Wide verity of scan tools to scan your network and keep track of patch management #### Cons The wide spectrum of scans on a large scale is slow and can get a bit overwhelming and time consuming --- ### Languard is what we were needing for a long time.. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Troy P. - Industry: Banking - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Languard is a great product to deploy patches throughout distributed environments. Easy interface, user friendly, nice reports, automation and scheduling of tasks, auto remediation, etc. It also serves as a scanner to check for vulnerabilities, not only software-related but miss-configurations and other things that can be mitigated. It can be used to scan everything. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros non-stop ongoing patching and remediation, based on locations, settings. Relays can be set to distribute the load. One single pane of glass for all patch-related information. I heard new version is web based and has multiple administrators. #### Cons Currently one single console user at a time can use the system and will have to RDP into the server, so if you are running a task and another person logs on to the server, it will bring a duplicate session but will not work. The new version is supposed to fix this (hopefully). Also, need faster convergence on reports coming back from agents. --- ### GFI is an effective tool for patching software on the network - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Karen B. - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2018 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

Looked great out of the box but lacked correct reporting. We moved to another SIEM because of false reporting. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The dashboard was great. It provides all kinds of information and setup and configuration are fairly straight forward. #### Cons What I didn't like was the reporting accuracy. GFI vulnerability scanner was reporting false positive vulnerabilities. We would look at a system GFI reported as requiring a patch and we would find the patch already deployed on the system. This created more work for us and caused us to chase down a lot of false positives --- ### It captures the information we require and assist in patching and keeping our network protected. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Marsha J. - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The ability to do multi patching and updates simultaneously.

GFI Languard is used to patch Microsoft and other third party tools. The reports generated needs to be sorted in order to be used for reporting.
