Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7 and others in Risk-Based Vulnerability Management."We also like the flexibility in their licensing."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Qualys Container Security is the detailed information in the reports and the remediation. This is done to make sure there are no vulnerabilities."
"Qualys has a continuous endpoint monitoring feature for agent-based scanning. Once you deploy the solution, it monitors everything that is happening every 30 minutes. Then, if there are any vulnerabilities, they are reported."
"The most valuable feature is the certificate management."
"The most recent is VMDR, which provides a comprehensive overview of how to detect, patch, and remediate specific vulnerabilities."
"I find Qualys VM very robust, and it's very useful for vulnerability management and patch management. The value that it brings to my environment is economies of scale. There is no limitation on adding any endpoints. You go by the rule, and it's added once another endpoint is added to our environment. It's automatically installed, and it's less work from our end. It frees up my license automatically if I don't need an endpoint or if my machine is decommissioned. I like the dashboard displays because I don't see any duplication. The most important part is vulnerability management and prioritization. Unlike Symantec, it shows the kind of vulnerability I would want to patch first. It provides a holistic view of the kind of vulnerabilities and the ones I should remediate first. I don't have to do a scan; it just brings up those critical kinds of vulnerabilities like zero-day vulnerabilities and tells me to prioritize them. You have to prioritize these vulnerabilities first and go on with the rest. The dashboard shows me the ones that have been fixed, so I don't have to complete an aging report. The user experience and the graphical interface are good. As it's user-friendly and understandable on an executive level, it brings real value. We also use this solution because it's robust and flexibile."
"Great web application security for scanning."
"Easy to scale, stable solution for workload and server security and protection. It's easy to set up and has a good ransomware protection feature."
"Virtual patching is a wonderful feature where we do a recommendation scan and an internal assessment on the server, and it updates the IPS signatures to block any attack. I have seen instances where it has prevented attacks on the end-of-support servers such as 2018 R2, and many years ago, even 2007 servers that were end-of-support. It certainly helped there."
"Aside from the basic antivirus features, there are additional features such as vulnerability protection, firewall, etc. which are helpful."
"Their support is good. They are responsive, which is nice."
"It helps with virtual patching and IDS fetching."
"It can scale well."
"It provides the type of data and availability that we need to have. We don't have to worry about intrusions."
"It provides security and protection. The endpoint firewall is valuable."
"I would like to have CSPM, a continuous scan-like cloud added to the solution."
"It is more expensive vs. other products on the market."
"The IoT scan is not great."
"Qualys could be improved in its overall performance compared to other vulnerability management or scanning tools."
"Improve the user interface."
"Endpoint stability and fault resolution could be improved."
"It's not very user-friendly at times and requires in-depth understanding. So, a layman or someone new to Qualys won't be able to easily understand it. You need education to use the solution."
"They should make it accessible for more operating systems."
"The licensing structure could improve."
"We'd like to see extended capacity in the on-premises versions."
"If I had more reporting, the product would be an A plus."
"Some of the reporting and integrations could be more robust."
"I would like to see better pricing. The pricing could be lower."
"The cost is very high."
"The risk is very complex. We need our tools to be more intelligent, more automated, more detectable."
"The product isn't very user-friendly."
