We used the solution as a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. It detected threats, and the team managing our services took care of it. We did not face any major challenges or attacks, and memory utilization was minimal. It functioned very well.

It's an alternative to CrowdStrike with respect to MITRE comparisons. In terms of anti-malware and anti-malicious behavior, Cynet does at least as well, and if you believe MITRE, it can do better than CrowdStrike. 

It also comes with automated response and SIEM/SOC, which I'm not sure CrowdStrike has. I think they might have to get all that extra, and Cynet is a bit cheaper.

My clients have used Cynet since it is a very automated solution with excellent detection capabilities. Currently, I do not have clients who are actively using Cynet, however, I am in the process of finding customers for this solution.

As a reseller I have not used it in my own organization. We have SMB customers in retail and manufacturing, mostly with Microsoft-oriented IT landscapes, but also a few large financials and some (semi-)governmental organizations, all with complex hybrid IT landscapes. Cynet adapts easily to these different scenarios, and this is valid for the XDR software platform as well as for the included CyOps 24/7 SOC service.

I have certain requirements for our customers, like they want to have visibility over their network, and they don't want multiple solutions for agent patching and protecting the endpoints. My customers want a unified solution that meets the aforementioned requirements.

We use Cynet for deception, and it helps us with our customers.

Cynet is an AutoXDR, and our customers are using it for that. Using one license, end users get all the features to protect the endpoint. The features include NTA, UBA, NGAV, EDR, and MDR, among others.

It's at present divided up into: Protector (Prevention, Detection & Operation); Responder (Automated Investigation & Response) and Correlator (Log Management & Event Correlation) and 24/7 MDR. I'm seeing the Correlator as a move towards offering SIEM capability.

It is being used for continuous protection. It is used as old standard antivirus and next-generation anti-malware using behavior and analytics. It provides defense against zero-days and living-off-the-land attacks.

I am absolutely up-to-date in terms of its version.

The solution is typically installed on endpoints. It offers many use cases. This is the great thing about this solution. We're focused on helping large enterprise systems or larger enterprise organizations that have a small support staff - and small support staff is the common denominator across both of these organizations out here now. Large or small, Cynet provides a lot of capabilities that reduce the need for full-time employees, if you don't have the bandwidth for them.

The main use case is just dealing with flat bounced zero-day threats. Clients typically migrate to older solutions. They can catch threats better. The solution is easy to manage and protects them. That's really what most of them want. A lot of the clients I deal with them are in the SMB space. Typically, they don't have anything too robust to begin with. They're just looking for something to get them to the next step, and this solution is perfect for that.
