What do you like best about the product?
I really like the way it look for vulnerabilities into the iT environment and helps for the need of quick vulnerability assessment in the different devices and assets.
What do you dislike about the product?
It have no good integration with iot assets, and sometimes it gives a lot of information about vulnerabilities not explotables, so there is not useful information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves the need for running manual scans and test between the different IT assets during vulnerability assessment and penetration testing, and we only focus in results given by Nessus.
