Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7 and others in Risk-Based Vulnerability Management."Qualys has a continuous endpoint monitoring feature for agent-based scanning. Once you deploy the solution, it monitors everything that is happening every 30 minutes. Then, if there are any vulnerabilities, they are reported."
"This is one of the best products I have worked with so far. I like the power of Qualys, and it's a better solution because you can scan a compact file, a BIT file, or batch files. The product already knows what's happening inside, and you don't need to expand the package. Tenable will do the same thing, but you need to have a package issuance claim. With Qualys, we can immediately understand the file, even a compact file. If there's some kind of discovery or incident, you will know what happened in the environment."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the external channel."
"I find Qualys VM very robust, and it's very useful for vulnerability management and patch management. The value that it brings to my environment is economies of scale. There is no limitation on adding any endpoints. You go by the rule, and it's added once another endpoint is added to our environment. It's automatically installed, and it's less work from our end. It frees up my license automatically if I don't need an endpoint or if my machine is decommissioned. I like the dashboard displays because I don't see any duplication. The most important part is vulnerability management and prioritization. Unlike Symantec, it shows the kind of vulnerability I would want to patch first. It provides a holistic view of the kind of vulnerabilities and the ones I should remediate first. I don't have to do a scan; it just brings up those critical kinds of vulnerabilities like zero-day vulnerabilities and tells me to prioritize them. You have to prioritize these vulnerabilities first and go on with the rest. The dashboard shows me the ones that have been fixed, so I don't have to complete an aging report. The user experience and the graphical interface are good. As it's user-friendly and understandable on an executive level, it brings real value. We also use this solution because it's robust and flexibile."
"Qualys VM's best feature is vulnerability management."
"We also like the flexibility in their licensing."
"The most valuable feature is the connection of threat intelligence information with identified vulnerabilities, which means you can prioritize vulnerabilities according to actual attacks."
"The initial setup was good. We didn't have any problems with it."
"The support is excellent."
"Without Skyhigh, we had zero visibility, but now we are aware of so much more."
"It gives us visibility into how the data is being used within our cloud environment."
"What I found most valuable in Skyhigh Security is its stability. The solution also has good KB articles that make it simple for users to do the deployment of Skyhigh Security themselves, without the need for integrators."
"It's an easy-to-use product."
"User analytics."
"The management is very good."
"It also prevents you from writing data to your Gmail and does not allow you to move your data outside of the corporate system. That is the most important feature for me."
"When tested on Zero day, there were errors."
"Finding things in management can be quite difficult."
"The ability to manage user accounts and give rights to the operator to know about abnormalities of applications is something that needs improvement."
"The price could be better. Asset view is still a legacy feature. I'm not able to extract the information about the asset with complete details. It would be better if they fixed that in the next release. I know Qualys is already working on it, so I'm hopeful it will be available in the next five or six months. That would be something that's changed where I seek improvement."
"Qualys VM should improve its methodology."
"We face issues while scanning multiple assets."
"Qualys currently does not have any features for scanning SCADA, IoT, and Industrial Control Systems."
"They're still evolving their platform in terms of reporting capabilities."
"Though the Skyhigh Dashboard is processing large amounts of data, the speed of the Dashboard could be improved."
"MVISION Cloud is not well known and there should be more information about the solution. There could be integration to local applications."
"The tool could improve flexibility with the creation of reports/querying data."
"It needs to be more user-friendly, as it is a little bit complicated to use."
"They could be integrated with CASB. I think normally McAfee has this solution in the cloud, but for us the best is on-premise."
"Iron out the few bugs that I've seen."
"They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support."
"I would like to see more power being given to the admin. In the sense that in case an employee is facing an issue and they want to configure a service, like attaching an email in Gmail, for example, they should be given the option to make the service request and get that configured on the go."
