Comprehensive visibility has transformed how I secure and prioritize risks across connected devices
The best features Armis offers include vulnerability management for OT and IoT devices, providing risk prioritization, and offering protection across all connected assets. Armis cyber exposure management is very good as it provides continuous visibility, risk prioritization, and protection across all connected assets. Armis has positively impacted my organization by providing asset discovery for both OT and IoT, as well as threat visibility for OT and IoT devices along with vulnerability information, including the CVE number so that I can fix the threat on OT and IoT devices. Most of the time, focus is on IT devices and attention is not paid to OT and IoT. Armis facilitates focus on OT and IoT as well, closing the gap that often exists. Armis makes life easier for customers by providing visibility of OT and IoT, as well as threat visibility. Armis has a user-friendly interface, is very useful for customers, provides quality support, and has a global presence allowing easy access for both customers and Armis representatives. The console is user-friendly. Armis handles compliance requirements in my industry very well and is useful.

Asset discovery has transformed how we find unprotected devices and deploy endpoint defenses
The best features Axonius offers, in my opinion, are asset discovery, finding rogue devices, and vulnerability management. When I mention device discovery and management, the speed of discovery, the level of detail, and network-level discovery stand out to me. Axonius has positively impacted my organization significantly, as we discover thousands upon thousands of devices that don't have EDR tools, which means they are not protected. With Axonius, we were able to find them and deploy the EDR tool that they needed. I can share that we found about the Linux servers and Windows servers, hundreds of them, that were deployed. They were re-imaged and didn't have an EDR tool, and the integration with other tools proved that these devices are live on our network, and they just don't have a specific tool that we need to deploy to them.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Armis is easy to use."
"Armis transforms cybersecurity from a cost center into a business performance driver, delivering quantifiable ROI through reduced risk, operational efficiency, and compliance readiness for board-level discussions."
"Armis is a straightforward and user-friendly solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is asset tracking."
"I find the most valuable features of Armis to be its focus on IT, OT security, and medical device security."
"Armis is very easy to implement due to its agentless design and offers a granular level of visibility for all assets in the network."
"The solution’s vulnerability monitoring system is very good."
"The technology is good."
"Overall, I would rate Axonius an eight out of ten."
"The automation capabilities in Axonius have streamlined our security operations."
"The solution's technical support was good...The product's initial setup phase is pretty straightforward."
"he best feature I found in Axonius is that it shows us the duration of eCheck, and it shows us what device is down and in which part of the system life cycle or the checking part the system is down in."
"I like that the tool has a user-friendly interface. It helps organizations and big companies improve business requirements and control processes."
"Axonius offers excellent features including ease of use, the ability to ingest all assets at one central display, creating multiple visualization dashboards, the ability to create an enforcement center to complete tasks and support the program, and support for government operations."
"Axonius provides preconfigured dashboards that can be customized to your needs."
"With this solution in place, we are now 100% compliant along with security functions or operations area management."
 

Cons

"After implementing Armis, an organization experiences it as an add-on. Without asset visibility or vulnerability prioritization, it becomes a useless product."
"Like any IT tool, continuous learning and improvement are essential for the solution."
"The solution's vulnerability testing could be improved."
"The OpenText solution we used had to improve its development in relation to cloud environments. They have started to offer a version that works on the cloud, but they are really behind in that aspect today."
"Armis doesn't have a back intel feature."
"My experience with Armis has been positive, especially around asset visibility, unmanaged device monitoring, and risk intelligence. However, there are a few areas for improvement."
"We face difficulties in integrating the product with ticketing tools like ServiceNow."
"Armis could improve its geographic spread and marketing campaigns across regions."
"I think Axonius can be improved with more integration with different third-party tools, so we can identify which tools are missing and what more we can do with these endpoint devices floating around on our network."
"For Axonius, I would suggest supporting more ticketing platforms and enhancing API integration directly into the platform rather than just the connector. This would allow for better integration from different systems, possibly into workflows, which I think is currently lacking."
"For us, the product's deployment phase was a little challenging because we had to deal with other departments and business units."
"Axonius needs to improve by having the ability to ingest IoT data, as customers are requesting IoT data which we are currently unable to provide."
"One area Axonius can be improved is its integration process, as it is not straightforward; there is a lot involved in cloning the instance and other hard changes that I expect to be fully automated, suggesting an agentless method instead of utilizing agents, which feels somewhat legacy but could be improved."
"Adding more detailed descriptions or YouTube videos about specific features would help improve the application."
"Regarding the improvement of Axonius, it goes halfway for both the tool and the user. If we set it up quickly from our end, and if the AD groups and all other groups assigned to tag the assets have been tagged correctly, Axonius could not show an error."
"Axonius can improve on delivering compliance-related features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
