have any issues with the performance or the stability of the solution."
"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."
"It's an easy-to-use product."
"The key benefit lies in having the largest and most up-to-date database. When it comes to using any Tenable product, it excels in finding vulnerabilities and providing analytics."
"The product's deployment phase is easy."
"Ermetic can provide super visibility for our cloud environment (we are using AWS)."
"Tenable Cloud Security excels in vulnerability detection, one of its strongest features. Another valuable feature is software composition analysis, which highlights and automates the detection of security flaws. Additionally, their knowledge base is excellent; if anything goes wrong, they provide clear guidance on what needs to be done to address specific vulnerabilities."
"The product's visibility and remediation work fine for me."
"The tool alerts us on depreciating performance or deficiencies of our web application. It helps us react on time."
"Scanning and reporting are the most valuable features of Tenable Cloud Security"
"The solution’s vulnerability management feature has helped us identify and mitigate risks well."
 

Cons

"It is not a criticism of the tool per se, but anything to help non-development resources understand some of the complexities of the cloud is always appreciated. Any additional educational resources are always helpful for security teams, especially those without a development background."
"It would be really helpful if the solution improves its agent deployment process."
"SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security's current documentation could be improved to better assist customers during the cluster onboarding process."
"They can add more widgets to its dashboard. A centralized dashboard with numerous metrics would improve user understanding."
"We can customize security policies but lack auditing capabilities."
"From my personal experience, the alerting system needs to be faster. If something happens in our infrastructure, the alert appears on the dashboard, but I have to log in to the dashboard and refresh it."
"The application module focuses on the different codes and libraries that can be run on the machines. It is very important for Singularity EDR to detect what type of codes and what type of libraries can run in the machine. If they can implement a white list or a black list of codes or libraries that can be used in the machine, it would be very helpful. They can focus more on the application module."
"Sometimes the Storyline ID is a bit wacky."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The solution is hard to configure, our team does not have specific training requirements for McAfee making it difficult."
"Its initial setup could be more straightforward."
"Support for securing more cloud apps."
"The cloud needs improvement with respect to DLP."
"The services take some time to load. It would be helpful if the loading time was reduced."
"Though the Skyhigh Dashboard is processing large amounts of data, the speed of the Dashboard could be improved."
"They could be integrated with CASB. I think normally McAfee has this solution in the cloud, but for us the best is on-premise."
"If Tenable Cloud Security offers a complete Cnapp solution with CWP, CIEM, and Waap security, it will be able to compete with other competitors."
"Due to its robust nature, the platform's adoption can be overwhelming initially. However, once organizations start using it, they tend to get used to it. I haven't had much direct interaction with the support team, but some partners have reported a desire for better support for the product."
"There is a need for the support team to improve their response time since it is one of the areas where the product's technical team has certain shortcomings."
"The product must provide more features."
"I didn't find anything that wasn't useful or needed to be added."
"Ermetic needs to improve its security scanning. I would like to see more dynamic graphical forms."
"I have faced several bug incidents with the solution"
"Tenable needs to offer a patch-based solution since it is an area where the tool lacks a bit."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PingSafe is priced reasonably for our workload."
"The pricing is fair. It is not inexpensive, and it is also not expensive. When managing a large organization, it is going to be costly, but it meets the business needs. In terms of what is out there on the market, it is fair and comparable to what I have seen, so I do not have any complaints about the cost"
"I am not involved in the pricing, but it is cost-effective."
"While I'm slightly out of touch with pricing, I know SentinelOne is much cheaper than other products."
"It is cost-effective compared to other solutions in the market."
"It's a fair price for what you get. We are happy with the price as it stands."
"Singularity Cloud Workload Security's licensing and price were cheaper than the other solutions we looked at."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security offers robust protection, its high cost may be prohibitive for small and medium-sized businesses."
"The biggest thing to watch for is the difference in price per monitored user for the different API integrations."
"It's an expensive solution."
"There is a license required to use this solution and it is paid annually. The price is reasonable."
"The tool is not expensive."
"The licensing fees are based on what environments you are monitoring."
"This is an expensive product, but you have to compare that with other solutions that are on the market."
"There is an annual licensing cost to use McAfee Web Gateway. The purchasing of licensing can be difficult for the government sector."
"Pricing for Skyhigh Security is fine."
"The tool's price is good compared to other brands. The tool's subscription is for a year."

"There is a need to opt for a subscription-based pricing model to use Tenable Cloud Security. I rate the product price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
