Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."Penetration testing and scans are useful features."
"All of the features are great."
"Technical support has been helpful and responsive."
"The Search Engineering feature is good."
"It's not possible to do penetration testing without being very proficient in Metasploit."
"It is scalable. It's in line with our needs."
"The option to generate phishing emails has proven to be very valuable in understanding the behavior of users."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the scripts, the modules, and the tools that the Rapid7 Metasploit framework has."
"The tool's most useful feature for penetration testing is its automation capabilities. With the professional edition, you can upload the results from Nessus in the Rapid7 Metasploit solution portal."
"The reports are quite useless."
"Advanced Infrastructure should be implemented in the next release for better orchestration."
"There are numerous outdated exploits in their database that should be updated."
"Rapid7 Metasploit can add a GUI feature because it is only available online."
"We'd like them to offer better coverage of malware."
"If your company's patch is not up to date, but you have other detection or defense solutions such as endpoint detection and response and antivirus software, the product exploit may not work effectively. This is because its exploit database update process is slow and not real-time. For zero-day vulnerabilities or new security threats, relying on Rapid7 Metasploit alone may not be effective."
"The open-source version has reporting limitations. You need to develop these capabilities yourself. Built-in reporting is an excellent feature for penetration testing, but it isn't a must-have. The solution could also cover more vulnerabilities. Metasploit has around 10,000 exploits in its library, but more is always better."
"At the time I was using it, the graphical user interface needed some improvements."
"I think areas with shortcomings that need improvement are more integration and automation."
