"Powerful Vulnerability assessmnent tool at a more than reasonable cost"
What do you like best? Speed! I can get accurate results from a Nessus scan much faster than I get from other products costing 1000% more. The interface is extremely intuitive and I can configure a scan quickly compared to my other tools. It is my 'Go To' system when a client requests a scan to validate patches of config changes. What do you dislike? What I dislike has nothing to do with the tool itself. I dislike that my manager feels the cost of the tool is indicative of its overall worth ...

"Excellent software"
What do you like best? provides insight on your environment. Easy to install and to operate. Reporting add a lot of value for upper management. What do you dislike?

"Nessus works well"
What do you like best? The amount/variety of plugins that cover just about everything you need to scan for, both new/0 day threats and past. What do you dislike?

What benefits have you realized? Making sure systems ...

"Nessus Vulnerability scanner"
What do you like best? Nessus allows scan for different kinds of vulnerabilities as denials of service, default passwords, misconfigurations. It is supported on a lot of operating systems and platforms.It also has an evaluation trial that helps you to decide if it is good for you or not. I think is great for big companies. What do you dislike? It cant manage all scans from one location. So doesn't have centralized management. It doesn't provide roles based access. It doesn’t seem to offer ...
