Adds a layer of safety, especially for laptops operating in various environments
The tool's deployment is easy. HP Wolf Security's deployment was a swift process since it was initially compatible with Windows 10, the operating system on both machines. However, when I transitioned to Windows 11, I encountered minor issues that prompted me to delve deeper into Wolf Security to fine-tune security settings according to my preferences. While I mostly used default settings, there was an initial adjustment where I disabled the AI function related to malware. Currently, the system is running smoothly with no reported issues. Adjusting some settings raised concerns about compatibility between HP Wolf Security and Norton 360. Specifically, aspects of HP Wolf Security, such as the virtual machine component, intrigued me, but I hesitated due to potential conflicts. During my investigation, Windows 11 raised a flag, questioning the system's security settings with Norton 360 and HP Wolf Security. However, it seems that they coexist well without causing issues.

A solid low-code builder that helps build workflows and processes in a variety of settings
It's not complex, but you need certified skills for setup to be easy. It is different for an L1 resource, who has a basic understanding of things and may not be a developer who deeply understands how to build up the solution, where that understanding is present with an L3 or L2 resource. For maintenance, you need at least one skill set for each module. You would need one for UEM and one more for MDM, which is the ideal way to do it unless you have people who know the modules in and out. We have a larger team for IT service management because the demand for IT service management is high, but we can see that for other modules as well now.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The isolation feature is the most important because it prevents attacks."
"We've been able to isolate and prevent malicious code from external email attachments and from downloaded internet files. Those are the two big areas that have really made an impact."
"The most valuable feature is the process isolation because it simply stops malware from infecting the machines."
"Now, instead of us having to go through that analysis, they actually give us a monthly report that shows us: "Here's what you got hit with, here's what would have happened, here are the forensics behind the attack," and, obviously, Bromium stopped it."
"The feature that stands out the most is that when someone clicks on a link in an email... [if] that link is malicious and it has some malware or keylogger attached to it, when it opens up in that Bromium virtualized browser, there's no chance of it actually being on the machine and running, because as soon as they click that "X" in the upper right-hand side of the browser, everything just vanishes. That is an added plus."
"It has prevented thousands of potential threats by encapsulating them within its own vSentry container, thus providing overall protection and integrity of the operating system."
"Our overall security posture has absolutely improved as a result of adding Bromium to our security stack. We continue to have less user impact through a significantly reduced amount of malware infections. It's become a non-event."
"I use HP Wolf Security to add a layer of safety, especially for laptops operating in various environments."
"Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager is cloud-based, which aids in deployment."
"The most valuable features of the solution are accessing the data through the mobiles and meeting with the compliance for security best practices."
"It provides security features for unified endpoint management."
"Patching and remediation are the strongest features."
"The most valuable feature of Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager, which my company mainly uses, is patching. Another valuable feature of Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager is that it allows you to view the inventory list of the different machines."
"The best part about Ivanti and Matrix 42 is that they are low-code solution builders with drag-and-drop capabilities regarding service management."
"The solution's most valuable features are its patch management functionality and provisioning."
"The key differentiator is that it manages mobile devices and laptops in the same console. Windows and Linux are on the same console. This is the only product that does this. It's really the best in the industry."
 

Cons

"Initially, when we came in contact with Bromium a few years ago, it had a nice threat analyst, or a LAVA Pop, which is what they used to call it. Once it detected malware, it would show us the malware's path... I don't see that on the computers now. We only get to see that in the console. I would like to still see that on the individual machines because when we go out to look at a machine, we don't necessarily have access to the console."
"The tool behaves differently when I ported to Windows 11."
"After a major release, there's always a lot of "dust settling." You have to work through all those issues and then you're fine for a while. The problem is, it's stable, it's fine, until the next major release comes out. Then you go back into the cycle again of uncertainty, instability, working through issues until they have patched and remediated all the problems that you're having. It's not unlike any other vendor though"
"I did not find this to be an out-of-the-box solution, it required planning and alignment across many groups."
"Initial setup was complex. There were many configurations that needed to be worked out with the vendor. The setup required hands-on assistance from Bromium."
"When you deploy, not only is the user asked to reboot their computer, they are also asked to wait for 20 minutes while it sits there and initializes. It definitely impacts the end-user. It takes time away from their day."
"They have always struggled with usability. The protection that it offers you is tremendous, but there's definitely an impact with use of resources on the computer. It's gotten a lot better now with Win 10. But sometimes, when you open up a website, it's going to take longer than it would without Bromium, and it's the same with documents."
"Reporting is one of the shortcomings of the product. We do mine the data that's in there from a forensics perspective... It becomes very difficult because you have to spend a lot of time digging through the volumes of data. Reporting is absolutely the biggest shortcoming."
"Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager's support provided to its users by the vendor is one area that needs to improve."
"When you open a new mobile, you automatically come onboard the mobile on the Ivanti platform but it needs some improvements."
"If I want to integrate the solution with any other solution, pushing the policies from the Ivanti side is a bit tough."
"The solution needs a complete overhaul or makeover. It gets stuck sometimes because they're focusing on the cloud UEM stuff rather than paying as much attention to that particular piece. The ease of use could be improved. It combines many different functionalities that you would need multiple servers like SCCM. If I wanted to train people, I’d move to a higher level from an Apache architect. There are five or six different products. So, training functional staff to use the product can be challenging because it can sometimes be cumbersome. Reporting is challenging. We use Avanti extraction to report off an endpoint. We don't use the reporting because of the need for more functionality, granularity, or customization."
"One of the features that Ivanti could improve is patching for non-Windows settings, such as Linux and Ubuntu."
"Some of the GUI features need improvement. In particular, navigation could be better optimized for quick navigation by the user."
"The product's blocking definition needs improvement."
"It could benefit from faster integration with new technologies, such as quicker adaptation to Windows updates. Additionally, more advanced customization options would be valuable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is a good value. We only run it on our internet-facing workstations, we don't run it on everything in our environment. We are very selective. Some organizations may want to consider doing something like that to reduce their license count."
"The product came as a bundle with the machine."
"Pricing is reasonable."
"I think the pricing is a good value. All of these security products are always going to be very expensive, but I don't think Bromium is unreasonable. I think Bromium is decently priced. It’s a tiered licensing platform. The more you buy, the cheaper gets per unit, and I think their tiers are very well defined. I think they're fair."
"The pricing is very fair compared to the competition. The licensing is straightforward."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is low and ten is high, I rate the solution's pricing ten out of ten."
"The pricing is relatively high compared to some competitors."
"On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the highest, and one is the cheapest, I rate its pricing a five."
"The licensing is based on assets for MDM or EM, where you need one license per asset. The license is annual, and it is not very expensive."
"The product is expensive."
"The solution is pretty expensive."
"Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager is more expensive than some of the products I've used. It follows module-based licensing, so it would be more costly if you had more modules. Your costs depend on what modules you need."
