Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Wiz, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Vulnerability Management."The reporting features are good and there are many built-in reports that can be quickly configured."
"The most valuable feature is that it provides a simple English recommendation on actions that you need to take once a vulnerability is discovered."
"It helped with some of the regulatory requirements. It also helped with some of the security analytics and analysis. It was worthwhile from that perspective."
"The Vulnerability Management and Patch Management features are the most valuable features of this solution."
"Qualys VM's best features are vulnerability management and customizable scoring."
"There are fewer false positives when using this solution."
"Qualys VM's best feature is vulnerability management."
"The integrations for this solution are very good. I use a different product for virtual patching of vulnerabilities and Qualys integrates well with that product."
"Provides great functionality."
"I find the most valuable features are the continuous monitoring. Even on premises, there is constant monitoring."
"It is a simple solution that makes scanning easy. You just give it a scheduled task, and it will do everything for you."
"The interface could be improved by having sub-groups of tests, ultimately making the process of collecting tests faster."
"Building policies is not that easy. There are some things that are turned off by default, for example, displaying values."
"It was not as easy to use. The user-friendliness of it was somewhat lower than what I was expecting. It was also lacking in terms of the ease of the setup. There should be an automatic agent for deployment."
"The reporting and the GUI need improvements."
"It is more expensive vs. other products on the market."
"I would like to see this solution simplified to work more easily in a multi-cloud environment."
"We are moving away from Qualys to Defender ATP because I find that Defender ATP is much better at prioritizing the vulnerabilities that I should be looking at."
"There needs to be better documentation."
"Qualys should improve their customer experience. They need to improve the tech support experience and the turnaround time."
"Improve the user interface."
"Its integration with ServiceNow and other similar products is complicated and can be improved. It should also have virtual batching. They should support more standards and compliance requirements and more customizations. For policy compliance, they can add the standards required by the countries in the Middle East. Each country generates its own standards and frameworks, and those frameworks should be there in all products, not only in Qualys. The market here is huge, especially in the cybersecurity field. Qatar has a framework for Qatar 2022, and each and every company in the public or private sector has to follow the Qatar 2022 framework."
