We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""We could manage our entire IP range with the solution."

More Fortra Tripwire IP360 Pros →

"Detects new hosts along with vulnerabilities.""The reporting functionality is great.""Performs automated, regular scans in the network.""Great web application security for scanning.""Tech support is helpful.""It is a simple solution that makes scanning easy. You just give it a scheduled task, and it will do everything for you.""The most valuable features are vulnerability scanning, policy compliance scanning, and tablet for web application scanning.""The prioritization feature is great. I think it has all of the advanced features that we need."

Cons
"I am not very impressed by the technical support.""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.""We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running."

More Fortra Tripwire IP360 Cons →

"One of the biggest issues from the clients' perspective is that all Qualys computing is on the cloud.""They should make it accessible for more operating systems.""Integration could be better. When you think about scanning, it's not used just with this product alone but with other Qualys products. If you think about the bundle, the product itself is good. But integration with other products and packages has space for improvement. They should also offer a better price for bundles.""The only improvement I can think of is on the implementation side. At times it is a bit slow.""The reporting in this solution can be improved.""This solution could be improved by extending the agent capabilities to different operating systems including Mac and Linux. We would also like the capability to easily check for vulnerability in assets in the IOTs.""It's quite complex on the way it is set up, so it takes a fair bit of time in order to get your head around it in order to deploy it. Once you've deployed it, then you're never confident on the versions of the browsers and the SSL certificates, etc. You have to always go back into Qualys and check.""I would like to have CSPM, a continuous scan-like cloud added to the solution."
