How Rebasoft compares

What separate tools can’t tell you about your services.

Each tool answers for its own part of the estate. Rebasoft starts from the services you run, and gives operations, security and governance one set of facts.

Start from your services

Three questions separate tools struggle to answer

Which machines support this service?

An inventory lists devices and a scanner lists findings. Neither shows what each device does for the business.

What should we fix first?

Severity alone treats a flaw on a test system like the same flaw on the payments web server.

What did nobody check?

A dashboard counts what it reached, so what it missed stays out of sight.

Side by side

What changes when you start from your services

Vulnerability scanners

Risk ranked by your business, not only by severity

The usual approach: A scanner concentrates on finding vulnerabilities. Asset ownership, business importance and compliance evidence usually sit in other tools.
The Rebasoft approach: Findings are derived from what is installed, filtered against vendor advisories and ranked by known exploitation and by the services your organisation runs on. Devices that could not be assessed are reported as Not assessed.
What you gain: A shorter list your team can act on, with no separate scanning schedule to manage and vulnerability data beside assets, traffic and evidence.

ServiceNow and CMDBs

Better asset data for the platform you already run

The usual approach: A CMDB is only as reliable as the discovery data behind it, and keeping that data current takes time most small teams do not have.
The Rebasoft approach: Agentless discovery shows why an asset is incomplete and who should resolve it, with vulnerabilities and network traffic alongside. Asset status changes can open a ServiceNow incident, and the read API makes assets available to your CMDB.
What you gain: Cleaner data behind your service management process, from a platform that also handles risk and evidence.

Compliance platforms

Technical evidence your compliance programme can stand on

The usual approach: Compliance platforms depend on the integrations you connect, so their view of the estate ends where those integrations end.
The Rebasoft approach: Scope comes from discovery rather than from a list someone maintains. Cyber Essentials is built in, the same evidence supports audits against the wider standards you work to, and an unverified control is never shown as a pass.
What you gain: Evidence drawn from the estate itself. Keep your platform and feed it Rebasoft reports, or where Cyber Essentials is the requirement, let one platform cover the work.

Asset inventory tools

An inventory that also shows what to do next

The usual approach: An inventory shows what you own. Acting on it usually means moving to other tools for risk, traffic and compliance.
The Rebasoft approach: Vulnerabilities, network traffic and compliance evidence sit next to each asset, flow analysis finds hosts that credentials miss, and every discovery blocker carries a cause and an owner.
What you gain: Inventory, risk and traffic answers in one platform.

Network monitoring tools

Network traffic tied to the assets behind it

The usual approach: Network monitoring shows how devices are performing and how much traffic is moving across them.
The Rebasoft approach: Both halves of a conversation are paired and tied to the asset at each end, and east-west traffic is judged by what each end is, alongside SNMP health for your network devices.
What you gain: Traffic you can act on, in the same place as your asset and risk data. A UK school replaced two network tools with Rebasoft.

Asset aggregators

Direct collection, rather than another layer

The usual approach: An aggregator correlates what your other tools have already collected, so it adds a layer while those tools remain in place.
The Rebasoft approach: Rebasoft collects ARP, flow and credentialed data directly, so it knows what it reached, with risk ranking and compliance evidence alongside.
What you gain: Fewer tools to license and run, rather than one more on top of them.

Comparisons describe typical tool categories, based on public sources read in November 2026.

Consolidation

Where tools can come together

Can replace means Rebasoft can take over that job. Consolidates means it covers much of the job, so you can decide at renewal what you still need.

Asset inventory

Can replace

Asset discovery, end-of-life tracking and ownership in a single inventory.

Vulnerability scanner

Consolidates

Vulnerability management built on collected inventory, ranked by exploitation and by the services you run on.

Compliance evidence

Consolidates

Cyber Essentials is built in, with a live verdict and a pre-filled submission workbook.

Network and traffic monitoring

Can replace

NetFlow, IPFIX and sFlow analysis tied to the asset at each end, with SNMP health for network devices.

Consolidation without disruption

Rebasoft works with your service desk, SIEM, EDR, backup, firewall and MDM, so you simplify without changing how your team operates.

The staged route

A low-risk route to consolidation

Run alongside

Deploy Rebasoft next to your existing tools, with nothing switched off.

Compare answers

See asset counts, top risks and coverage side by side on the same estate.

Consolidate at renewal

Retire each overlapping contract as it falls due, with the evidence in front of you.
