Cynet Reviews

This solution covers the endpoint. It protects your files, users, devices, and network significantly better than the other solutions in the market.

We are much less concerned about the new threats of attack that keep evolving and could negatively impact our data and our reputation.  For example the SolarWinds breach of December 2020; we could feel quite comfortable that the IOC's had already been incorporated into the detection and prevention engine.

The most valuable feature is the monitored support behind it. The CyOp's team remains a great partner to protect us and help us feel safer.

There has not been much that I could currently identify as major areas for improvement, experience in the US Market will come because while newer to the US market their support has been very good and the solution solid.

Functions-wise, at present the times for events are not a user's local time, but we assume that will be corrected soon. It would nice to be able to see local time zone capability. 

We have been proactively using Cynet for nine months and are using the current version. It is great to automatically get updated to the most current version without worrying about the implementation process.

It's a very stable solution and has never been down for us.

Cynet is scalable, but for us, we deal with much smaller the product can scale to. We are dealing with 50 to 100 endpoint implementations, but the solution was capable of handling 50,000 to 100,000 and even larger 250,000 plus environments with what appeared to be no issues from our discussions.

The technical support has been awesome and very responsive. We haven't had any issues.

This product is better than Carbon Black and many of the others that we considered, which seemed more limited in what areas of attack that were covered, or compared to SentinelOne there seemed to be greater transparency of information accessible with Cynet360 across the endpoint.

It was the easiest setup you could have wanted. It took maybe ten minutes  for over 100 endpoints and 5 to move devices from detection to prevention methods. 

We worked directly with Cynet and their support was awesome. The implementation was so smooth, that in the time it took for the engineer to explain the install process it had already deployed to hundreds of devices. 

It's a subscription. Our implementation is as a managed service provider. Our billing was flexible.

We did basic reviews of other solutions such as SentinelOne and CarbonBlack, but the CyOps backing for the solution was a game changer all integrated for us. Their expertise and responsiveness remains a highlight still.

I have been doing information security for 35 years and this is a product that I recommend.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

We use the product to detect email attacks, including phishing attempts and relevant vulnerabilities to our system.

The product has valuable front-end features.

There could be more customization options and detailed information provided in the reports. As a quality manager, my work profile involves implementing and ensuring compliance with ISO 27001, including detailed reports to meet internal business needs and external auditor requirements.

We have been using Cynet for three to four years.

It is a stable product.

We have 1500 Cynet users in our organization.

Perception Point is easier to use and provides more details to investigate incidents than Cynet. In comparison, Cynet doesn’t give enough information on the malicious activity to decide to block the threats.

We purchase the product’s yearly license.

I recommend Cynet for small-scale businesses and rate it an eight out of ten.

Our primary use case would be incident response.

Cynet has mostly helped with endpoint protection.

Its ability to revert back from a previous state is quite notable. This feature is particularly valuable because, for maintaining integrity, it can inspect the socket for any firewall modifications. In practice, it allows us to return to a previous configuration when everything was functioning correctly.

I like the integrity of the tool. 

There is room for improvement in terms of support. The support should be faster to respond. 

I have been using Cynet over a year.

I would rate the stability a ten out of ten. It is a very stable solution. 

I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten for Cynet. It is very scalable. We have around five end users using this solution. 

We do plan to increase the further usage of the solution. 

The customer service and support are not very good. 

Neutral

I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with one being difficult and ten being easy to set up. 

The deployment takes around an hour. 

The deployment is agent-based. You need to install agent servers, sensors, and your candidate.

You would need an IT specialist for the deployment. 

Cynet is cheaper than others, so I would rate the pricing model a two out of ten, where one is the low price, and ten is the high price. 

Cynet is a really good tool, especially for the reports and its ability to outperform other security tools. I would recommend this solution for medium and enterprise businesses. 

Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. 

Our use cases are for UBA or EDR, and we use it everywhere; in medical education, commercial residences etc. It is deployed in the cloud, on-prem, and hybrid if needed. 

A good feature is how the solution packages varied information into a single dashboard that's readable and meets our needs.

The endpoint client support is great. 

Increased application for SOAR abilities across interconnected devices would be a welcome improvement. 

I've used the solution for almost two years. 

The stability is great; we never had an issue. 

The solution is highly scalable. I have a security team of three staff members, and we support over 6000 endpoints. 

The initial setup was straightforward; it took about five minutes, and we deployed to several thousand endpoints in less than two hours.

We carried out the deployment via an in-house team. 

The solution provided an immediate return on investment. We've stopped several cyberattacks within hours, and we stopped one ongoing cyberattack within one day of deploying to a new client. 

Cynet is very affordable. 

I rate the solution nine out of ten. 

My advice to those looking to implement Cynet is to do it. 

Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management.

Cynet could improve when a reverse proxy is being used to connect to the servers. There could be an easier configuration because it is not plug-and-play. 

If I compare Cynet with Trend Micro, DDI, and DDA. Cynet does not have a deep investigation in the network. I would like to see DDI and DDA into Cynet.

I used Cynet within the last 12 months.

The stability of Cynet is very good. However, there have been some bugs but in the updates, they improve the issues.

The scalability of Cynet is good.

Technical support is offered 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The support we have received has been very good. They have English and Hebrew support.

I rate the support of Cynet a five out of ten.

I have used other solutions, such as SentinelOne, which is not a bad solution but it has too many bugs. They provide good competition against Cynet. 

The MDR internet response, in Israel, does not have any support in Hebrew. They only have support for Poland, Romania, and England.

The initial installation of Cynet is very easy because we did not do it. It's the same installation on endpoints, such as laptops, and servers, or in virtual machines.

I would rate the implementation difficulty of Cynet a three out of five.

We have the vendor do the implementation of the solution.

There is an extra cost if you want the support of Cynet.

I rate Cynet an eight out of ten.

We use it for endpoint detection and response. We also use it as a next-gen antivirus.

We have its latest version.

It is our main cybersecurity solution. It is our EDR as well as our XDR solution. It is also our antivirus system. We have had a lot of benefits. When a user clicks on a wrong link or activates a wrong macro in Excel, it has been able to stop such attacks. It has saved us a lot of recovery time.

We especially like the fact that it can stop any kind of attack. Its performance is also quite fast. There is a specific UI module that also works quite well.

The level of automation is very good because the majority of the time, it blocks the attacks without requiring anything from our side. The technicians don't have to do anything. They are just alerted about what happened. So, the user intelligence works quite well.

It is an endpoint agent, but they don't have a probe for checking the network traffic. They could improve from this point of view.

We have been using Cynet for three years.

Its performance is quite good.

They don't have any problem with scalability. They can manage 100 or 1,000 endpoints without a problem.

In our deployment, we have about 1,200 clients. We have covered all our endpoints.

We are currently using Cynet, but during this year, a lot of things can change. The new company might substitute Cynet with another solution. The new company has acquired another cybersecurity company. So, we might use another solution in the future. There is a high probability that we are going to change Cynet with an internal solution.

From a technical point of view, they have good support. We have a specific SOC service, and they are always ready to understand our situation or respond to our questions. So, their support is quite good.

Before Cynet, we had McAfee Antivirus. We changed because three years ago, we evaluated that McAfee was an old antivirus solution, whereas Cynet was a new EDR solution. It was exactly what we needed to have to improve our cybersecurity posture.

The setup is quite simple. You can have the first deployment in just two hours.

It was implemented in-house. Its maintenance involves patching. They have a new release every four months.

We have, of course, seen an ROI. The management has evaluated this solution in a good way. From the first year, everyone has evaluated its role in a good way.

It costs us 20,000 to 28,000 per year.

It is quite a complete solution. When they started three years ago, the product was not so mature. It was not so great, but last year, they added a lot of extra features. It is now complete.

Its setup is quite easy. In about two hours, you can have the first answers from your endpoint, and you can have the first understanding of your situation very quickly.

I would rate it a nine out of 10 because there is always scope for improvement.

I have found the continued support and pretty much all the features to be valuable. They all stand out as being positive. It continues to detect unusual activity when it's supposed to, and so far we haven't had any issues.

It is a very stable and scalable solution.

The price is great for all the features it offers, and the licensing is flexible.

The reporting is a little weak and could be improved. Seeing more of the threat intelligence would be a definite advantage.

The other downside is that Cynet does not use the local time zone. It's based off of Greenwich Mean Time.

In terms of stability, Cynet is very reliable.

We have approximately 109 installed end points, of which about 20 are servers, about 15 to 20 are laptops and mobile devices, and the remainder are primarily Windows-based workstations.

I have worked with other customers or with other people in other institutions that use it, and they've deployed up to 300 within very short periods of time. I've talked to others in much larger, 60,000 end point institutions, and they have had no issues with scalability.

We have worked with technical support on various topics, and they're always very responsive and get the job done within a very short period of time.

The initial setup was very simple. We put it up on over a hundred devices in less than five minutes.

Pricing wise, Cynet seems to be very competitive. The cost is probably lower than that offered by many of its competitors for all the functions and features it offers.

The licensing is very flexible. You can do it yearly, quarterly, or monthly.

Don't be afraid of it. It's a very solid solution. Be sure to take a look at it, compare it to all of the others, and then be careful to compare apples to apples when there are functions and features that it has that others do not.

I'm very happy with this solution and would have to rate it at ten on a scale from one to ten.

It is like an EDR tool. We have its latest version.

It provides good protection from ransomware and malware attacks. It is very good as compared to other products.

If any threat is there, their support is very good. They immediately respond to the users and do a follow-up. They call us and also provide email support.

Its dashboard is not so good. On the dashboard, they don't show the count for client endpoints, which is a failure of this product. This count should be shown on the dashboard. I have 1,000 clients, but I can't see it anywhere on the dashboard.

I have been using this solution for more than a year.

It is stable.

It is scalable. We have more than 1,000 users.

If any threat is there, their support is very good. 

Their regular support is just okay. Their support people are not very technical.

It is pretty easy to install. It took less than 30 seconds.

We do it ourselves. Any person with package and admin rights can do it.

Its licensing is on a monthly basis.

I would recommend this solution. I would rate Cynet a seven out of ten.
