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.

Centralized policies have improved remote endpoint control and have simplified data visibility
The integration is not simple and easy. It requires experienced users or people who have done the implementation. When certain policies are applied, they do not immediately push the policies. For example, we manage endpoint device USB access. We set a policy to block it, but it does not come into effect immediately. Sometimes it takes three or four days for it to reflect. That is a pain point. I have raised this issue with support as well, but they said that I need to limit the number of devices in the policy. In terms of application deployment, for us, it was seamless.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I have had a very good experience with the Claroty Platform."
"The solution's asset management is really great compared to Dragos or Nozomi."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the map, which shows everything that is connected and communicates with each other."
"I believe the two main aspects where Claroty stands out are their ability to provide a complete platform and their OT-specific focus."
"I like how the tool does passive and active discovery and threat detection and shows risks, recommendations, and vulnerabilities. It gives risk scores and gathers everything in one place - IP, device name, etc. We can integrate it with other tools for overall network mapping. It's useful for audits, compliance, and monitoring of all devices in the industry. It provides both monitoring and control. We also have SRA for incident response, which lets us search all alerts if we deploy the Claroty Platform."
"Claroty identifies all vulnerabilities available in our environment."
"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays, boosts productivity, and allows secure remote access to engineers through advanced methods while providing seamless integration with legacy systems and supporting both passive and active reconnaissance."
"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays."
"For inventory purposes, it's from one of the best things on the scene, as you can get live inventory."
"Tanium is a very good product and I would rate it eight or nine out of ten."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps."
"The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors."
"The security features are very valuable."
"Tanium is used for endpoint management, specifically patching and configuration management."
 

Cons

"We face issues in the alert investigation area because it does not properly give the alert communication patterns."
"The graphical user interface is quite poor."
"I think the only issue is that the hardware Claroty uses is expensive."
"The product could be improved in terms of user interface design."
"There is room for improvement in the user interface to make it more vibrant and interactive, similar to IT tools."
"Introducing an AI chatbot to assist you when you have doubts could be beneficial."
"There is room for improvement in the user interface to make it more vibrant and interactive, similar to IT tools."
"Occasionally, I face a login problem despite entering the correct password."
"Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session."
"The problem or challenge is a pre-sales and go-to strategy for the SMB market delivered through a channel or model. It's very convoluted and vague, which leads to some confusion about the various types of modules, and the device-to-seat cost is extremely difficult to calculate."
"Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features."
"Tanium required local admin or root rights on Mac devices, which did not comply with our security policies. This made the solution less suitable for our restrictive environment."
"The main issues are the network connection because different customers have issues with their networks."
"It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model."
"The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities."
"There are some bugs in the product. The tool needs to improve in the area of reporting."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a bit expensive compared to other solutions."
"The tool is quite expensive."
"The licensing for physical devices is cheap, but the software version is expensive. The software version costs around 26-28 dollars. I was surprised and even double-checked. It was shocking."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"The product's pricing differs from region to region depending on negotiations and the number of endpoints."
"The solution is expensive but it's a good investment."
"Tanium is a more expensive solution in Latin America than some of the competitors, such as BigFix."
"It is higher than some competitors in the market."
"The solution offers value for money."
"It's an expensive solution. It would be nice if the cost were lower."
