Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, SentinelOne and others in Vulnerability Management."The solution helps us figure out vulnerabilities and fix them."
"Scanners and reports using CIS templates ("de-facto" standard, easy to fix and to locate correction tips at documentation), tests against cloud providers, database profiles, several types of telecom devices, and others highly customizable scans."
"It's scalable."
"I am impressed with the tool's vulnerability scanning."
"I have found the vulnerability assessment and the reports to be useful."
"It does exactly what you expect it to do, and its pricing is great. We couldn't really ask for a better deal."
"Among the most valuable features are scanning for vulnerabilities and the reporting. The reporting templates are okay. I like that I can see all the hosts with different vulnerabilities."
"Nessus is good at finding out what nodes you have in place. It will then provide you a report, by node, of what the vulnerabilities are. It does it quickly and stealthfully."
"The ease of use is the primary valuable feature. This specific version is very straightforward. I like the ability to modify it and configure it based on the different policies."
"The user interface is the only drawback of the product."
"The interface is a little bit clunky, and the reporting is not marvelous. There should be better integration of reporting between instances. Currently, the instance stands alone, and it produces a report. Being able to amalgamate those reports with another instance will be useful."
"Tenable Nessus is not feasible for a large company."
"One area that has room for improvement is the reporting. I'm preparing reports for Windows and Linux machines, etc. Currently, I'm collecting three or four reports and turning them into one report. I don't know if it is possible to combine all of them in one report, but that would be helpful."
"They should improve the I/O reporting and the customized spreadsheet export feature."
"Tenable Nessus application device assessment is one of the top tools. However, in the application security assessment, there are other tools that provide better, and more accurate findings."
"We would like to have the option of using the solution for the cloud as well as on-premises with the same license at the same time. That would be very helpful."
"The report for counters is too simple and would be improved by a dashboard."
"It would be nice for the professional module to include some of the reports available in the expert module."
