Find out in this report how the two Risk-Based Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the vulnerability scan."
"Rapid7 have a good distribution network with good support and market presence."
"You can bring in and get online to do reports fairly quickly,"
"I liked the dashboard on it. I could customize my dashboard with different widgets and different heat maps."
"I really love the new platform. It is really easy to understand, use, and deploy."
"The remediation project is a pretty effective because it allows us, as clients or countries, to choose specific assets and set limitations on them for a certain period which allows us to track and follow up on those limitations. However, when it comes to real-time monitoring and live dashboards, InsightVM doesn't quite fit the bill. It's not a real-time solution and is not instant."
"It is good and fits well with pretty much all of our use case needs."
"The product is scalable."
"The scans are the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"I find Tenable SC to be a very scalable product."
"What is useful to me is being able to fulfill very customized scanning policies. In the clinical environment, because of vendor control, we can't perform credential-vulnerability scanning. And network scans, which I've done before, can cause a lot of impact. Being able to create very customized policies to be able to routinely scan and audit our clinical networks, while simultaneously not causing impact, is important to us."
"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's dashboard and reporting capabilities match our company's needs since we are able to modify the basic view to create a new dashboard, and it works out very well for our needs."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the vulnerability assessment."
"Tenable's most valuable features are the credential scan, vulnerability reports, and vulnerability ratings (VPR)."
"The initial setup process is simple."
"The reporting is very bad when you compare it with other vulnerability assessment tools."
"Within InsightVM, there is no feature to assign a ticket. If we can have more API calls, we can do that from InsightVM."
"Technical support does not respond quickly."
"It would be great to have a mobile application client. Currently, you have to use a mobile web browser on a device, but it is not similar to the desktop web browser in terms of user experience. It would be nice to have a mobile application to access the platform."
"Their customer support should be improved, and the effectiveness of scans also needs to be improved."
"The solution could improve by being more secure."
"Reporting could be expanded."
"Rapid7 could be easier to manage."
"Deploying Tenable.sc is highly complex because it's an on-prem solution, whereas Tenable.io is cloud-based, so you can go live as soon as you log in. Tenable.sc involves significant integration with other on-prem solutions, and the deployment takes about two to three weeks with the help of a system integrator"
"It's good at creating information, it's good creating dashboards, it's good at creating reports, but if you want to take that reporting metadata and put it into another tool, that is a little bit lacking."
"The reporting needs a lot of work on the template."
"Support could be faster."
"The web application is not very functional."
"Tenable SC could improve by making the creation of the initial reports easier that correspond to our network."
"The solution needs to improve the vulnerability assessment because we have experienced some challenges with accuracy."
"The solution is expensive."
