We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The support for ARCON ARSIM is very good.""Good for productivity checking.""It is very user friendly. There are not a lot of clicks and buttons. The tool helps me with the installations. The user can do the installation rather than having a technical guide. I also like the browsing stream. It has a good dashboard."

"The prioritization feature is great. I think it has all of the advanced features that we need.""I like that we have many scanners and channels that don't overload. It helps us scan and track easily. Also, the tagging system is good for tagging. We can still use QualysAgent task ID tools even if tags aren't made.""Qualys VM has allowed us to know the vulnerabilities we need to prioritize based on the threat levels and the possible impact if there's an intrusion.""There are fewer false positives when using this solution.""The most valuable features are vulnerability scanning, policy compliance scanning, and tablet for web application scanning.""It's very configurable to adjust impact to systems.""The most recent is VMDR, which provides a comprehensive overview of how to detect, patch, and remediate specific vulnerabilities.""The solution is easy to use."

Cons
"As for what can be improved, definitely pricing. Customers look for pricing and ARCON is a little more expensive than Thycotic. So the pricing model could be improved.""I would love to have all the products. Currently they have all the server operating systems and network operating systems but they should have all the other devices also included, like security devices. That's what I think is missing. They should also improve the license audit part. If I want to do a license audit from this tool, I'm not able to do it right now.""The automation needs to be improved."

"We face issues while scanning multiple assets.""Qualys does have an on-prem solution, but it is very expensive.""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.""Qualys should improve their customer experience. They need to improve the tech support experience and the turnaround time.""What we have found is that the solution is not closely tied with the patch management. It is okay with newer ones, like Windows 10 machines; it gives the correct patch. But for Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008, it does not give us the correct patch so we have to manually identify the patches. This is a major problem.""When you want to cover yourself for scalability, you will be charged for the number you place on the scan itself.""Finding things in management can be quite difficult.""The solution is a bit expensive if you do not have access to discounts."
