Find out in this report how the two Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is very user friendly. There are not a lot of clicks and buttons. The tool helps me with the installations. The user can do the installation rather than having a technical guide. I also like the browsing stream. It has a good dashboard."
"The support for ARCON ARSIM is very good."
"Good for productivity checking."
"It's scalable."
"Makes ransomware checking and OS auditing and implementation relatively easy."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"Out of the box, the product works well for us, so it's not a tool that we need to customize very much."
"With the Tenable Nessus enterprise edition, you have unlimited licenses to scan the device."
"Ease of reviewing scores, identifying vulnerabilities, and getting information on them."
"It also has an executive report where you don't have to provide the client all the detail for them to sift though. But if they wish to dig through the detail they can."
"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."
"The automation needs to be improved."
"As for what can be improved, definitely pricing. Customers look for pricing and ARCON is a little more expensive than Thycotic. So the pricing model could be improved."
"I would love to have all the products. Currently they have all the server operating systems and network operating systems but they should have all the other devices also included, like security devices. That's what I think is missing. They should also improve the license audit part. If I want to do a license audit from this tool, I'm not able to do it right now."
"I would like to see an improvement in the ranking of high, medium and low vulnerability."
"We use credentialed scans. They need more permissions and more changes or settings on Windows and Linux."
"There is room, overall, for improvement in the way it groups the workstations and the way it detects, when the vulnerability is scanned. Even when we would run a new scan, if it was an already existing vulnerability, it wouldn't put a new date on it."
"One significant drawback we encounter is the tool's tendency to flag patched packages incorrectly. For instance, if a package is patched by Debian maintainers but not updated to a major or minor version, Nessus may still flag it as vulnerable based on its database. This discrepancy leads to false alarms and requires our developers, system admins, and DevOps teams to address them."
"The solution could improve security updates."
"They should try to create an all-in-one solution."
"The report for counters is too simple and would be improved by a dashboard."
"The product must be more comprehensive."
