Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most value we get from this solution is that everything is on a patch cycle.""Remote access and detailed monitoring help us support our equipment.""It is very scalable.""The database is great. It's a nicely ordered database.""The initial setup is easy and the deployment is quick.""It's definitely improved the help-desk servicing, et cetera.""This product saves us a lot of time and increases our efficiency.""Scripting and patch management are really important for us. Patch Manager is something that we use a lot, and we would love to have it continually improved. It is one of the most useful features for us for controlling patches and other things for different clients."

"I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management.""The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors.""Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively.""The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps.""For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user.""Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient.""The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed.""I like the tool's incident response and security patching."

Cons
"The menu doesn't always load properly.""The project management needs improvement and there's a section of the product called configuration that also needs to be improved.""Patching and reporting need improvements, especially reporting. The reporting engine is quite outdated, so you end up having to use your own dashboard.""They could use some automated alerts particularly when we're talking about an MSP that might shoot over.""There could be better linkages between ConnectWise Automate and Manage from a ticketing perspective. Automate and Manage each has its own ticketing system. We use the one in Manage, but it'd be nice if they were linked directly to the one in Automate.""They always change the GUI to some dumb-down version of tiles which are more "user-friendly", but slows my team down in the end.""In Patch Manager, there should be more reportability so that it is easier to see the updates that I have applied to a machine and when the next update will happen. A lot of times, it seems like all the information is kind of thrown all over the place, and you can't really see it all at the same time. There should be a simplified patch data view that allows us to quickly confirm that our various clients are getting patched as they should be.""Their support needs to be better."

More ConnectWise Automate Cons →

"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.""We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade.""The solution can give a lot of false positives.""The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities.""The main issues are the network connection because different customers have issues with their networks. It's difficult implementing this type of solution because the network is the main feature in the architecture for these types of solutions. Tanium could improve by creating some network optimization.""The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes.""The reporting could be improved.""They could improve the UI."
