We performed a comparison between Skybox Security Suite and Tufin Orchestration Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Firewall Security Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We use Network Assurance for network visualisation and troubleshooting."
"The most valuable features are the rule compliance and the OS vulnerability checks."
"The solution's simplicity of use is its most valuable feature."
"instead of asking for firewall rules which may or may not be relevant, or could already be there, or could be over-permissioned, Skybox can be used to map out the resources that that application is going to use and provide the exact rules that an application would require to function correctly. If the traffic isn't able to flow for the application, if it's erring out, Skybox can be used to troubleshoot that and say, "All right, where is the traffic being stopped and why, and how do I fix that.""
"We are currently working on rule review and compliance. The logging features are good."
"The most valuable feature is the compliance, whether it's access compliance or the configuration compliance, to make sure that all of our devices are configured as they're supposed to be, to limit access as much possible, to follow least-access guidelines."
"The solution's most valuable and unique assets are the vulnerability management and change management solutions because they identify mistakes in the network before implementation which reduces risks."
"It has a good policy management feature and can provide customers with good quality outputs."
"The solution is good, and no clients complained about it."
"Its ability to detect changes within our firewall."
"I like the fact that Tufin was able to integrate with our firewalls, which include Palo Alto and FortiGate."
"I don't think that we were ever slow, but we can now say that changes are completed within twenty-four hours."
"The reporting on offer is very good. Tufin makes nice reports."
"Our engineers save quite a bit of time that was previously spent on manual processes."
"We use Tufin to clean up our firewall policies because it is so fast. A report about compliance and the clean-up process used to take about one month up before. With Tufin, it takes only one day."
"It is very easy to use. We can get results back quickly."
"The price could be cheaper."
"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 solution was quite technical. It would be easier to manage if the solution was more specific about aspects of the solution and provided more advisory around how to use it effectively. It would help users a lot if they were more clear about everything."
"The tool does not offer options for customization."
"I've had issues with licensing where, when they were expiring and I asked for the updated licenses, I would the wrong ones. I think their process needs to be straightened out a little bit - I don't know if they fixed it already, it has been awhile. It wasn't as straightforward as it could have been."
"Skybox Security Suite can improve the change management module. It is the one part of the tool that is used with the firewall devices and you have a change management module that is used to record changes of all firewalls in the company. It's not compatible with all brands, this is where they can improve the solution."
"The most recent update was not tested with all of the vendors before it was released, so some of the features are misbehaving."
"The support could be improved."
"One of the areas that I've had challenges with is making complicated reports."
"We would like Tufin to have interoperability with Juniper products, along with official support."
"They are sort of at the pilot stage on some of their products. I saw the Orca and Iris products yesterday. My initial impression of these products were that they were good products, but I felt like some of their features overlapped with SecureTrack and SecureChange, which they are already doing. So, I just wondered what direction they're going in? I understand that they are cloud products, but are these security products going to overlap each other's features at some point? This is my initial concern."
"USP does not support VPNs, which is a big thing for us, so we haven't been able to utilize it."
"I would like to see more configuration options on next-generation firewalls, defining possible standards for devices."
"I wish there was a read-only admin option. I don't like that you have to be a full admin just to see the Network Topology Map. That option is great out there if you are a user, multi-domain user, etc. However, that piece is very helpful for us, but I also don't want to be handing out admin access to every single person so they can see that network tab."
"The hardest piece is getting the matrix built."
"We found some bugs on the software, but we're working with tech support to fix them."
