We performed a comparison between Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP and Rapid7 Metasploit based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The two most valuable features for us are the central firewall administrator and the real-time cloud compliance monitoring."
"The solution has intelligence that integrates with a range of threat intelligence feeds, including Check Point's ThreatCloud, to provide real-time intelligence on emerging threats."
"Alerts of cloud activity happening across all accounts is helpful."
"We know the vulnerability in advance, so we can take some action for that vulnerability."
"I can take proactive actions based on an alert without having to interact with the platform directly."
"The ability to integrate it with Microsoft Azure Sentinel allows us to validate the logs in an even more complex and meaningful way."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is the training."
"Dome9 continues to be a major piece of our cloud security architecture and has given our senior leadership team a high degree of confidence in our ability to protect our cloud environment."
"It's not possible to do penetration testing without being very proficient in Metasploit."
"The solution is open source and has many small targetted penetration tests that have been written by many people that are useful. You can choose different subjects for the test, such as Oracle databases or Apache servers."
"The Search Engineering feature is good."
"All of the features are great."
"The most valuable feature for us is the support for testing Linux-based web server components."
"The option to generate phishing emails has proven to be very valuable in understanding the behavior of users."
"I don't have any other tools like it, and I always use it when I'm doing a pen test. Metasploit is a great solution for penetration testing,"
"The most valuable features of the solution are the scripts, the modules, and the tools that the Rapid7 Metasploit framework has."
"It should have some options to activate API calls to the platform in the cloud, another improvement would be that when the rules are colonized and they want to be published."
"We're looking for a solution that can incorporate legacy infrastructure for some of our business needs."
"The tool should incorporate more use cases like improving security scores. It should also improve documentation."
"The software configurations theory is complicated, and without proper planning and a well-skilled technical team, it cannot perform its tasks properly."
"Especially with cloud security, there's too much clutter on the screen and too many things going on."
"I would like an interface more adapted to cell phones or tablets."
"The main issue that we found with Dome9 is that we have a default rule set with better recommendations that we want to use. So, you do a clone of that rule set, then you do some tweaks and customizations, but there is a problem. When they activate the default rule set with the recommendations and new security measures, it doesn't apply the new security measures to your clones profile. Therefore, you need to clone the profile again. We are already writing a report to Check Point."
"There are opportunities for improvement that can be addressed through a roadmap."
"The solution should improve the responsiveness of its live technical support."
"Better automation capabilities would be an improvement."
"The solution is not very scalable, it does not provide any automation to be able to scale it."
"I would like to see more capabilities, more functions, and more features. More types of attack vectors."
"There are numerous outdated exploits in their database that should be updated."
"I think areas with shortcomings that need improvement are more integration and automation."
"The initial setup was a bit "tweaky" for the open-source version."
"Metasploit cannot be installed on a machine with an antivirus."
