Integrates with ServiceNow and provides alerts for deviations
The most valuable feature of Axonius is its ability to deduplicate records and identify which ones are old and stale versus those more relevant. For example, if you haven't logged in today but a system somewhere else mentions you have, Axonius can detect this through various logs like Active Directory, file logging, or Wi-Fi connections. Traditionally, someone would have to make numerous calls and spend a lot of time to find out if you are on-site or connected to a Wi-Fi network. The tool simplifies this process. From my experience, onboarding and adding connectors was pretty easy, especially when integrating with the ServiceNow environment. It worked well for my use case, but the ease of use can depend on the customer's specific needs and what they are trying to achieve.

Good automation and analytics, but is costly
The report model was our main concern. I believe currently the solution uses a third party for the reporting. As part of a consulting firm, one of the challenges we face is the difficulty in producing reports that meet the expectations of our clients and customers. It would be beneficial if the focus could be shifted toward improving the reporting aspect. The impact report is a crucial aspect, as we only have one opportunity to create it. Galvanize HighBond can improve by generating more impact reports post-project, and allowing access to the reports using a web version, which would greatly benefit us. The cost of the solution is expensive and needs improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The automation capabilities in Axonius have streamlined our security operations."
"Axonius provides preconfigured dashboards that can be customized to your needs."
"he best feature I found in Axonius is that it shows us the duration of eCheck, and it shows us what device is down and in which part of the system life cycle or the checking part the system is down in."
"I like that the tool has a user-friendly interface. It helps organizations and big companies improve business requirements and control processes."
"The solution's technical support was good...The product's initial setup phase is pretty straightforward."
"The most valuable feature is automation."
 

Cons

"We can have fetch cycle issues."
"Adding more detailed descriptions or YouTube videos about specific features would help improve the application."
"Regarding the improvement of Axonius, it goes halfway for both the tool and the user. If we set it up quickly from our end, and if the AD groups and all other groups assigned to tag the assets have been tagged correctly, Axonius could not show an error."
"For us, the product's deployment phase was a little challenging because we had to deal with other departments and business units."
"Axonius can improve on delivering compliance-related features."
"For Axonius, I would suggest supporting more ticketing platforms and enhancing API integration directly into the platform rather than just the connector. This would allow for better integration from different systems, possibly into workflows, which I think is currently lacking."
"The cost of the solution is expensive and needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Axonius is quite a bit cheaper compared to other solutions."
"We are on a subscription model with them."
"I give the cost of the solution a six out of ten."
