Qualys

Qualys is the pioneer and leading provider of information security and compliance cloud solutions. In practice that means collecting evidence and tracking controls for frameworks like SOC 2 or HIPAA.

Who is it for? Mostly companies that sell to larger customers. They also list Business Process Automation (BPA), Compliance and Security, so expect those to show up in the feature set. As a large product team themselves (1,001 to 5,000 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. At that size expect formal onboarding, documentation and a longer sales cycle.

Qualys is based in Redwood City, California and around since 1999. You can read more at qualys.com.

Things worth asking about: frameworks covered, auditor network, and integrations. Ask for a trial on your own data, not a canned demo.

If you have worked with Qualys, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
