Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."The solution is very good at preventing intrusions. You can definitely rely on this solution to cover your security."
"The dashboard is very simple. It has an easy to use interface."
"The biggest thing, for us lately, has been their cloud tools. They're like Intercept X from Sophos, where they'll test for ransomware. Fortinet has the same sort of set up with their cloud devices. So your firewall picks up something suspicious, it sends it up to the cloud for analysis. We also have their in-house antivirus. Having different antivirus checkpoints throughout the network is a good thing as well."
"We use it to protect files and to prevent users from browsing them while they are being used."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the security aspects."
"It is extremely stable, and can expand as per our needs due to its stability."
"One of the most valuable features is their distributed scan model for allotting engines to work together as a pool and handle multiple scans at once, across multiple environments. Automatic scanning distribution is a distinguishing feature of their toolset."
"Support is knowledgeable."
"Has a great advanced scanning feature."
"Tenable SC's most valuable features are the low number of false positives and the strong capability of providing prioritization for the vulnerabilities detected."
"The tool provides us insight into the happens of the network and its hosts. It provides me with a list of hosts."
"Initial setup was pretty straightforward."
"I think that this is a good solution for evaluating vulnerability in the network."
"It is a very good and user-friendly product."
"The pricing of this solution is a little bit on the high side and can be improved."
"I would like better APIs and integration with other products, like Python and SQL."
"I'm an old-school guy. I really don't like web GUI interfaces. They're always slow and laggy and their design is restricted, whereas a binary deployment for an admin tool is always faster, easier, more flexible. I would like that kind of functionality from Fortinet."
"Some use case analyses could be improved."
"They need to improve the web filter to make it more user-friendly."
"We had some issues trying to fix some critical bugs, such as the SSL encryption."
"If I want to have a very low-managed scan policy, it's a lot of work to create something which is very basic. If I use a tool like Nmap, all I have to do is download it, install it, type in the command, and it's good to go. In Security Center, I have to go through a lot of work to create a policy that's very basic."
"The reporting needs a lot of work on the template."
"Tenable has some problems with agents going offline during scanning and lag between agents and the security center."
"Security can always be improved."
"Certain aspects require manual effort, such as exporting and analyzing data for our dashboards. The built-in components of the Tenable solution are somewhat clumsy that require external tools. So, this is an area of improvement."
"I think the vendor training provided for Tenable.sc could be a lower price. It's quite expensive for the training."
"The GUI could be improved to have all concerns and priorities use the same GUI, allowing them to see all tickets, assign vulnerabilities, and assign variation failures to each member of their team."
"Tenable.sc's user interface could be improved."
