Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities
Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Improved industrial asset visibility has transformed risk management and compliance monitoring
I think there are some areas of weaknesses in Claroty Platform. The pricing could improve, as some of the features require licensing tiers and therefore the pricing could be higher. Claroty Platform could benefit from simpler licensing and pricing structures. The executive dashboard can improve as well, and they can expand their third-party integration. Additionally, their predictive AI-driven recommendations can be improved. I think it does provide for very good behavior analysis through AI capabilities and risk prioritization, which is generally quite trustworthy. As the capability of AI enhances, I think it can provide for better risk recommendations. Claroty Platform can have a better and simpler licensing arrangement. Their third-party integrations can expand. They can have better executive dashboards and more AI-driven predictive risk recommendations. I would rate them an eight for these reasons. Dashboards, licensing, integrations, and AI-driven recommendations are areas for improvement. Probably one more to add is that they can have better and more enhanced automated remediation workflows.

The solution helps users to manage their entire IP range, but it's unreliable and very expensive to maintain
Only the administrator was using the product. He used it to read reports as part of our compliance programs. It wasn't heavily used by a lot of users. The tool comes in at a large scale, and we tried to scale it down. The scaling did not apply to us. It was neither difficult nor easy. I rate the scalability a five out of ten. We had some challenges while scaling it down. It could do 10,000 devices, and we wanted to use it for ten devices. The process was difficult and expensive. We did not need the product anymore.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is extensibility."
"Qualys TotalCloud has significantly improved our organization by automating our reporting processes, reducing the time spent on report creation from two hours to less than fifteen to twenty minutes."
"I appreciate Qualys TotalCloud's ability to onboard any type of device with ease, including containers."
"I would rate Qualys TotalCloud ten out of ten."
"The scalability is good as well. I would rate it ten out of ten."
"The platform's unified view of the organization proves particularly valuable for leadership team meetings."
"The vulnerability management feature is the one I like the most because it provides a clear picture of all vulnerabilities."
"I depend heavily on the reports that I have from this tool."
"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays, boosts productivity, and allows secure remote access to engineers through advanced methods while providing seamless integration with legacy systems and supporting both passive and active reconnaissance."
"I like how the tool does passive and active discovery and threat detection and shows risks, recommendations, and vulnerabilities. It gives risk scores and gathers everything in one place - IP, device name, etc. We can integrate it with other tools for overall network mapping. It's useful for audits, compliance, and monitoring of all devices in the industry. It provides both monitoring and control. We also have SRA for incident response, which lets us search all alerts if we deploy the Claroty Platform."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the map, which shows everything that is connected and communicates with each other."
"I have had a very good experience with the Claroty Platform."
"Claroty identifies all vulnerabilities available in our environment."
"The product helps mitigate potential threats, especially if its users have signature rules. The product also provides alerts."
"The solution offers comprehensive tools that greatly enhance your IT operations if implemented correctly."
"Their SRA solution, the Secure Remote Access solution, is very useful for industrial environments."
"The company probably chose this solution because they thought that they would be getting the best bang for their buck."
"Tripwire IP360 helps me to discover most of the vulnerabilities, and I like the way that it prioritizes these vulnerabilities, as it allows me to focus on the most important ones first and then follow up with the rest."
"This product detects vulnerabilities which exist in the environment, and provides enough information that allows for remediation, thereby securing the environment."
"Tripwire IP360 is a very stable solution."
"It's become the pinnacle point for anything that enters the network or anything that's passing through to production to first be affected by IP360, hardened, and up to standard. For our integrity management, one was deployed in the bank about two years ago and that's still going to expand the usage and the product itself. That will go hand in hand with training and expanding the product as for where it's deployed."
"We could manage our entire IP range with the solution."
"It has enhanced the security program by ensuring that all external-facing systems are scanned on a routine basis."
"Tripwire is one of the most mature in terms of companies, suites, support, everything, much more than any other product."
 

Cons

"The price is very expensive, actually."
"Qualys's ticketing system can be confusing when assigning tasks to individuals, and support could be improved by offering instant call solutions with engineers in addition to ticket replies."
"The main area needing improvement is integration. Although the team is strengthening TotalCloud, integration can be enhanced with SIEM, SOAR, ITSM, and other sources."
"We would like to see Windows-based sensors available in Qualys, as this would make the platform more versatile and support a broader range of environments."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"There is a lack of data segregation according to criticality or inventory."
"The support is not up to the mark and seems to be overburdened."
"In TotalCloud, I would suggest improvements in policy checks to cater to various inventory types like VPCs, subnets, S3 buckets, or IAMs. There is a lack of data segregation according to criticality or inventory."
"There is room for improvement in the user interface to make it more vibrant and interactive, similar to IT tools. Improvements could also be made in the Secure Remote Access (SRA) user interaction and graphical representations of recordings."
"The Claroty Platform becomes too noisy when it gives numerous CVEs related to vendor match. Sometimes, these CVEs are not actually related to the device in the firmware at the site."
"I think the only issue is that the hardware Claroty uses is expensive."
"The pricing could improve, as some of the features require licensing tiers and therefore the pricing could be higher."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Claroty Platform only gives the vulnerabilities based on the make and model of the devices, so it doesn't provide any resolution or any detailed explanation of how one can resolve such issues."
"The graphical user interface is quite poor."
"Introducing an AI chatbot to assist you when you have doubts could be beneficial."
"The reporting functions can use improvement."
"We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running."
"If you are looking for better reporting capabilities and vulnerability tracking over time for remediation purposes, then this is not the best solution."
"For IP360, unfortunately, scans for certain vulnerabilities often cause issues, as they are mainly false positive."
"The reporting functions can use improvement. There is room for growth because reporting functions differ a lot depending on what you're going to output. It depends on whether it's for technical or senior management and how it's interpreted. There could be growth within the reporting functionality side."
"We would like to have better reporting capabilities and for them to be more granular."
"I am not very impressed by the technical support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While Qualys TotalCloud's pricing is currently acceptable, it is becoming increasingly expensive and may soon be considered overpriced."
"Although Qualys TotalCloud is relatively expensive due to its unique automation features, its cost-effectiveness is rated an eight out of ten, with ten being the most costly."
"The pricing is comparable. It is built into our other product, so I cannot piecemeal it. It is a part of our subscription."
"The cost is high, but it meets our organizational needs."
"As a middle management member, I do not have direct pricing knowledge, but based on the knowledge from our meetings, its pricing is competitive."
"Qualys TotalCloud is expensive, but it offers a premier solution with no headaches."
"Its price seems higher compared to other tools, but it is worth it. If they could adjust the pricing and make it comparable with other tools, that would be great."
"The pricing for TotalCloud is attractive and competitive in the market. Given the features, especially the dashboard, I have no concerns regarding pricing."
"It's a bit expensive compared to other solutions."
"The licensing for physical devices is cheap, but the software version is expensive. The software version costs around 26-28 dollars. I was surprised and even double-checked. It was shocking."
"The tool is quite expensive."
"The product was expensive for us."
"I believe the price compares well within the market."
