"The stability is great. We haven't had any issues at all with it."
"We procured around 110 licenses for Web Application Scanning, but we have issues running concurrent scans. I don't currently have the option to trigger scans for all 100-plus websites. The default limit is around 10 conference scans. It's not very scalable, to be honest, because of the limitation that they put on concurrent scans."
"Deployment can be complicated."
"Qualys Web Application Scanning is very complex to use, and its graphical interface is not very user-friendly."
"The virus code updates are not frequent enough."

"The pricing does not seem to be competitive."
"I would like to see a little more flexibility with regards to setting up profiles for vulnerabilities."
