Achieve certifications with progress tracking and potential for enhanced interactivity
I was using Claroty to complete training assigned by my company. The courses were self-paced and helped me get certified in two additional certifications. I plan to use it further as I have a task list for future courses. It was primarily for certification and study materials The feature I like…

Easy to integrate, enhances operational efficiency, and has machine learning capabilities
We are satisfied with the product. We can passively scan the network for anomalies and let it learn through machine learning about the normal state of the network. If it deviates from that, then it is an anomaly. It would give an alert about anomalous behaviors like a cyber attack. The network visibility has enhanced operational efficiency. It is easy to integrate the solution with the existing industrial control systems.

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."
"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."
"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 solution's asset management is really great compared to Dragos or Nozomi."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the map, which shows everything that is connected and communicates with each other."
"The product helps mitigate potential threats, especially if its users have signature rules. The product also provides alerts."
"Claroty provides continuous threat protection and identifies pre-empty stuff and false positives."
"The network visibility has enhanced operational efficiency."
 

Cons

"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."
"If more AI features could be included with the Clarity solution, it would be feasible for everybody."
"I think the only issue is that the hardware Claroty uses is expensive."
"We face issues in the alert investigation area because it does not properly give the alert communication patterns."
"The graphical user interface is quite poor."
"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 are a few protocols that Claroty doesn't currently support."
"The tool must provide new features similar to Radiflow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a bit expensive compared to other solutions."
"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."
