We performed a comparison between Armis and Forescout Platform 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 tool is user-friendly and helps to detect vulnerabilities."
"Armis is a straightforward and user-friendly solution."
"The technology is good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is asset tracking."
"Obtaining visibility into the network and connected devices is very simple with this tool. It takes me three minutes to do a base deployment when all the parameters are available."
"The stability is amazing for the Forescout Platform. We have been using Forescout for four years, and no one complained about the stability."
"Forescout has a feature that blocks the endpoint at the point of collection. It sets preconditions and will block the system if those aren't met."
"The visibility is the main benefit. We now know how many devices are connected, what the use for each device is and what kind of devices we have in our environment."
"The product is very easy to work with and easy to deploy."
"The plugins are very robust -- the ability scanner, patch management system, and SQL integrator."
"We think it's simple. We think it's very useful and we really like reports and everything."
"It's one of the tools that has given the federal government visibility into network devices and everything."
"The solution's vulnerability testing could be improved."
"We have faced issues with the tool's stability."
"Armis doesn't have a back intel feature."
"We face difficulties in integrating the product with ticketing tools like ServiceNow."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"They need to handle their Tier 1 cases differently. The biggest negative regarding Forescout is their support. Not having the ability to get instantly transferred to a support engineer for Tier 1 cases is pretty ridiculous."
"The solution needs more definitive pricing. The costs are hard to nail down."
"I should be able to integrate my Forescout with any other third party security technology, to build that connected security strategy."
"Logging would be one area for improvement. When we're troubleshooting, there are not a lot of clear things on Google that we can look up for ourselves. When we have an issue with it, we have to call the company to get the vendors involved. The logging of Forescout is horrible compared to other things that we've used."
"Two things can be improved in the Forescout Platform. First of all, the support for some certain proprietary protocols from other vendors, but they are very widely used. If the TechEx from Cisco, was added to Forescout, then it will be a full solution for me."
"I believe that the overall user experience has not always been preferable."
"When we automate an email to send to a user, sometimes it gets blocked, but that has nothing to do with Forescout. It depends on the mail gateway that we use or integrate with."
