It has significantly increased the amount of work we can perform, but blocking devices could be easier.
It could be easier to put devices on the blocklist. I would like the ability to block a device with a click of a button. Currently, we have to sift through different groups to block a device. It would be nice if Scalefusion allowed me to block without moving the device to a different profile. Another helpful feature they could add is the ability to migrate from one MDM to another. I'd also appreciate more extensive cloud storage. They give you 1 GB by default, but sometimes that's not enough.

Tenable Vulnerability Management agents are very lightweight, and the results we get are very accurate. The solutions they provide to us, assuming if one vulnerability exists, there will be a solution. The resolution they give us in wording will be the best solution. The exploit rates and the reports we get provide a lot of information, making it very easy for us to verify.The main benefit of integration with Tenable Vulnerability Management is that there will be no lack of missing vulnerabilities when it comes to the patching environment. That is one of the key aspects of why we have integrated Tenable to our patching tools. It has a vast capacity of pushing the data to our tools due to its capability and compatibility. That is also one of the reasons why we are using Tenable Vulnerability Management.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Scalefusion is easy to use, and they have a broad knowledge base, so you can quickly find answers if you're unsure how to do something. The articles on the knowledge base are well-written, with clear steps on what to do for a specific scenario. That part is well documented."
"Its enhanced support for iOS and Windows devices has been particularly beneficial, expanding our service offerings to customers with diverse device environments."
"One of the most valuable features of Tenable.io Vulnerability Management is its exportability, which allows us to conduct risk assessments efficiently."
"It has greatly impacted us by providing asset visibility."
"The vulnerability management itself is the most valuable feature as well as references to the mitigation techniques."
"It's a recommended tool for penetration testers because it's effective for that purpose."
"It is very stable, and it is updated periodically by adding new vulnerabilities."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"The tool has an easy-to-use interface."
"It helps us create remediation projects and assign the console’s responsibility to specific engineers."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement could be streamlining permissions during initial device setup, especially for corporate-owned devices, to reduce manual user interaction and expedite deployment."
"It could be easier to put devices on the blocklist. I would like the ability to block a device with a click of a button. Currently, we have to sift through different groups to block a device. It would be nice if Scalefusion allowed me to block without moving the device to a different profile. Another helpful feature they could add is the ability to migrate from one MDM to another. I'd also appreciate more extensive cloud storage. They give you 1 GB by default, but sometimes that's not enough."
"The solution must be promoted more in the market."
"I would like the solution to cover the whole cycle of mitigation since it's an area where the solution currently lacks."
"The solution seems to focus too much on enterprises, and they really need a product that works for SMBs."
"Tenable could improve visibility into assets, including automated asset tagging. You should be able to automatically tag assets based on location, function, ownership, etc. That would help us because we spend a lot of time identifying and tagging assets by hand."
"It would be helpful if Tenable could be more clear with regard to everything the solution can and cannot do with the particular license that you have."
"There needs to be better dashboard navigation."
"The solution must provide penetration testing."
"AI integration for reporting in Tenable would be beneficial."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The tool is reasonably priced."
"The solution is not too expensive."
"The product costs us around $137,000 annually for 4000 to 5000 assets."

"Tenable.io Vulnerability Management's pricing solution model isn't great."
"There are additional features that can be licensed for an additional cost."
"Tenable.io is not known for being a cheap product."
"Yearly payments are to be made toward the licensing cost of the product. It is neither a cheap nor an expensive product."
