The asset visibility the platform brings is my favorite, Before Armis we had to use multiple tools and spreadsheets to, I dont know what, to hold our asset inventory together. The platform discovers and classifies all managed and unmanaged assets across the environment, including SCADA, PLCs, and DCS components, without requiring an agent on any of them. The AI driven anomaly detection goes beyond what we expected, its beyond the traditional signature based detection and picks up subtle behavioral deviations in asset activity, which has helped us catch suspicious lateral movement that a traditional firewall would have easily missed. Integration with out existing SIEM, ITSM, SOAR and EDR was very easy and also there was very detailed documentation for all the integrations.
Nothing needs to be installed on the devices to gain visibility into them; they only need to be connected to the network. Furthermore, the platform creates an automatic inventory and tells you which problems pose the greatest risk.
One thing I appreciate is the visibility it provides over connected devices. In retail environments there are many devices beyond laptops - screens, sensors, digital displays, and other in-store technology - and having a system that maps and monitors those devices helps avoid surprises. The device discovery and classification capabilities are also useful. It helps security teams quickly understand what is connected to the network, which is important when rolling out new store technology or temporary installations for campaigns. Another strength is the remote monitoring and control capabilities, which allow IT teams to identify risks early and address them without having to physically access every location.
I would say the licensing model, as the asset footprint grows, the cost scales in way its difficult to control. The reporting feature also needs some more work in what i see.
Sometimes it flags normal devices as suspicious and they have to be checked manually; also, the license costs are quite high and the interface can be quite complex
From a business user perspective, most of the platform sits behind the IT and security teams, so visibility for non-technical teams is limited. The terminology and dashboards can feel very technical if you're not from a cybersecurity background. Also, the value becomes clearer over time, which can make it harder initially for business teams to understand its impact.
