Pros
"Takes reports from other vulnerabilities."

More BMC TrueSight Vulnerability Management Pros →

"The most valuable feature is the connection of threat intelligence information with identified vulnerabilities, which means you can prioritize vulnerabilities according to actual attacks.""The solution shows us classic categories, including high, medium, and low risks. It also shows critical items, and that gives us the advantage of prioritizing things.""Qualys VM had a recent upgrade and the newer version is supporting the cloud.""Qualys VM has allowed us to know the vulnerabilities we need to prioritize based on the threat levels and the possible impact if there's an intrusion.""Monitors workstations and servers for vulnerabilities and creates reports.""Performs automated, regular scans in the network.""Provides great functionality.""Qualys VM's best features are vulnerability management and customizable scoring."

Cons
"No third-party applications or integrations with additional software solutions."

More BMC TrueSight Vulnerability Management Cons →

"The reporting and dashboards could improve in Qualys VM. However, they have improved since the previous versions.""They should make it accessible for more operating systems.""Make some minimal dashboard improvements.""I do not like that all of the data is stored on the cloud.""The reporting needs improvement. It should generate much more stuff like field reports.""Qualys VM could improve by having more skilled support personnel.""Some of the older features could be polished instead of focusing on releasing new features.""The price could be better. Asset view is still a legacy feature. I'm not able to extract the information about the asset with complete details. It would be better if they fixed that in the next release. I know Qualys is already working on it, so I'm hopeful it will be available in the next five or six months. That would be something that's changed where I seek improvement."
