Risk-based triage has transformed container security and now prioritizes high-impact threats
The best features Qualys TotalCloud offers currently include managing cloud infrastructure and container security while facing major challenges such as alert fatigue. Traditional vulnerability scanners flag hundreds of CVEs on short-lived Kubernetes containers, some of which have no internet exposure or are gone before we can even triage them. I leverage Qualys TotalCloud to move beyond static CVSS. I use it to implement runtime exposure, correlation risk reprioritization, and shift-left integration. This notifies developers to fix a base image upstream rather than patching live ephemeral instances. In my work with cloud and container security, the biggest operational hurdle was alert fatigue. I use Qualys to shift left from static CVSS severity to context-aware risk prioritization. I correlated raw vulnerability data with real-time risk factors such as public network exposure, active runtime execution, or overly permissive IAM roles. This allows us to immediately drop the priority of isolated containers and escalate lower-severity CVEs that sit on an exposed, high-risk path. We can map these findings directly back to our CI/CD pipelines so developers can patch the root base images upstream. We have drastically cut down the signal-to-noise ratio, saved a lot of manual hours doing triage work, and ensured engineering effort goes directly towards high-impact risk reduction.

Allows us to configure the risk algorithm to suit our specific needs
I would give the easiness of the initial setup a seven out of ten. It can be a bit complex. Some connections are straightforward, but some take a long time. Deploying Brinqa took time, as it was done in phases. Initially, it took about six months before we started getting valuable data from it. Then, it expanded from there. The deployment began with a product demo and contract negotiation. We connected some data sources to Brinqa's cloud service, which was straightforward. We used the default risk ranking algorithm but faced issues with the dashboards, so we customized them to fit our organization's needs over a few years. We depended a lot on Brinqa for the deployment. We had some internal resources, but they lacked the needed skills, so it took time to train our two-man team. Initially, it required one person for maintenance, and they spent most of their time on it.

Automated onboarding has saved hundreds of hours and now standardizes device security globally
In terms of how Ivanti Neurons for UEM can be improved, I think there's potential for automation of some repetitive tasks. The device provisioning process has already become very close to zero-touch, but the patch deployment is still scheduled and policy-driven. As a result, I believe we can reduce endpoint administration further. I also think the number of integrations and the scalability of the tool can be improved, along with customer service, as we've encountered some issues in certain countries. Regarding the needed improvements, particularly concerning integrations or customer service challenges, we have had problems with integration with some third-party tools requiring additional configuration and testing. Occasionally, we also experienced delays between systems, particularly with user group changes and device compliance updates. The accuracy and reliability of output from Ivanti's AI can be improved. We notice that the AI-driven insights are useful, but there are anomalies and some false positives. Since we are still in a validation period, I cannot provide a definitive mark, but I believe that accuracy should be enhanced, especially for more complex and environment-specific issues where human intervention is still needed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I highly recommend Qualys TotalCloud to other users."
"Its dashboards are brilliant. It provides in-depth insights."
"While automatic inventory detection upon connection is a helpful feature, a truly valuable capability would be assessing an environment's security posture against Azure and CIS best practices."
"Its excellent graphical interface makes the scanning process simple."
"The most valuable feature is extensibility."
"If someone were to ask me to review Qualys TotalCloud, I would summarize it as an end-to-end solution for cloud security with visibility and governance-grade controls without needing to manage multiple disconnected tools."
"TotalCloud offers a comprehensive suite of features, including EDR, XDR, and TrueRisk, providing a centralized platform for managing vulnerabilities and security risks."
"If I had to say something positive about the product that brings me the biggest benefit, I would say it has accurate reports, gets new update CVEs, zero-day attack detection, and is easy to manage with its GUI."
"The most valuable features of Brinqa are its data integration capabilities."
"A positive impact of using Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management on my organization is the ability to perform mass updates in the environment, as today we are able to update hundreds of thousands of computers at once."
"Both in terms of features and operations, this is a good solution."
"Ivanti Patch's most valuable features are the patch module and the package distribution."
"They have an excellent support team."
"The security features in Ivanti Neurons for MDM are very effective, which is why we have been distributing it for the past 15 years."
"The solution is good, it's effective in what it is able to achieve and it's easy to use."
"MobileIron UEM is a scalable solution."
"Most of the features are similar to what other tools have, but the UIs are quite user friendly. A beginner could use it."
 

Cons

"In my opinion, what can be improved in Qualys TotalCloud includes pricing and container scanning."
"The cost of Qualys TotalCloud is high and could be more competitive."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"The response part of the Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) module can be improved."
"I chose a rating of nine out of ten because there is a complex interface that sometimes overwhelms new engineers."
"Customer support with Qualys TotalCloud needs a little improvement with the response times."
"Their customer support needs improvement."
"The vulnerability part is good, but the policy compliance module needs improvement because it involves a lot of manual work. Specifically, the remediation part of the controls requires enhancements."
"Brinqa could improve in terms of the speed of their service and resource provision."
"I tried to be a partner of Ivanti and, from this vantage point, the quotes are, perhaps, a bit high."
"We would like the initial setup to be simpler."
"Reporting needs improvement. It is not very useful and lacks depth."
"An improvement Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management needs is a dashboard that shows which devices are not in sync or a proper dashboard that displays all telemetries related to machines with high CPU, RAM, missing patches, or those needing attention, or a health check."
"Sometimes there is a lag with the environment, and we need to refresh before using it."
"I would like to have better support for the application."
"The release of new versions often goes in the wrong direction with Ivanti. The test team or the testing procedures are flawed because they release new versions with numerous basic issues."
"I noticed one thing when comparing Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management with other software in the market, such as Cherwell, where we can see the rating of the person. In Ivanti Autonomous Endpoint Management, I feel the individual ratings and feedback feature is missing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive, but it offers a premier solution with no headaches."
"Qualys TotalCloud is cost-efficient and was selected for its value compared to other products."
"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive."
"Although Qualys TotalCloud is relatively expensive due to its unique automation features, its cost-effectiveness is rated an eight out of ten, with ten being the most costly."

"The solution is affordable."
"The solution is expensive compared to other products."
"For the one that works with SCCM, it is relatively inexpensive at $8 USD per node, yearly. The standalone product has two versions; the one that patches servers is about $45 USD annually and the version that patches workstations is about half that price at $22 USD."
"The price of MobileIron UEM is very good."
"The license can get expensive if you have a lot of nodes."
"My impression is that MobileIron is very expensive."
"While the price is a bit high, it may be equitable with the features one gets with the product, such as that involving the interface."
