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…
JoaoManso - PeerSpot reviewer
Good dashboards, reporting, and technical support, with a low rate of errors
Parallel scanning would be a nice improvement because it would speed up the detection process. It is not possible to search for vulnerabilities and do compliance checking at the same time. Rather, they are done one after the other. The integration is very good, although it still needs to improve. For example, it would be useful to have better integration with other tools in the space of identity management (IAM). As it is now, integration with new tools has to be developed specifically, so it's not easy. We would like to see better collection capability for external data that will help to improve detection and discovery.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I appreciate the active coding, deep inspection of packages, and data retrieval. The tool covers information about assets and attack vectors, which I find superior to other tools. Based on alerts, I create reports detailing how an attacker can penetrate the plant, both externally and internally."
"Their SRA solution, the Secure Remote Access solution, is very useful for industrial environments."
"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 identifies all vulnerabilities available in our environment."
"I believe the two main aspects where Claroty stands out are their ability to provide a complete platform and their OT-specific focus."
"Claroty provides continuous threat protection and identifies pre-empty stuff and false positives."
"The platform ensures security without imposing significant delays."
"Tenable.sc's best features are the availability model, accident management, and scoring."
"We use Tenable to scan all of our environments and plugins for vulnerabilities. Tenable helps us discover network vulnerabilities to threats and piracy."
"Tenable SC's most valuable features are the low number of false positives and the strong capability of providing prioritization for the vulnerabilities detected."
"The feature we've liked most recently was being able to take the YARA rules from FireEye and put them into Tenable's scan for the most recent SolarWinds exploit. That was really useful."
"Overall, I rate the solution 9.8 out of 10."
"Tenable Security Center scans networks and gives reports."
"Very customizable with a lot of templates."
"The product is our second solution, and we are happy that it meets our requirements."
 

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."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Occasionally, I face a login problem despite entering the correct password."
"Introducing an AI chatbot to assist you when you have doubts could be beneficial."
"If more AI features could be included with the Clarity solution, it would be feasible for everybody."
"The graphical user interface is quite poor."
"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."
"I think the only issue is that the hardware Claroty uses is expensive."
"The biggest issue I have with the solution is when I'm using the scanning it picks up the original DNS of that device. That means, before we image it and actually change the DNS to something within our company structure, it'll just be random numbers and letters and Tenable will stick to that DNS for a long time."
"The web application scanning area can be improved."
"It's good at creating information, it's good creating dashboards, it's good at creating reports, but if you want to take that reporting metadata and put it into another tool, that is a little bit lacking."
"Though the solution's technical support is responsive, they do take a lot of time, making it one of the solution's shortcomings that needs improvement."
"The GUI could be improved to have all concerns and priorities use the same GUI, allowing them to see all tickets, assign vulnerabilities, and assign variation failures to each member of their team."
"The integration is very good, although it still needs to improve."
"At times we have had the typical bugs."
"It could be more user-friendly for creating custom reports."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Tenable SC is priced per asset, with the basic solution starting around US$12,000 for 500 assets."
"We're happy with the licensing cost and find it affordable."
"It is slightly more expensive than other solutions in the same sphere."
"For 500 users the licensing fee is roughly $100,000."
"Tenable is open-source."
"We're a Fortune 500 company... our licensing costs [are] in the seven figures."
"Compared to other companies or other products it could maybe be a little bit less, but the price is okay. I would say it's not very expensive."
"Costing is pretty reasonable compared to the competition."
