We performed a comparison between Netskope Next Gen Secure Web Gateway and Skyhigh 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 most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"The solution is stable."
"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."
"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 solution offers good security functionality."
"Web filtering and DLP are good features."
"Prevents data leakage and protects data."
"It is for secure web trafficking, and it is doing what it needs to do. It allows customers to consolidate and eliminate multiple technologies onto Netskope and just kind of turn the dial and use more features, such as CASB, VPN. SWG is another feature. You can monitor and govern all the traffic."
"The solution's CASB, DLP, and threat protection features are very good."
"Overall, the product is nice, and I like the URL filtering, CASB, and other security stacks like threat prevention."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its three modules, which are SWG, ZTNA, and CASB."
"We've found the solution to be quite stable."
"There is [a feature] called cloud registry where we can see a risk assessment for the cloud services being used. If we want to add a new cloud service or a new cloud application, we can check into it and do an assessment through the cloud registry."
"It's an easy-to-use product."
"The other products that I have evaluated do not have the scalability options that McAfee has."
"The most valuable features of MVISION Cloud are the automatic reports and modification incidents."
"Offers a very strong URL spam filtering feature."
"They were very, very aggressive in the market to get a new market share or to take over market share while other companies were being broken up."
"Data loss prevention and user behavior analysis are two valuable features."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"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"
"Netskope Next Gen Secure Web Gateway needs to integrate IoT, which can help to control devices."
"There is room for improvement in streamlining policies. So what happens is that when you apply a specific Netskope policy, you never know the kind of content it will automatically block, or it will allow."
"The solution could improve the features for Zero Trust Network Access. They should add more security components to that module."
"Improvement in the solution is required in certain areas where the product does not provide access to its direct end users, who use the portal as an administrator."
"Netskope can only provide the high level related to threats."
"Since they have the Netskope client, adding some functionality in the endpoint would be good."
"They should work on marketing material to put out their work with a little more effort."
"The initial setup is a bit complex in that it takes a lot of time. In order to get the product to work as you need it to, there is a lot of configuration required."
"I think that the User Interface could be improved."
"The services take some time to load. It would be helpful if the loading time was reduced."
"The cloud needs improvement with respect to DLP."
"The tool could improve flexibility with the creation of reports/querying data."
"The biggest challenge we have with McAfee is their cross-cloud support."
"The encrypted disk implementation could be improved. I currently use it from a dongle or USB key with two-factor authentication to access my computer."
"SkyHigh has the ability to place users or groups on a ‘Watchlist’; which allows you to see certain views with these Watchlists users/groups in them. This is great when you are looking at live data but if I wanted to generate a report on "only" the watchlists."
"The only thing we have faced is that sometimes, randomly, the portal becomes too slow."
