GFI Systems vs. Trimble Fleet Mobility

When our client wants to host email onsite, not in the cloud, our go-to is GFI Systems MailEssentials. You can set up allowed or blocked emails based on many parameters. The quarantine feature is easy to manage. Sometimes it "catches" too many emails. Easy to fix, though! GFI Systems LanGuard is so comprehensive that initial scans take forever to run! But it is so comprehensive that it catches *everything*! Not just viruses, and lack of updates--it catches things in the endpoint's registry. And provides the full information on the endpoint in order to identify and fix it. Thanks, guys for great products!

Appian is well suited for optimization of routes and contrary to what Appian claims, it is not well suited for scheduling.

• Security is their main focus and they do an excellent job providing users the ability to use all tools in one product.
• Their reports are very detailed and have the option to auto email key people with executive reports to keep track of vulnerabilities and patch status.
• Keeping costs low, no other company could offer as much as they do for everything they offer.

• Appian is excellent for use in both the analysis arena and ongoing operations support. The speed to solution and quality of solution is at the top of the market.
• The configurability of the system gives the user the flexibility to address almost any route problem imaginable. Analysts have the ability to recreate the "world" to fit their customer's needs rather than forcing the customer into a predetermined framework.
• The installation of the software is flexible and can be structured to fit any work group's format, from a centralized core to a distributed mobile analysis team.

• GFI Systems MailEssentials would be nice to have the possibility to block emails from overseas. Make that customizable, too!
• Have a "lite" version of GFI Systems LanGuard so we can do a quick check, if we would like to
• How about a special "partner" phone number for support? One where a partner can access support more quickly?

• Transit times are sometimes inaccurate/inconsistent.
• Software can slow down as a route file undergoes many changes.
• Large quantity of input files can sometimes create confusion/inconsistency when route files are shared by multiple users.

Many issues with the system and I will probably recommend other type of software if the question arises. Because of the investment my company has made, I will use the system for now.

The Support zteam for GFI was with us all the way through, and I believe that they had the best support team of all the products that we use and/or tested.

Appian was best suited for an analysis environment both functionally and from a cost structure standpoint. Other packages are targeting ongoing operations and their cost structures reflect that goal. The purely analytical environment can underestimated in these situations. There is definitely a need for non operation specific analysis tools in the marketplace.

• GFI Systems does save us a lot of time and makes it very convenient to manage clients. Remote access usually works well.
• For our business GFI Systems is a bit expensive. The total cost is like hiring a full time employee.
• It would be nice if the backup function was more robust and better thought out. Until then, we are seeking another service for our client's backup needs.
