What do you like best about the product?

I like Tanium as a unified tool for both IT operations and security since my team relies on it daily for software deployments, automated patching, and maintaining an accurate count of our servers and laptops. The real-time inventory is really good, and in case of widespread issues, this is our go-to tool for getting endpoint data. The fact that a single agent handles asset visibility, vulnerability checks, and updates all in one place is also a big plus.

What do you dislike about the product?

The UI can feel intimidating, especially if you're used to something more traditional. It takes a while to figure out what query builder or module you need for specific tasks. Also, the module-based licensing and pricing can be expensive when you only need a few features from a module.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Tanium for unified IT operations and security, like software deployments, automated patching, and real-time inventory. It helps me manage endpoint data during widespread issues with a single agent handling asset visibility, vulnerability checks, and updates.

What do you like best about the product?

What I like best about Tanium is its innovative approach to endpoint management and security. I’m particularly impressed by how Tanium provides real-time visibility and enables organizations to quickly identify and respond to security and operational issues at scale. The combination of technology, automation, and security aligns well with my interest in enterprise IT and infrastructure.

What do you dislike about the product?

One area that could be improved is the learning curve for new users. Tanium offers a wide range of powerful features, but understanding and utilizing them effectively can take some time. More simplified documentation, guided workflows, and onboarding resources could make the platform easier for new users to adopt.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tanium helps solve the challenge of gaining real-time visibility and control across endpoints and IT environments. It makes it easier to identify security vulnerabilities, monitor systems, investigate issues, and respond quickly to incidents. This benefits me by reducing manual effort, improving troubleshooting efficiency, and providing more reliable and centralized information for making IT and security decisions.

What do you like best about the product?

Devices onboard quickly and in deploying applications to devices. I like managing applications deployment portal and managing installed applications on all devices.

What do you dislike about the product?

I’m not sure if it has some kind integration with other device management portals like intune to make life easier. Creating device groups seems not easy.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tanium is solving endpoint management, deploying applications to devices, reviewing installed applications integrated with screenmeet to have remote session for end devices.

What do you like best about the product?

I like that I can look up endpoints and see what has been deployed and when and if successful or not without ever bothering a user or remoting in. I like that I can also deploy software or remove it without ever bothering my users.

What do you dislike about the product?

When a software is deployed and has not installed successfully it still shows as complete so it is not as accurate as id like it to be because sometimes I have to ask the user to search for the software to make sure they do have it installed because tanium only reports on the completion of the deployment

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

scheduling deployments and doing it during off hours that way I do not have to login during off hours to perform the deployment, we can also send scripts to take actions in tanium without remoting in to user machines

What do you like best about the product?

I love the insights provided by Tanium on endpoint devices, specifically how it categorically visualizes the details about risk, vulnerability, compliance, and endpoint automation. The initial setup was easy with the SaaS version; we only needed cloud infrastructure or the Tanium team helped us to host and share services. I genuinely recommend my friends to deploy this tool for great insight into endpoint control.

What do you dislike about the product?

Tanium should enhance the security detection and integration for user accessibility control. It also needs improvement in the endpoint monitoring feature for kernel and services monitoring.
