Find out in this report how the two Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The tool's most valuable feature is scan configurations. We use it for external physical applications. The scanning time depends on the application's code."
"We are able to create a report which shows the PCI DSS scoring and share it with the application teams. Then, they can correlate and see exactly what they need to fix, and why."
"For us, the most valuable aspect of the solution is the log-sequence feature."
"The most important feature is that it's a web-based graphical user interface. That is a great addition. Also, the ability to schedule scans is great."
"The usability and overall scan results are good."
"We use the solution for the scanning of vulnerabilities like SQL injections."
"The tool's most valuable feature is performance."
"It comes equipped with an internal applicator, which automatically identifies and addresses vulnerabilities within the program."
"It is very stable, and it is updated periodically by adding new vulnerabilities."
"It is quite straightforward to set up."
"The product is easy to use."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"The initial setup is mostly straightforward."
"It is easy to manage. Most of the information the tool provided helped to further investigate the vulnerability and its impact."
"There is no burden of updating or upgrading this solution."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution's pricing could be better."
"There's a clear need for a reduction in pricing to make the service more accessible."
"While we do have it integrated with other solutions, it could still offer more integrations."
"Acunetix needs to include agent analysis."
"It would be nice to have a feature to "retest" only a single vulnerability that the customer reports as patched, and delete it from the next scans since it has already been patched."
"You can't actually change your password after you've set it unless you go back into the administration account and you change it there. Thus, if you're locked out and don't remember your password, that's a thing."
"The vulnerability identification speed should be improved."
"The jargon used makes it difficult for project managers to understand the issues, and the technical explanations used make it difficult for developers to understand issues. These things should be simplified much more. That would be very helpful for us when explaining to them what needs to be fixed. The report output needs to be simplified."
"Tenable could improve visibility into assets, including automated asset tagging. You should be able to automatically tag assets based on location, function, ownership, etc. That would help us because we spend a lot of time identifying and tagging assets by hand."
"They've been able to think about everything in terms of where the world is going and the type of assets that you've got. They've everything sorted out in that aspect, but you have to pay for most of the other components that they've got to give you complete visibility across your tech surface. If it already had those capabilities in-built, without having to add them on to take advantage of them, it would be a very compelling value proposition."
"The one drawback that we have found is the reports."
"The solution is a bit slow."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"Tenable.io Vulnerability Management could be improved with an increased number of dashboards and MSSP integration."
"It can have more integration."
"They need to have more dependable and faster support."
