The licensing model has changed from earlier versions. Previously, there was a 500 IP cap, and customers needed to buy a minimum of 500 IP and consider 500 domains. In Bangladesh, many large organizations don't have 500 domains, yet they need to buy the minimum requirement. The main challenge currently is the commercial aspect, as the product has become very expensive. They could improve by reducing the minimum requirements to 250 IP or 200 IP or 100 IP, and lowering domain requirements to 50 or 25 domains. This would help cover more customers.
One area for product improvement could be the inclusion of a dashboard to cover multiple branches and subsidiaries, allowing for centralized monitoring.

There is room for improvement in virtualization compatibility. Testing with virtual servers didn't yield the same results as on-premises services, and the vendor's support was limited in addressing this issue.
Pentera's general dashboards could be improved and made more specific in terms of vulnerabilities that I'm discovering. Also, the solution should accommodate virtual patching. It will be a good idea not to prolong this vulnerability in our network. I've got one issue with Pentera's licensing. Pentera should allow small organizations to subscribe and use the solution. Sometimes, it gets very difficult to get 100,000 approved for a project. Pentera should provide the capacity to allow testing something quickly on a demand basis. Now that we haven't been doing red teaming and blue teaming, it would be good if the solution could give general reports that we can send or communicate to our executive. That would really make our job easy. Sometimes there's a lot of jargon around the dashboard, and if it can be general, we can easily convince our executive management.

The licensing and IP management need improvement. When the IP is imported into a system, we cannot withdraw or revoke the license.

The automated penetration testing features must be improved.
