We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The Auto-Remediate feature is good.""Tenable SC's most valuable features are the low number of false positives and the strong capability of providing prioritization for the vulnerabilities detected.""This solution has a much lower rate of false positives compared to competing products.""The usability is really good. It's very easy to use and a good platform. It is scalable and very stable. The technical support is fine and the setup is super easy.""The most valuable feature of the product is the Assurance Report Card, which gives us an overview of the security poster in just a simple glance.""Tenable's most valuable features are the credential scan, vulnerability reports, and vulnerability ratings (VPR).""The initial setup process is simple.""Tenable.sc's best features are the availability model, accident management, and scoring."

"The platform's most valuable feature is attack simulation.""What I personally like very much, from my experience, is that it is very reliable."

More XM Cyber Pros →

Cons
"There's a lot of information being streamed out of the reports. What would be nice, and maybe we just haven't found it, would be more of an executive-type view. We still expect it to collect all this information, but we would like a feature that would allow us to show it to an executive or a director or someone like that and give them some type of high-level overview but not get into the nitty-gritty.""I will say it's a lot slower compared to an MS scan. It takes so much longer, so the performance could definitely be worked on.""The GUI could be improved to have all concerns and priorities use the same GUI, allowing them to see all tickets, assign vulnerabilities, and assign variation failures to each member of their team.""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 could be improved with additional connectivity to external company postures and the capability of managing and sustaining agents in the systems directly without additional platforms in the middle.""We experienced some difficulties with the solution’s support.""The product could be user-friendly, and they could enhance the web application's security features.""We are facing some challenges related to our channel."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is slightly more expensive than other solutions in the same sphere."
  • "We're able to save because we don't have to employ more staff members to help wit ht he scheduling of the scans, running the reports or sending them out to the systems owners. That alone is a big ROI for us."
  • "The licensing costs for this solution are approximately $100,000 US, and I think that covers everything."
  • "The pricing is more than Nexpose."
  • "Costing is pretty reasonable compared to the competition."
  • "We're a Fortune 500 company... our licensing costs [are] in the seven figures."
  • "We pay around 60,000 on a yearly basis."
  • "The price can start at €10,000 ($13,000 USD) for between 500 and 1,000 assets, and the price can climb into the millions as more assets are added."

Our attack path management platform continuously uncovers hidden attack paths to your critical assets across cloud and on-prem environments, so you can cut them off at key junctures and eradicate risk with a fraction of the effort. This overcomes the big disconnect that security teams experience when they’re presented with endless alerts, yet can’t see which exposures impact risk the most, how they come together to be exploited by an attacker, or how to efficiently eliminate them. This approach is a complete game-changer, which is why some of the world’s largest, most complex organizations choose XM Cyber to help eradicate risk. Founded by top executives from the Israeli cyber intelligence community, XM Cyber has offices in North America, Europe, and Israel.
