Why is vRx Better Than SentinelOne Ranger?
vRx's real time vulnerability detection, contextual prioritization, and native patching provide organizations with the tools they need to efficiently reduce risk
vRx continuously scans your environment and dynamically prioritizes based on context and predictive factors so you can respond rapidly and efficiently. Tie it all together with vRx’s native patch management, automation, and patchless protection for a complete end to end solution and remove risks from your environment today.
vRx's end-to-end approach and continuous scanning reduces vulnerability detection time to the same day it is introduced to your environment versus point-in-time scanners which are typically run monthly

Top Reasons to Choose vRx over SentinelOne
Real-Time Data
vRx’s continuous vulnerability discovery means your security teams will have the latest vulnerability data at all times allowing them to secure environments much more effectively than with point in time scans.
Streamlined Platform
Built in patch management for both 3rd party apps and all major OS families enables IT teams to remediate vulnerabilities extremely quickly. Having this capability in the same vulnerability management platform allows for easy tracking of vulnerabilities from detection to remediation.
Precise Prioritization
vRx’s intelligent prioritization engine takes the context of where each vulnerability exists within the environment along with a multitude of other data points. This automatically assigns a risk based priority to each app, OS, and asset so your team can focus their efforts where it’s needed most and ignore the noise of vulnerabilities less likely to be exploited in your environment.
24/7 Security
vRx's Patchless Protection™ provides an additional security layer to ensure you're always protected even when there's no patch or update available.
Robust Scripting
vRx’s scripting engine allows for greater flexibility when mitigating configuration based vulnerabilities, deploying software, or performing any other IT and Security tasks you can dream up.

Feature Name
Vulnerability Scanning
vRx is continuously detecting and reporting new vulnerabilities in your environment. Using lightweight agents and an intuitive cloud dashboard, you will always be informed on the current active CVEs in your environment at all times.
In addition to the continuous scan performed by the agents, we also sync with NIST NVD continuously so you always know if the latest vulnerabilities exist in your organization. vRx is able to detect vulnerabilities across all major OS’s (Windows, MacOS, and Linux) as well as thousands of third party apps.
Ranger uses an existing S1 EDR to perform network scans primarily searching for rogue devices. Because the scan is periodic, you are susceptible to attack vectors that may be created in between scans like a new vulnerability or user installing a vulnerable app as well as situations when a device may be offline during a scan.
Because this is uses existing nodes to scan for other networked devices it would only classify as an “outside in” scan which can be less accurate and informative when compared to an inside out scan.
Vulnerability Remediation
vRx not only detects vulnerabilities but also has the tools to remediate them. Depending on the nature of the vulnerability, vRx has a corresponding mitigation method available.
Ranger does not have any remediation capabilities, nor does it integrate with any remediation platform causing remediation processes to be siloed and potentially disjointed.
Contextual Prioritization
vRx goes beyond basic vulnerability detection by analyzing and weighing additional risk factors associated with each vulnerability. From there, the prioritization engine automatically assigns an easy to read risk score so you know where your security and IT teams need to spend the most time and energy.
Ranger is able to display some severity factors for detected vulnerabilities.
Patch Management
vRx makes patch management easy. OS and 3rd party app patches are automatically aggregated in vRx for you and are able to be installed on endpoints through one time patches as well as through automations.
Ranger does not offer any patch management. This means you will need additional tools to address this stage of the vulnerability lifecycle with Ranger - this increases risk, effort, and costs.
OS/App Inventory
vRx fully supports all major OS’s (Windows, Linux, and MacOS) as well as over 2700 apps across all OS’s. This includes identifying which patches are needed in your environment and installing them from the vendor repositories.
Not only does vRx support all these OS/Apps it dynamically tracks and displays which ones exist in your environment, what version, and where - the first step in an effective vulnerability management program.
Ranger does not have any App or OS inventory making it incredibly difficult to properly understand the different risks in your environment.
Continuous Assessment
vRx’s agents report the latest vulnerability data to a cloud dashboard in real time. Vulnerabilities can be introduced into an environment through a new vulnerability being published, a new app being installed, and new devices joining the network. Not having to wait until the next scheduled scan to detect these is an important component in reducing organizational risk.
Ranger is based on periodic, point-in-time scans leaving potential for blindspots or gaps between scans.
Great Overall Value
All of vRx’s features are included for one price which is simply based on the number of agents. The reduction in risk and effort required provides partners and end customers with fantastic ROI.
With the lack of remediation, continuous assessment, and prioritization, Ranger does not offer the same value as vRx.
