Pros
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software.""The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps.""The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed.""Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively.""For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user.""The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization.""I'm not so familiar with the tool but I like the interaction of the console to the picture. Patching is the primary model I have been focusing on for the last couple of weeks. So I have created a proof of concept environment and have been checking the available features.""The security features are very valuable."

Cons
"The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities.""The reporting could be improved.""The solution lacks mobility.""They could improve the UI.""The main issues are the network connection because different customers have issues with their networks. It's difficult implementing this type of solution because the network is the main feature in the architecture for these types of solutions. Tanium could improve by creating some network optimization.""I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments.""The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes.""It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model."

This approach is a complete game-changer, which is why some of the world’s largest, most complex organizations choose XM Cyber to help eradicate risk. Founded by top executives from the Israeli cyber intelligence community, XM Cyber has offices in North America, Europe, and Israel.
