"When you import all the assets that you have, like desktops, servers, networks, devices, routers, and then firewalls, and other products, then Skybox makes like, a model of the network, but with context. So, it is not just a model in VIZIO. Or something like it like that. You get the model with context, and, like, it looks like a real network in a real-time. So you can check your network and the security of your network on that model."
"The product's most valuable feature is vulnerability management."
"The revalidation and policy recertifications are most valuable."

"The current interface doesn't scale that well, and has some screens still in the old layout."
"Initially, there was a lot of hiccups, because there were a lot of transitions due to manual installations."
"Some aspects of the administration need improvement, though they have recently made improvements to the API. However, the management with the interface and configuration are not so user-friendly. It has not changed much during all the years that CyberArk has been on the market. The management part, like platform management as well as PSM connectors definition and management, could be improved, even if it has already been done with the API."
"I would like to see better automation in granting access, better tools, more efficient tools, to be able to customize the solution that CyberArk provides."
"The interface on version 9 looks old."
"The price could be cheaper."
"The most recent update was not tested with all of the vendors before it was released, so some of the features are misbehaving."
"The stability is something that is questionable. I don't know whether it is because of the kind of infrastructure we have or because of the product in itself. We're running it on a virtual machine right now. Maybe once a month, or once in every 45 days, it requires a restart because the application fails to connect. So I have to restart the whole Skybox Manager itself, the Skybox server itself, and then connect to it from our Skybox Manager."
"The support could be improved."
"Skybox Security Suite's attack surface management feature needs improvement."
"It's expensive."
"The solution needs to move improve its interface to a full web browser version that is more accessible and doesn't require installation for use."
