We performed a comparison between Skyhigh Security and Saviynt based on real PeerSpot user reviews in five categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Skyhigh Security is the preferred choice over Saviynt due to its wider product support range, efficient backup features, and flexibility of use. It is also considered a market leader with good protection overall, helpful technical support, and reasonable pricing. Saviynt has room for improvement in terms of functionality and stability, and its licensing is considered expensive. While Saviynt is praised for its workflows and certification features, its technical support and implementation services need improvement. Overall, Skyhigh Security offers more benefits and better value for users.
"The protection offered by the product is the most valuable feature. It detects vulnerabilities or traps on our users' phones and then prompts them to clean up their devices. Tools we used previously would only discover, which required us to gather information on the backend, so Lookout is a welcome upgrade."
"On the outside, the main differentiation is because Lookout ingest. They have ingested basically all of the apps for the last ten years and all the versions of all the apps, and we have that in a corporate database that allows us to do very large-scale machine learning and analysis on that data set. That's not something that any of the competitors really have the capability to do because they don't have access to the data set. A lot of the apps you can no longer get them because that version of the app is five or six years old, and it just doesn't exist anywhere anymore, except within our infrastructure. So, the ability to have that very rich dataset and learn from that dataset is a real differentiator."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"The feature that we use the most is the global, third-party user management."
"Considering the initial cost and the basic features, this is a good solution that provides integration with both on-premise and cloud applications."
"The product is flexible to use."
"Saviynt is easy to configure and manage."
"It gives very good and in-depth knowledge about a particular identity. Everything is through a single click. We get to know the workflows related to a particular identity with a single click."
"It is very easy to use. It addresses most of the trends in identity governance and risk management."
"Saviynt has a lot of potential with many features available for users."
"It is a flexible tool because it works on JSON."
"It help us monitor high risk services, blocking them, and also feeding them to our egress points."
"Skyhigh has given us categorization and rating of websites separate from what the web proxy places on the logs."
"The feature I found most valuable is the API."
"They were very, very aggressive in the market to get a new market share or to take over market share while other companies were being broken up."
"The stability is the most valuable feature. We haven't had any issues with the product."
"The management is very good."
"Skyhigh performs well, and we can choose from virtual and hardware plans. We can deploy the ISO on as many virtual machines as possible and easily set up high availability on the web proxy. The location doesn't matter. The user at a site will always access the web proxy for that location. It's suitable for an organization distributed across multiple regions."
"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."
"The stability depends on the service from where you access it. Because sometimes, the place you are in, you have Gateway. You don't have Gateway. The gateway is overutilized. At the end, you need to go through their gateways. And this is the key point here. You have a tracking point. If it's not well orchestrated, and it scales up as you add more to the existing team, you will suffer"
"We just submitted an enhancement request reflecting the main area we want to see improvement in; the APIs. Currently, we're able to build dashboards, but it's somewhat backward because we use our MDM API to create them. Lookout should provide API to customers so we can query our data and use it in our cloud, and this is the only outstanding area for improvement with the product right now."
"From the analysis that we've done, they do seem to be maybe a step behind in trying to enter the market with a new solution. But when they do pick up, they do come out with some good products."
"Lookout was moving into the SSE space. And so their work on SecureWeb Gateway and SD-WAN is still sort of evolving."
"It should support more customizations. In SailPoint, we can do many customizations, but we are not able to do that in Saviynt. For workflows and other things, we can only use what is already in place. Saviynt has a lot of scope for improvement on the customization part."
"The custom application integration is a little complex, and this tool doesn't provide so many plugins or additional applications."
"The tool is difficult to migrate."
"The solution does not work very well as the number of users increases."
"In terms of improvement, it's really just a matter of them getting more mature. It's a relatively new solution and they probably need to streamline a few of the processes as they mature. But there are not too many problems."
"The biggest drawback is that for every change you want to make, you have to go back to them and ask for it."
"The configuration process at the beginning can be difficult, depending on the complexity of the company."
"The main difficulty was the integration process itself. But we were able to kind of work through it and fix it. We tried integrating with our HR system and other IBM solutions, like Microsoft Identity Management."
"The services take some time to load. It would be helpful if the loading time was reduced."
"I think that the User Interface could be improved."
"Though the Skyhigh Dashboard is processing large amounts of data, the speed of the Dashboard could be improved."
"Iron out the few bugs that I've seen."
"The tool could improve flexibility with the creation of reports/querying data."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The biggest challenge we have with McAfee is their cross-cloud support."
"Needs integration with other technology ecosystems."
