I also like the browsing stream. It has a good dashboard.""The support for ARCON ARSIM is very good.""Good for productivity checking."

Cons
"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.""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.""The automation needs to be improved."

"I think areas with shortcomings that need improvement are more integration and automation.""We'd like them to offer better coverage of malware.""The solution is not user-friendly and has room for improvement.""Better automation capabilities would be an improvement.""Rapid7 Metasploit can add a GUI feature because it is only available online.""I would like to see more capabilities, more functions, and more features. More types of attack vectors.""Metasploit cannot be installed on a machine with an antivirus.""At the time I was using it, the graphical user interface needed some improvements."
