We performed a comparison between Skybox Security Suite and Tufin Orchestration Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Firewall Security Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"The way that it's built with three-tier architecture, it makes it very horizontally scalable, so I can have multiple fallbacks. If one machine does fall offline, there are four other machines that are doing the exact same job to pick it up"
"The most valuable features are Firewall Assurance and Vulnerability Control."
"Aside from Firewall Assurance, we are using Network Assurance and Change Manager for an overview of the whole network and for documenting requests and the recertification of the ruleset."
"The most valuable features of Skybox Security Suite are all the modules that are provided, such as vulnerability assessments and network, and firewall assessments."
"We use Network Assurance for network visualisation and troubleshooting."
"The performance could be good because we chose it at the time, but it is too complex for us to appreciate its performance because we lack the necessary skills."
"We are currently working on rule review and compliance. The logging features are good."
"It has a good policy management feature and can provide customers with good quality outputs."
"I like the fact that Tufin was able to integrate with our firewalls, which include Palo Alto and FortiGate."
"The solution is good, and no clients complained about it."
"This solution helps us ensure that security policy is followed across our entire hybrid network. You can have a Unified Security Policy which reaches across all networks, so if you are having a change submitted, it doesn't matter if you're enforcing it or not. You can get an alert saying, "This is a violation." That's a value-add."
"It is a great solution. If you have all the devices and firewalls in place, the amount of details that you get along with the network topology is very good."
"I like the deployment and management of this solution."
"The change workflow process is flexible and customizable. I was really impressed with it. It's pretty easy. You can add automatic validation steps. Depending on the security matrix, you can pre-allow whatever flow you want."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it reduces both the time required and the number of errors when making changes."
"There are a lot of benefits to using the reporting. It gives us duplicate objects, duplicate services, shadow firewall rules, and the firewall rules not needed for a given number of days or months."
"Skybox Security Suite's attack surface management feature needs improvement."
"The most recent update was not tested with all of the vendors before it was released, so some of the features are misbehaving."
"The cloud site could be better. They should provide some use cases to help users."
"The Network Assurance, which helps to create the network model, is not so rich."
"Reporting. A lot of the reports, out of the box, are limited to a certain number of either configuration violations or access rule violations. So when you first set up a new firewall to be monitored by Skybox, you don't get a real full report. You have to really tweak it to get everything."
"They are not satisfied with the complexity of the solution and the price."
"Modifications and the deletion of existing policies are currently unavailable."
"The solution needs to move improve its interface to a full web browser version that is more accessible and doesn't require installation for use."
"The product should integrate with the UTM features."
"With scalability, we are going to run into some issues. We have been talking about converting over to actual hardware as opposed to virtual. Therefore, I don't think we are scalable at this time, especially with the updates coming. I'm told that they're going to need a lot more horsepower to push them."
"One of the areas that I've had challenges with is making complicated reports."
"Their pricing can be better. It is not very transparent."
"The initial setup of Tufin was complex. We had some issues with the architecture."
"There are at least two things that need improvement. One is the business workflow and the second is the integration with logging solutions."
"Currently, we have to get different data from different sections of the site. It would be nice if it was all combined into one."
"I would like the application to have faster response times. E.g., the dashboard may take up to two minutes to load. Or, when we do the topology seating its two and a half hours. I would like to get those times down and increase the efficiency of the product there."
