Tenable SC is the most important and usefull for the organization when we want to find vuln
What do you like best about the product?
Dashboards, easy configure, executive reports, the easy way to create the dashboards and the scans, to discover new or host that we forgot we have there, everithing we can see on the network with the configuration rigth and the proccess to mitigate patches around the months, divide the types of critical and productive servers
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe one of the most important and not to dislike at all but the price is very expensive for a organization that maybe is not largeor with the sufficient money to buy it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are looking for vulnerabilty scanner and found a great one with dashboards and reports for everyone in a few minutes, for the executive or for the analyst, everything is there, mitigation summary and technical support reports, all is there. If we need somenting for the chief officer or the director we use this tools to do the graphics
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's very comfortable to use
Its really effective product and also very much easy to handle.
What do you like best about the product?
Implementation and integration is the best part of this product.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that much LCE (Log Correlation Engine) module.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Of course Vulnerabilities of the assets. But also other than this auto-discovery of the new devices in the network is also an effective one.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make the implementation properly at the time of deploy. And then make it mature gradually so that, this solution will give you ROI at the right time.
Enterprise oversight and monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
Centralize and monitor all of your assets in one pane of glass. Have oversight over all types of assets using Nessus Scanners to have a non-client based visual into your environment. The wealth of pre-configured dashboards allows professionals to quickly deploy new metrics without the task of searching for the right plugin to match their criteria.
What do you dislike about the product?
Plugin customization. It isnt the easiest task to create your own signature in order to search for unique areas of your environment or keep track of unique software using the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Compliance with DoD and USG policies to include continuous monitoring, STIGs, and IAVM patching. We use this product to do software inventory and baseline management as well.

Comprehensive Vulnerability Scanning
What do you like best about the product?
I like the expanded featureset that Tenable.sc offers and how different scanners in different sites and networks can all be integrated and analyzed in one main console. It has a wealth of information that is all able to be organized into a clean and customizable tailored report for whatever you are looking for with remediation suggestions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the complications of linking a repository to a scan and incorporating different benchmarks into those scans. There are way too many areas that need configuring and settings applied which seem redundant. I think it would be helpful to have a bit more consolidation of functionality and more available functionality out of the box or integrated directly into the application. Their wiki and documentation needs improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Identifying vulnerabilities in our environment. The benefit of proactively patching and how areas needing improvement can easily be identified and categorized.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Plan your future target environment ahead of time.
Nessus worth the investment
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use and schedules allow you to set it up and forget about running scans. The scans run themselves and the data keeps fresh
What do you dislike about the product?
Not sure on this one. I guess it could always be less expensive. It's kind of a rinse, recycle process, because you're just getting feedback on what you tell it to. I'd image something with more independence or intelligence is going to certainly cost more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm able to scan our internal networks and understand what issues need addressing - right now or in the near future. It keeps me on my toes.
Tenable/Nessus Vuln Scanner
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, you can be up and running in just a few minutes. Easy to automate scheduled scans and reporting. Executive summaries are great for showing progress to the less technically inclined while still containing enough relevant detail to make them useful to the technical side as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overly verbose or not applicable vulns are displayed fairly often, requiring additional research to see if things are applicable. Can be a bit convoluted when attempting to omit certain plugins or checks. A more simplified scan interface would be nice. Would also like to see an internal database of targets/hosts to run individual adhoc scans without having to setup full scans.
Automated reporting can easily fill up a drive if left unattended, be sure to put some sort of cleanup or archiving system in place.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to satisfy compliance requirements, and harden systems. Cheaper in the long run to purchase a license and run internal scans to clear up vulnerabilities while using a third party for those quarterly/annual scans for the compliance side of things.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Creating both an external scanner and an internal one is easy to setup and get rolling, ensure you are taking into consideration the fragility of your systems before scanning though, since we did have some services become unresponsive during and after the scans.
This has been my favorite scanning utility.It is also available as a preconfigured VM, an Amazon EC2 appliance, a preconfigured hardware appliance or a cloud service. Tenable has a wide variety of plugins which gives Nessus the ability to interface with basically any networked device. In addition, Nessus can be easily integrated with most major patch management systems, which gives administrators the ability to verify that updates are installing as they should be. Nessus can also be deployed with endpoint agents, which allow vulnerability scanning to occur offline and scan results can be collected after. This is valuable for mobile workforces where assets may not always be connected to the corporate network. The endpoint agents also allow Nessus to perform malware scanning. If a zero-day has been identified within the organization, Nessus can be used to quickly check for other machines that have been infected organization-wide.
