"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.

"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.

"One of the best vulnerability management solutions on the market, tried true and tested."

What do you dislike about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

Administration and maintenance of the console and scanner engines can be a little unwieldy. At times, Rapid7 support can be slow to respond to tickets and queries. 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.

"InsightVM (Nexpose) Review"

4.5/5

What do you like best about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

I like how InsightVM does a deeper vulnerability scan of all assets that have an IP address in our network. Network devices, hosts, IoTs, phones, etc. InsightVM also integrates very well with InsightIDR SIEM and Insight Anyconnect to remediate issues it finds. I also like how it integrates with SCCM which makes it easier for us to remediate and automate things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

InsightVM for some reason had issues resolving licensing count in our deployment as well as doing exclusions when manually creating a scan group. The ability to create a scan group exclusion is critical because we use a guest network and during an IP range scanning, these devices are also reported by InsightVM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering InsightVM (Nexpose):

As a recommendation for others considering InsightVM, run a longer POC of the system and see how it works. Line up a test system and play with all the settings. The product is solid and the support is top-notch. InsightVM is a great tool for any vulnerability management process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We mostly used InsightVM for the vulnerability management of our servers and workstation environment. Using InsightVM allowed us to find obsolete software we've already forgotten as well as helping us keep our Windows environment updated with current patches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
