BlackBerry Protect (CylancePROTECT) vs. WithSecure Business Suite

The policies that you make is where it's key. The "less you let people do, the better it will be" so to speak. So if you really clamp down on a policy and don't let people do specific things, then it'll be better for you. It also helps to protect the "not so tech savvy" people as well. Basically the same thing as above, if you have users that need more flexibility, on occasion the policies might come into play and interfere if you're not careful.

Incentivized

• Very stable and cost-effective.
• Better integration with leading database vendors would be great; this would address features that are missing like x-windows support and concurrent secure file transfers.
• Patching is relatively fast and not as frequent as other vendors (with no impact on adherence to security best practices).

• Very easy to install and low storage footprint.

Incentivized

• Fast and Unobtrusive, users hardly notice that Cylance is running on their computer, except when it detects something malicious
• User interface is simple for end users, and the management interface is streamlined and easy to get started with. The management interface has a quick tutorial that comes up upon first login that explains all the different aspects of how to configure CylanceProtect.
• Customer support is fantastic - in that if you get stuck or need help understanding a feature/setting, they are quick to respond and help to ensure that your configuration is set as optimal as possible for your scenarios.

Incentivized

• Most up to date secure/encryption technology.
• Very fast to set up and maintain.
• Supported by all major hardware platforms (Microsoft, Linux).

Incentivized

• It would be great if there was a way for an administrator to make a file as safe from the end user device when a false positive has occurred (which is rare). At present and administrator has to log into the web console, create an exception and then wait 60-120 seconds for this to be effective on the end user device, still great, but this can be frustrating for users that are urgently trying to use the file.
• Executive reporting could be better. Just a single page dashboard report that could be included in other monthly reporting.

Incentivized

• X-windows support could be more robust.
• Virtual shell adaptation could be improved.
• Greater concurrency for large secure transmissions would be a great add-on.

It's simply been the best product I've used and tested within the past four years.

I work with hundreds of complex suppliers in healthcare and tech, and this company is more than just an extension of our business.

I have only used CylancePROTECT support one time and they were very fast and responsive with the answers that solved my issue. That is the only reason I gave them a 7 as I have only had one interaction with them.

Incentivized

• Support organization is active, so is online community boards.
• There have been no significant issues that haven't been able to be quickly addressed by either online documentation or F-Secure support.
• Easy to use diagnostic tools and information gathering, make problem analysis fast.
• Phone support can be different due to time zone differences, but this has not been a major issue.

Cylance, I believe is the only one that uses the predict and prevent execution of advanced threats and malware at the endpoint. Cylance is by far a superior product.

Incentivized

• This suite of software does not have any mentionable competition, in my opinion.
• It adheres to current security protocols, in-frequent patching requirements, low IT overhead, and on-going support are exemplary.
• Robust documentation and online community boards help keep support and maintenance transparent and efficient.
• Legacy support for older OS' is quite useful.
• Simplicity when onboarding into custom hybrid network configurations is also vital.

Incentivized

• We have the piece of mind that our endpoints are protected.
• We have more time to work on other projects as we don't have to worry about computers being on to have scheduled scans.
• Our computers CPU and RAM aren't going to be taken up with big process like typical anti-virus programs do.

Incentivized

• Very low cost.
• Low IT overhead (very low network bandwidth, CPU, storage utilization).
• Supported by all major hardware vendors.
