We performed a comparison between Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP and Skybox Security Suite 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."Overall, it provides good security."
"Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP's initial configuration is very easy. It is plug-and-play. It also gives regular updates."
"People implementing this solution are concerned with addressing a significant risk, and within the AWS realm, this tool does de-risk substantially."
"It provides the most useful tools for protecting our financial account records from hackers."
"The two most valuable features for us are the central firewall administrator and the real-time cloud compliance monitoring."
"The ability to integrate it with Microsoft Azure Sentinel allows us to validate the logs in an even more complex and meaningful way."
"It offers a range of features tailored to address the unique security challenges."
"The various CNAPP modules have granted more visibility of our cloud applications to our system engineers and developers."
"The most valuable features are the rule compliance and the OS vulnerability checks."
"It has a good policy management feature and can provide customers with good quality outputs."
"The solution's simplicity of use is its most valuable feature."
"It's very supportive and very user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature is firewall management."
"The most valuable features are Firewall Assurance and Vulnerability Control."
"We are currently working on rule review and compliance. The logging features are good."
"The revalidation and policy recertifications are most valuable."
"The price of this solution should be reduced so that it is more affordable to scale."
"Automatic remediation requires read/write access. When providing read/write access to third-party applications, this can add risk. It should have some options of triggering API calls to the cloud platform, which in turn, can make the required changes."
"The dashboard customization has room for improvement."
"Reporting should have more options."
"You do need to pay extra in order to get better support."
"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."
"Adding a feature that allows me to easily identify the changes that have been made to the CIS benchmark and update my own policy accordingly would be a valuable addition to Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management."
"I would like an interface more adapted to cell phones or tablets."
"The cloud site could be better. They should provide some use cases to help users."
"The support could be improved."
"The most recent update was not tested with all of the vendors before it was released, so some of the features are misbehaving."
"The primary room for improvement would be to enable a web interface, which is not something which is there in the product. This is supposed to have come a year, a year and a half ago, but still has failed to come out. It still needs a client application to be installed on a workstation to be able to access that server and then run these reports. So I cannot extend that access to anybody. It has to be one administrator all the time. So unlike a web interface, where you can give multiple users simultaneous access and generate the various reports, that isn't a possibility at the moment."
"The only place where Skybox has room for improvement, and they're working on releasing this, it's just a slow-go, is the UI. The user interface has historically been via a locally installed thick client. They are moving to a web-based console and it's slowly coming out."
"If anything could be improved it would be staying on top of the collector scripts, but I understand that's a very tough challenge."
"The solution needs to add more automation and orchestration capabilities. Those features would make the solution much stronger."
"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."
