Executive Summary

Review summaries and opinions

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

ROI

Sentiment score
7.5
Claroty Platform helps protect against vulnerabilities, delivering positive outcomes and cost-benefit analysis for critical infrastructure applications.
Sentiment score
6.9
Kandji streamlines IT management, reduces deployment costs, and boosts efficiency, enabling single-person management for hundreds of devices.
If my infrastructure is critical infrastructure, the Claroty Platform saves time and resources.
Senior Consultant at Payatu
The time saved includes processes such as software installation, as previously we needed to take a user device remotely, but with Kandji, we can initiate software installation from the back end, which is a significant time saver.
Tech Support Engineer at Aleph
We went from one hour for resolution time per device to 15 minutes, allowing us to save more than 50 hours of support time in a year.
IT Corporate Engineer at Shippo
I have seen a return on investment with Kandji, estimating that time saved is at least 20 to 30%, as individuals do not have to figure out which security updates to carry out themselves since the notification is pushed for them to review and install.

Scalability Issues

7.8
Claroty Platform is praised for scalability, adaptability in cloud and on-premise, and effective multi-location deployment despite minor scaling challenges.
Sentiment score

Kandji scales well for small to medium businesses, efficiently accommodating growth, but may challenge very large organizations needing flexibility.
The Claroty Platform offers a scalable solution that accommodates both cloud and on-premise deployments.
Associate Solution Architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
I would rate the scalability as eight or nine as the only issue faced was with login challenges, which could be improved.
Cyber Security Security at PwC
The way the Claroty Platform has considered and included the active scanning part has made it quite scalable.
Senior Consultant at Payatu
Kandji's scalability is quite good, though I do see a concern once organizations start getting really large and need more flexibility.
IT Support Technician at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
I think Kandji is a perfect choice for growing small companies that become medium-sized or even bigger.
IT Operation Manager at a retailer with 201-500 employees
Kandji's scalability is perfect, as my organization grew from 180 to almost 300 devices with no bottlenecks.

Room For Improvement

The Claroty Platform requires improvements in detection, integration, UI, pricing, documentation, training, and vulnerability management for better performance.
Kandji users want more customization, improved reliability, better pricing, and enhanced features to match competitors for greater satisfaction.
Additionally, reducing the overall cost of hardware and software solutions would be beneficial.
Associate Solution Architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
As AI is booming now, there are concerns about AI security.
Security Consultant at Forcespot
Sometimes, these CVEs are not actually related to the device in the firmware at the site.
Senior Consultant at Payatu
The simplicity and straightforwardness are its strongest attributes.
IT Support Technician at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
However, it often takes more than thirty minutes to execute the command, and sometimes it fails.
TechOps Engineer at a financial services firm with 201-500 employees
I hope there is an easier way to sandbox people's bring your own device devices because when we're doing SOC 2, it really wants us to sandbox things so that if someone were to take a device that is not ours, we could delete just our data off there and not theirs.
SysAdmin at a recreational facilities/services company with 11-50 employees
 

Setup Cost

Claroty Platform is expensive yet valued for free deployment, with costs justified by its robust security features.
Kandji's expensive pricing involves a yearly fee, suitable for large organizations, requiring sales engagement for non-disclosed costs.
One unique aspect of Claroty is that users get all the deployments for free.
VP of Products at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
The cost of the Claroty Platform is comparatively high.
Associate Solution Architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The cost is as per the standard market.
Security Consultant at Forcespot
It is cheap.
TechOps Engineer at a financial services firm with 201-500 employees
The pricing is not published publicly, requiring interaction with sales representatives for details.
Cloud Ops Lead at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
While it might be on the expensive side compared to Jamf Pro, it is closer in pricing to other MDMs such as Microsoft Intune, which comes with the EMS E3 license.

Valuable Features

Claroty Platform enhances network management with real-time monitoring and threat detection, offering secure access and comprehensive vulnerability insights.
Kandji simplifies device management with user-friendly features and automation, enhancing security and efficiency for diverse teams managing devices.
The ability to detect and classify assets, assess vulnerabilities, and manage patches and updates effectively is highly beneficial.
Associate Solution Architect at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
They offer threat detection, asset management, vulnerability management, and remote access, which makes them the sole vendor in the OT security space to offer all three services.
VP of Products at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Additionally, their SRA solution, the Secure Remote Access solution, is very useful for industrial environments.
Security Consultant at Forcespot
Kandji has impacted my organization positively by definitely increasing security because it notifies you when an update is ready to be installed, and if you do not install it within a reasonable time frame, it would automatically install it.
Cloud Ops Lead at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
It is reliable, a modern approach to managing Apple devices, and with features in blueprints, smart apps, and consistently reliable performance, I do not think Jamf really comes close.
IT Support Technician at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
The Auto Apps function is brilliant. It takes 20 seconds to push out a new app, and it automatically updates. This function really saves time.

Senior Consultant at Payatu
Passive scanning excels and support proves invaluable
Regarding the cons of the Claroty Platform, it is not about the deployment, but rather the identification. The Claroty Platform becomes too noisy when it gives numerous CVEs related to vendor match. Sometimes, these CVEs are not actually related to the device in the firmware at the site. The Claroty Platform identifies effectively but sometimes identifies many CVEs which might not be the actual issue in certain scenarios.

Strong security structure has supported fast Mac and iOS administration with minimal IT effort
One area for improvement for Kandji would be having a bigger suite of applications. I noticed that some of the niche apps our data software firm needs were not in the regular library. We were able to use the custom app feature to create those apps ourselves, but I would love it if Kandji could expand the library. I also wish Kandji could lock down different ports on MacBooks based on which ones we wanted to shut down, and I hope there is an easier way to sandbox people's bring your own device devices because when we're doing SOC 2, it really wants us to sandbox things so that if someone were to take a device that is not ours, we could delete just our data off there and not theirs. An improvement needed for Kandji would be the ability to remote into devices. I would appreciate something that is really reliable for that without having to buy third-party software.
