Qualys VMDR Stability

Harold Jensen - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Cybersecurity Engineer at 3M Health Information Systems

Stability is not the issue. However, the reliably of the different modules is a concern. I have never seen all of Qualys go down.

The stability of the tool is okay. Most of the time, you need to do the updates online to be able to get off from any vulnerability. As long as you are online since it's on the cloud, it's just as software of which the update has been handled on the cloud as well.

The response time is fine. You can pull up reports without dragging or consuming bandwidth.

The solution is stable. The passive scanning capabilities are advanced. I'm able to see all the missing paths and many vulnerabilities or many configuration mistakes at the same time. Due to its passive scanning, we don't see any stress or research consumption from agents.

Network scans are a bit more intense and they of course require research and can create some noise, however, for the most part, it is okay. There is no reliability issue from our perspective.

The solution can sometimes be buggy.

The agent itself is stable. The reporting platform seems to go through quite a bit of change that they're trying to make it more robust and developing more things, and so we'll make customizations, and they make it update, and the customizations wipe out. I wouldn't say the reporting platform is super stable at the moment. However, it more than meets our needs far beyond what we had with Nessus Professional. The ability to monitor has been stable.

PK
Senior Security Consultant at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees

It's reasonably steady. When we say stable version, there is also room for improvement in that Qualys will not be able to handle large amounts of data at once. When you do billions of scans, such as a scan for millions of devices, it becomes extremely slow, and gathering data and populating the report becomes extremely tedious.

The stability is generally good, but we did face issues during the pandemic due to connectivity problems with Qualys VMDR servers. There were syncing issues, and agents weren't getting updated. However, we later realized it was our issue because our software needed updating. We had to manually update the proxy settings, which Qualys VMDR should have done. We managed to tackle the challenge with the help of another team.

Our Qualys box is hardware and it's very easy to set up and maintain. It's very little maintenance, and the most time consuming part is setting up everything initially, such as what subnets you want to scan, what reports you want to run, etc.
