We performed a comparison between Skybox Security Suite and Tenable Security Center 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."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 product's most valuable feature is vulnerability management."
"The most valuable features are Firewall Assurance and Vulnerability Control."
"It shows me a client's or an organization's entire network. I can see everything."
"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."
"Skybox deployment is simple, and it's very useful."
"The most impressive feature is optimization and clean-up."
"The most valuable features in Tenable SC are scanning and analysis."
"I found the dashboard features very useful. It made it easy to track remediation progress. I could publish dashboards to remediation teams and track the progress on the dashboards."
"Feature-wise, Tenable Security Center is a very fast tool with many dashboards and reports, and it covers all our systems."
"The predictive prioritization features are pretty good. They do a lot of research and we trust the research that they do internally. They have knowledge of what's going on with many companies, where we only get a view into what's going on here. So the ability to get best practices out of them as part of this solution, is valuable to us."
"We really love the Security Center dashboard. It basically performs vulnerability scanning and then outputs a vulnerability data."
"I think that this is a good solution for evaluating vulnerability in the network."
"The tool provides us insight into the happens of the network and its hosts. It provides me with a list of hosts."
"The scans are the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"If anything could be improved it would be staying on top of the collector scripts, but I understand that's a very tough challenge."
"There is room for improvement in the technical support."
"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."
"The solution needs to add more automation and orchestration capabilities. Those features would make the solution much stronger."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. It would be better, especially if a customer bought all four modules."
"There are multiple dashboards but no custom dashboard. It would be good to include a custom dashboard so that we can actually choose which field and what kinds of things we want to look at."
"During implementation, we realised approximately 30 devices were not supported by the Skybox platform."
"The setup documentation needs a lot of improvement."
"If I want to have a very low-managed scan policy, it's a lot of work to create something which is very basic. If I use a tool like Nmap, all I have to do is download it, install it, type in the command, and it's good to go. In Security Center, I have to go through a lot of work to create a policy that's very basic."
"The reporting needs a lot of work on the template."
"Current web page needs improvement, slows down processes."
"Though the solution's technical support is responsive, they do take a lot of time, making it one of the solution's shortcomings that needs improvement."
"We experienced some difficulties with the solution’s support."
"The product could be user-friendly, and they could enhance the web application's security features."
"Tenable's reporting engine needs improvement. It needs to be more efficient and add more features."
"Certain aspects require manual effort, such as exporting and analyzing data for our dashboards. The built-in components of the Tenable solution are somewhat clumsy that require external tools. So, this is an area of improvement."
