"For us, the most valuable tool was open-source licensing analysis."
"Its ease of use and good results are the most valuable."
"The solution is scalable."
"The overall support that we receive is pretty good. "
"There are multiple different integrations there. We use Mend for CI/CD that goes through Azure as well. It works seamlessly. We never have any issues with it."
"Enables scanning/collecting third-party libraries and classifying license types. In this way we ensure our third-party software policy is followed."
"The most valuable features of Tenable.io Web Application Scanning are the integration into specific use cases and scanning. All of the features of the solution are useful."
"Tenable.io Web Application Scanning is very easy to use."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Our customers adopt this solution because of the replication testing and the vulnerability assessment it can do. It is a multi-faceted product."
"We can get detailed information about vulnerabilities."
"It collects the vulnerabilities on the hostnames and sends them to the Tenable.io cloud. Tenable has its own cloud where Tenable.io is running, but there are many connectors to other cloud solutions. Tenable can do vulnerability scanning for other cloud managers such as Azure, Amazon, and so on."
"Tenable provides the end analysis results covering all the published vulnerabilities and information on the market."
"The solution's instant reports feature is the most effective for detecting threats."
"On the reporting side, they could make some improvements. They are making the reports better and better, but sometimes it takes a lot of time to generate a report for our entire organization."
"The UI is not that friendly and you need to learn how to navigate easily."
"WhiteSource needs improvement in the scanning of the containers and images with distinguishing the layers."
"I rated the solution an eight out of ten because WhiteSource hasn't built in a couple of features that we would have loved to use and they say they're on their roadmap. I'm hoping that they'll be able to build and deliver in 2022."
"The only thing that I don't find support for on Mend Prioritize is C++."
"We specifically use this solution within our CICD pipelines in Azure DevOps, and we would like to have a gate so that if the score falls below a certain value then we can block the pipeline from running."
"The initial setup could be simplified."
"They're working on a UI refresh. That's probably been one of the pain points for us as it feels like a really old application."
"It would be great if there were a dashboard that is more user-friendly."
"It isn't easy to manage vulnerabilities in Tenable."
"The dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"Tenable.io Web Application Scanning is not very user-friendly and you need a lot of information to get proper reports. The tool's support is not very responsive."
"Tenable.io Web Application Scanning conducts a general scan, which wastes time. The scan needs to be specific."
"The platform's technical support services could be better."
"The cloud and the on-premises versions have their own controllers, and there is no way to centrally manage controllers."
"They have a general dashboard for web application scanning, but the dashboards and reporting can be improved. They probably have some features in their roadmap."
