Easy to use and consume, stable with excellent customization
It would be ideal if there was customization with a focus on specific cybersecurity areas or capabilities. Fugue is cybersecurity, an operational monitoring solution, which has a broad set of capabilities. However, one needs to have substantial know-how in the cybersecurity domain to be able to identify and zero in on specific Fugue capabilities that may be relevant to a particular project or workstream pursuit. Being a system integrator, for us, it isn't an issue. For a client that is new to Fugue or relatively new to cybersecurity, it would be quite challenging to zero in on a specific sweet spot or capability.
OndrejKOVAC - PeerSpot reviewer
Empower clients with risk-based vulnerability management through continuous workflow and valuable insights
Tenable Security Center could improve by implementing more dynamic data displays and translating reports into European languages. This is especially relevant in Central Eastern Europe, where clients often require reports in local languages. Additionally, the licensing model could be more flexible for managed security providers, similar to a pay-as-you-go model.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"From a compliance and visibility reporting perspective, the fact that it can be applicable for multi-cloud environments is very helpful."
"The customization is excellent."
"It allows financial institutions to compare their vulnerability management to others in the same sector."
"The most effective feature of Tenable Security Center for detecting vulnerabilities is its capability for critical mapping."
"The most important features are the dashboard and reporting. The dashboard provides statistics with graphs and bar charts for our management."
"This product has the best results in terms of the lowest number of false-positives and false-negatives."
"Tenable.sc's best features are the availability model, accident management, and scoring."
"Support is knowledgeable."
"The most valuable feature of the product is the Assurance Report Card, which gives us an overview of the security poster in just a simple glance."
"One of the most valuable features is their distributed scan model for allotting engines to work together as a pool and handle multiple scans at once, across multiple environments. Automatic scanning distribution is a distinguishing feature of their toolset."
 

Cons

"It would be ideal if there was customization with a focus on specific cybersecurity areas or capabilities."
"The general input I have is that there is an opportunity for them to better align with other similar tools and better align with similar capabilities that cloud suppliers deliver natively."
"The solution should include compliance-based scanning."
"Though the solution's technical support is responsive, they do take a lot of time, making it one of the solution's shortcomings that needs improvement."
"The solution needs to improve the vulnerability assessment because we have experienced some challenges with accuracy."
"The web application is not very functional."
"The solution is expensive."
"We would like to see the inclusion of external IPs and simplified reporting that's easier to deal with"
"The solution needs to improve its support. I would like to see a bird's eye view of my network architecture. I would also like to see the continuous view feature in the tool."
"Tenable SC can improve by adding more integrations with HCI-type tools and more accurate vulnerability detection."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Compared to other companies or other products it could maybe be a little bit less, but the price is okay. I would say it's not very expensive."
"The price can start at €10,000 ($13,000 USD) for between 500 and 1,000 assets, and the price can climb into the millions as more assets are added."
"Tenable SC is priced per asset, with the basic solution starting around US$12,000 for 500 assets."
"Costing is pretty reasonable compared to the competition."
"The licensing costs for this solution are approximately $100,000 US, and I think that covers everything."
"Though reasonable, the main competitor of Tenable SC, Rapid7, offers a more aggressive and better priced product."
"It is a bit expensive. Everything is included in the license."
"I use a local license to perform penetration testing and I'm pretty happy with everything when it comes to pricing and licensing."
