We performed a comparison between Skyhigh Security and Trend Micro Web Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Secure Web Gateways (SWG) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is stable."
"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 most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"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."
"The other products that I have evaluated do not have the scalability options that McAfee has."
"The solution performs well."
"Skyhigh has given us categorization and rating of websites separate from what the web proxy places on the logs."
"Data loss prevention and user behavior analysis are two valuable features."
"The risk rating of each cloud application has been very useful. Whenever we discover a new application is use, we are able to quickly determine if this application is safe to use and whether or not we should allow our end users to be able to access it."
"Tokenization."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"The initial setup is fairly straightforward and easy to perform."
"The most valuable feature is machine learning, which automatically monitors the activity on the machine."
"The solution's scalability is good and we have more than 90 users for it."
"It's secure and useful from an administrative point of view, with controllable login monitoring and so on."
"I feel that it is a user-friendly product that provides quick response to users."
"We find the advanced license for the DLP to be particularly useful with this product."
"The product's installation phase was easy."
"The solution is stable."
"It's a stable solution."
"Lookout was moving into the SSE space. And so their work on SecureWeb Gateway and SD-WAN is still sort of evolving."
"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."
"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"
"I would like to see more power being given to the admin. In the sense that in case an employee is facing an issue and they want to configure a service, like attaching an email in Gmail, for example, they should be given the option to make the service request and get that configured on the go."
"McAfee Web Gateway could improve the reporting. We have the reporting on a separate server and sometimes the database becomes full. These aspects could improve."
"Its initial setup could be more straightforward."
"It would be nice to be able to get more advanced search functions to filter out data and quickly obtain the data that we need."
"The tool could improve flexibility with the creation of reports/querying data."
"They could be integrated with CASB. I think normally McAfee has this solution in the cloud, but for us the best is on-premise."
"It needs to be more user-friendly, as it is a little bit complicated to use."
"Needs integration with other technology ecosystems."
"This solution has a lot of restrictions on what non-administrator users can do, including generating comparative code. We would like to see this changed as the product is developed."
"There are multiple ways Web Security could improve, such as usability and web access to several programming modes."
"I would like to see better scalability and better performance."
"The costs are a bit high in terms of licensing."
"The solution's scalability could be better."
"The installation is a little bit complex."
"The price of Trend Micro Web Security is the only area of concern where improvements are required. From an improvement perspective, the product should be made available to users at a cheaper rate."
"The system should generate reports when an attack has been stopped, contained, or removed."
