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's threat hunting and investigation are the most valuable features. Threat hunting is a user-friendly feature that keeps you safe. Investigation offers an added value that I haven't seen with other EDR services. It allows you to find specific policy problems within your environment."
"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."
"The initial setup was easy and straightforward."
"They do a very good job of providing multi-stage visualizations of malicious operations that immediately show all attack details across all devices and users. Since it is MalOp-centric model, you can see if there has been a similar operation across multiple machines. If it is the same thing appearing on multiple machines, you see all the machines and users affected in one screen."
"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."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"For me, the technical support is good."
"I haven't had any issues with the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"We are using almost all of the features and we find it quite good overall."
"It is quite stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"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."
"We are very satisfied with the level of performance we get."
"Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management."
"A reliable security system that automatically quarantines anything suspicious."
"I would recommend Cynet to others."
"It can be deployed in autonomous mode, and then it automatically blocks malware threats."
 

Cons

"The integration with Microsoft solutions and Microsoft capabilities needs to be improved."
"What needs to improve in Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response and what I'd like to see in its next release is a centralized dashboard that allows you to view what is there, similar to what's on Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager: a beautiful display and reporting. Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response has to start with the compliance, the homepage, etc. Everything should be there and should be customizable. The options should be there. The tool is very good currently, but visibility for IT administrators is lacking and needs to be worked on."
"I feel it is a shame that I cannot create groups of groups with inheritance."
"It initially took some time to deploy."
"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."
"Its Microsoft PowerShell protections still need some compatibility improvements. We have run across just a few. It is compatible with 90% of what we have in our network, but there is that 10% that we are still struggling with as far as compatibility with the type of PowerShell scripts needed to run our day-to-day business."
"The deployment on individual endpoints is more geared toward larger organizations. It might prove to be a bit too complicated for a smaller organization. You need to know what you're doing when you're deploying the sensor."
"The product's reporting isn't great."
"Cynet fails to deploy the same technology in mobile devices."
"SIEM - Although with their Centralised Log Management Cynet has created the basis for SIEM functionality, this is to be expanded in the near future."
"Could have better integration with other security applications."
"Increased application for SOAR abilities across interconnected devices would be a welcome improvement."
"Linux servers are not supported."
"Maybe they should add more cloud-to-cloud integrations and also focus on integrations with local, on-premises services."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
"We'd like something that makes it easier to manage specific points."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
"The pricing is manageable."
"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"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."
"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"Cynet is cheaper than other solutions in the market."
"The price should not be less than $100 which is quite reasonable for this solution because you are getting multiple components."
"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
"Cynet has a pay-as-you-go pricing model."
"It costs us 20,000 to 28,000 per year."
"The licensing for Cynet is yearly. The solution pricing depends on the customer, but it is not very expensive."
"There is an extra cost if you want the support of Cynet."
"Cynet is very affordable."
