Bart Coddens - PeerSpot reviewer
Evolved cloud security with active monitoring but needs interface consistency
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. I require consistency in the user interface to ensure everything is streamlined into the same look and feel. More work is needed in fine-tuning the threat data towards your CSPM and activity logs, aligning them with business intelligence, which requires a cohesive console interface. My assessment of CloudGuard CDRs in intrusion detection and threat hunting capabilities is that it still needs some work. All the threat data that comes in, you need to fine tune it a bit.
Shrikant Pareek - PeerSpot reviewer
Helpful on the go compliance reports, simple to use, and integrates well
My advice to others is Warden can be used with any of the public clouds and the integration is simple. If you are using it for your customer, start sharing the report with the customer and you will make good business out of that because for customers, security is a large issue for cloud infrastructure. Warden does a great job making sure that you are getting all the open points regarding your security. You are compliant with security if you're using Warden. Amazon AWS and GCP chose Warden as their security partner of the year. All my customers are happy with the results of the solution. I rate Warden a ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We like the GSL Builder feature. When you're running a security operations center, you spend a lot of time monitoring endpoint activity to ensure there is no malicious traffic or anonymous access in the environment. The GSL Builder is helpful for deep investigations of a particular reason for an incident. You can use it to get more information."
"The two most valuable features for us are the central firewall administrator and the real-time cloud compliance monitoring."
"The tool is also very intuitive; its dashboards are very complete and provide a lot of valuable information for decision-making to improve security."
"It has great scalability."
"Cloud security posture management is the feature we've been using the longest."
"This product provides a really nice visualization of the infrastructure, including network topology, firewalls, etc."
"The solution offers an excellent price, benefit, and installation relationship."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable features of Warden are the simplicity and the on-the-go compliance reports. You only need to name the place, the country you belong to, and the states you are in and then according to that, it will give you the compliances report. Additionally, Warden integrates well with different cloud providers, such as GCP and Amazon AWS."
 

Cons

"In general, for the product to be successful, they need to improve security, and configuration detection."
"The tool has a lot of potential, but today, it lacks a lot of Scripts/Bots for Azure."
"I don't have any notes for improvements."
"The reporting has a lot of opportunities to continuously improve so that we can continue to show value."
"Automation and advanced threat prevention have room for improvement."
"The integration process could be enhanced by enabling integration at the organizational level rather than requiring the manual setup of individual accounts."
"The false positives can be annoying at times."
"We have concerns regarding the pricing and would appreciate seeing some improvements."
"Warden is set to support more cloud providers in the future which will be a benefit, such as Huawei Cloud and Alibaba."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Right now, we have licenses on 500 machines, and they are not cheap."
"The license for CloudGuard Posture Management is about $80 a year, and it's based on your cloud footprint, not the number of users. So you could have a million users, and it doesn't matter."
"CloudGuard is fairly priced."
"​They support either annual licensing or hourly. At the time of our last negotiation, it was either one or the other, you could not mix or match. I would have liked to mix/match. ​"
"Licensing and costs are straightforward, as they have a baseline of 100 workloads within one license and no additional charges."
"In the beginning, the price of Dome9 was cheap, whereas now it is not."
"The license fee is high."
"I would advise taking into account the existing number of devices and add a forecast of the number of devices to be added in the coming year or two, to obtain better pricing."
"There is a license to use Warden. The price of the solution is worth the costs."
