The initial setup can be difficult. I have set up two major systems: Tenable.io Vulnerability Management from the beginning to the advanced level, and the same is true for Rapid7 Metasploit. It can be a bit challenging. We must understand the technical area, the range of IPs, our information assets, and what assets need to be aligned with the system.

I believe that the initial setup will only require a maximum of three or four days. However, maturing the system is dependent on the experience of our team.

Deploying Metasploit is straightforward and only took a few minutes. I'm using a pre-installed package that updates itself in a couple of minutes, but I don't think it takes much time to install it from scratch. Metasploit doesn't require maintenance after deployment.

It's a very simple setup. The process is not overly complex or difficult. I'd rate it two out of five in terms of how easy it is (with one being the easiest and five being the hardest).

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. We have been working with this product for several years and it isn't a problem for us to set it up. The deployment can be completed in a matter of hours, depending on the size of the environment.

If you want to install it separately on a fresh new Linux, the solution is still effective. The installation is very, very straightforward.

The initial setup isn't too complex. If you have a bit of a technical background, you should be fine installing the solution without facing any issues. A person with no technical background, however, may find it challenging.

The initial setup was easy and straightforward. 

There is also a manual setup available for installation, both for Windows and Linux. We just had to uninstall the antivirus and disable the firewall. This is not recommended.
