We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Tripwire IP360 is a very stable solution.""It's become the pinnacle point for anything that enters the network or anything that's passing through to production to first be affected by IP360, hardened, and up to standard. For our integrity management, one was deployed in the bank about two years ago and that's still going to expand the usage and the product itself. That will go hand in hand with training and expanding the product as for where it's deployed.""We could manage our entire IP range with the solution."

"Tenable's most valuable features are the credential scan, vulnerability reports, and vulnerability ratings (VPR).""Tenable SC is good for reporting and alerting. The filtering feature is also very valuable. Its integration with multiple vendors is quite good. It can be integrated with SIEM solutions and PAM solutions such as Thycotic, which is very helpful.""Tenable SC's most valuable features are the low number of false positives and the strong capability of providing prioritization for the vulnerabilities detected.""I find Tenable SC to be a very scalable product.""The product is our second solution, and we are happy that it meets our requirements.""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.""The most valuable features of Tenable SC are the reports and the dashboards.""We really love the Security Center dashboard. It basically performs vulnerability scanning and then outputs a vulnerability data."

Cons
"I am not very impressed by the technical support.""We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running.""The reporting functions can use improvement. There is room for growth because reporting functions differ a lot depending on what you're going to output. It depends on whether it's for technical or senior management and how it's interpreted. There could be growth within the reporting functionality side."

"The user interface can be improved.""For downloading reports, we have to go to the scan and then we have to go to the reports and download the Excel or CSV or PDF. I think these menus and clicks can be minimized.""Tenable SC can improve by making it easier to create complicated reports and have more effectiveness in the remediation area for comparison between the scans.""Security can always be improved.""Certain aspects require manual effort, such as exporting and analyzing data for our dashboards. The built-in components of the Tenable solution are somewhat clumsy that require external tools. So, this is an area of improvement.""The solution is expensive.""If I want to have a very low-managed scan policy, it's a lot of work to create something which is very basic. If I use a tool like Nmap, all I have to do is download it, install it, type in the command, and it's good to go. In Security Center, I have to go through a lot of work to create a policy that's very basic.""The web application is not very functional."
