Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It helped with some of the regulatory requirements. It also helped with some of the security analytics and analysis. It was worthwhile from that perspective.""The reporting features are good and there are many built-in reports that can be quickly configured.""The most valuable feature is that it provides a simple English recommendation on actions that you need to take once a vulnerability is discovered."

More IBM Guardium Vulnerability Assessment Pros →

"The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors.""Tanium’s linear-chain architecture is valuable.""The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization.""I like the tool's incident response and security patching.""Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient.""The security features are very valuable.""I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel.""The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed."

Cons
"It was not as easy to use. The user-friendliness of it was somewhat lower than what I was expecting. It was also lacking in terms of the ease of the setup. There should be an automatic agent for deployment.""The interface could be improved by having sub-groups of tests, ultimately making the process of collecting tests faster.""Building policies is not that easy. There are some things that are turned off by default, for example, displaying values."

"Tanium’s scalability could be improved.""The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities.""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.""Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based.""I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments.""The main issues are the network connection because different customers have issues with their networks. It's difficult implementing this type of solution because the network is the main feature in the architecture for these types of solutions. Tanium could improve by creating some network optimization.""The solution lacks mobility.""Any movement into a SaaS solution has challenges since the processes and data flows are not well defined. Hence, you need to build it at the same time."
