We performed a comparison between Microsoft Configuration Manager and Tanium based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Server Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The scalability to deploy the package."
"I have found the solution to be scalable. We have around 50,000 users using the solution."
"Microsoft Configuration Manager gives different tools in one solution."
"What's valuable is the basic management of the systems, being able to control who can access the systems."
"You can remote control or RDP. That has been the most valuable because we can go into one console and can get to anything we want. Instead of going to all these different consoles, we centralized everything."
"This solution helps us by automating the patching of our system."
"The solution has a very good set of features."
"The most valuable feature is the scalability."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient."
"The security features are very valuable."
"The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed."
"The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps."
"I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management."
"For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user."
"The reports are too busy. They could be simpler. I'm a technician, so I don't care how pretty the reports look. They should be easy to read. I'm designing this for production folks. They need to read the reports quickly when they're patching in the middle of the night."
"There should probably be better remote support. They should also continue to improve on patch management, patching, and creating or turning products in software into deployable apps."
"The main room for improvement is the on-screen display. I think it would be good if some improvements were made."
"The deployment process is lengthy and should be quicker to complete."
"I want the system to provide some dependency relations. I would also like to see the relationship between different machines."
"There's no way to say, "I want this maintenance window to be on the second Tuesday of the month." It's strict. This window is this and that's it. You can't fluctuate."
"They need to improve the support for the Mac operating system."
"There is no asset management package included."
"Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
"Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session."
"The reporting could be improved."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade."
"They could improve the UI."
"Tanium’s scalability could be improved."
