A VMDR solution that can be used to detect, block, and mitigate vulnerabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature of QualysGuard Policy Compliance is the automation that can detect real-time threats and decrease risks."
  • "It would be good if the solution’s technical support could be faster."

What is our primary use case?

We use QualysGuard Policy Compliance for VMDR (Vulnerability Management, Detection and Response). We can use the solution to detect, block, and mitigate vulnerabilities.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature of QualysGuard Policy Compliance is the automation that can detect real-time threats and decrease risks. QualysGuard Policy Compliance is integrated with the SIEM tool. VMDR tools work on asset management, vulnerability management, threat detection, and response.

What needs improvement?

It would be good if the solution’s technical support could be faster.

I would like to improve the solution's detection feature whereby any vulnerability can be detected and immediately put in the sandbox.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using QualysGuard Policy Compliance for one year.

How was the initial setup?

The solution’s initial setup is easy.

What about the implementation team?

The solution’s deployment does not take a long time.

What was our ROI?

We have seen a return on investment with QualysGuard Policy Compliance.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The solution's pricing is in the mid-range, where it is neither expensive nor very cheap.

What other advice do I have?

QualysGuard Policy Compliance is deployed on-cloud in our organization. The solution is deployed mostly on AWS and Microsoft Azure cloud.

I would recommend QualysGuard Policy Compliance to other users.

Overall, I rate QualysGuard Policy Compliance an eight out of ten.
