We performed a comparison between Forescout Platform and Nozomi Networks based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IoT Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The initial setup is quite simple. It's not too complex or difficult to set up."
"It allows for good detection of all the vendor products we have on-site."
"We use the Forescout Platform for device visibility and control in our network. It's very helpful for tracking malicious or unusual activity. We use it to track which ports are open, which machines are running specific services, and to identify vulnerabilities. For example, there was a vulnerability related to SMB, and we could use the product to determine which machines inside our organization were allowing SMB traffic."
"The scalability is good."
"Being able to sort on device types or devices with open ports is helpful when narrowing down assets of possible misconfigured devices that may be vulnerable on the network. We can take action on those devices based off of corporate policy."
"The user interface is quite simple."
"Ease of deployment There's a great support team that becomes actively engaged whenever we encounter issues. Their technical support is amazing. Good documentation is available. The product is stable. The solution is highly scalable. I recommend using the solution because it gives verified control over the environment. It has a great visibility feature."
"The plugins are very robust -- the ability scanner, patch management system, and SQL integrator."
"Provides security for our operational technology environment for OT and IoT."
"The feature I like best is its stability."
"The most valuable feature of Nozomi Networks is its security features."
"When adding what is in scope to a policy, it would be nice if you could select multiple policies instead of one policy at a time to add what is in the scope for network segmentation. I have found that during the install and configuration of the policies that if you want to modify multiple policies or enable multiple policies that you need to define what is in the scope (IP range or segments) one rule at a time. This caused some slow downs when implementing policies."
"Forescout Platform isn't flexible with connections to devices like printers and forces you to re-enter details like the MAC address after any breakdowns."
"The initial setup was complex."
"Forescout Platform could improve the vulnerability management as well as the control on the endpoint, which needs to be connected to my network."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"Better integration with third-party vendors is needed because as it is now, the list of third-party solutions that we can integrate and automate is quite limited."
"Custom integrations need to be better."
"If older network devices are used there can be some compatibility issues while using the Forescout Platform. Additionally, if the switches that are deployed in your infrastructure are not captured properly to the endpoints there might be some difficulties with Forescout Platform trying to monitor the network traffic. Traffic management is an area the vendor should work on."
"The solution should include an integration library."
"Proof of concept could be improved. It could be more tangible to the customer and the end users to have a video presentation or something like that."
"It should support more programmable logic controllers (PLCs)."
Forescout Platform is ranked 1st in IoT Security with 69 reviews while Nozomi Networks is ranked 2nd in IoT Security with 3 reviews. Forescout Platform is rated 8.4, while Nozomi Networks is rated 9.4. The top reviewer of Forescout Platform writes "We can go granular on each endpoint, quarantine non-compliant machines, and target vulnerabilities through scripting". On the other hand, the top reviewer of Nozomi Networks writes "Has good security features and can be used for OT visibility". Forescout Platform is most compared with Cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine), Aruba ClearPass, Fortinet FortiNAC, Armis and Tenable Security Center, whereas Nozomi Networks is most compared with Claroty Platform, Tenable OT Security, Dragos, Armis and Microsoft Defender for IoT.
