Find out in this report how the two Cloud Workload Protection Platforms (CWPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of PingSafe are the asset inventory and issue indexing."
"All the features we use are equal and get the job done."
"Cloud Native Security's most valuable features include cloud misconfiguration detection and remediation, compliance monitoring, a robust authentication security engine, and cloud threat detection and response capabilities."
"We liked the search bar in PingSafe. It is a global search. We were able to get some insights from there."
"We noted immediate benefits from using the solution."
"The real-time detection and response capabilities overall are great."
"Cloud Native Security is user-friendly. Everything in the Cloud Native Security tool is straightforward, including detections, integration, reporting, etc. They are constantly improving their UI by adding plugins and other features."
"It's positively affected the communication between cloud security, application developers, and AppSec teams."
"The API is its most valuable feature. On the API side, relative to the rest of the market, Check Point is decades ahead of its competitors."
"The product offers good and easy integration capabilities with other products."
"The stuff that it's picking up and blocking and stopping from coming into our environment has been fantastic."
"I appreciate the ease of deployment and the intuitive dashboard. Even someone with basic IT knowledge can easily understand the dashboard and identify potential threats."
"This product enhances faster and more secure sharing of information among colleagues from different departments."
"It is fast and quite effective in terms of preventing any security incidents."
"It is very intuitive. It is a point and click type of deal."
"We need the phishing detection and email quarantine. Once an email is considered malicious, it stays in the quarantine where we can interrogate it. We can check out why it was quarantined and see if it should be delivered to the individual."
"The most valuable features in Symantec Cloud Workload Protection are endpoint protection and active directory features. The active directory features in the product are very good, and in terms of security, the most valuable feature in Symantec Cloud Workload Protection is threat defense or threat protection."
"It will read various logs, diagnose what is wrong, and then alert you."
"Customized queries should be made easier to improve PingSafe."
"The Automation tab is an add-on that doesn’t work properly. They provide a list of scripts that don’t work and I have asked support to assist but they won’t help. When running on various endpoints the script doesn’t work and if it does, it’s only a couple. There are a lot of useful scripts that would be beneficial to run forensics, event logs, and process lists running on the endpoint."
"We can customize security policies but lack auditing capabilities."
"PingSafe's current documentation could be improved to better assist customers during the cluster onboarding process."
"It would be really helpful if the solution improves its agent deployment process."
"We'd like to have better notifications. We'd like them to happen faster."
"Whenever I view the processes and the process aspect, it takes a long time to load."
"If I had to pick a complaint, it would be the way the hosts are listed in the tool. You have different columns separated by endpoint name, Cloud Account, and Cloud Instances ID. I wish there was something where we could change the endpoint name and not use just the IP address. We would like to have custom names or our own names for the instances. If I had a complaint, that would be it, but so far, it meets all the needs that we have."
"if a phishing email were to get through and bypass the product — which very few do — it would be nice if, when a user clicked on that phishing email, they got a second-chance opportunity, a chance to double-check that they really wanted to proceed to that website."
"Some undefined threats can bypass the security system when there is a networking failure in the organization."
"There is too much functionality, which makes it difficult to use. More guidance for users would be helpful."
"The integration with Gsuite could be improved, especially when reporting the amount of emails it manages to filter."
"It would be good to have the option to export the respective record data from dashboards or logs to .csv or other files."
"A phishing simulator would be helpful as a user training module."
"There are a few areas for improvement. One is the occasional sluggishness or latency, which is likely due to the cloud-based nature of the solution. So, the performance can be better."
"From time to time, the system's administrators notice the increase in the false-positive alerts being reported by CloudGuard SaaS."
"One area for improvement in Symantec Cloud Workload Protection is integration. Other features that could be improved are defense control and encryption, particularly in the USB. For example, users should be able to control the USB and have the capability of blocking and allowing USB reading and writing. Having a USB encryption feature in Symantec Cloud Workload Protection would also be very useful."
"In the future, we may need to use features that are only available in one of the competing products."
