Find out what your peers are saying about Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7 and others in Risk-Based Vulnerability Management."Has great reporting features."
"The reports in Rapid7 InsightVM are useful when compared to competitors."
"I really love the new platform. It is really easy to understand, use, and deploy."
"We are very satisfied with the reports, as they provide us with the information that is required for our management."
"The most valuable feature is the vulnerability scan."
"This solution's most useful feature is that it is entirely a single-page application."
"The solution is automatically scheduled so it runs by itself."
"Rapid7 have a good distribution network with good support and market presence."
"Splunk's visualizations make it easy for users to understand the data."
"The solution has plenty of features that are good."
"Splunk would be my choice for the presentation layer because it comes with inbuilt reports and a dashboard that you can customize."
"The initial setup is really straightforward. It's one of the easiest installations."
"I like the ease with which dashboards can be created."
"It scales better in the cloud than on-premise."
"The correlation searches are most valuable just because we are able to do things like RBA."
"The ability to digest any information and then correlate it in accordance with what you need is valuable. The ability to connect to pretty much everything and bring the information in the same format is also valuable. On top of that, we can use their language in order to create and customize the dashboards, correlations, or analytics that we want to incorporate."
"Reporting could be expanded."
"The solution needs to improve its vulnerability design to include CVC results."
"We found that after you passed an endpoint, it didn't always reflect it in the next scan. I'm not sure if it was a glitch or some issue with the product's software. That was never clear. That was always an issue and something that definitely needed improvement."
"There are not enough templates, and the reporting is weak with this solution."
"There should be containerization within the VM."
"The reporting is a little bit tricky because it can be difficult to exactly pinpoint some of the assets to filter them and generate a report."
"It is still not a fully cloud-based solution. It will be helpful for customers if it is a complete cloud solution. It is a hybrid solution at the moment."
"We are a registered reseller and a trusted partner. However, for us to get any support from them I can't log a call directly with Rapid7 InsightVM. I have to work with the distributor to log the call for me."
"I would like to see an updated dashboard. The dashboard is a little out-of-date. It could be made prettier."
"The solution could use a different licensing model."
"Search head clustering is often temperamental in its current state and should be improved, replaced by something better, or be reverted to search head pooling."
"Splunk is query-based, which is not the case with most cybersecurity tools. It is based on search queries and can be difficult to use. It would be good if they can make it easier to understand how to create search queries. They can improve the knowledge base for better understanding. To create your dashboard, you need to have a search query. We have multiple firewalls in our company, and we need a dashboard for them. It would be helpful if a default firewall dashboard is included in Splunk to make monitoring easier. If a dashboard is available for a security device, the operation part will be more efficient. We won't have to follow a manual process for this."
"The setup time is quite long."
"I would like some additional AI capabilities to provide additional information about things going wrong and things going well."
"The product could be cheaper."
"Splunk is not very user-friendly. It has a complex architecture in comparison to other solutions on the market."
