Good features for infrastructure application; lacking in integrations with other software
We deal with server automation and end-point automation. Right now we're working with a very big client. We're partners with BMC and I'm an Information Security GRC Senior Consultant.  The solution is valuable because it takes reports from other vulnerabilities - scanners like Nessus, Rapid7 and…

Great Predictive Prioritization and Risk-based VM with good reliability
In Tenable SecurityCenter, the Risk-based approach for Prioritizing vulnerability is something that is unique to any vulnerability management platform. Compared to Qualys and Rapid7, Tenable VPR is a special thing that those products don't have. The security over the CVSS and V1 and V2 with the VPR feature help an organization reveal the exact risk of any asset. There might be thousands of vulnerabilities, however, the most impactful vulnerabilities are listed and prioritized in the VPR. As tenable SecurityCenter is powered by popular Nessus technology, It is really easy to set up. The solution is stable and considered as the most solid vulnerability management platform in the industry. Tenable.sc provides a wide range of dashboards which makes it easy to grasp the vulnerability profile of the organization. These dashboards allow us to view vulnerabilities in different categories in a simple to understand format. The upgrade to Tenable.sc+ has improved on this as well. Regularity of plugin updates are also exceptional. The speed at which tenable has pushed plugin updates and overall platform updates is great. Also the automatic update capability makes maintenance very simplified. Easy to use User interface. For someone who is not familiar with Tenable.sc, the interface is not difficult to follow along and the documentation makes it very simple for anyone The solution has a very nice Asset discovery feature that gives you gives you unified visibility of your entire attack surface, As It leverages Nessus Sensors, a mix of active scanners, agents, passive network monitoring, and CMDB integrations to maximize scan coverage across your infrastructure to reduce vulnerability blind spots. This mix of data sensor types helps you track and assess both known and unknown assets and their vulnerabilities

Cons

"No third-party applications or integrations with additional software solutions."
"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."
"Support could be faster."
"The solution should include compliance-based scanning."
"We are facing some challenges related to our channel."
"The solution is expensive."
"The product could be user-friendly, and they could enhance the web application's security features."
"Tenable's reporting engine needs improvement. It needs to be more efficient and add more features."
"Certain aspects require manual effort, such as exporting and analyzing data for our dashboards. The built-in components of the Tenable solution are somewhat clumsy that require external tools. So, this is an area of improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"It is a bit expensive. Everything is included in the license."
"It is slightly more expensive than other solutions in the same sphere."
"I rate the solution's price as seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The tool is quite expensive."
"We pay around 60,000 on a yearly basis."
"The tool costs around 15,000 Saudi riyals monthly."
"I use a local license to perform penetration testing and I'm pretty happy with everything when it comes to pricing and licensing."
