Heimdal Application Control vs. VMware AppDefense (discontinued)

in our work space it has helped us curtail difficulties with fiscal management

Being a VMware product, AppDefense has the advantage of compatibility with all of the VMware product feature updates and patches ( ESXi, NSX, vCenter, etc.). Paired with Carbon Black, it's resource overhead is well-tuned compared to traditional antivirus products.

• Fiscal management
• data registry
• applications control

• I think that the AppDefense approach is clever and sets it apart from other products. Having a baseline of normal behavior that I can see is something I haven't seen in another product before.
• AppDefense doesn't overload my systems with performance draining agents.
• AppDefense integrates with VMWare products I have or plan to purchase.
• Access to AppDefense support has been better than any other VMWare products.

The product is still quite new, and there seems to be a lack of technical information available for both the E.U. and support staff. That being said, the support staff that I have worked with have always been very knowledgeable and ensure that they see a ticket through to completion.

I select it because i want easy access and application for my work spaces and it provides exactly what i need

We have several security applications, but none exactly like VMware AppDefense. That is one of the reasons I like it, as it seems to take a different angle on monitoring and protection. The other apps monitor different things, but one thing AppDefense seems to have over them is a streamlined interface and not a lot of false positives.

• so far so good, it has impacted us positively
• we are yet to observe any serious difficulties

• As with everything now, automation is key. AppDefense effectively monitors the activity on all our VMs, freeing administrators to work on more projects
• Makes it much easier to diagnose issues when system are not running as intended
