Find out what your peers are saying about IBM, Imperva, Oracle and others in Database Security."The dashboard is very simple. It has an easy to use interface."
"It is extremely stable, and can expand as per our needs due to its stability."
"The biggest thing, for us lately, has been their cloud tools. They're like Intercept X from Sophos, where they'll test for ransomware. Fortinet has the same sort of set up with their cloud devices. So your firewall picks up something suspicious, it sends it up to the cloud for analysis. We also have their in-house antivirus. Having different antivirus checkpoints throughout the network is a good thing as well."
"We use it to protect files and to prevent users from browsing them while they are being used."
"The solution is very good at preventing intrusions. You can definitely rely on this solution to cover your security."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the security aspects."
"It gives a very good overview of the inventory assessment process, and it can be accessed across our company because it's a global tool."
"The process of defining and discovering scans is organized efficiently."
"Performs automated, regular scans in the network."
"I am impressed with the VMDR feature."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the external channel."
"Qualys VM's most valuable feature is automatic detection."
"I find the solution's dashboard interesting...The response time is fine. You can pull up reports without dragging or consuming bandwidth."
"It's very configurable to adjust impact to systems."
"We had some issues trying to fix some critical bugs, such as the SSL encryption."
"Some use case analyses could be improved."
"They need to improve the web filter to make it more user-friendly."
"The pricing of this solution is a little bit on the high side and can be improved."
"I would like better APIs and integration with other products, like Python and SQL."
"I'm an old-school guy. I really don't like web GUI interfaces. They're always slow and laggy and their design is restricted, whereas a binary deployment for an admin tool is always faster, easier, more flexible. I would like that kind of functionality from Fortinet."
"They should make it accessible for more operating systems."
"Could use additional security for the app."
"I do not like that all of the data is stored on the cloud."
"Sometimes we face a problem with accessing the tool and not getting an expected result. From a technology point of view, they need to look into this."
"The price could be better. Asset view is still a legacy feature. I'm not able to extract the information about the asset with complete details. It would be better if they fixed that in the next release. I know Qualys is already working on it, so I'm hopeful it will be available in the next five or six months. That would be something that's changed where I seek improvement."
"The reporting and the GUI need improvements."
"I would like to see more accuracy in detections, better reporting capabilities, and better dashboard download capabilities."
"The reporting needs improvement. It should generate much more stuff like field reports."
