"Qualys Web Application Scanning is very complex to use, and its graphical interface is not very user-friendly."

"The pricing does not seem to be competitive."
"They should try to include business logic vulnerabilities in the scanner testing."
"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."
"Sometimes the response time is low because the handshake fails, and then you have to re-login and start again."
"The GUI could be a little less complicated as it opens a lot of new windows for creating search lists, templates, reports, or for scanning purposes."
"I would like to see a little more flexibility with regards to setting up profiles for vulnerabilities."
