Comprehensive client management and software distribution made efficient
Implementing a business solution with BigFix has some issues, primarily concerning the time required for distribution to clients if there are too many. Building a management console is quick and simple, taking only one to two hours for setup. However, a demo or trial may take over a week or two for completion.

An affordable tool that is easy to learn
The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Seqrite developed a feature that can help restore deleted data. If there is a ransomware attack, our company can restore the data as Seqrite keeps a copy in an encrypted and complex format. If there is any ransomware attack, our company can restore the data. If the data is deleted by any of the users in our company, and if we want to recover it, then it can be done through the process that the tool uses to restore data during a ransomware attack. There is a command through which users can recover the data from the laptop.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The use of fast query has been extremely valuable providing insight in real time of the endpoints."
"All the vendor patches are synchronized automatically."
"The solution has many useful features. Its main advantage is simplicity - you can do everything from one console, regardless of the task. It supports many operating systems and is scalable to up to 250,000 clients."
"It is a one-stop tool that allows you to do everything. It supports reporting, vulnerability management, patch management, and configuration. All things can be done in one tool."
"The best feature of BigFix is its multi-platform support."
"From a security standpoint, it allows us to make sure that we're not leaving ourselves vulnerable to exploits and things like that. That's the biggest advantage that we see to the product from a security standpoint."
"BigFix is a great product. The flexibility of putting together your own relevance and retrieving custom data from any one of your agents is a valuable feature. It is one of my favorite features because if a boss asks me, "How many of these devices do we have?", I can put together a report in two seconds."
"It has plugins development options, which are great."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The convenience has been great."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
 

Cons

"I'd like to see better integration, with the different applications within BigFix. Instead of sometimes feeling like four or five different applications, they need to be integrated a little better within themselves."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"We need a much better multi-tenant option."
"I'd definitely like to see additional feature parody in the web UI versus the console. There are certain things that you can only do in the console and they're very cumbersome to do, like secure parameters, for example. That's definitely something that has a wide degree of utility but it needs to be easier to surface. At this particular juncture between the transition, between the legacy console and the web UI, it's hard to justify dealing with the cumbersome aspects of the legacy console when theoretically everything's been through the web UI."
"I would like to see SDK for Web UI included in the next release."
"I would request them to build a robots, or an easier way for integration with the other tools, like ITSM tools."
"The look and feel of the system are old-fashioned."
"Its pricing should be improved. It is too costly."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"User management could be improved."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"The interface is slow."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is high. There are not any additional fees from the standard license."
"The license is subscription-based."
"It might be about $23 a client."
"When purchasing, buying with other IBM tools provided us with a very good discount in pricing."
"The price of BigFix could be lower. However, I am always seeking a lower price."
"You get what we call the Platform Edition, which you get for free. The patch service is maybe $0.50 per workstation per month. Then there's the basic server cost, which is about $1.50 per server per month. You also get into Lifecycle which does power management, OSD remote control, and those types of things, and that might be about 10 times the price - which works out to about $13 per server and, maybe $5 per workstation per month."
"The price of BigFix is better than the solutions. You are able to pay monthly or annually. There are not any hidden costs with BigFix. There is an additional cost for the SQL database."
"Its price is very reasonable."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
