Room For Improvement

Cynet needs improved mobile support, faster technical assistance, flexible reporting, better threat handling, and enhanced integrations and features.
Trellix EDR needs enhanced performance, integration, user interface, historical search, and streamlined management for better user experience.
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.
I am seeing, for workflows, some sort of ethical hacking to test our environment.
 

Setup Cost

Cynet offers affordable, flexible subscriptions with high ROI, cost-effective features, and competitive pricing compared to CrowdStrike and Sentinel One.
Trellix EDR pricing starts at $25,000, offers flexibility for startups, but advanced features and retention fees can increase costs.
I think the pricing of Cynet is fair and one of the better options in the market.
 

Valuable Features

Cynet provides advanced threat detection, easy setup, and flexible pricing, appealing to small teams with low management effort.
Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response provides scalable, automated cybersecurity with real-time monitoring, threat visualization, and seamless integration capabilities.
The SOAR function, deception, and forensics are very useful.
Cynet was valuable since it efficiently managed MDR without consuming a lot of resources.
The valuable aspects of Cynet are its EDR and XDR components, which are available at a reasonable price point.
I have spent efforts on training our managers and others - what can software do if the knowledge base is low?

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…
CESARCASTRO - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhancements needed for security alerts while ongoing training strengthens defenses
This year, I am going to improve some tools to be installed or maybe acquire some services to better manage our web services and work with my coworkers. Application fiber also needs attention. Nowadays I am making applications that are publicly seen on the Internet. I need some protection, possibly multi-factor authentication improvements. I am seeing, for workflows, some sort of ethical hacking to test our environment. Knowledge of everything, not only the product - maybe some kind of alerts - needs to emerge. I see the current ones as very low-tier, and they must improve.
