"The two most valuable features for us are the central firewall administrator and the real-time cloud compliance monitoring."
"It presents great visibility of the traffic flow of our cloud, providing information on what data and users are circulating and in the event of a threat, it immediately identifies them by providing detailed and granular information from our entire environment."
"The dashboard is intuitive. You know if you're compliant or not, and then it gives you a remediation plan."

"It's really beneficial for scanning and interacting with the agent."
"The most valuable features of Qualys VM are its ability to do proper vulnerability assessment. It has a lot of updates for all the vulnerability databases from all over the globe. It's an amazing solution when it comes to the versatility of the features it has. Additionally, the reports are very good. It generates very detailed reports about the vulnerabilities inside the environment"
"Qualys VM is very stable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to run different capabilities with the same agent. With only one agent, we can have EDR, vulnerability management, compliance and some basic SaaS security capabilities."
"The Vulnerability Management and Patch Management features are the most valuable features of this solution."
"Intuitive and easy to use."
"The solution shows us classic categories, including high, medium, and low risks. It also shows critical items, and that gives us the advantage of prioritizing things."
"The false positives can be annoying at times."
"Integration could be improved."
"Currently, worldwide, there are many companies of all sizes that do not understand the value that their data has, but even with all existing clouds, they also do not understand what the shared responsibility model is. They only assume that by having a cloud, the provider must ensure safety, when the truth is that the providers only secure their sites. Everything we do in the cloud and how we configure it is actually our responsibility."
"The Check Point solution is somewhat expensive."
"The entire system is complicated, and the setup process may not cater to the company's demands."

"In general, for the product to be successful, they need to improve security, and configuration detection."
"It's not very user-friendly at times and requires in-depth understanding. So, a layman or someone new to Qualys won't be able to easily understand it. You need education to use the solution."
"This solution could be improved by extending the agent capabilities to different operating systems including Mac and Linux. We would also like the capability to easily check for vulnerability in assets in the IOTs."
"Integration could be better. When you think about scanning, it's not used just with this product alone but with other Qualys products. If you think about the bundle, the product itself is good. But integration with other products and packages has space for improvement. They should also offer a better price for bundles."
"Qualys VM could improve by having more skilled support personnel."
"Qualys should improve their customer experience. They need to improve the tech support experience and the turnaround time."
"Qualys VM's vulnerability scan could be improved, especially the number of CVE numbers it can manage at a time."
"It would be nice to have an all-in-one solution that was automated and could handle the scanning and reports as well as the patching and updating."
"The solution is a bit expensive if you do not have access to discounts."
