Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."We really liked its ease of implementation against our Microsoft Azure environment."
"The automatic learning and an AI engine help to find more modern vulnerability problems."
"We can monitor each activity from our mobile devices, so there is complete visibility of our cloud traffic flows, with threat intelligence provided by Check Point."
"The most valuable features of CloudGuard CNAPP are its reporting capabilities for aggregating vulnerability information and scoring."
"The most valuable features of CloudGuard CNAPP are its compliance engine and auto-remediation features."
"The comprehensive security for IaaS and PaaS cloud assets provides efficient security awareness to all the teams."
"The visibility in our cloud environment is the most valuable feature."
"The solution has intelligence that integrates with a range of threat intelligence feeds, including Check Point's ThreatCloud, to provide real-time intelligence on emerging threats."
"I find Qualys VM very robust, and it's very useful for vulnerability management and patch management. The value that it brings to my environment is economies of scale. There is no limitation on adding any endpoints. You go by the rule, and it's added once another endpoint is added to our environment. It's automatically installed, and it's less work from our end. It frees up my license automatically if I don't need an endpoint or if my machine is decommissioned. I like the dashboard displays because I don't see any duplication. The most important part is vulnerability management and prioritization. Unlike Symantec, it shows the kind of vulnerability I would want to patch first. It provides a holistic view of the kind of vulnerabilities and the ones I should remediate first. I don't have to do a scan; it just brings up those critical kinds of vulnerabilities like zero-day vulnerabilities and tells me to prioritize them. You have to prioritize these vulnerabilities first and go on with the rest. The dashboard shows me the ones that have been fixed, so I don't have to complete an aging report. The user experience and the graphical interface are good. As it's user-friendly and understandable on an executive level, it brings real value. We also use this solution because it's robust and flexibile."
"The solution shows us classic categories, including high, medium, and low risks. It also shows critical items, and that gives us the advantage of prioritizing things."
"Monitors workstations and servers for vulnerabilities and creates reports."
"Tech support is helpful."
"The biggest benefit is from a security operations perspective, where we are able to drive our security posture upwards by remediating any discovered vulnerabilities."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The most recent is VMDR, which provides a comprehensive overview of how to detect, patch, and remediate specific vulnerabilities."
"The prioritization feature is great. I think it has all of the advanced features that we need."
"One feature of the product that I would like to enhance is the possibility to connect to vulnerability management platforms so that the issues that emerge from the scans can then be ingested directly into the vulnerability management process."
"It should have some options to activate API calls to the platform in the cloud, another improvement would be that when the rules are colonized and they want to be published."
"I’d like to see more integration with third-party tools. For example, it would be helpful to have an integration between Dome9 and ServiceNow to manage security incidents and security changes."
"I would like to see Test B functions at the application access level."
"The security of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management could improve. There are always new security issues coming out."
"Scalability, particularly in workload protection, is an area that needs improvement."
"The rules are not well-tuned, and many of them generate false positives or nonsensical results."
"They take time to respond or coordinate a meeting since they maintain a schedule that does not fit Latin America very well."
"Qualys VM's vulnerability scan could be improved, especially the number of CVE numbers it can manage at a time."
"The IoT scan is not great."
"The reporting in this solution can be improved."
"The customer support is very bad."
"Qualys should improve their customer experience. They need to improve the tech support experience and the turnaround time."
"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."
"We are moving away from Qualys to Defender ATP because I find that Defender ATP is much better at prioritizing the vulnerabilities that I should be looking at."
"I would like to see this solution simplified to work more easily in a multi-cloud environment."
