Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."We really liked its ease of implementation against our Microsoft Azure environment."
"The CloudGuard for Cloud Intelligence tool has several significant features that provide security to our company."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is the training."
"The product enables us to check the information that goes out of the company."
"It presents a real-time database that is always updated."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to work with the APIs to integrate into our own backend systems."
"This solution has saved the company from unnecessary data loss that occurs due to cyber attacks."
"I have found the malware protection feature valuable. It is helpful and deliverable and is able to protect my entire organization from getting compromised. It also prevents us from visiting any malicious sites which are not visible to the users."
"The interface is well organized, so you can easily find everything. Even if you don't have much experience with Cisco, you can easily navigate the solution and find your way around. Everything has been done well, from the deployment to monitoring."
"The core business of Cisco Umbrella is non-malware. That's all it does: block the malware on the gateway."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to block users from reaching places that they should not even try to reach has been a boon."
"One of the most important features is the security posture check which Umbrella offers when a user accesses any website. That is one of the most unique features that it offers."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to filter malware sites that could infect clients or allow them to download infected files."
"I like the DNS layer security."
"The security and access control features."
"The software configurations theory is complicated, and without proper planning and a well-skilled technical team, it cannot perform its tasks properly."
"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."
"The support must be more effective."
"Almost all features are good, however, they still require improvements to the code security portion on which integration with the major source code repository is required."
"Check Point must provide a multi-cloud facility where AWS, Azure, and GCP can seamlessly work together and display posture in an integrated manner."
"The Check Point solution is somewhat expensive."
"Currently, this solution is somewhat expensive."
"The dashboard customization has room for improvement."
"The only thing I can think of is that I'd like to see a little more flexibility in policy creation. The way that policy is currently structured is like a "first hit succeeds" kind of policy. It would be nice if it were more hierarchical."
"If I want to see which users access a website, I need an Active Directory registered on Umbrella's cloud."
"Missing a real data leakage prevention solution."
"The pricing changes too fast. We get the license and we need to relicense it because they already made changes to it. We always need to be on top of the licenses because they're always changing."
"It would be better if there was a little bit of flexibility for organizations that don't have SD One in their environment. Because of the complexity of the environment, it's not easy to actually turn on the feature of the secure internet gateway for our users. We have not been able to explore that option yet."
"For us, as an MSP, the initial licensing changes were a roadblock, and they still could be a lot clearer. Specifically, it's an honor-based licensing system. We'd like it to be more specific to our traffic or our users so that we can make sure that the customer is paying for all their licensing."
"It had the ability to do a lot of app control. So, every single app that went through that portal was registered, but there is a general issue with the whole app control. As soon as you add a mobile phone to your network, all of the apps get registered through the system, and you can approve, reject, or just let them go through. When I looked at it, it was impossible to manage app control. There was just so much data. I didn't apply that service because I just didn't have the time to manage it. It would be good if there was a way to categorize applications."
"Security, overall, can always be improved."
