Featured Reviews

John Jimenez - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps efficiently in incident response management and has an easy setup process
I can view the alarms within the platform and subsequently implement various security measures in response. It assists with incident response by providing alerts and visual representations of different security events. However, the effectiveness can vary, and sometimes more effort is required for resolution. DDoS attacks, including detection of DTO POS and identification of malicious IPs, are critical aspects of security to ensure the availability and performance of your systems. The real-time monitoring feature provides enough services to meet the requirements of our security infrastructure. I rate Redware Cloud Native Protector a ten out of ten.
Santiago Gomez - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved the organization's PCI compliance with data loss prevention
I use the solution on a Macintosh computer and it has issues and does not work when I try to log in from the Safari Browser, but it works fine when I log in from the Google Chrome browser. The console has issues when the login is done through a Safari Browser. The console has to be more competitive and the compatibility of the browser needs to be better. I want to know about Skyhigh's competitiveness with other brands and about the vulnerability assessment and micro segmentations. I know Skyhigh has other products, but right now, I am studying what this new product is about. They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It helps us in reaching the ISO27001 certification."
"The initial setup process is easy and intuitive."
"Good anti-virus filtering, URL categorization, and reporting capabilities."
"It's a great product with solid features."
"Data loss prevention and user behavior analysis are two valuable features."
"The most valuable features of McAfee Web Gateway are anti-malware, reports, and powerful categorization of web pages."
"The other products that I have evaluated do not have the scalability options that McAfee has."
"It help us monitor high risk services, blocking them, and also feeding them to our egress points."
"What's most valuable in Skyhigh Security is its level of security. Another valuable feature of the solution is threat analysis."
"DLP policies and anomalies."
 

Cons

"The platform’s interface needs enhancement."
"The solution needs automatic testing."
"The only thing we have faced is that sometimes, randomly, the portal becomes too slow."
"The encrypted disk implementation could be improved. I currently use it from a dongle or USB key with two-factor authentication to access my computer."
"The services take some time to load. It would be helpful if the loading time was reduced."
"McAfee Web Gateway could improve the reporting. We have the reporting on a separate server and sometimes the database becomes full. These aspects could improve."
"The solution is hard to configure, our team does not have specific training requirements for McAfee making it difficult."
"Support for securing more cloud apps."
"The Skyhigh for Google Drive interface and policy engine is a bit confusing and limited when compared against other Google Drive CASB capabilities."
"The solution has room for improvement in its DDoS protection."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Some of our clients have a perpetual license and pay additional support yearly."
"Pricing for Skyhigh Security is fine."
"There is an annual licensing cost to use McAfee Web Gateway. The purchasing of licensing can be difficult for the government sector."
"This is an expensive product, although it is made for larger enterprises and not for small organizations."
"This is an expensive product, but you have to compare that with other solutions that are on the market."
"Have a risk-based approach towards pricing."
"Pricing for Skyhigh Security is okay, though there's always a scope for price improvements. Its pricing is okay compared to other products because other products have very expensive licensing costs. Along with the licensing, support is also provided for Skyhigh Security, so pricing is reasonable, but if there's proactive or better support, that will justify the pricing. I haven't interacted with the Skyhigh Security technical support team yet, so I'd give pricing a four out of five rating for now."
"The solution's hardware is expensive."
