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 →

"Monitors workstations and servers for vulnerabilities and creates reports.""Vulnerability management is the most valuable one and it’s a must in every organization.""Tech support is helpful.""Performs automated, regular scans in the network.""It gives a very good overview of the inventory assessment process, and it can be accessed across our company because it's a global tool.""I am impressed with the VMDR feature.""The most valuable features are vulnerability scanning, policy compliance scanning, and tablet for web application scanning.""The most valuable feature of the solution is the external channel."

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 →

"Some of the older features could be polished instead of focusing on releasing new features.""Qualys could be improved in its overall performance compared to other vulnerability management or scanning tools.""I would like to see this solution more developed and competitive in the Cloud space.""Could use additional security for the app.""The reporting and dashboards could improve in Qualys VM. However, they have improved since the previous versions.""They have integrated with other third parties, but it is still not viable.""There seems to be a lack of easy onboarding into Qualys.""The solution is a bit expensive if you do not have access to discounts."
