Find out what your peers are saying about VMware, Akamai, Cisco and others in Cloud and Data Center Security."Initially, I liked the telemetry part. But later, we used the microsegmentation features that we were able to deploy and found that they really stood out from other vendors. It allows us to see microsegmentation as distributed services."
"That is primarily because I've seen increased rules. It's kind of caught us a little off guard. With GuardiCore, I have had to deal with their technical support and engineering team in Israel. They are amazing. They are very quick to adapt."
"The most valuable feature is the visibility of processes and connections."
"Its deception features are great, providing a rich telemetry of lured origins, and are a great resource for any active defense strategy."
"The solution is very scalable, especially when connected to the cloud resources."
"Guardicore Centra offers the best coverage specifically in backward compatibility with legacy operating systems."
"This tool greatly helps in understanding the footprint of the attacks."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the maps and ring fencing that help monitor events."
"It has helped the organization to detect any malware affecting the machines...The network monitoring and the email monitoring features are very valuable for us."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it does not require human intervention to eliminate a threat."
"I have used multiple solutions, but its graphical user interface is quite interesting and quite descriptive. There are a lot of video animations, and we can easily see how the data is transferred between various points. That's something really interesting. It is also quite easy to understand for a new user."
"Provides great network protection."
"One thing I appreciate is Antigena Email, which is for email protection."
"The platform has many modules, and each module examines a different situation in the behavior."
"It is a very simple product to use."
"I find the complete portfolio to be excellent."
"Incident tagging could be improved. Other vendors offer semi-automatic tagging, which Guardicore doesn't yet have."
"Guardicore Centra should incorporate automation so that we don't require to write custom scripts and APIs. The tool also has limitations on rules where it allows only sixty thousand rules. Our clients have also commented that there are too many manual clicks and effort to do changes. I think that the incorporation of automation can help our clients make changes with confidence and without the possibility of human error."
"The dashboard needs improvement. It should be more flexible so that I can easily see what I want or need to see."
"Customers would want to see the cost improved."
"Supports become difficult when it's for a big organization. For a small organization, medium organization, it still makes sense, however, for a big organization, it makes life difficult."
"Needs more customization of honeypots and a vaster catalog of systems able to be mimicked."
"Clients would like to see that the security policies of GuardiCore can continue to be comparable to all the major firewall players out there."
"It doesn't support a PAAC solution (Platforma as a service) in the cloud."
"The product doesn't have an endpoint agent that can react to triggers set on the device,"
"The level of tracking within the network from the transmission level up to the machine level can use improvement."
"This product needs more in terms of prevention. The detection capabilities work well but once a threat has been detected, Darktrace should work to prevent it from doing anything malicious."
"Darktrace could improve its features, such as monitoring and detecting ransomware."
"I would like to see some additional enhancements."
"The module can improve so that every time it's more intelligent."
"The user interface and the configuration are a bit complex and should be improved or simplified."
"I'd love them to see maybe covering the cloud a bit more."
