We performed a comparison between Cisco Secure Network Analytics and Corelight based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Traffic Analysis (NTA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Ease of deployment, once you get your ducks in a row."
"The most valuable features of this solution are its reporting and mitigation capabilities."
"The feature most valuable for us is to gain visibility of what is actually floating through, so we can stop it based on whether it's good or bad traffic."
"Overall, the implementation is very good."
"The deployment was a breeze. It is a very innovative and robust platform that allows us to bi-directionally stitch together data elements from Netflow-enabled devices to provide a context for network utilization."
"It's easy to set up. The deployment takes one or two days. You need to collect the data from a device and then direct it to the portal."
"Provides easily identifiable anomalies that you can't see with signature detections."
"The ability to send data flow from other places and have them all in one place is very valuable for us."
"Corelight is easy to use."
"It's an easy way for us to get visibility in a client's environment."
"It's easy to create additional dashboards specific to supporting specific tasks."
"It is easy to deploy and easy to handle."
"The most valuable feature is the embedded IDS from Suricata."
"I would like Cisco to make it easier for the administrators to use it."
"We need to be able to filter out internal IPs as non-threats."
"Cisco Stealthwatch can improve by having bundled packages for popular add-ons. It would be a lot easier for people implementing it, have let's say a better way to use the product."
"We've run into some issues with the configuration."
"Some of our customers find this solution to be a little bit tough because they don't understand how to configure and use it."
"One update that I would like to see is an agent-based client. Currently, Stealthwatch is network-based. A local agent could help manage endpoints."
"We haven't seen ROI."
"The overall visibility into the actual device itself would be helpful. I don't just want support-specific data, but also to be able to see information such as CPU and other internal components or usage of the devices."
"The solution’s architecture is complex and difficult to understand. There are multiple machines and VMs."
"Corelight hasn’t added features in a long time."
"Machine learning could be a good improvement, but it's very costly."
"They can enhance the interface of the product. They can make it more interactive and also easier to use for feature access."
"In the next release, building a graphical user interface would be helpful."
