Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7 and others in Risk-Based Vulnerability Management."We feel the interface is very good. It is very easy to use, even a nontechnical person can use it."
"When you connect any new device to the network, Rapid7 has the ability to detect the new device immediately. It can scan that device to detect if it has any vulnerability. It tells you what is vulnerable and what has been misconfigured. It also tells you what is the risk of that misconfiguration or lack of patches and how to resolve the problem."
"The remediation project is a pretty effective because it allows us, as clients or countries, to choose specific assets and set limitations on them for a certain period which allows us to track and follow up on those limitations. However, when it comes to real-time monitoring and live dashboards, InsightVM doesn't quite fit the bill. It's not a real-time solution and is not instant."
"The most valuable features are its reporting capabilities and the host discovery functionality."
"It's easy to use. It's fast, it's a powerful easy to access tool."
"I like Rapid7's scan optimization options."
"InsightVM's best features are the vulnerability database and remediation steps."
"The cost is what is most valuable. Compared to the other products on the market, the cost is more palatable."
"It is very good for data visualization. It has very powerful visualizations and is easy to use."
"From my perspective, it enables clients to better understand our data and make better decisions based on that information."
"The product’s performance is better than other tools."
"I like Tableau's heat maps and the storyboard. You can create data stories and tons of visuals with it, and it goes together really well. Tableau lets you manipulate the data in various ways."
"The solution is configurable and flexible. We can customize the dashboards and configure the interface the way that we want. The data can be manipulated and arranged in different ways, such as columns."
"The most valuable features are data discovery and fine visualizations."
"Data Interpreter: Which can identify issues or potential errors with your imported data."
"All features are valuable. It is very user-friendly, and it is mostly drag-and-drop. If we have the dataset available, then we can develop any dashboard very quickly."
"Rapid7 InsightVM could be easier to use for those who are using it for the first time."
"The on-premise updates could improve from Rapid7 InsightVM."
"I would like to see more integration."
"Some of our customers want to be completely cloud based, and Rapid7 doesn't offer this as an option."
"The solution should include a tighter integration with third-party threat modeling and threat intelligence tools."
"In order to be able to properly test the solution and make a decision, I would like to receive the test license code instantly and eliminate the wait time."
"We are a registered reseller and a trusted partner. However, for us to get any support from them I can't log a call directly with Rapid7 InsightVM. I have to work with the distributor to log the call for me."
"All products have room for increased security and Rapid7 InsightVM is no exception."
"Its documentation can be improved so that a user can get a good hands-on experience. Tableau is well documented, and on their website, there are a lot of tutorials that are available for free. I started my learning process through those tutorials, but there are certain loopholes in those tutorials, which only got filled through a couple of good YouTube channels that talk about Tableau. YouTube helped me a lot. So, the documentation could be better, I understand that it is evolving day by day, and with more usage, there would be more such documentation."
"Areas for improvement would be visualization and augmented analytics. In the next release, I would like to see automated insights from the data added to the dashboard."
"Improvements in schema security and row/column security need to be made."
"There should be more GIS features, such as location analysis, which is quite limited. There are very few location-based functionalities."
"The data processing in Tableau is pathetic compared to Qlik."
"When compared to Power BI, it is less user-friendly."
"The customization in the front end is a bit difficult."
"People are migrating to Microsoft BI due to the speed, which is quite slow to load, and the lack of visualization options."
