Is able to make several campaigns work in parallel, but the user interface needs improvement
It's mainly used by the cybersecurity team for Windows patching and deployment of some software solutions I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in…

Great features, good support, and lots of functionality
I'm an end-user. We use the solution on multiple clouds. I'd advise users to validate which product and metrics will help them the most. The solution has multiple functionalities. Don't go in blindly. Know what you want to get out of the product. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten based on the scalability potential.

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

Pros

"I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel."
"I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management."
"The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed."
"The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors."
"The security features are very valuable."
"Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively."
"For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"They have multiple great features."
 

Cons

"The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes."
"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."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
"I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments."
"Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session."
"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."
"They could improve the UI."
"We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade."
"We end up facing a lot of issues after upgrades."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing differs from region to region depending on negotiations and the number of endpoints."
"The solution offers value for money."
"It's an expensive solution. It would be nice if the cost were lower."
"The solution is expensive but it's a good investment."
"It is higher than some competitors in the market."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"Tanium is a more expensive solution in Latin America than some of the competitors, such as BigFix."
