A total game changer-Nessus

  • April 22, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Multi-tasking: Nessus employs efficient memory usage to implement multitasking.
Credentialed Scanning: Executing a credentialed Nessus Scan allows you to get a deeper depth of information about your target. Constantly being updated. One of the few Vulnerability scanners with more than expected features and support for the community version.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nessus Pro restricted to just a single client makes it scarcely moderate for medium scale organizations. The characterization (high, medium, low, and so forth) are based on the finding and not your current circumstance. A high might be low for your situation and the other way around. Like many tools, even Nessus does have its own limitations and is not necessary that it may find all the vulnerabilities associated with the target provided. Ordinarily, the enhancements are not refreshed in an opportune way and this damages much more with the bogus positives produced
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Booking Report Quality Speed Ease of establishment. Automated tasks help to complete a VAPT and a pentesting project much faster.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Nessus is a great vulnerability scanner tool, but if you are looking for something in specific to scan, such as a webapp, you should rather go for a web-app scanner.

My go-to vulnerability scanner

  • April 22, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Nessus has a lot of configuration options that help you identify vulnerabilities quickly and efficiently
This tool is modified on a regular basis to include new CVEs and features. Many features appeal to me, but they are not limited to the following:
scheduled scans, high-speed asset discovery, configuration auditing, target profiling, malware detection, sensitive data discovery, vulnerability analysis etc
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't had any issues with the Nessus tool so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I appreciate how nessus upgrades their thread db; they are constantly looking to provide consumers with the most recent threats; however, further email alerts about current threats would be preferable

for lage scan , sometimes it slowdown. that should be improved. GUI interface should be improved. And some more features needs to be added. tools should have updates more frequently. some more features related to network security should be added. that will help users to solve problems easily.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it helps me to scan websites and find out vulnerabilities. It also tell md the severity of bug. so i can decidethe priority to resolve highest problematic first. For many websites i found critical and normal vulnerabilities and solved by help of nezsuss and other tools. it save time and provide good results. it have a good and easy graphical interface that helps to a beginner to use thos tool for their purposes.
