Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7 and others in Risk-Based Vulnerability Management."Qualys VM's best features are vulnerability management and customizable scoring."
"The initial setup was good. We didn't have any problems with it."
"The prioritization feature is great. I think it has all of the advanced features that we need."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"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."
"Great web application security for scanning."
"The process of defining and discovering scans is organized efficiently."
"It's a good product. After the scan our internet works well. It scans our security posture."
"Skyhigh has given us categorization and rating of websites separate from what the web proxy places on the logs."
"Improves creation of security alerts on web proxy logs by having a separate system interpret said logs."
"What's most valuable in Skyhigh Security is its level of security. Another valuable feature of the solution is threat analysis."
"The management is very good."
"User analytics."
"Skyhigh performs well, and we can choose from virtual and hardware plans. We can deploy the ISO on as many virtual machines as possible and easily set up high availability on the web proxy. The location doesn't matter. The user at a site will always access the web proxy for that location. It's suitable for an organization distributed across multiple regions."
"Good anti-virus filtering, URL categorization, and reporting capabilities."
"The stability is the most valuable feature. We haven't had any issues with the product."
"This solution could be improved by extending the agent capabilities to different operating systems including Mac and Linux. We would also like the capability to easily check for vulnerability in assets in the IOTs."
"Certain integration factors between different options could be improved."
"If anything, I would like to see the user interface modernized a bit more."
"The customer support is very bad."
"The reporting in this solution can be improved."
"It's quite complex on the way it is set up, so it takes a fair bit of time in order to get your head around it in order to deploy it. Once you've deployed it, then you're never confident on the versions of the browsers and the SSL certificates, etc. You have to always go back into Qualys and check."
"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."
"Qualys does have an on-prem solution, but it is very expensive."
"An area for improvement in Skyhigh Security is its UI. It needs to be enhanced and made more user-friendly. Right now, the UI of Skyhigh Security is sometimes confusing. For example, my company is deploying Skyhigh Security for a client and integrating it on the cloud, from an on-premises deployment to a hybrid deployment. Though the experience isn't bad, there needs to be more enhancements. Another room for improvement in Skyhigh Security is the limited training resources, especially when you compare it with Cisco, which has many study materials in the market, even free training resources. You'll get limited resources if you search for Skyhigh Security tutorials on Google and YouTube. Because of high-security requirements and the training material for Skyhigh Security not being available, most engineers and architects avoid the product because there'd be a lack of knowledge in configuring and achieving the goals you'd want to reach via the use of Skyhigh Security. The NOC team deploying the product is having difficulty getting training resources for Skyhigh Security. You'll be charged an enormous amount if you search the market for training because of the limited resources available. Skyhigh Security needs to work on marketing and awareness as an improvement to the product."
"The cloud needs improvement with respect to DLP."
"User interface could be more intuitive."
"It is an expensive solution."
"There isn't really any aspect that is lacking."
"The only thing we have faced is that sometimes, randomly, the portal becomes too slow."
"They only have English support, so I would like for them to add some Spanish support."
"Iron out the few bugs that I've seen."
