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."The solution offers very nice dashboards and they've recently added a very good Java-based web interface."
"The most impressive feature is optimization and clean-up."
"The most valuable feature is the compliance, whether it's access compliance or the configuration compliance, to make sure that all of our devices are configured as they're supposed to be, to limit access as much possible, to follow least-access guidelines."
"I am impressed with the tool's change management, firewall and network assurance."
"We are currently working on rule review and compliance. The logging features are good."
"It's very supportive and very user-friendly."
"Robust modules can be used for different parts of network security."
"The way that it's built with three-tier architecture, it makes it very horizontally scalable, so I can have multiple fallbacks. If one machine does fall offline, there are four other machines that are doing the exact same job to pick it up"
"The most important features are the dashboard and reporting. The dashboard provides statistics with graphs and bar charts for our management."
"Support is knowledgeable."
"The most valuable feature of the product is the Assurance Report Card, which gives us an overview of the security poster in just a simple glance."
"Tenable Security Center scans networks and gives reports."
"The scans are the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"It is a very good and user-friendly product."
"Tenable's most valuable features are the credential scan, vulnerability reports, and vulnerability ratings (VPR)."
"What is useful to me is being able to fulfill very customized scanning policies. In the clinical environment, because of vendor control, we can't perform credential-vulnerability scanning. And network scans, which I've done before, can cause a lot of impact. Being able to create very customized policies to be able to routinely scan and audit our clinical networks, while simultaneously not causing impact, is important to us."
"The initial setup with Skybox Security is hard. You need one or two strong security engineers on your team."
"During implementation, we realised approximately 30 devices were not supported by the Skybox platform."
"The solution needs to add more automation and orchestration capabilities. Those features would make the solution much stronger."
"The tool does not offer options for customization."
"They are not satisfied with the complexity of the solution and the price."
"The support could be improved."
"The price is costly, and I hope they can reduce the cost."
"I've had issues with licensing where, when they were expiring and I asked for the updated licenses, I would the wrong ones. I think their process needs to be straightened out a little bit - I don't know if they fixed it already, it has been awhile. It wasn't as straightforward as it could have been."
"I think the vendor training provided for Tenable.sc could be a lower price. It's quite expensive for the training."
"The product could be user-friendly, and they could enhance the web application's security features."
"The reporting needs a lot of work on the template."
"The GUI could be improved to have all concerns and priorities use the same GUI, allowing them to see all tickets, assign vulnerabilities, and assign variation failures to each member of their team."
"The product should provide risk-based vulnerability management."
"The solution should include compliance-based scanning."
"Tenable has some problems with agents going offline during scanning and lag between agents and the security center."
"Security can always be improved."
