Qualys VMDR vs. TechOwl Shield

Qualys VMDR is best suited for larger companies with a very large IT asset footprint. Qualys VMDR is not suited for businesses that are small and upcoming as the price for the tool is very expensive and could be a budget sink if not used properly. In our organization we use the Qualys VMDR dashboard and reporting in order to collect any vulnerabilities we miss during our routine audits to ensure that our environment is stable and protected for attacks.

TechOwl Shield is great when you need to monitor a lot of digital assets like websites, emails, and domains all in one place. It’s really helpful for spotting phishing threats or leaked info fast.

• Seamless reporting across the different widgets (i.e. TruRisk)
• DEEP-DIVE into an asset's info/vulns
• Baked-in PCI ASV scans that a Qualys QSA can approve

• Vulnerabilities Detections
• Open Port Detections
• Phishing Domain Detections

• Qualys VMDR can definitely improve on its reporting of assets as we have caught devices not captured in the Qualys VMDR scans.
• We would like to see an improvement on the dashboard interface as it is faulty sometimes.
• Qualys VMDR should focus on more competitive pricing as it is very expensive.

Next to Veeam (which is a tremendous product for backup/DR) this is the best service/software I have used in the past three decades. Should be called the Swiss Army Knife of security.

This is iron but I am giving it 5 star and I can give more If I can do because they are best in support. So once you own this product they will assign a dedicated support for you and when you are under the weather with anything just connect them with anything call, ping or ticket they will come like Genie.

Not really - the integrations via connectors is not heavy lifting. Any complexity has to do with a service that requires more steps (i.e. AWS/GCP)

It is a very similar tool but Qualys VMDR is much better when it comes to reporting and solutions provided. Asset management is really good in Qualys VMDR. Qualys VMDR support is really quick , you can get a TPM if you run into any issues. Qualys VMDR has wide variety of scanning options which lacks in tenable.

TechOwl Shield in itself is different in terms of what it offers as compared to others in this industry.

MOSTLY good - but as noted having all features purchased on portal only - nothing that is not purchased.

Outside some pretty arcane apps or OS this is painless. The problem - and self-inflicted - is that older stuff is not supported.
