Boosts security and compliance in multi-cloud environments while real-time threat detection enhances risk management
Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP flagged a misconfiguration in our AWS S3 bucket that had overly permissive access settings. That configuration could have exposed our sensitive data to the public internet. The platform not only identified the issue but also provided remediation that our team was able to apply immediately. This prevented a potential data exposure. Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP offers a unified, modular platform that combines CSPM, CWPP, CIEM, code security, and cloud detection and response. The agentless workload posture, real-time threat detection and response, multi-cloud coverage and visibility, compliance automation, and one-click remediations stand out as its best features. I find myself relying on the risk management engine and prioritization the most day-to-day. In any cloud environment, you are flooded with findings, misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps. Without prioritization, it is overwhelming for our team to take care of the posture. CloudGuard's risk scoring helps us cut through incidents. This makes remediation faster and focused instead of wasting time checking every alert. We get to fix the issues that pose real business risks. Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP has positively impacted our organization at a significant level. We get greater visibility and control across all our cloud environments. Some biggest benefits we have seen are faster detection and remediation of misconfigurations, improved compliance posture, reduced risk exposure, operational efficiency, and cost savings. Overall, it has made our cloud environment more secure, compliant, and easier to manage while freeing up our teams to focus on projects instead of chasing alerts.

High availability and self-healing mechanisms ensure seamless production builds
The most useful feature of Mirantis Container Cloud for our container management is Kubernetes. It provides a cluster, high availability, and a self-healing mechanism. Its multi-cluster management capability enhances our operational efficiency as it is easy to use, and every deployment is from the CI/CD, which automatically builds and deploys without human interference, reducing our deployment time to a few seconds.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Security visibility with Dome9 is excellent."
"The dashboard is intuitive. You know if you're compliant or not, and then it gives you a remediation plan."
"The reporting is quite good; it is the most powerful aspect of this solution and it's user-friendly."
"Dome9 has improved our organization; we have a centralized view of all of our assets, our visible assets our ECs, our inventories. And then all the policies are centralized, and it is easier to manage because everything is one component console."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to work with the APIs to integrate into our own backend systems."
"It offers security insights and recommendations to assist organizations in acting and remediating issues swiftly."
"It saves time because I can look across the organization. Instead of checking 50 different accounts atomically and spending 15 minutes investigating each, I can spend 15 minutes exploring all 50 accounts. It allows me to quickly look across the org for similar problems when one comes up. That's a huge time saver."
"One of the most valuable feature is its scalability because it is easy to work with. Even though I haven't fully removed it before, it's simple to get started and develop further. It's comparable to working with languages like C++ and Python. Python. It is easy to understand and more user-friendly."
"Now it is easier to set up the development environment and also to test the applications on the pipelines."
"Now it is easier to set up the development environment and also to test the applications on the pipelines."
"You need to make an architectural runway before actually starting to implement Docker Compose, especially in a distributed environment."
"Ansible (when combined with Docker and Docker deployment tools) wins any time of the day."
"You don't need to do anything; just deploy it, run it, and then it does all the work by itself."
"The most valuable feature is its ease of use."
"The most valuable aspect is the excellent support. In addition, the billing system is really easy to understand."
 

Cons

"The security of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management could improve. There are always new security issues coming out."
"The user interface needs work. Sometimes, it is a transition from the old tool to the new CNAPP Two that I currently have, and remnants of the old environment can still be detected."
"Automatic remediation requires read/write access. When providing read/write access to third-party applications, this can add risk. It should have some options of triggering API calls to the cloud platform, which in turn, can make the required changes."
"CloudGuard could be improved by including integration with vendors other than AWS, especially Azure, especially in permissions."
"Some problems have been found in analysis at the time of execution, and local install revision agents have generated management incompatibility."
"For businesses with varied IT ecosystems, increasing the integration capabilities with additional third-party products and services would increase flexibility and user-friendliness."
"Every now and then, we feel that their team's training and orientation process on orienting the clients and partners is low and needs to be strengthened so that every single individual is completely aware and informed of the features and their utilities."
"The costs are high."
"This solution is open-source and they need to focus on improving the Linux Operating Systems' GUI. It does not have a GUI making it not user-friendly. Additionally, the containers need to improve security and compliance."
"There are a couple of things. Firstly, the vaultStore database within Container isn't as efficient as a standalone Container vault. This needs improvement."
"I find Docker easier to use, but I gave it to an inexperienced developer and it took him a lot of time to understand."
"Mirantis Container Cloud could improve in simplifying security and compliance management, particularly in vulnerability scanning and patching."
"It would be very nice to have a GUI that can be used by any administrator, and not just people who have experience with Docker."
"This product will only be useful if it can successfully run legacy applications in the cloud."
"The solution would benefit in improvements made to the storage, cleaning up information from the disk, and reading logs."
"The only problem is that they are too complicated for what we are trying to accomplish."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have the enterprise-level license and we renew it annually because it is worth the cost."
"It is difficult to contextualize the pricing because we are used to Indian pricing and licensing."
"I suggest that you pay attention to the product pricing because while there are no tricks, and the licensing model is transparent, the final numbers may surprise you."
"Its price is very fair."
"CloudGuard is fairly priced."
"The price is on the higher end."
"It is a very straightforward licensing model that is based on the number of assets you are discovering and managing with the solution."
"The licensing part still needs some work. The issue that I have is that we do not use all the services in the cloud, but sometimes, CloudGuard identifies them as an asset."
"With open source, you can use Mirantis completely free."
"Mirantis Container Cloud is free. However, there are features for which you need to pay."
"Docker is a free solution."
"The community edition does not require a license and is completely free."
"The product is not expensive."
"Its licensing is on a yearly basis."
"I rate the product price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one means low price and ten means high price."
"The solution is open-source and free to try."
