    We are a small company; Norton Small Business gives us the freedom for our remote employees to work securely using their personal laptop /smartphone. Less appropriate: Someone with a few separate locations that require separate cybersecurity environment but would still benefit from centralized management.

    • Technical reports include remediation information and cross reference CVSS scores
    • Because it maintains data on all repeated assessments it helps us to do trending and metrics on compliance

    Cons
    HCLSoftware
    • It can have a FAQ session in the Application itself.
    • It can recommend the fix for the error that occurred during the scan.
    • Like its storing multiple manuals explore, It should have the capability of storing multiple logins.

    It's good for a small business that needs cybersecurity without needing to spend a lot of money. Besides being affordable it seems to be extremely, reliable, and easy to use.

    Both solutions are decent, however, I had team members who had the experience working with HCL AppScan. Also, the product was priced nominally which suited our budget. Further, HCL AppScan's user community was bigger and many learning resources were freely available which helped junior peers learn quickly and eliminate any issues

    We did not actively consider any other software. Overall we did do a basic understanding of a pricing & features and found that the offerings from Symantec were better than others even prima facie. At the current time for an organisation such as ours we do not believe that there is any other option worth active consideration

    Return on Investment
    HCLSoftware
    • There are countless implementations to accomplish the same thing, and so many configurations are required.
    • Even if you test it finished and find no vulnerabilities, there is no point if you just get the error screen.
    • Until now, I was worried about vulnerabilities and security in software development, but I think it was good to find the vulnerability problem quickly with HCL AppScan.
