    We have found Qualys TotalCloud useful to track down and identify specific files or packages, which helped us to verify that the solution we had implemented was successful. It also helped us do identify false positives, since the paths of the files are included in the Qualys TotalCloud details, so we could see if files were just and set of old install files.

    It is best suited for an on-premise cloud solution where customer can shift their entire production environment. Also, the customer has a preference for a Homogenous Infrastructure Environment where budget is not a challenge. It is not at all suited for a Heterogenous Environment, e.g., a Public cloud where integration becomes a huge issue, also in SMB sections where budget is challenging.

    • The Deployment is complex.
    • Recommended Number of Physical Nodes is three or more; with less than 3 Nodes, it becomes difficult to install V-SAN.
    • Need for better integration. If we go on the public cloud, it is a huge challenge while integrate with an open source platform.
    • Cost can be marginally reduced. SMB segments still prefer a separate license instead of VCF, or they postpone their purchase plans.

    After installing Qualys TotalCloud, it was just a matter of initiating a service or daemon and it continues to run. There is no maintenance or special monitoring needed. Qualys TotalCloud seamlessly reports the required information to Cisco Security and all we need to do is check the Cisco Security interface for any vulnerabilities that we need to address.

    Although the public Cloud Model follows Opex Costing Model, it actually leads to very high costs also, the infra model in my organization is not suited for a Public Cloud Model. Hence We decided on an On-Premise Model, and the best suited was VMware Cloud Foundation, which is a complete Software-Defined Scale-Out Architecture. I also prefer a Homogenous environment; i.e, support and services from a Single OEM, so that I Can get faster resolutions to my tickets raised.

    • My organization has a size of 1300+ employees, using multiple applications and an exchange mail server that is hosted on On-Premise Cloud, hence scalability has not been a challenge.
    • Having hosted my Production environment and Mail exchange Server on VCF, there has been optimum resource utilization with very little scope downtime. Hence have been able to save a lot of funds on Hardware resources.
    • Due to the size of my organization and due the data load, I have been able to save on Resource Utilization and Organization Funds
