Real-time responses and reporting streamline vulnerability management
Qualys VMDR provides a real-time response and reporting feature, which is excellent. It allows us to see real-time graphs and reports for every asset, server, and more, which is very user-friendly. Our clients have given good feedback, and they are satisfied with the tool. We use it daily to fix vulnerabilities by connecting with infrastructure to remediate. The feedback from the client side is very good.

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"There is a license for the use of this solution. We pay annually instead of monthly to receive a better discount on the price."
"The solution is reasonably priced for the value it provides."
"An annual license for a single scanner costs around $3,000."
"Qualys is a pay-as-you-go model, so there's flexibility to the pricing."
"The product is more expensive than that of any other vendor."
"There are no additional fees in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"It is different for every company, but for us, it's every three years."
"I used to work there, so I never paid for the product. As an employee, we get a lifetime license for personal use, and that's what I'm using. It is a comprehensive platform, so there is a lot more to it. There could be other solutions that are probably a little bit cheaper, but it depends on what people need. Different people have different needs. It offers many things on the same platform. If you add all the things up, it should be cheaper, but I have not done any analysis specifically."
