We performed a comparison between Cisco Secure Network Analytics and Trend Micro Deep Discovery based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Monitoring Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We can manage the entire system across the network and troubleshoot the pain points."
"Provides easily identifiable anomalies that you can't see with signature detections."
"It has definitely helped us improve our mean time to resolution on network issues."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"StealthWatch lets me see the ports running in and out and the country. It has excellent reporting, telemetry, and artificial intelligence features. With the telemetry, I can set thresholds to detect sudden changes and the alarms go through the PLC parts. I can see all the ports running on that trunk."
"Cisco Secure Network Analytics has increased the visibility of what is happening in our network, and I think that's the most important reason to use it. We can see what is really happening instead of just looking at numbers from routers or switches."
"Able to drill down into a center's utilization, then create reports based on it."
"I value the feature which enables me to detect devices talking to suspect IPs."
"It has improved our internal knowledge of what's going on with the network, and that's helpful."
"The most valuable features are monitoring for advanced persistent threats, the system runs in a sandbox allowing for effective zero-day exploits management, and the Inspector has a built-in sandbox."
"The most valuable feature is that the user can customize images of virtual machines in the sandbox functionality. The other vendors only use images that were created by the vendor but not the customer, end-user or partner. This helps to detect advanced threats and attacks."
"The platform provides all essential features for discovery and administration."
"I like the sales operations testing. and support."
"Initial setup is easy. It can be done by yourself."
"The solution has extension-based features that help it to analyze the environment. The environment can have different platforms like Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool will give a report which can confirm the analysis of the issues. You can also get clear information on threats or suspicious files."
"It is a very good solution. It is very light, and it is quite quick to figure out the problem in your network."
"There is no downtime or server vulnerability with this solution."
"The Wi-Fi side needs improvement."
"Initially, I felt Cisco Secure Network Analytics lacked integration with Splunk."
"Cisco Stealthwatch can improve by having bundled packages for popular add-ons. It would be a lot easier for people implementing it, have let's say a better way to use the product."
"I would like to see interoperability with other Cisco products because we have ThousandEyes, Cisco Prime, and others. The interaction among these is important to us."
"I would like to see some improvement when it comes to reporting."
"We determined that Stealthwatch wouldn't provide the machine learning model that we required."
"Cisco could improve the administration for the customers."
"If they can make this product more web-based, that would be amazing."
"Stealthwatch is still maturing in AI. It uses artificial intelligence for predictions, but AI still needs to mature. It is in a phase where you get 95% correct detection. As its AI engine learns more, it will become more accurate. This is applicable to all the devices that are using AI because they support both supervised and unsupervised machine learning. The accuracy in the case of supervised machine learning is dependent on the data you feed into the box. The accuracy in the case of unsupervised machine learning is dependent on the algorithm. The algorithm matures depending on retrospective learning, and this is how it is able to detect zero-day attacks."
"I would like the ability to analyze all files in our internal network, at the same time on different operating systems. Not just three of them, but as many as possible."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery's technical support could be improved, and it could be made more active."
"I would like to see them create a rule where It could integrate with the network and start mitigating with auto-detection."
"The solution needs to be able to integrate better with third-party infrastructure."
"The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only."
"The solution could be more stable and offer more security."
"The scalability is sometimes limited."
"The product's scalability feature needs to be improved, as it is an area in the product with certain shortcomings."
