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

"User analytics."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"In terms of their compatibility with major cloud providers, in terms of their abilities, capabilities, and features, they exceed everyone's capabilities in the CASB market."
"Improves creation of security alerts on web proxy logs by having a separate system interpret said logs."
"Good anti-virus filtering, URL categorization, and reporting capabilities."
"Overall, the performance is good."
"It is easy to configure rules."
"Shadow IT reporting capabilities."
"The solution works both outside and on-premises of the company, thus preventing secondary breaches from reaching the company's data."
 

Cons

"The initial setup was challenging, and the documentation could be improved to make it easier."
"The performance of the tool can be improved to provide faster report generation."
"The services take some time to load. It would be helpful if the loading time was reduced."
"User interface could be more intuitive."
"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."
"You have to have some kind of background with cloud-based security, like working with different providers and how to make instances in the clouds and that kind of stuff - including cloud, networking cloud, cloud application development, anything like that is a requirement to be in the CASB space."
"One thing that can be improved is their ability to integrate with other web proxies to discover unsanctioned IP apps."
"It would be nice to be able to get more advanced search functions to filter out data and quickly obtain the data that we need."
"The cost of the solution has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They definitely charge a huge amount. All the security service providers charge a huge amount."
"The licensing fees are based on what environments you are monitoring."
"Some of our clients have a perpetual license and pay additional support yearly."
"It's an expensive solution."
"There is a license required to use this solution and it is paid annually. The price is reasonable."
"Skyhigh provided a FedRAMP solution, tokenization, a better shadow IT capability, and lower cost."
"This is an expensive product, but you have to compare that with other solutions that are on the market."
"Commercially, I find Skyhigh Security a little costlier, compared to other products such as SentinelOne or Cybereason which are really novelty products. I'm not comparing Skyhigh Security with Trend Micro, but with other products, in particular the new, next-generation products. The price for Skyhigh Security is high in terms of value and ROI. I would rate the product price combined with product efficacy a six out of ten."
"The cost of the solution is mid-ranged but worth the price."
