Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."It is extremely stable, and can expand as per our needs due to its stability."
"The solution is very good at preventing intrusions. You can definitely rely on this solution to cover your security."
"The dashboard is very simple. It has an easy to use interface."
"We use it to protect files and to prevent users from browsing them while they are being used."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the security aspects."
"The biggest thing, for us lately, has been their cloud tools. They're like Intercept X from Sophos, where they'll test for ransomware. Fortinet has the same sort of set up with their cloud devices. So your firewall picks up something suspicious, it sends it up to the cloud for analysis. We also have their in-house antivirus. Having different antivirus checkpoints throughout the network is a good thing as well."
"Robust modules can be used for different parts of network security."
"I think that compliance checks and policy compliance are the product's good features."
"It's very supportive and very user-friendly."
"Skybox deployment is simple, and it's very useful."
"Skybox allows organizations to reprioritize the vulnerability they attempt to patch and mitigate, based on the contextual awareness of the network."
"The most impressive feature is optimization and clean-up."
"Change Manager is most important because of the impact on each other of a network change or a firewall change. We want to understand this and to know, beforehand, what the impact of a change will be. We are a large network so that is a very important tool."
"This type of tool does a great job of reaching into those other devices producing risk recommendations, compliance recommendations, and a single plane of glass to do your queries, so you can find where these rules might exist."
"We had some issues trying to fix some critical bugs, such as the SSL encryption."
"I'm an old-school guy. I really don't like web GUI interfaces. They're always slow and laggy and their design is restricted, whereas a binary deployment for an admin tool is always faster, easier, more flexible. I would like that kind of functionality from Fortinet."
"Some use case analyses could be improved."
"The pricing of this solution is a little bit on the high side and can be improved."
"They need to improve the web filter to make it more user-friendly."
"I would like better APIs and integration with other products, like Python and SQL."
"They are not satisfied with the complexity of the solution and the price."
"Skybox should improve their UX features by making them easier to use."
"There is room for improvement in the technical support."
"The only place where Skybox has room for improvement, and they're working on releasing this, it's just a slow-go, is the UI. The user interface has historically been via a locally installed thick client. They are moving to a web-based console and it's slowly coming out."
"The price could be cheaper."
"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."
"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 setup documentation needs a lot of improvement."
