What differentiates Tenable Vulnerability Management from other similar products?

I consider that the key to Tenable.SC is in the first place the possibility of being able to customize the reports to show results in a clearer way, coupled with this how complete it is, that is, it allows scanning, identifying and detecting from a cell phone to a network device, not to mention that it can help us improve security in each of these

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Without a doubt, my favorite aspect of Tenable.SC is the effective and efficient way in which it performs device discovery on our network, this is extremely beneficial since many times we have intrusive devices that we have no idea that they are accessing our resources, thanks to Tenable SC. that's already in the past

What do you dislike most about this product?

It has happened to me that when it is an analysis that shows too many vulnerabilities, at the time of generating the report, it tends to appear a little incomplete or very summarized, if they can be concise but giving a little more detail would be excellent, outside of that everything works like a charm

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would recommend that if you want to improve the security of your networks and in turn standardize them, implement Tenable.SC, I guarantee that you will not regret it and your organizations will be extremely pleased to have such a powerful tool
