"Nexpose is almost there"

3.5/5

What do you like best about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

Intuitive

End point agent deployment and management is easy

RBAC on the console is great

Scanning capabilities like specific vulnerabilities & compliance etc. are good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

In comparison to Tenable SecurityCenter we saw it didn't exactly find the same vulnerabilities which we would assume it should have

We rely on a ticketing system and not our VM tool to assign tasks so wasn't too useful having that in there

Filtering capabilities aren't as good as its competitors Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering InsightVM (Nexpose):

You may find some features missing or it is not working the way you want from time to time. It is great that Rapid7 open the products' API, and maybe they know their product is NOT perfect nor suit everyone's need. The API can allow you to do more advanced work like automation, but if the team who use or manage it does not has member proficient in scripting or SQL query, it maybe frustrated to just purely going through the GUI or wait the support for solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

NeXpose is well suited for company or team have member(s) with scripting and SQL skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
