"The solution helps identify our environment's vulnerabilities."
"With its automated approach, nothing is missed on the IPs your organization is related to."

"I have experience with it on my attack stations, and it's pretty good to optimize. Personally, I think Nessus is quite a good product."
"SecurityScorecard's technical team's response time is an area that my company expects to be made faster."
"There could be more information in regards to solving problems like hints on what specifically to look for."
"They could improve the process with a questionnaire module for the product."
"The tool needs to have the ability to mitigate vulnerabilities with alternative solutions."
"There should be a possibility to install agents on scanned machines. Tenable IO provides the capability of using local agents to check local problems, but this feature is not there in Tenable Nessus Professional. It would be nice to have something similar in Tenable Nessus Professional. We should have the capability to use local agents installed on the machines to locally check a problem."

"Model OS costs (and its segregation schema for individual modules)."
"The tool needs to upgrade asset tracking."

"Pricing is one of the most important features, and it is something that they can improve on."
"The problems I faced with Tenable Nessus were related to its dashboard's customization capabilities and its ability to provide data to third-party sources."
