Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Policies are very easy to manage on a day-to-day basis.""Key features are the Software Vulnerability Assessment and the CSM, which is the configuration check."

More CloudPassage Pros →

"What's most valuable in Skyhigh Security is its level of security. Another valuable feature of the solution is threat analysis.""Tokenization.""It help us monitor high risk services, blocking them, and also feeding them to our egress points.""The feature I like best about Skyhigh Security is its wide range of product support. For example, my company had NetApp storage running, and Skyhigh Security has on-premises NetApp storage support, which isn't available in other solutions. Skyhigh Security also has a better filtering feature versus the filtering feature in other solutions.""Shadow IT reporting capabilities.""The stability is the most valuable feature. We haven't had any issues with the product.""It gives us visibility into how the data is being used within our cloud environment.""Good anti-virus filtering, URL categorization, and reporting capabilities."

Cons
"Anything outside of the software vulnerability management and the CSM, things like the GhostPort, need some improvement. The dashboard is in beta. It looks really good, I wish it would come out of beta.""In the CSM module the policies are really hard to work with it. It is not very flexible at all. I would suggest that they change that. Right now, the scan is based on the group that the server is in. What happens if the server is in multiple groups?""Of all the advertised functions, I only find two things that really work in my environment, even though I wanted to use all of them. They're not flexible enough to be used.""The reports and graphs are unintuitive."

More CloudPassage Cons →

"Though the Skyhigh Dashboard is processing large amounts of data, the speed of the Dashboard could be improved.""The solution is hard to configure, our team does not have specific training requirements for McAfee making it difficult.""There isn't really any aspect that is lacking.""The performance of the tool can be improved to provide faster report generation.""The tool could improve flexibility with the creation of reports/querying data.""SkyHigh has the ability to place users or groups on a ‘Watchlist’; which allows you to see certain views with these Watchlists users/groups in them. This is great when you are looking at live data but if I wanted to generate a report on "only" the watchlists.""Skyhigh Security, as a product, is excellent, but in terms of the right services and support, those are lagging very much, for example, in Trellix. From one hundred, its score has gone down to ten, so ten out of one hundred, otherwise, it's the number one product.""One thing that can be improved is their ability to integrate with other web proxies to discover unsanctioned IP apps."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We also evaluated VMware NSX, but the pricing and features available in a CloudPassage implementation were decisive in deciding to go with CP."
  • "CloudPassage is a little bit on the expensive side. So my suggestion is that the company lower its price point a wee bit or sell modules, separate them in modules, because I only find two things that are useful to me, yet I pay for four or five modules. It didn't seem like it was a fair deal."
  • More CloudPassage Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Skyhigh provided a FedRAMP solution, tokenization, a better shadow IT capability, and lower cost."
  • "The biggest thing to watch for is the difference in price per monitored user for the different API integrations."
  • "Have a risk-based approach towards pricing."
  • "They definitely charge a huge amount. All the security service providers charge a huge amount."
  • "The licensing fees are based on what environments you are monitoring."
  • "This is an expensive product, but you have to compare that with other solutions that are on the market."
  • "This is an expensive product, although it is made for larger enterprises and not for small organizations."
  • "The price of the solution is good and we pay an annual license."
