Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We could manage our entire IP range with the solution.""Tripwire IP360 is a very stable solution.""It's become the pinnacle point for anything that enters the network or anything that's passing through to production to first be affected by IP360, hardened, and up to standard. For our integrity management, one was deployed in the bank about two years ago and that's still going to expand the usage and the product itself. That will go hand in hand with training and expanding the product as for where it's deployed."

More Fortra Tripwire IP360 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."

Cons
"I am not very impressed by the technical support.""We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running.""The reporting functions can use improvement. There is room for growth because reporting functions differ a lot depending on what you're going to output. It depends on whether it's for technical or senior management and how it's interpreted. There could be growth within the reporting functionality side."

More Fortra Tripwire IP360 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."
