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.

Immediate results in patching promptly address vulnerabilities
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. It would be easier if Tanium provided the patches directly. Some other brands provide the patch with a direct download link, which facilitates the process. Also, I feel that if there were more detailed documents and remediations readily available online for troubleshooting, especially more up-to-date information, it would be beneficial. Currently, some resources online are very out-of-date.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays."
"I believe the two main aspects where Claroty stands out are their ability to provide a complete platform and their OT-specific focus."
"Claroty identifies all vulnerabilities available in our environment."
"The main advantage of Claroty, when compared to its competitors, is integrated secure remote access."
"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 platform ensures security without imposing significant delays."
"The tool's best feature was the UI and the simplicity it offers."
"The solution offers comprehensive tools that greatly enhance your IT operations if implemented correctly."
"The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."
"The security features are very valuable."
"Tanium's most valuable feature is its instant discovery aspect."
"Tanium’s best features include support for any Windows, Linux, or Mac endpoint, regardless of where it is, and the ability to do IT operations and security operations."
"I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management."
"Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient."
"I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."
 

Cons

"For improvement, I think the training could be more practical. We have external training, but they're mostly theoretical. I want the solution to provide hands-on lab experience to help users learn better."
"Occasionally, I face a login problem despite entering the correct password."
"There should be AI security solutions implemented."
"I think the only issue is that the hardware Claroty uses is expensive."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in the user interface to make it more vibrant and interactive, similar to IT tools."
"The product could be improved in terms of user interface design."
"We face issues in the alert investigation area because it does not properly give the alert communication patterns."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"Tanium’s scalability could be improved."
"Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session."
"The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities."
"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."
"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."
"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 most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is quite expensive."
"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."
"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's an expensive solution. It would be nice if the cost were lower."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"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."
"The solution offers value for money."
"The solution is expensive but it's a good investment."
