Sometimes they go in the opposite direction, so this is an area that may be improved."
"It wasn't very clear how the scripts are running the scans. There's information about the script but it's not straightforward. The script information for each of the plugins should be available, but it doesn't give us straightforward direct information about how it was executed. That needs to be more clear."
"The report for counters is too simple and would be improved by a dashboard."
"They should improve the I/O reporting and the customized spreadsheet export feature."
"The solution should be able to support more devices."
