Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7 and others in Risk-Based Vulnerability Management."Rapid7 have a good distribution network with good support and market presence."
"This solution is much more user-friendly than past solutions I have used."
"The solution is good because it has a lot of options."
"We can create our own templates."
"It's very scalable."
"InsightVM's best features are the vulnerability database and remediation steps."
"Using Rapid7, we can install a scan engine, we can do our VPN connections, and we can conduct internal scans of remote sites. We prefer the web application. It's smarter and more accurate from an application perspective."
"This solution is very easy to use and easy to install."
"The solution is stable with 12 years of established historical data."
"Reporting could be expanded."
"The solution needs to improve its vulnerability design to include CVC results."
"The reporting is very bad when you compare it with other vulnerability assessment tools."
"In terms of improvements, its price could be better. Our main issue with Rapid7 is that it is too expensive. You can only sell it to enterprise accounts. In terms of new features, Rapid7 came up with a product called InsightIDR a couple of years ago, which is a good SIEM solution. We expect that Rapid7 will work on some sort of integration between InsightVM and InsightIDR, where vulnerability or anomaly detected by InsightVM can be reported in InsightIDR in some sort of real-time. Rapid7 doesn't patch. For example, if you have a vulnerability, some products can scan and also do the patching, but Rapid7 does not do the patching. It would be nice if it can also patch."
"One area I would like to improve in InsightVM is its integration with other solutions."
"The integration with other solutions like JIRA could be better. Perhaps there could be some additional updates in the next phase that could integrate with it, so then you can proceed with the VT much easier."
"The drawback is that it is still not a fully SaaS solution, so you must deploy a console."
"A definite improvement would be to make it easier to run ad-hoc scans without needing to assign the asset to a site or group."
"A low-cost service to evaluate the risk score of a supply chain would be very helpful."
