Featured Reviews

Israel Cavazos Landini - PeerSpot reviewer
Weekly insights and risk analysis facilitate informed security decisions
I appreciate the weekly insights Zafran provides, which include critical topics for networks and IT security, allowing us to evaluate which insights apply to our environment. The organization score feature is valuable to keep the leadership team updated on how our infrastructure fares security-wise. The applicable risk level versus base risk level feature is beneficial because prior to Zafran, we only used the base risk level, but now understand that risk depends on the asset itself. Zafran is an excellent tool.

Enhanced endpoint security with effective patch management and frequent scans
The most valuable feature was the patch management, which was very effective for endpoint-centric solutions requiring remediation of vulnerabilities. ManageEngine Vulnerability Manager Plus was the perfect fit for managing these requirements. We improved the number of scans and patches performed from four times per year per computer to four times per month.
Shreevinayak Deshpande - PeerSpot reviewer
Makes vulnerability management efficient with a single pane of glass and daily report generation
There are areas for improvement. Initially, when onboarding Vulcan Cyber, the setup and configuration was more complex than expected with a user-friendly approach. This aspect can be enhanced. An important area is performance and speed, as Vulcan Cyber often lacks speed when exporting reports. The team might have to work on scaling up servers. When we click on a vulnerability, it takes ten seconds to pop up a window and show the entire content. Instead of that, they can put a down arrow, and all the details should be shown on clicking the arrow. This will prevent that ten-second delay. Another area for improvement is providing support and documentation for their tool. Users should have access to easy-to-understand trial documentation for reference.

"Vulcan Cyber has helped reduce our organization’s mean time to remediation."
"One of the features that I find valuable is the ability to bifurcate the report according to the many options available."
"Now that the solution is onboarded, we are saving a lot of time. We're saving roughly four to ten hours a week."
"Vulcan Cyber gives the remediation team the focus points."
"Vulcan Cyber is a very good tool."
"I was part of the initial deployment. It was pretty easy. To fully deploy, it took about three or four weeks."

"There is a lot of flexibility in exporting, making it a really good feature. The exporting flexibility based on application type is commendable and provides significant value."
 

Cons

"I think the ability to have some enhanced reporting capabilities is something they can improve on, as they have good reports but we have asked for some specific reporting enhancements."
"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."
"The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements."
"The integration with third-party solutions such as ticketing solutions or CMDB solutions can be improved."
"One area that needs improvement is the contract management. My legal team required some partner requirements for that, and ManageEngine could not support it."
"The user interface is the only drawback of the product."
"One area that needs improvement is the contract management. My legal team required some partner requirements for that, and ManageEngine could not support it."
"The integration with third-party solutions such as ticketing solutions or CMDB solutions can be improved."
"I would rate the tool between six and seven because there have been instances when the tool was down, and I couldn't access Cyber reports. Additionally, the Vulcan Cyber team made changes to the tool and did not notify us."
"There are several areas needing improvement. The product helps, but the reporting relies heavily on Power BI. It is limited to graphical views and requires additional filtering, posing operational challenges."
"Improvements are needed in providing more concise details on how to apply remedies for particular vulnerabilities. I would like to have more information about the remedies for particular vulnerabilities so that we do not have to go through the CVE numbers and relevant pages to check for a particular vulnerability and its remedy."
"We've faced situations where we required support on a Friday, and support wasn't available."
"Initially, when onboarding Vulcan Cyber, the setup and configuration was more complex than expected with a user-friendly approach. This aspect can be enhanced."
"If there was a way for me to connect to the vendor directly from the application, it would be helpful."
"We have the highest privilege in the application, and at least for members with the highest privilege, having the capability to reach out to the vendor directly from the application would be beneficial."
"Monitoring of the evolution of campaigns and perhaps having more customized options for monitoring them would be great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price is very reasonable."
"Its pricing is quite fair compared to what is out there in the market, especially compared to the tool from Microsoft. It is a SaaS platform that has an annual cost, so it is something that is already used by many companies. It is quite affordable."
"Our leadership knows better about the pricing. As per my knowledge, which might not be accurate, its price can come down."
