The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps.

I'm not so familiar with the tool but I like the interaction of the console to the picture. Patching is the primary model I have been focusing on for the last couple of weeks. So I have created a proof of concept environment and have been checking the available features.

Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient.

I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel.

Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively.

The solution can give a lot of false positives.

It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model.

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.

I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments.

Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session.

The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes.

The performance could improve in future releases. We have had performance issues in specialized web environments, but overall I think the problems are less than 2% of the computer systems being used.
