The scalability of the software could be better. Its licenses are distributed through a third-party supplier at the moment. Thus, it becomes a problem in managing the numbers. The licenses stay the same, but the numbers keep on going up. I currently have 600 assets. If I go for a three-year contract, it will increase by 900 assets. It would have been great if we had direct contact with Qualys for sales and support.

In the future, we plan to increase the number of users. In my team, we have three members, and the team working on the risk scan consists of six members. Overall, there are about ten users in our environment.

I rate the scalability a five out of ten.

Qualys, being cloud-based, offers excellent scalability. Whenever we need to scale up, we can easily configure settings in the backend. And add licenses for more users.

It allows for easy adjustments to your security needs without the need for physical hardware, facilitating seamless scaling up or down according to your organization's requirements.

In my team, we have a focused group working with Qualys. However, our organization serves a broader range of clients, including small to medium-sized businesses, leveraging Qualys for their security needs.

We get a license to use this application for up to a year and we file for a license every year to renew. We would need to renew this license in September of 2020, so we will need to make a decision whether we will be continuing to use Qualys as a solution.

The plans can be installed internally on the infrastructure or be used with a cloud-base scenario. If you have a cloud structure, the scalability is almost unlimited because it all depends on the number of assets that you want to manage. This can be done without any major configuration changes. In terms of scalability, Qualys has handled it quite well.

It leverages the cloud. One of the upsides of that is the scalability that is possible. 

We have about 500 to 600 people on the solution currently.

Sr Cybersecurity Leader at a non-tech company with 1,001-5,000 employees

We procured around 110 licenses for Web Application Scanning, but we have issues running concurrent scans. I don't currently have the option to trigger scans for all 100-plus websites. The default limit is around 10 conference scans. It's not very scalable, to be honest, because of the limitation that they put on concurrent scans.

The scalability is very good. It is very easy to expand this solution. We scan on an IP address basis. We have credit for 250 IP addresses, and we are free to use it in our user environment, or on the cloud. 

We have around twenty users using this solution.
