Chad Kliewer - PeerSpot reviewer
We can make more informed decisions on whether an action is malicious
The ease of use and dashboards are improving. We came in at a time when they were developing a new dashboard screen. Therefore, we have had some confusing times between the old and new dashboards. Knowing how the new one works, I have seen vast improvements with it. While the product is very good, there are still some areas for improvement. The initial triage area could be a bit simpler. They get into the weeds real fast; it gets very detailed very fast. I am still looking for an easier triage layer on top with the ability to dig deeper. They are improving on this because I have seen some improvements in the user interface that helps with this. Part of it was moving two different screens into one, merging the two together. It is very good, but it is very technically detailed and would be harder for an entry-level person to decipher. However, improvements are being made. It leverages indicators of behavior to help us remediate faster against attacks. Sometimes, I wish there was more detail on why they consider it malicious.

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

"The interface is user-friendly."
"What I find most valuable is the clarity of the platform."
"The initial setup was easy and straightforward."
"Immediately we can pick up the computers in the network if any malicious operation that is triggered."
"What I like most about Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response is the support because the support is good. The solution is also easy to use, and it has a dashboard. Everything is good, and there's no problem with it."
"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 dashboard is very good and you can consider it as an interactive UI."
"The visibility it gives is excellent."
"Cynet is light and transparent when downloaded. The product's data aggregation is also valuable since you can see everything you need on a page."
"The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point."
"I like that you can implement it in the managed service portfolio."
"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use."
"Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management."
"The customer service and support get back to you real quick."
"I like the Cynet Correlator™ feature."
 

Cons

"I would like to see improvements on the operational side, specifically in grouping."
"Ad hoc higher-level reporting to senior management can be improved or can be implemented. That's definitely an area of improvement that they need to focus on."
"The network coverage becomes an issue most of the time."
"I feel it is a shame that I cannot create groups of groups with inheritance."
"They need to improve their technical support services."
"The product's reporting isn't great."
"I feel that the product lacks reporting features and needs improvement."
"The integration with Microsoft solutions and Microsoft capabilities needs to be improved."
"Increased application for SOAR abilities across interconnected devices would be a welcome improvement."
"I think the technical support could be better."
"Cynet could improve when a reverse proxy is being used to connect to the servers. There could be an easier configuration because it is not plug-and-play."
"Could have better integration with other security applications."
"Its dashboard is not so good. On the dashboard, they don't show the count for client endpoints, which is a failure of this product. This count should be shown on the dashboard. I have 1,000 clients, but I can't see it anywhere on the dashboard."
"In future releases, I would like to see cloud security aspects included."
"Maybe they should add more cloud-to-cloud integrations and also focus on integrations with local, on-premises services."
"One thing to note is that I highly recommend adding a deep learning-based prevention environment as an additional layer to Cynet. However, I always advise my customers to start with Cynet or XDR, for example, and then focus on the people, technology, and processes involved. This is the best approach to ensure that you are not breached with ransomware. While Cynet can prevent most attacks, there have been cases where ransomware has been quicker than Cynet's detection capabilities. In these situations, an additional tool is necessary to ensure complete protection, and that is what I sell as well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."
"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"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."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"Cynet has a pay-as-you-go pricing model."
"Cynet is cheaper than other solutions in the market."
"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
"Our billing is on a quarterly basis, but they have monthly or annual billing availability."
"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."
"it's not cheap, but I would rate it a three out of ten. If one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"We purchase the product’s yearly license."
"It costs us 20,000 to 28,000 per year."
