Pros
"Takes reports from other vulnerabilities."

More BMC TrueSight Vulnerability Management Pros →

"It is a stable solution.""The solution is easy to use.""Monitors workstations and servers for vulnerabilities and creates reports.""The most valuable feature is the ability to run different capabilities with the same agent. With only one agent, we can have EDR, vulnerability management, compliance and some basic SaaS security capabilities.""I am impressed with the VMDR feature.""Intuitive and easy to use.""It is a simple solution that makes scanning easy. You just give it a scheduled task, and it will do everything for you.""The Vulnerability Management and Patch Management features are the most valuable features of this solution."

Cons
"No third-party applications or integrations with additional software solutions."

More BMC TrueSight Vulnerability Management Cons →

"They have integrated with other third parties, but it is still not viable.""Qualys should improve their customer experience. They need to improve the tech support experience and the turnaround time.""It's quite complex on the way it is set up, so it takes a fair bit of time in order to get your head around it in order to deploy it. Once you've deployed it, then you're never confident on the versions of the browsers and the SSL certificates, etc. You have to always go back into Qualys and check.""Sometimes we face a problem with accessing the tool and not getting an expected result. From a technology point of view, they need to look into this.""The price could be better. Asset view is still a legacy feature. I'm not able to extract the information about the asset with complete details. It would be better if they fixed that in the next release. I know Qualys is already working on it, so I'm hopeful it will be available in the next five or six months. That would be something that's changed where I seek improvement.""Could use additional security for the app.""The reporting in this solution can be improved.""Qualys Container Security can improve the interface. It could be easier to navigate and be enriched."
