Find out in this report how the two Vulnerability Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I think that compliance checks and policy compliance are the product's good features."
"I am impressed with the tool's change management, firewall and network assurance."
"It shows me a client's or an organization's entire network. I can see everything."
"Aside from Firewall Assurance, we are using Network Assurance and Change Manager for an overview of the whole network and for documenting requests and the recertification of the ruleset."
"The solution's most valuable and unique assets are the vulnerability management and change management solutions because they identify mistakes in the network before implementation which reduces risks."
"The most valuable features are Firewall Assurance and Vulnerability Control."
"The most valuable features are the rule compliance and the OS vulnerability checks."
"It has a good policy management feature and can provide customers with good quality outputs."
"Feature-wise, Tenable Security Center is a very fast tool with many dashboards and reports, and it covers all our systems."
"The Auto-Remediate feature is good."
"The predictive prioritization features are pretty good. They do a lot of research and we trust the research that they do internally. They have knowledge of what's going on with many companies, where we only get a view into what's going on here. So the ability to get best practices out of them as part of this solution, is valuable to us."
"Tenable.sc is user-friendly."
"The product is our second solution, and we are happy that it meets our requirements."
"I found the dashboard features very useful. It made it easy to track remediation progress. I could publish dashboards to remediation teams and track the progress on the dashboards."
"The solution is one of the most, if not the most, stable product available."
"The solution has a lean and easy-to-use interface that is not confusing to first-time users."
"Modifications and the deletion of existing policies are currently unavailable."
"During implementation, we realised approximately 30 devices were not supported by the Skybox platform."
"The primary room for improvement would be to enable a web interface, which is not something which is there in the product. This is supposed to have come a year, a year and a half ago, but still has failed to come out. It still needs a client application to be installed on a workstation to be able to access that server and then run these reports. So I cannot extend that access to anybody. It has to be one administrator all the time. So unlike a web interface, where you can give multiple users simultaneous access and generate the various reports, that isn't a possibility at the moment."
"Change Manager can be improved. If they can improve Change Manager so that whatever we want to do on a firewall, we are able to do it through Change Manager, it will be helpful for us. Whenever we are doing a change, it only does them at an L3 and L4 level, but all the firewalls are at the application layer. So, whatever needs to be done on the firewall, we aren't able to get it done through Change Manager. Currently, this functionality is not there because of which we are sometimes losing customers. I can create a role on Layer 3, Layer 4, but when it comes to the application layer, such as configuring and defining URLs or other things at the application level, it can't be done through Change Manager. Customers demand that they should be able to do everything through Change Manager. They don't want to do it through some other mechanism to accomplish their complete change management policy. They don't want to use a firewall manager because sometimes, they don't have any manager. They ask if they can use our solution so that a manager is not required. If Change Manager can do all the management automatically without involving any other manager, it will be great. They can also provide better integration with other managers so that everything can be done through a central point."
"Skybox should improve their UX features by making them easier to use."
"There is room for improvement in pricing. It would be better, especially if a customer bought all four modules."
"The tool does not offer options for customization."
"The Network Assurance, which helps to create the network model, is not so rich."
"We experienced some difficulties with the solution’s support."
"The solution's user interface has some issues."
"The solution needs to improve the vulnerability assessment because we have experienced some challenges with accuracy."
"The product could be user-friendly, and they could enhance the web application's security features."
"The tool's initial configuration is not so easy."
"The solution should include compliance-based scanning."
"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 side can be improved. The dashboards are nice, but exporting things out for reports for management was a little tough."
