Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed.""The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors.""Tanium's most valuable feature is its instant discovery aspect.""Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively.""Tanium’s linear-chain architecture is valuable.""I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management.""For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user.""The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."

"The product offers good documentation that helps with initial training.""They have also accommodated many state-of-the-art technologies like Docker and ZooKeeper.""It's easy to use.""The custom built integration is one of the most valuable features because you can see all the especially critical items.""The most valuable feature is the flexible discovery mechanism.""Its Docker Container concept is mind blowing. It is the first monitoring tool which comes with Docker features.""What I like most about Zenoss Service Dynamics is that it monitors the devices and gives close to real-time alerts. For example, in case the device is not available, Zenoss Service Dynamics generates an alert so my team can resolve the issue."

Cons
"The solution lacks mobility.""The reporting could be improved.""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.""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.""The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes.""Tanium’s scalability could be improved.""Any movement into a SaaS solution has challenges since the processes and data flows are not well defined. Hence, you need to build it at the same time."

More Tanium Cons →

"The inclusion of a feature to show a graphical view of the network would be a helpful improvement.""There is room for improvement with the administrative part. They introduced Control Center to manage things in Zenoss 5. The services that Zenoss provides remained the same, but the administrative part, since they introduced Docker, etc., has become a little complex""As Zenoss Service Dynamics is more for network-centric devices and you want to monitor, for example, a server, its services, IP addresses, and interfaces, if it's a network and you're going to monitor multiple items, you'll be charged multiple times. This is what Zenoss Service Dynamics needs to improve to make sure that customers pay just one fee to monitor the entire server. What I'd like to see in Zenoss Service Dynamics in the future is a public cloud monitoring feature, particularly for the Azure public cloud. Another additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is integration with the Azure public cloud because I know that there are some services from Azure that Zenoss Service Dynamics is currently unable to monitor.""It would be ideal if the product offered sound alerts.""Now it is stable, but they should design threshold parameters in percentage instead of raw values.""There was a problem with Zenoss and storage monitoring.""The AI aspect needs to improve."

  • More Tanium Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It depends on the customer, what he wants."
  • "It is very cost-effective compared to the tools I worked with in the past. The company is gaining a lot with respect to the cost factor. It provides agentless monitoring and in a very cheap way."
  • "The pricing depends on the environment, the number of services, and the size of the data center. It can go from $100,000 to a million dollars."
  • "There are additional costs you'll have to pay apart from the license fee for Zenoss Service Dynamics. I can't remember exactly how much my company is paying because I don't handle the finance part, but the cost is paid annually. On a scale of one to five, with one being the cheapest and five being the most expensive, I'm rating the solution three out of five."
