Initial setup is straightforward as their guidelines and instructions are very easy to follow
Pros and Cons
  • "Box API features with DLP capabilities."
  • "SkyHigh has the ability to place users or groups on a ‘Watchlist’; which allows you to see certain views with these Watchlists users/groups in them. This is great when you are looking at live data but if I wanted to generate a report on "only" the watchlists."

What is most valuable?

  • Box API features with DLP capabilities
  • Shadow IT

How has it helped my organization?

Our organization is moving much of its non-sensitive data to Box. We needed the ability to have full visibility into what was occurring within the Box infrastructure, from Skyhigh to Box API integration.

What needs improvement?

SkyHigh has the ability to place users or groups on a ‘Watchlist’; which allows you to see certain views with these Watchlists users/groups in them. This is great when you are looking at live data but if I wanted to generate a report on "only" the watchlists.

For how long have I used the solution?

Two and a half years.

What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

No.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Skyhigh has been improving their product and releasing upgrades on a consistent basis. Now, the stability and speed are greatly improved. Looking forward to their next major release.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

No, since I am able to use my blue coat logs.

How are customer service and technical support?

Customer Service:

A 10 out of 10

Technical Support:

A nine out of 10.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

No.

How was the initial setup?

Straightforward. Guidelines and instructions are very easy to follow.

What about the implementation team?

Our implementation was in-house. Since the deployment of this cloud access security broker (CASB) was rather simple, there was no need to bring in a third-party vendor.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The biggest thing to watch for is the difference in price per monitored user for the different API integrations. We currently only use the Box API, but we thought about using the Salesforce one. However, it was drastically more expensive per user. We are starting to look at the 365 monitoring since we may migrate there soon, but I have not looked at the pricing for it yet.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

No.

Skyhigh's shadow IT capability and cloud risk registry are the two most helpful tools for our organization.

What is most valuable?

Skyhigh's shadow IT capability and cloud risk registry are the two most helpful tools for our organization.

How has it helped my organization?

We are able to see what cloud services are being used with much more clarity than with our proxies and more importantly identify that we are using many cloud services we were not aware were even cloud services. Especially collaboration services. The cloud risk registry has been great for getting a quick and clearer understanding of the risk of proposed services that we are looking at allowing. Previously we were paying for expensive industry reports.

What needs improvement?

The Skyhigh for Google Drive interface and policy engine is a bit confusing and limited when compared against other Google Drive CASB capabilities.

What was my experience with deployment of the solution?

We deployed the FedRAMP GovCloud version, which was not quite up to date with the mainstream version and still had some bugs to work out. Some other features are still in the works. We also found that it is important to ensure your inputs to the system are all uniform as it would have made for a more rapid deployment.

How are customer service and technical support?

Customer Service:

Excellent.

Technical Support:

Excellent.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Skyhigh provided a FedRAMP solution, tokenization, a better shadow IT capability, and lower cost.

What about the implementation team?

The vendor team was excellent.
