We performed a comparison between Portnox Clear and ThreatLocker Protect based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Network Access Control (NAC) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution has a valuable reporting feature."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"I like the fact that you can take your device anywhere and still have that visibility from anywhere because it's agent-based."
"The great thing is that if you get a malicious email and you try to run something, ThreatLocker is not going to let it do anything. It is not going to let anything infect your network."
"ThreatLocker Allowlisting has all of these features integrated into one console, making it effective."
"We use ThreatLocker's Allowlisting to whitelist specific applications and prevent unauthorized software from running."
"The most valuable feature is selective elevation, which allows elevating an individual process to admin privilege without granting admin privilege to that user, which has been by far the most useful feature outside of the overall solution itself."
"Feature-wise, the learning mode and the fact that it's blocking everything are the most valuable. I don't see why more companies don't use the type of product."
"While it can be frustrating at times, we appreciate the low-level security provided by the application whitelist."
"Application control, ring-fencing, and storage control are the most important features, followed closely by elevation."
"The interface is clean and well-organized, making it simple to navigate and find what we need."
"From a resource perspective, the OEM can do better in terms of resource utilization."
"I believe there is a lot of room for improvement in terms of integration."
"As there are no agents in Portnox Clear, the customers of the product cannot download any agents on their devices, making them unsure if the product offers proper security."
"There are some times when applications get submitted, the hashes don't really line up."
"More visibility in the built-ins would be nice."
"We identified several areas that we would like to see improved."
"Something we have come up against a couple of times is that we have two clients that are software developers. They create software that doesn't have digital signatures and that's not easy to categorize or whitelist with ThreatLocker. We have to go in and make custom rules to allow them to do their work and to be protected from malicious threats."
"If you have a thousand computers with ThreatLocker agents on them, when you approve or create a new policy saying that Adobe Reader that matches this hashtag and meets certain criteria is allowed to be installed, it applies at the top level or the organization level. It applies to every computer in the company. When you make that new policy and push it out and it goes out and updates all of the clients. Unfortunately, at this time, it does not look like they stagger the push-out."
"The reporting could be improved."
"One area I see for improvement is in the visibility of support tickets within the ThreatLocker ticketing system."
"ThreatLocker could offer more flexible training, like online or offline classes after hours. The fact that they even provide weekly training makes it seem silly to suggest, but some people can't do it during the day, so they want to train after work. They could also start a podcast about issues they see frequently and what requires attention. A podcast would be helpful to keep us all apprised about what's going on and/or offline training for those people who can't train during the week."
