AtulChaurasia - PeerSpot reviewer
Scalable platform with intuitive features for detecting malicious files
The initial setup process is straightforward. We have to install the agent, create a package, and deploy it on servers. It has a prebuilt console managed by the cloud team of Cybereason. We don't have to worry about the console and concentrate on endpoint implementation. It takes ten days to deploy it on 10,000 devices.
Zubair Ahmad - PeerSpot reviewer
Managed threat detection efficiently with minimal resource usage
We used the solution as a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. It detected threats, and the team managing our services took care of it. We did not face any major challenges or attacks, and memory utilization was minimal. It functioned very well Cynet was valuable since it efficiently…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cybereason absolutely enables us to mitigate and isolate on the fly. Our managed detection response telemetry has dropped dramatically since we began using it. It's very top-of-mind. We were running some tabletop exercises and none of the detections were getting triggered by the managed security services provider. So we needed to find a solution that would trigger high-fidelity alerts. That was Cybereason and it dramatically changed our landscape from the detection and response perspective."
"For me, the technical support is good."
"We didn't have the visibility that we now have. It has increased our visibility by a lot. So, we put a lot more time into really looking at our environment and what is happening throughout our different networks. It has increased our visibility by around fivefold."
"It gives all the information in a clear response."
"Their EDR solution, the ability to mitigate issues through their command line, is probably the best feature that we've had. We use that all the time. It's very useful for doing investigations."
"I haven't had any issues with the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution is efficient."
"The most valuable feature is the capability of the command used by the machine so that we see the kind of performance that is running."
"Cynet is unique in that it has almost everything included and it was built up from the ground, instead of a bundle of purchased and composed modules. It gives you easier very good visibility than Sentinel One as well as a lower maintenance burden."
"The dashboard is beautiful, overall easy of use, and the UBA and NBA features are valued."
"I like the Cynet Correlator™ feature."
"Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management."
"The initial setup is very fast and very easy."
"It is quite stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"A reliable security system that automatically quarantines anything suspicious."
"We are protecting all our workstations."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in the product features related to device control, particularly USB management."
"The product's reporting isn't great."
"There can be problems with the EDI."
"It should be more stable, and the sensor needs improvement in terms of connectivity."
"I feel that the product lacks reporting features and needs improvement."
"I feel it is a shame that I cannot create groups of groups with inheritance."
"It initially took some time to deploy."
"I would like to see improvements on the operational side, specifically in grouping."
"Cynet fails to deploy the same technology in mobile devices."
"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the usability of this product for new threats. Meaning, not everything which is new is properly seen by the product and not all the required actions are taken."
"I'd like to see more data loss prevention within the product."
"Management of the console could be simplified and made more user-friendly because right now it's not very easy to use."
"The solution lacks URL filtering."
"I would like to see more emphasis on building the data lake and storing all endpoint data in the enterprise data lake so that data mining can be performed"
"The inability to add contact information inside the Cynet is also an issue because it makes things more complicated. I would like to have a simple feature to enter a contact name and number for the person taking care of that unit or that server."
"The solution just needs to keep maturing and they need to keep up with the threat landscape to ensure they're protecting clients well as time passes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is manageable."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"We considered a few other solutions. Some were ridiculously overpriced, while others didn't have solutions for Mac endpoints. That was a deal-breaker because most of our organization is on Mac. It came down to two vendors: Cybereason and another. They had similar pitches and almost identical approaches, but in the end, Cybereason gave us the best value for our money."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"Its licensing is on a monthly basis."
"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
"I don't have specific information about integration capabilities or licensing costs."
"It is extremely affordable. I'll give it a five out of five in terms of price. It was half the cost of the next closest competitor, and the competitor didn't provide SOC services."
"The pricing was good."
"Pricing wise, Cynet seems to be very competitive. The cost is probably lower than that offered by many of its competitors for all the functions and features it offers."
"It costs 18,000 per year, but we have the whole package with not only Cynet but also the Perception Point for emails. There are also some small security courses for our users."
"Cynet is cheap."
