"I am impressed with the tool's vulnerability scanning."
"Nessus' most valuable feature is vulnerability management because it helps to discover vulnerabilities proactively and integrates with patch management solutions so you can push patches."
"User friendly and good dashboards."
"The solution can scale well."
"A valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to understand."
"The most valuable feature of Tenable Nessus is the dashboard. They are convenient to use."
"The most valuable feature of Tenable Nessus is vulnerability assessments. There are a lot of threats around the world and this solution is the first to come out with detection rules."
"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."
"No third-party applications or integrations with additional software solutions."
"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 could improve the reporting by adding some dashboards. The reports are a hassle at this time. Tenable.io has more detailed reports. Having a better dashboard that can show where the vulnerabilities are and be categorized would be helpful. We then could present them to upper management for a deep overview of our network posture which they do not see."
"We'd like to see more integration potential within the solution."
"The features are limited when it comes to scanning network devices for vulnerabilities."
"We use credentialed scans. They need more permissions and more changes or settings on Windows and Linux."
"Multiple user access would be an area for improvement from a user-access perspective. A role-based access control feature would be great because at present, there is a limitation with only one account. If that account gets compromised or gets locked, then we will encounter problems."
"I would like to have a management option after the network scanning."
"Lacks some penetration testing-related services."
