We performed a comparison between Brinqa and Tenable Nessus based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7 and others in Risk-Based Vulnerability Management."The most valuable features of Brinqa are its data integration capabilities."
"Tenable Nessus is one of the best vulnerability assessment tools, that I know."
"My favorite part about Nessus is that you can customize the tool to scan exactly what you want. Microsoft releases new patches monthly on Patch Tuesday, and a lot of companies track that date. I set up Nessus for the day after Patch Tuesday to see which devices have already pushed those updates from Microsoft, so we can stay updated."
"A valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to understand."
"The product's most valuable features are vulnerability and asset management. It can define the rules and validate the configuration."
"The reports are pretty nice and easy to understand."
"It's scalable."
"It gives a holistic view of your entire environment."
"Once you get past the initial implementation, the solution is very stable."
"Brinqa could improve in terms of the speed of their service and resource provision."
"Nessus' reporting could be more user-friendly."
"This is still a maturing product. Tenable is only a scanner for one ability, while other solutions like Rapid7 have more tools for verification. We still have to manually verify to see if the vulnerability is a false positive or not."
"The inventory management function in this solution needs improvement."
"I would like to have a management option after the network scanning."
"They have added a new Tenable Nessus Expert. That is their new product, which caters to the cloud and everything else. I am assuming that the new features and product enhancements are based on that tool set, but we haven't reviewed it yet."
"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."
"Tenable Nessus is not feasible for a large company."
"There could be an integration between Tenable Nessus and other Tenable products. It will help us manage all the solutions using one dashboard."
