03 / ONE AGENT VS. SEPARATE TOOLS
What you gain with dome
instead of stitching several tools together.
Protection, vulnerabilities, patching and access are usually bought separately. See the difference in your team’s routine.
Agents on devices
dome · One agent for protection, vulnerabilities, patching and access.
Separate · One agent per tool, each with its own install, updates and conflicts.
Gain · Simpler rollout and less load on devices.
Dashboards and consoles
dome · One screen with inventory, alerts, flaws and access.
Separate · One console per vendor; the team cross-references data by hand.
Gain · Less time switching screens and rebuilding context.
From alert to fix
dome · Detection, AI investigation and remediation in one flow.
Separate · The alert starts in one tool, the patch in another, access in a third.
Gain · Faster response, without handing the case between systems.
Who decides the response
dome · Human approval or autopilot, configured by the customer.
Separate · Different automation rules in each tool.
Gain · One policy, with every decision logged.
Contracts and licenses
dome · One contract, priced per endpoint.
Separate · Several contracts, renewals and billing models.
Gain · Predictable spend that is easier to justify.
Reports and audit
dome · Evidence of protection, fixes and access in one place.
Separate · Reports exported from each system and merged by hand.
Gain · Accountability ready for leadership and auditors.
A comparison of functions, not performance. Gains depend on your environment and plan; zero-trust access is in the Complete plan.
