"Great vulnerability insights with multiple features"

4.5/5

What do you like best about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

No one can beat the insight VM inbuilt and customized Dashboards, query builders, best remediation module, and reporting filters. The scanning coverage, options, and authentication mechanism are good. The vulnerability identification with metasploitable modules, public exploit, and steps to replicate helps a lot. Automation features and cloud configuration assessment features are really useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

The tool does not have a real-time threat protection module, and data shown after running query builder doesn't have much more info to export. Application and Operating system-related vulnerabilities cannot be exported separately.

InsightVM support needs to improve the response time.

Do not support lot of integration from UI, API integration is bit complex Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is InsightVM (Nexpose) solving and how is that benefiting you?

This tool solves problems related to Dashboards, risk understanding, and remediation modules and helps in tracking, retesting, and mitigating the vulnerability.

This solves issues related to reporting generation either for stakeholders or leadership. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible and evolving project"

4.5/5

What do you like best about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

InsightVM has been flexible enough to meet a variety of our vulnerability management and reporting needs across a few business units. The cloud integrations are great and allow us to feed information to other departments for remediation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

Setup can still be a bit clunky. Some bugs in complex vulnerability checks can take a long time to be fixed. It can be difficult to set up reports to be concise until you have a good feel for the different options available in the console. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering InsightVM (Nexpose):

Don't forget to consider the cloud portion of InsightVM versus the on-prem only version (Nexpose). I've found the cloud portion allows for folks who don't need to be in the tool daily (managers and executives) to still get value without needing to learn a new tool. It is also super useful for dashboarding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is InsightVM (Nexpose) solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using InsightVM along with InsightIDR to inform our vulnerability management program and measure patching and remediation SLAs. Before, calculating SLAs was entirely manual and a huge time sink. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use, not so easy to setup"

4/5

What do you like best about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

Easy to use once installed - it's pretty well a "set and forget" system that you don't need to constantly update or adjust. Interface is relatively easy to use. InsightVM has lots of features to keep your security analysts happy for days on end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

Requires an on-prem management console (not just scan engine) if you have on-prem assets that need to be scanned. Requires in-depth knowledge to install and get up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is InsightVM (Nexpose) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gives visibility to all the vulnerabilities in your systems that are otherwise hidden or not visible. Be warned that this visibility can be horrifying in the scale and magnitude Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
