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…

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."
"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."
"The main advantage of Claroty, when compared to its competitors, is integrated secure remote access."
"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."
"Customer service is number one and the best."
"Claroty is very beneficial for learning and adds value to your resume."
"Claroty identifies all vulnerabilities available in our environment."
"The solution is one of the most, if not the most, stable product available."
"The scanning part, the agent part – that's the valuable aspect."
"What is useful to me is being able to fulfill very customized scanning policies. In the clinical environment, because of vendor control, we can't perform credential-vulnerability scanning. And network scans, which I've done before, can cause a lot of impact. Being able to create very customized policies to be able to routinely scan and audit our clinical networks, while simultaneously not causing impact, is important to us."
"I think that this is a good solution for evaluating vulnerability in the network."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the vulnerability assessment."
"Feature-wise, Tenable Security Center is a very fast tool with many dashboards and reports, and it covers all our systems."
"Compared to other products, the most valuable features of the solution are its ease of use and ability to provide visibility over scan results while providing many templates to users, making it a helpful tool."
"The solution is completely stable and operation is user-friendly."
 

Cons

"I think the only issue is that the hardware Claroty uses is expensive."
"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."
"We face issues in the alert investigation area because it does not properly give the alert communication patterns."
"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."
"The product could be improved in terms of user interface design."
"Introducing an AI chatbot to assist you when you have doubts could be beneficial."
"Tenable SC can improve by making it easier to create complicated reports and have more effectiveness in the remediation area for comparison between the scans."
"In terms of configuration, there is some level of flexibility that we are not able to achieve."
"Tenable.sc's user interface could be improved."
"The solution needs to improve the vulnerability assessment because we have experienced some challenges with accuracy."
"Tenable has some problems with agents going offline during scanning and lag between agents and the security center."
"The reports and plugins for reports and scans could benefit from enhancements."
"We are facing some challenges related to our channel."
"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."
 

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."
"It's a bit expensive compared to other solutions."
"The tool is quite expensive."
"The pricing is more than Nexpose."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, where ten is expensive. It is the most expensive tool my company is using."
"Costing is pretty reasonable compared to the competition."
"We're able to save because we don't have to employ more staff members to help wit ht he scheduling of the scans, running the reports or sending them out to the systems owners. That alone is a big ROI for us."
"It is slightly more expensive than other solutions in the same sphere."
"Tenable.sc is more expensive than its competitors."
"Tenable is open-source."
"The price can start at €10,000 ($13,000 USD) for between 500 and 1,000 assets, and the price can climb into the millions as more assets are added."
