Room For Improvement

Cynet needs improved mobile support, faster technical assistance, flexible reporting, better threat handling, and enhanced integrations and features.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM struggles with complexity, limited customization, and integration issues, impacting usability and customer satisfaction.
There should be more options than deploying solely through group policy, as the assumption that GPO is working isn’t always the case.
Integration with local Active Directory, not only Azure AD, is a must.
Having a DLP feature would also add value.
The passing and setup are quite complex at the beginning, making onboarding not smooth.
SIEM could have better integration with other technologies.
When dealing with a large amount of data, such as when firewall logs increase, queries sometimes crash or get stuck.
 

Setup Cost

Cynet offers affordable, flexible subscriptions with high ROI, cost-effective features, and competitive pricing compared to CrowdStrike and Sentinel One.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM offers competitive and predictable pricing based on user numbers, ideal for large enterprises.
I think the pricing of Cynet is fair and one of the better options in the market.
Licensing is based on events per second (EPS), costing between $50 to $60 per EPS.
The pricing has similar ingestion charges compared to other solutions, such as Splunk.
 

Valuable Features

Cynet provides advanced threat detection, easy setup, and flexible pricing, appealing to small teams with low management effort.
Securonix Next-Gen SIEM provides advanced threat detection and management with machine learning, automation, and user behavior analytics.
The most effective features of Cynet are its ransomware protection and lateral movement deception.
The SOAR function, deception, and forensics are very useful.
Cynet was valuable since it efficiently managed MDR without consuming a lot of resources.
The software includes user behavior interactions, dashboards, and training capabilities.
Now, the process is automatic, reducing our workload.

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…
Ibrahim Albalawi - PeerSpot reviewer
Less false positives, good detection and integration capabilities, and good pricing
The incident response area should be improved. It is more difficult than other products, but overall, it is good. The platform has a lot of options and functionality. So, you need to check almost everything. For new engineers or people who don’t have much experience with this kind of platform, it is a bit difficult, but for experienced engineers, it is not that difficult. When you have been doing a lot of work for about one or two hours, and you have a lot of tabs open, it slows down or gets stuck. There is a delay of 10 to 15 seconds in opening tabs or dashboards. I don't know why this happens, but for me, it is not a big issue. I just wait, and that's all.
