"Quick assessments, compliance scores, and results are provided without having to do agents."
"The stability is very good."
"Tenable Nessus has a good performance, is very user-friendly, and is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the breadth of vulnerabilities that it finds. It's able to find across a lot of different platforms and operating systems. It's also able to combine local testing with network-based testing."
"User friendly and good dashboards."
"The reports must be more specific to help us understand what we should do to mitigate the problem."
"They should improve the I/O reporting and the customized spreadsheet export feature."
"They could make their reporting a little better."
"Tenable Nessus is not feasible for a large company."
"One area with room for improvement is instead of there just being a PDF format for output, I'd like the option of an Excel spreadsheet, whereby I could better track remediation efforts and provide reporting off of that."
"Pricing is one of the most important features, and it is something that they can improve on."
"Tenable Nessus could improve the reporting by adding some dashboards. The reports are a hassle at this time. Tenable.io has more detailed reports. Having a better dashboard that can show where the vulnerabilities are and be categorized would be helpful. We then could present them to upper management for a deep overview of our network posture which they do not see."
"Consumes more system resources when it's running."
"I would like to have a management option after the network scanning."
