For smaller companies, Tanium is quite a big investment, and one needs to have a considerable setup to make it economically viable. I would recommend it to others with a similar use case. The solution fits the bill at the moment for what we try to do with it. I would rate Tanium at seven and a half to eight overall.
If there was a feature that could group devices with similar problems for troubleshooting, it would be beneficial. Overall, I rate Tanium an eight out of ten.
My advice to others would be that they should use Tanium. As you see in the market, you will find out that for Tanium, when you compare through its SCCM, there are only a few openings in Tanium. But as you will see, the SCCM market is a huge market. As a vulnerability tool, I rate Tanium a ten out of ten. If you ask for the applications, it would be six to seven out of ten. Overall, I rate Tanium a six out of ten.
Tanium is not a difficult solution to maintain, and a specific team was responsible for its maintenance. I suggest being aware of the tool's limitations. Overall, I rate Tanium five out of ten.

Some of the current topics of interest include software as a service based on cyber risk and cyber security. But I would say that would be the most, one of the most prevalent. I would suggest doing your due diligence. I am an independent consultant. I would rate Tanium a seven out of ten.

Try the solution on a reduced scale to get used to the interface so that you don't make mistakes that can be harmful to your environment. On a scale from one to ten, I would rate Tanium at seven.

I'm a customer and end-user. We are using the most current version of the solution in our organization at this time. I'm not sure how the solution is typically deployed. It's great for inventory and even incident response. It's right up there with some other top-notch products. However, in terms of the implementation, getting everything on board, all that sort of thing, a company initially setting it up is going to need help troubleshooting. I would advise a company takes the time to definitely engage with some sort of professional services. It's going to be required. I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

I would recommend the solution for what it is, but not for what it is not. It's actually lacking one major feature and that is mobility which is very important. The lack of this software is why I wouldn't recommend Tanium but in terms of security, deployment and installation, the solution is fine. I would rate this solution a seven out of 10.
From a tool perspective, it is capable. I do not want to comment on how efficient it is because ultimately, I'm not aware of its capability. My opinion is that it is definitely a capable tool and it all depends on planning. It's about how to plan your implementation and leverage its available features. It is very fast. Asset discovery is also very fast. I would rate Tanium a nine out of ten. Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based.

We use it pretty regularly on quite a large scale. I don't think I've heard anyone have any major complaints so far, just the little things. We have been growing quite a bit, so we have been trying out bigger solutions. From a maturity standpoint, we have been bringing in new environments relatively quickly and adding to our existing ones. So, scalability has been a big deal for us. Try it out. The best way to test any of these technologies is implement them with real data. See how your environment works with each network and compare them.
Tanium offers robust endpoint protection, patching, and inventory management, consolidating the functions of tools like BigFix with capabilities in incident response, network security, and cloud or on-premise deployments.Known for real-time capabilities, Tanium provides detailed analytics, security features, and device management.
