    Digital Shadows
    DS is fantastic for big and large-medium companies, it has many very featured functions and works very well. It's a little bit expensive for small and little-medium companies.

    Cons
    Digital Shadows
    • I'd like to have still more features for searching on social media.
    • I'd like to have a better interface for configuration.
    • It's expensive for middle and small companies, I'd like to have a reduced-features version for them.

    • It could be a bit of information overload which some things are shown can become noise. Maybe different levels of "security" for lack of a better term may be better where you have a summary vs detailed level when it comes to rating the vulnerability of the entire network.
    • I find I sometimes have issues with PCs on a different network accessed across a VPN where timeouts often occur with very large updates. This aspect can be improved.

    Usability
    Digital Shadows
    It's very easy to use, also non-technical users can understand the information to use for search and results, initial configuration is less easy to configure but just a little.

    They are very available and competent, in addition, they used people with a good knowledge of the Italian language that helped very much, especially with the first customer.

    I only tried to access there support once and it was a relatively pain-free process. They also have a lot of documentation available online which can be used to learn and tailor the software to suit your needs. It just takes time and effort to plan, execute and monitor going forward.

    WSUS was the other alternative I considered but I believe GFI takes updates, reporting, and functionality to a different level for an enterprise/medium-size business environment.

    • Certainty. It allows you to know where on your network needs attention.
    • Peace of mind. As security professionals, we can only put the necessary things in place to prevent malicious persons from exploiting a network. The software allows you to know whether or not your risk of exploitation is high or low. and if high what to do with it.
