Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities
Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Scales well and technical support is good, but it is expensive
The majority of our customers nowadays are looking forward to having cloud-based control models. However, some of our clients have to keep their data in their own data center in order to satisfy compliance. In summary, compared to the other products that are available in India, technical support and scalability are good. Overall, it is a very good product. That said, there are other tools that meet the feature requirements and are more cost-effective. I would rate this solution a six out of ten.

Manages vulnerabilities effectively over time but needs improvement in web coverage and dashboard flexibility
Most of the dynamic asset tagging we use is manual, not dynamic. To manage the assets, we employed the manual approach because we have a limitation regarding the license, so we don't use the dynamic approach much. I don't know how the configuration assessment has assisted with meeting compliance standards. The product that we use is the on-premise solution where we configure assets and dynamically scan them. However, we use the default policies more, the template, so Rapid7 InsightVM on-premise version is not that effective in the web-related systems. However, it is best on the OS to identify and discover the OS-related vulnerabilities, more of open ports and the discovery of vulnerable ports or services. It would be better to improve Rapid7 InsightVM by including or working better to add web-related templates because it's not that effective in regard to web. I don't know if they may have a separate product regarding the web, but for the on-premise type, they are not strong in this area. I would prefer to see web-related templates in addition to improving the dashboard-related things because the dashboard has been constant for a very long time. It would be better to see various kinds of, perhaps a flexible type of dashboard. If it's not customizable at all, I would want to see the risk and asset over time with more flexibility. The current dashboard is not flexible in this regard; I have to dig down every day, so they should work on this as well, in addition to the web.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Qualys TotalCloud provides a single, prioritized view based on requirements such as identifying the most vulnerable assets and calculating the average time to remediate vulnerabilities."
"One of the features I appreciate is the ability to generate daily reports without relying on anyone else."
"I would rate Qualys TotalCloud ten out of ten."
"I highly recommend Qualys TotalCloud to other users."
"It is a cloud-native app that integrates with both IaaS and SaaS. It seamlessly integrates with other platforms."
"One of Qualys' best features is its categorization, which allows us to see the types of assets, their security postures, and the AI-powered version of the tool."
"By integrating TotalCloud, we have significantly reduced vulnerabilities in our deployment pipeline."
"TotalCloud's best feature is the integration of cloud accounts. It helps with the risk and security posture management of our cloud infrastructure."
"The interface is simple to use."
"In summary, compared to the other products that are available in India, technical support and scalability are good."
"Rapid 7 has positively impacted my organization by reducing the risk to the environment, specifically by reducing the number of vulnerabilities and the number of vulnerable hosts."
"We feel the interface is very good. It is very easy to use, even a nontechnical person can use it."
"It is good and fits well with pretty much all of our use case needs."
"The solution's user interface is good and has some vulnerability prioritization."
"I like Rapid7's scan optimization options."
"The product is scalable."
"Rapid7 gave us the ability to do a lot of that, and it was not a cumbersome tool to implement."
"Customers are generally satisfied and do not ask for drastic price reductions during renewals."
 

Cons

"TotalCloud could improve the classification of vulnerabilities. Specifically, it could enhance the categorization of what aspects fall under patches resolved by OS or software updates and what pertains to configuration adjustments."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"To be honest, I would move out from this tool because it does not give a full view of vulnerability."
"I would appreciate additional integration options to connect Qualys TotalCloud with our other vulnerability management tools."
"In TotalCloud, I would suggest improvements in policy checks to cater to various inventory types like VPCs, subnets, S3 buckets, or IAMs. There is a lack of data segregation according to criticality or inventory."
"Their support could be improved."
"It is already perfect, but they can bring some newer dashboards and customization options for the dashboard. It would be great to be able to include on-prem assets on the dashboard."
"I would like the ability to disable certain default built-in policies as they can be misleading when creating dashboards. That is the top one."
"There are not many partners for this product in India, which makes the OEM very difficult to reach."
"Compared to similar products by other vendors, this is an expensive one."
"It gives false positives at times, and this a problem. It causes problems with reporting."
"This solution creates false-positives which can cause issues with reporting."
"Customer support in Rapid7 InsightVM could be improved. The response time needs improvement."
"The technical support is good in their knowledge, but they are a little slow."
"Rapid7 could be easier to manage."
"It is still not a fully cloud-based solution. It will be helpful for customers if it is a complete cloud solution. It is a hybrid solution at the moment."
"There are certain limitations because of the product being used on a hybrid model. Rapid7 InsightVM doesn't offer a solution purely in the cloud."
"The team needs to improve the speed and focus on the new bandwidth feed. Sometimes, it takes a while to scan, especially with new updates."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It isn't cheap, but it's reasonable. It helps us to manage things with very few resources."
"The cost is high, but it meets our organizational needs."
"The pricing is comparable. It is built into our other product, so I cannot piecemeal it. It is a part of our subscription."
"While Qualys TotalCloud's pricing is currently acceptable, it is becoming increasingly expensive and may soon be considered overpriced."
"Although Qualys TotalCloud is relatively expensive due to its unique automation features, its cost-effectiveness is rated an eight out of ten, with ten being the most costly."
"Qualys TotalCloud offers cost-effective licensing flexibility."
"Qualys TotalCloud is cost-efficient and was selected for its value compared to other products."
"Its price seems higher compared to other tools, but it is worth it. If they could adjust the pricing and make it comparable with other tools, that would be great."
"Compared to similar products by other vendors, this is an expensive one."
"In some cases, we procure the licenses. In some cases, the customers directly buy the license from Rapid7."
"The license is annual and this is the optimal approach when it comes to most software."
"The solution's pricing is better than Nexus which charges a high amount for very little use."
"We purchase annual licenses."
"Its price is too high. My only concern or issue with Rapid7 is its pricing."
"This solution is expensive, but it's fine for us as we have an open budget for security solutions. Protection and having the system secured is more important."
"It is less expensive compared to other competitors."
"Comparing the price with the value that we receive, I am not happy with it."
