Passive scanning excels and support proves invaluable
Regarding the cons of the Claroty Platform, it is not about the deployment, but rather the identification. 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. The Claroty Platform identifies effectively but sometimes identifies many CVEs which might not be the actual issue in certain scenarios.

Centralized policies have improved remote endpoint control and have simplified data visibility
The integration is not simple and easy. It requires experienced users or people who have done the implementation. When certain policies are applied, they do not immediately push the policies. For example, we manage endpoint device USB access. We set a policy to block it, but it does not come into effect immediately. Sometimes it takes three or four days for it to reflect. That is a pain point. I have raised this issue with support as well, but they said that I need to limit the number of devices in the policy. In terms of application deployment, for us, it was seamless.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I believe the two main aspects where Claroty stands out are their ability to provide a complete platform and their OT-specific focus."
"I have had a very good experience with the Claroty Platform."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the map, which shows everything that is connected and communicates with each other."
"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays."
"The product helps mitigate potential threats, especially if its users have signature rules. The product also provides alerts."
"Claroty assigns a score based on how well you are doing in the course. If you skip a video, your score decreases, making it essential to watch the content attentively."
"The main advantage of Claroty, when compared to its competitors, is integrated secure remote access."
"Claroty provides continuous threat protection and identifies pre-empty stuff and false positives."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."
"Tanium is stable and it is also lightweight."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."
"The solution's technical support is very responsive."
"The security features are very valuable."
"I find the inventory and compliance features of Tanium to be the most impressive."
"Tanium is a very good product and I would rate it eight or nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"We face issues in the alert investigation area because it does not properly give the alert communication patterns."
"There are a few protocols that Claroty doesn't currently support."
"There is room for improvement in the user interface to make it more vibrant and interactive, similar to IT tools."
"I've reported four bugs and three feature requests so far. The main area of focus should be on how attacks are detected. The attack vector information needs to be more detailed. For example, it's not enough to state that an SMB v1 version open can lead to a WannaCry attack. A more detailed explanation should help clients understand the various ways an attack could occur."
"There should be AI security solutions implemented."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"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."
"Introducing an AI chatbot to assist you when you have doubts could be beneficial."
"We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade."
"I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments."
"Tanium’s scalability 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."
"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."
"They could improve the UI."
"When working with Tanium, there are some older devices that haven't been patched for a long time, and certain patches are not included in Tanium. I have to search outside to download patches, create bundles, and then perform the task."
"Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"It's a bit expensive compared to other solutions."
"The product's pricing differs from region to region depending on negotiations and the number of endpoints."
"It is higher than some competitors in the market."
"Tanium is a more expensive solution in Latin America than some of the competitors, such as BigFix."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"The solution offers value for money."
"The solution is expensive but it's a good investment."
"It's an expensive solution. It would be nice if the cost were lower."
