We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It helped with some of the regulatory requirements. It also helped with some of the security analytics and analysis. It was worthwhile from that perspective.""The most valuable feature is that it provides a simple English recommendation on actions that you need to take once a vulnerability is discovered.""The reporting features are good and there are many built-in reports that can be quickly configured."

They respond quite quickly.""The initial setup is very straightforward.""The ease of use in terms of scanning assets is valuable.""It is a very, very user-friendly tool...The setup is easy"

Cons
"Building policies is not that easy. There are some things that are turned off by default, for example, displaying values.""The interface could be improved by having sub-groups of tests, ultimately making the process of collecting tests faster.""It was not as easy to use. The user-friendliness of it was somewhat lower than what I was expecting. It was also lacking in terms of the ease of the setup. There should be an automatic agent for deployment."

"Another area of improvement is customer service and support. Tenable needs to include support in the pricing/license. Currently, they push clients to get support from partners or channel distributors, who often charge a lot.""I would like the solution to cover the whole cycle of mitigation since it's an area where the solution currently lacks.""The solution’s pricing could be improved.""I'd like to see them improve their support.""The pricing of the solution could be more reasonable.""We'd like to see a bit more user-friendliness.""The user interface could be improved by being able to change the user interface to fit your position or your job. The graphs are set in stone and you can only print reports.""The interface could be improved; right now it's running on two interfaces simultaneously."
