Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."I can take proactive actions based on an alert without having to interact with the platform directly."
"It provides the most useful tools for protecting our financial account records from hackers."
"People implementing this solution are concerned with addressing a significant risk, and within the AWS realm, this tool does de-risk substantially."
"Its monitoring and alerts are triggered by a failure or non-compliance with policies. It helps us to be able to act effectively and quickly."
"The solution is scalable."
"On Dome9, you can have reports on compliance, users created, and EAM access to the cloud infrastructure. For example, if some machine is exposed to the Internet, importing and exporting to the Internet when it shouldn't, we get immediate alerts if someone does this type of configuration by mistake. Dome9 is very important because AWS doesn't protect us for this. It is the client's responsibility to make sure that we don't export things to the Internet. This solution helps us ensure that we comply with our security measures."
"It saves time because I can look across the organization. Instead of checking 50 different accounts atomically and spending 15 minutes investigating each, I can spend 15 minutes exploring all 50 accounts. It allows me to quickly look across the org for similar problems when one comes up. That's a huge time saver."
"It learns from behavior, attacks, management, detections, captures packets, real-time analysis, et cetera. It's generating knowledge from a variety of sources for an excellent analysis."
"The most valuable features are vulnerability detection and the scanning capability to enable identification of vulnerabilities across our network."
"The features that are most valuable are the identification, scan features, and the identification of vulnerabilities."
"I find Qualys VM very robust, and it's very useful for vulnerability management and patch management. The value that it brings to my environment is economies of scale. There is no limitation on adding any endpoints. You go by the rule, and it's added once another endpoint is added to our environment. It's automatically installed, and it's less work from our end. It frees up my license automatically if I don't need an endpoint or if my machine is decommissioned. I like the dashboard displays because I don't see any duplication. The most important part is vulnerability management and prioritization. Unlike Symantec, it shows the kind of vulnerability I would want to patch first. It provides a holistic view of the kind of vulnerabilities and the ones I should remediate first. I don't have to do a scan; it just brings up those critical kinds of vulnerabilities like zero-day vulnerabilities and tells me to prioritize them. You have to prioritize these vulnerabilities first and go on with the rest. The dashboard shows me the ones that have been fixed, so I don't have to complete an aging report. The user experience and the graphical interface are good. As it's user-friendly and understandable on an executive level, it brings real value. We also use this solution because it's robust and flexibile."
"The vulnerability management feature is what I used the most. It is a good SaaS product. It is easy to use. It has a nice UI where you can see all the assets and vulnerabilities."
"Qualys VM is very stable."
"There are fewer false positives when using this solution."
"There are many features. Its reliability, ease of installation, ease of use, and the richness of the information provided are the most valuable features."
"It's a good product. After the scan our internet works well. It scans our security posture."
"I strongly advise that the multi-layered security system of Check Point often undergoes updates and new versions keep coming."
"Adding a feature that allows me to easily identify the changes that have been made to the CIS benchmark and update my own policy accordingly would be a valuable addition to Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management."
"Check Point must provide a multi-cloud facility where AWS, Azure, and GCP can seamlessly work together and display posture in an integrated manner."
"I would like to see tighter integration with other compliance tools, like Chef Compliance, in addition to Inspector."
"The security of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management could improve. There are always new security issues coming out."
"They take time to respond or coordinate a meeting since they maintain a schedule that does not fit Latin America very well."
"The solution could be improved with a greater analysis of its Microsoft Security score."
"The entire system is complicated, and the setup process may not cater to the company's demands."
"The price could be better. Asset view is still a legacy feature. I'm not able to extract the information about the asset with complete details. It would be better if they fixed that in the next release. I know Qualys is already working on it, so I'm hopeful it will be available in the next five or six months. That would be something that's changed where I seek improvement."
"Endpoint stability and fault resolution could be improved."
"The reporting in this solution can be improved."
"Sometimes we face a problem with accessing the tool and not getting an expected result. From a technology point of view, they need to look into this."
"The reporting needs improvement. It should generate much more stuff like field reports."
"The ability to manage user accounts and give rights to the operator to know about abnormalities of applications is something that needs improvement."
"The customer support is very bad."
"When tested on Zero day, there were errors."
