Helps us prioritize our security fixes, reduce our false positives, and improve our security posture
Our team is always looking for ways to improve the product. Although we understand we are not the only client, the company has been very receptive to our suggestions. They work with the development team to implement our requests, and most of the time, they do. However, we are currently facing a challenge with the RBAC system. Our view on how it should function differs slightly from theirs. While we understand their position, more flexibility in controlling the system would be beneficial. Due to the sensitive nature of our data, we need to limit access to specific user information within IONIX. Although we have implemented some user feedback for improvement, other areas require changes to IONIX's RBAC model. We understand their reasons for the current model, but we believe modifications are necessary. Unfortunately, achieving those changes seems unlikely.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"IONIX enables us to manage all our assets from one platform. We can see all the assets, login pages, web services, etc., from one place. It automatically scans everything so we can find new information about our organization. We don't need to add each asset or interface manually."
"The most valuable feature of IONIX is the effortless setup."
"My favorite is the dark web association that it does. It basically takes things that are unknown to you and then also runs those URLs through the dark web to see if there are potentially leaked credentials unknown to you. It links both of those together and gives you that on a report. You can identify potentially compromised credentials that were previously unknown to you, and you can do something about them. It is a cool feature."
"We're constantly surprised by how good IONIX is at detecting timely vulnerabilities."
"The integration was easy."
"The portal is an excellent resource, offering valuable insights in a clear and actionable format. It provides a wealth of information, presented in a way that's easy to understand and use. This aligns perfectly with our key focus when working with IONIX: ensuring the data they deliver is highly actionable."
"The platform's most valuable feature is attack simulation."
"What I personally like very much, from my experience, is that it is very reliable."
 

Cons

"IONIX can offer additional services to detect any potential bridging of very sensitive internal resources to the external side."
"It would be extremely beneficial if IONIX could integrate with popular SaaS services like Salesforce, Box, Zoom, or NetSuite."
"Integrating on-premise Jira with IONIX to track changes and discussions would be highly beneficial for us in the future."
"The integration and mechanisms for scanning things after we fix them could be simpler. IONIX isn't an easy product to use, but it's one of the best solutions once you learn how to work with it."
"There are a couple of opportunities for them under integrations. They only have two SIEMs. They do not have our current SIEM in there. It would be nice to have our current SIEM in there, which is Hunter's AI."
"Our team is always looking for ways to improve the product. Although we understand we are not the only client, the company has been very receptive to our suggestions."
"We'd like to see a cheaper price."
"XM Cyber could identify all areas of vulnerability. They could expand the identification span for different areas."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is reasonable and at par with the rest of the industry."
"Its pricing is fair."
"Since we were an early adopter of IONIX, I believe we have a very favorable pricing model."
"The pricing is good."
"We have to pay standard licensing fees."
