Tenable and Prisma Cloud offer strong security solutions with varying deployment times and pricing structures. Tenable focuses on customizable reporting and centralized management, while Prisma Cloud is praised for its multi-cloud visibility and threat detection capabilities.
The summary above is based on 140 interviews we conducted recently with Tenable Security Center and Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks users. To access the review's full transcripts, download our report.
The presales team was very proactive and helped us in every aspect we needed to resolve our queries during implementation and they provided knowledge to our team internally.
They have remained engaged to drive resolution of issues that we have found.
When we raised an issue to high priority, they answered faster.
API security is an area that is definitely growing, because almost every web application has tons of APIs connecting to other web applications with tons of APIs.
It is scanning everything rather than giving us the ability to be real granular in choosing which agents can scan which repositories.
Their support needs to be improved. It is by far one of the worst support that I have seen.
It's important for Tenable to catch up on testing capabilities that are present in solutions like Qualys.
The reports and plugins for reports and scans could benefit from enhancements.
How flexible is the tool as far as working with different cloud environments goes? And it is perfectly fine in that regard.
It's very scalable and very easy to use.
Aporeto is now available in AWS where it efficiently deploys, manages, and secures applications at scale on various platforms including Kubernetes, Docker, Linux, and Mesos, among others.
Scalability is a bit limited with Tenable Security Center.
There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees for Prisma Cloud.
Does it do what we need it to do? Does it work with the things that we want it to work with? That is the important part for us.
They gave us some good discounts right at the end of the year based on the value that it brings, visibility, and the ability to build in cloud, compliance, and security within one dashboard.
The product is somewhat pricey, reflecting its valuable features and status as a high-quality solution in the vulnerability management market.
The cost of Tenable Security Center is reasonable for our company.
The ability to log in and get near real-time data on our cloud environment is very good.
A pre-announcement or pre-testing of the alerts would be a better way for them to do this, instead of creating 50 or 100-plus alerts.
I cannot recall any downtime with the solution.
Aporeto is designed to combine metadata from the orchestration layer, the container, the operating system, and the AWS instance identity document.
The most valuable feature is that the rule set is managed and that it can be run on a regularly scheduled basis.
The Inventory functionality, enabling us to identify all of the resources deployed into a single account in either AWS or Azure, or into Prisma Cloud as a whole, has been really useful for us.
Tenable Security Center provides an overall score of vulnerabilities, comparing an organization with others in the same industry.
The most effective feature of Tenable Security Center for detecting vulnerabilities is its capability for critical mapping.
Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks is used for managing cloud security posture, container security, and compliance monitoring in multi-cloud environments.
Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks provides tools for vulnerability management, misconfiguration detection, and compliance with standards like HIPAA and CIS. It offers near real-time inventory and alerting, enhancing cloud configuration audits and security across AWS, Azure, and GCP. Its automated security features offer real-time protection and integration into CI/CD pipelines, optimizing visibility, control, and risk identification without manual steps. Despite its capabilities, improvement areas include documentation, pricing clarity, usability, security automation, dashboard customization, and API functionality. Slow support and integration challenges with AWS and third-party tools are noted.
What are the key features of Prisma Cloud?In industries such as healthcare and finance, Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks enhances security by aligning with strict compliance standards and safeguarding sensitive data. Its tools adapt to rapid cloud service updates and enable secure deployment across diverse cloud infrastructures.
