Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Infoblox, TitanHQ and others in Domain Name System (DNS) Security."The main advantages with Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection are the dashboards, the reporting system, and they have the GUI interface."
"The solution helps to identify and mitigate DNS attacks."
"Infoblox offers granularity and advanced DNS protection to mitigate DNS attacks. It's a very secure solution."
"It is a stable solution."
"The solution's user interface is very smooth compared to other products."
"Grid high availability technology ensured network reliability, resilient network services, failover, recovery, and seamless maintenance."
"The most valuable feature of Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection is its performance and visibility."
"Centralized management of DNS, DHCP, and IPAM helped us a lot in simplifying and automating the management of network and services."
"We also like the flexibility in their licensing."
"The most valuable feature is the certificate management."
"Qualys VM is very stable."
"Vulnerability management is the most valuable one and it’s a must in every organization."
"It's very configurable to adjust impact to systems."
"It's a good product. After the scan our internet works well. It scans our security posture."
"The prioritization feature is great. I think it has all of the advanced features that we need."
"They also have threat detection which maps threats. There is a feed that comes from Qualys when a new vulnerability is found. It tells us which machines are infected with that vulnerability."
"The service monitoring information could be simplified of this appliance and the information displayed on the dashboards could be improved. I have not found one dashboard to be perfect. For example, in Splunk, I can create a dashboard in Grafana. However, in Grafana, it takes a very long time to create them. There should be another API to do it better."
"I think only the technical documentation and administration of box could be a little bit improved."
"Infoblox lacks an extensive product portfolio."
"There is a steep learning curve to be able to use Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection well."
"They are not supporting high query logging. They have a very limited size for the syslog, so they are usually asking for external storage, external network, and integration in order to keep the syslog. If you are considering the high volume traffic of the carrier-grade, then the syslog will hold for around five to 10 minutes. This is not enough time and it is being rotated. This is the main issue and the main limitation that we face with them that they need to work on."
"They should release frequent updates for its on-premises version."
"Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection could be more user-friendly because you need knowledge if you want to use it. To handle the solution, you need to be a subject matter expert, so this is one area for improvement."
"There needs to be more capabilities in order to configure the console itself instead of the user interface dashboard. Configuring the DNS or DHCP through the console instead of the GUI dashboard would be better."
"Qualys could be improved in its overall performance compared to other vulnerability management or scanning tools."
"Improve the API speed."
"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."
"They're still evolving their platform in terms of reporting capabilities."
"Endpoint stability and fault resolution could be improved."
"Certain integration factors between different options could be improved."
"There needs to be better documentation."
"They have integrated with other third parties, but it is still not viable."
