Cyera Reviews & Product Details

I like that the installation of Cyera was very fast. The proof of concept we started was completed in just a few days, and we were able to see the data within three days and start working on it. Within one week, we were fully deployed and could access the information we wanted, allowing us to start resolving issues promptly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the hardest thing to understand is how to improve the system after the first integration and the creation of the rules. It's hard to understand the process of how to improve the system. First, we got an overwhelming amount of issues, and the start of the process of resolving those was very tedious and long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cyera automatically discovers and protects sensitive data across my cloud environment, helping reduce security and compliance risks. It also helps lower costs by identifying unused or duplicate data, and it improves visibility into who has access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn’t anything I don’t like about it; it’s so good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how easy Cyera is to use. The user interface is very friendly and intuitive, so I don't have to search a lot to find the tools I need. It's particularly useful for seeing which users have the most sensitive data not stored properly. The ease of use was a major reason for switching from Varonis.

I dislike that sometimes Cyera's scanning for databases gets stuck, and you need to contact the Cyera team to restart it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cyera bridges the gap between our team and security. Every part of that bridge feels carefully built, with each brick like a technically refined stone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s not very transparent. I couldn’t sit an end user down and expect them to understand much of it. It feels user-friendly mainly for people who aren’t technically challenged. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Cyera to gain visibility in data I have and classify it. I like how it easily handles data visibility, out of policy issues, and remediation while reducing the attack surface. The platform is easy to use and offers the best customer service. I also found the initial setup to be easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

High-Accuracy Data Discovery: The most common praise for Cyera is its ability to uncover “shadow data”—sensitive information (PII, PCI, secrets, etc.) that has drifted into unmanaged buckets or ended up in forgotten databases. In contrast, legacy tools (such as traditional DLPs) often depend on rigid regex patterns that can generate a large number of false positives. Cyera’s AI-native classification, by comparison, is described as significantly more accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Over-reliance on AI accuracy is a concern for me. No AI is perfect, and even though Cyera claims high accuracy, it can still produce false positives and false negatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Cyera incredibly valuable for its intuitive dashboard, which simplifies the process of data classification and helps me maintain an inventory of my network efficiently. I appreciate how easy the initial setup was, making it accessible for me and my team to start using without a steep learning curve. The seamless integration with Qualys enhances our workflow, ensuring we can leverage existing tools effectively. The usability and straightforward implementation of Cyera have significantly contributed to how I manage and organize data, which in turn, strengthens our data management strategies.

I feel that Cyera utilizes technology that is too new, which may imply potential challenges with system stability or compatibility with legacy systems. This aspect could create a barrier to adoption and usage, limiting its usefulness until the technology matures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the integration of datastores in Cyera. The datastore scanning and reporting structure are very well done. I spend most of my time on the Datastore section and Data in Cyera because it provides a complete inventory of all the datastores. The initial setup of Cyera was easy because it's a completely Cloud SaaS solution, and datastore integration was smooth. I'm also grateful for the support team who help us with queries and feedback.

I think including forensic data/actual data along with sample data would be helpful. Also, having a full-fledged DLP solution could make it a more comprehensive solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most of Cyera is the strong visibility it provides into sensitive data and do the classification. It helps us prioritize data risk, issues and take action appropriately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some challenges include initial setup complexity specially in a hybrid environment with limitations access the on-prem systems. Reporting and customization could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
