"I find the solution's dashboard interesting...The response time is fine. You can pull up reports without dragging or consuming bandwidth."
"Intuitive and easy to use."
"It is quite easy to implement."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is the external channel."
"The solution has a lean and easy-to-use interface that is not confusing to first-time users."
"The tool provides us insight into the happens of the network and its hosts. It provides me with a list of hosts."
"Tenable.sc is user-friendly."
"The solution is one of the most, if not the most, stable product available."
"The most valuable features of Tenable SC are scanning, reporting, dashboards, and automation."
"This product has the best results in terms of the lowest number of false-positives and false-negatives."
"Tenable.sc's best features are the availability model, accident management, and scoring."
"We use Tenable to scan all of our environments and plugins for vulnerabilities. Tenable helps us discover network vulnerabilities to threats and piracy."
"The ability to manage user accounts and give rights to the operator to know about abnormalities of applications is something that needs improvement."
"This solution could be improved by extending the agent capabilities to different operating systems including Mac and Linux. We would also like the capability to easily check for vulnerability in assets in the IOTs."
"It is more expensive vs. other products on the market."
"Qualys Container Security can improve the interface. It could be easier to navigate and be enriched."
"Finding things in management can be quite difficult."
"The customer support is very bad."
"Make some minimal dashboard improvements."
"Qualys VM's machine learning and artificial intelligence features could be improved."
"Tenable's reporting engine needs improvement. It needs to be more efficient and add more features."
"Its reporting can be improved. It is not easy to generate a scan report the way we want. The data is okay, but we can't easily change the template to make it look the way we want."
"A good plugin editor would be a good additional option for the Security Center."
"The integration is very good, although it still needs to improve."
"There is not much room for improvement. However, there should be a guide that describes the step-by-step procedures for doing tasks. Otherwise, training is required from a senior guy to a junior guy."
"The reporting needs a lot of work on the template."
"Additional costs are associated with using the solution, as additional scanners are required for different endpoints connected to the Tenable Security Center. If Tenable Security Center could extract information from these scanners automatically rather than manually, it would enhance user-friendliness for customers."
"The solution is expensive."
