Comprehensive asset visibility and OT operations support enhance risk mitigation
I use Armis for asset discovery and vulnerability assessments of the OT network Armis is easy to use. Very few software solutions have OT capabilities that do not impact OT operations. Its asset visibility is good as well. This comprehensive feature set is crucial for our operations.…

Centralized asset tracking has transformed governance and now speeds incident response
I would add that currently, the tool supports some integrations, but we would expect it to support broader integration with other security tools, observability, or any other cloud integrations. One area Axonius can be improved is its integration process, as it is not straightforward; there is a lot involved in cloning the instance and other hard changes that I expect to be fully automated, suggesting an agentless method instead of utilizing agents, which feels somewhat legacy but could be improved. The user interface needs improvement because it is a bit laggy sometimes, making it not straightforward when we want to identify things quickly, leading us to go in different directions which could be better tied together in one place.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I find the most valuable features of Armis to be its focus on IT, OT security, and medical device security."
"Armis is easy to use."
"The initial setup and deployment were simple."
"Armis has positively impacted my organization by helping me identify vulnerabilities more effectively, especially on assets that I did not know existed on the network."
"Armis is very easy to implement due to its agentless design and offers a granular level of visibility for all assets in the network."
"Armis saves time by automating asset inventory management, allowing enterprises to quickly strategize by understanding their assets and exposures."
"It determines which assets and devices are at risk, alerts you if there's a risk, and categorizes all assets, including personal computers, mobile phones, servers, televisions, cars, and video game consoles."
"The tool is user-friendly and helps to detect vulnerabilities."
"The automation capabilities in Axonius have streamlined our security operations."
"I like that the tool has a user-friendly interface. It helps organizations and big companies improve business requirements and control processes."
"he best feature I found in Axonius is that it shows us the duration of eCheck, and it shows us what device is down and in which part of the system life cycle or the checking part the system is down in."
"The solution's technical support was good...The product's initial setup phase is pretty straightforward."
"Overall, I would rate Axonius an eight out of ten."
"Axonius provides preconfigured dashboards that can be customized to your needs."
"With this solution in place, we are now 100% compliant along with security functions or operations area management."
 

Cons

"The solution's vulnerability testing could be improved."
"The vulnerability assessment for Windows is not that great. It misses out on a lot of vulnerabilities."
"There isn't anything specific that needs improvement."
"Armis could improve its geographic spread and marketing campaigns across regions."
"Armis doesn't have a back intel feature."
"We face difficulties in integrating the product with ticketing tools like ServiceNow."
"We face issues during implementation."
"We have faced issues with the tool's stability."
"We can have fetch cycle issues."
"Axonius can improve on delivering compliance-related features."
"Axonius could improve by increasing their integrations with more technology vendors."
"Adding more detailed descriptions or YouTube videos about specific features would help improve the application."
"For us, the product's deployment phase was a little challenging because we had to deal with other departments and business units."
"One area Axonius can be improved is its integration process, as it is not straightforward; there is a lot involved in cloning the instance and other hard changes that I expect to be fully automated, suggesting an agentless method instead of utilizing agents, which feels somewhat legacy but could be improved."
"For Axonius, I would suggest supporting more ticketing platforms and enhancing API integration directly into the platform rather than just the connector. This would allow for better integration from different systems, possibly into workflows, which I think is currently lacking."
"Regarding the improvement of Axonius, it goes halfway for both the tool and the user. If we set it up quickly from our end, and if the AD groups and all other groups assigned to tag the assets have been tagged correctly, Axonius could not show an error."
