User Testimonials
	BlackBerry Optics (CylanceOPTICS)	Cybereason Defense Platform
Likelihood to Recommend	If you’re looking for a solution that enables mapping to maturity along with a specific framework and timeline, then Optics definitely makes that easier. If you have a small team and not a lot of spare time, then Optics may force some prioritization work on your team. Incentivized John Keenan Director of Information Security Read full review	Cybereason is good at detections and has some false positives, but when we need their support, it's too slow. My team used to test Cybereason, submitting lots of malware and threats, trying to find problems, and for research purposes. In my experience, every time we found a bug, their support team denied the problems and took lots of weeks to give some answer when we insisted.

Support Rating	I haven’t seen that there is much support for it. It seems like a lot of trial and error is/will be involved. Incentivized John Keenan Director of Information Security Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	We use Cylance in conjunction with two other products. We have ArcticWolf for monitoring the machines at an even finer detail than Cylance (they can pick up things that can be missed). We also use Cisco Umbrella to block potentially malicious DNS queries. The combination of these three products helps us feel much more secure than if we had just one.

Return on Investment	It helps us to know that things are much more hardened than they were with our old "definition-based" Antivirus software. We can sleep at night. Reduced the amount of Virus' on users' machines.
