    If you're looking for an End to End fraud solution you should definitely consider Actimize Integrated Fraud Management. Actimize providing great support during implementation process. And i believe both Operations And Analytics teams will find this system very friendly and useful

    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.

    • 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.

    Product is continuously optimized by the end user/customer and in line with banking applications as the go-to place. Also, KYC and AML work is key in this area which NICE Actimize offers. And DataIQ is a good offering with data intelligence helping to deal with the intelligence automation and AI trends.

    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.

    As a fraud prevention consultant i worked both with Actimize IFM And Fico Falcon.
    For Card Fraud (debit/credit) Falcon has an advantage, but on the end to end fraud Actimize is a better investment.

    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.

    • 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
