Affordably Priced For Everyone! With almost 70 new hidden vulnerabilities identified every day, you would need to be a super hero with X-ray vision to find them all. Or, you can let VulScan do it for you. VulScan is purpose-built for MSPs and for IT Departments that handle their own IT security. It has all the features you need for both internal and external vulnerability management, but without all the complexity found in older solutions. Best of all, VulScan is priced so that cost is no longer a barrier to scanning as many assets as you need, as frequently as you want. That’s why our slogan is “Vulnerability Management For The Rest of Us! VulScan is an affordable cloud-based vulnerability management platform. It includes the software needed to spin up an unlimited number of virtual network scanner appliances using Hyper-V or VMWare, and a cloud-based portal to control the scanners and manage the discovered issues. For internal network scanning, the appliances can be installed on any existing computer that has excess capacity on the network, or installed on a dedicated box to be permanently installed. You can add multiple scanners and configure them each to scan separate parts of the network to get even faster results pushed into the same client site dashboard at no additional cost. For external scanning, the appliances are installed on the MSP’s data center or other remote location and “pointed” to the public facing IP addresses of the target network. ## VulScan Pros & Cons **What users like:** - Users find VulScan's **ease of use** advantageous, appreciating simple scheduling and integration with existing systems.

Good program so far **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chris C. | Senior Systems Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** VulScan does a good job scanning environments to find any "hidden" vulnerabilities. It is pretty easy to deploy and the reports are great. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** It's hard to sell because of the price point for a smaller MSP **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** So far it hasn't helped with much because it is a hard sell for a smaller MSP. I can say that it does its job very well though. ### 2. Vulscan Solution for Vulnerability Scanner **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mary Joy U. | IT, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 21, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Checking for viruses and cyberattacks has never been easier with the use of this solution.

Product does as expected but you mush self host or pay additional for an external scanner. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kelly Speers, Author and I. | President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** We like that it works with Vonahi for reporting and is a good product **What do you dislike about VulScan?** The fact that they make you host your own scanner and can't do installs of the procuts on your own machines you have to use their VM builds. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** We perform quarterly scans for clients and this helps us see what could be exploited and should be looked into right away. ### 4. Vulscan Review **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Johnny P. | Help Desk Technician, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Integration with Kesaya, scan results are clean and organized. Implementation is easy and straight forward. Customer support is helpful and responsive. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** The general interface can be overwhelming at first, but it's pretty easy to get used to and navigate around. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is helping us find critical vulnerabilities for missing patches, along with security settings that should be changed to follow best practices. ### 5. The Vulscan process is clear and logical. Results are quick and easy to read/process. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2025 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Repeatability. Config once, run many. Simplicity. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Cost. But saying that, if it were free, it wouldn't do what is does. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Vulnerability detection and reporting. ### 6. Overall a great product **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nick R. | IT Technician, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** I love the fact that it integrates easily with other Kaseya tools like Rocket Cyber **What do you dislike about VulScan?** My biggest gripe is the limit on the flexibility when it comes to scheduling scans. For example, I cannot schedule a scan for the first Monday of every month. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is helping bring issues to our attention that we would otherwise be unaware of ### 7. Easy to use, comprehensive reporting **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Very intuitive and reports are easy to read and full of useful information **What do you dislike about VulScan?** There are no downsides that I can think of **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Picking up on vulnerabilities ### 8. Finds vulnerabilities but is limited **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** VulScan does exactly what it says it does - finds vulnerabilities. However, unlike other products I have used, it does not allow for rescanning and removing those vulnerabilities on demand. You have to wait for a full month for resolved vulnerabilities to fall off of your list. I have used a competitor product and can scan individual machines to verify the vulnerability is removed. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** The thing I dislike the most is the reporting. There is no way for me to see what vulnerabilities have been remediated on demand. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It does identify the vulneraibilities but does not let me see that they have been remediated without manually marking each one. An ideal vulnerability scanner lets me rescan to make sure the vulnerability is no longer present. ### 9. Great vulnerability scanning **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 25, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** As an IT professional, this is one of the best vulnerability scanning platforms available, there are many features, and the ease of use is good. Support is also good they help instantly. We use this monthly with all our customers to identify any weak points. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Nothing, to be honest, they can uplift the UI a little. Implementation can be easier. Integration can be better **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It idenitifies any risks and helps us remiteate it ### 10. Easy to use, useful information **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 24, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Easy setup/scheduling of scans to run. Reviewing the issues is also fairly easy. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** The visual interface could be a bit better, I find the review of active issues to be somewhat dated. I would like to see a grouping option to sort it out by OS patches, security updates missing, 3rd party applications, etc. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** CMMC compliance. ### 11. Great product for replacing a standalone OpenVAS solution **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consulting | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** The software is really easy to use. I've installed OpenVAS Community and implementing this product is very difficult starting from the git repo. With VulScan, you deploy an OVA and everything is straightforward! Their customer support is good and fast. The pricing is far cheaper than other alternative and customer can also have their own management page. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** No french report or custom for now. It depends on Internet connection to have the scan result. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Need to have a fast and easy way to deploy and scan new network. ### 12. Simple and effective **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Simple yet effective interface. I like the different scanning methods for a comprehensive scan. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** To get the most usage from itl, you also need Compliance Manager so it create the complience reports for you for upper management. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It allows us to tick the Vul Scan box for Essential 8 compliance. ### 13. Best vulnerability scanner **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Danial L. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** The ease of use and comprehensive reporting. Integration into documentation systems and pentesting system **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Could use more integrations for even more management options and compliance **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** We use vulscan to keep up on compliance issues and close vulnerabilities on a regular basis keeping our managed sites secure and compliant ### 14. Easy to use product **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Vulscan is easy to deploy and use. Setting up continuous scanning is simple and takes little time to deploy. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Scan results are only retained for 90 days. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** We needed a solution that does automated, continuous vulnerability scanning. VulScan accomplished this and has a good cost factor. ### 15. Easy to use, and an excellent platform for MSps to sell Vulnerability Scanning as a Service. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Liam O. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Comprehensive reporting, easy to configure and use, with minimal labour input required for deployment and management, making it easy to scale. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Requires an appliance to run, but this is fairly typical of such platforms. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helps us provide our clients a complete Security as a Service solution. ### 16. Vulscan is amazing product helps identify assets on our network and determine their vulnerability. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** David C. | IT Support Analyst, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 14, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** I love the ability to determine the vulnerability of a potential machine and its potential threats. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Kind of over interface but all I all great **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Identify threats on employers networks ### 17. Love that it is helping our clients understand where their vulnerabilities are. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Gives an edge to create better solutions for our clients needs. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Still feel like I am setting it up at times. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Gives our clients an idea of what they need and how we can help them achieve their security goals. ### 18. VulScan - Inexpensive way to scan for vulnerabilities **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 08, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Cost is a big factor with many of these security products; this solution provides a reasonable way to run frequent vulnerabilty scanning. We've found the platform to be very easy to use. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** I think the biggest thing VulScan is missing is a better way to manage "permantely accepted risk" vs temporarily accepted risk. I would also like a notes field on these items so I can say why I accepted the risk, or temporarily excluded it from a scan so in x months, I know what to look for and why I excluded it. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is allowing us to run frequent vulnerability scans. Most clients just assume we know about all of them and we all know that isn't possible without a 3rd party product like VulScan actually looking at the network **Official Response from Bonnie Goldberg:** > Thank you for your feedback. We will share it with the product development team to see if they can address this in their roadmap. ### 19. Efficient and UX friendly **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 24, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** The best qualities are the UI and the speed of the process. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** The pricing is not necessarily very competitive . **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** VulScan addresses our critical gap of identifying and managing vulnerabilities for our customer infrastructures. By automating the detection of both internal and external vulnerabilities, it helps organizations proactively mitigate risks before they can be exploited. ### 20. Great product! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Robert S. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 05, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Easy to use, easy to schedule scans, results are easy to read and the mitigation steps are very helpful. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Only issue I disliked was you had to setup an external scan yourself. They just added the hosted external scan which I will be reaching out to my account rep to get setup! **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helping us detect and respond to vulnerabilities. **Official Response from Bonnie Goldberg:** > Thank you for your review. I hope that you were able to reach your account manager to add the hosted external scan. ### 21. VulScan's great **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** VulScan's an easy tool to use to run vulnerability scan's on your own. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Some of the terminology can be confusing but it is explained fairly well. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** VulScan assists with getting our networks ready for PCI Compliance. ### 22. Powerful Vulnerability Scanning **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Medical Practice | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 30, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** It is extremely thorough in detecting issues either hardware or software based and giving resolution advice. And now with externally hosted scanning, it's an excellent tool back and front. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** The dashboard could use an update - and external and internal scans could be more unified. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are finding weaknesses for all of our clients. It helps with support and sales. **Official Response from Bonnie Goldberg:** > Thank you for sharing your feedback on VulScan! We're thrilled to hear that you find the tool thorough and beneficial for your clients. We appreciate your suggestion for an updated dashboard and more unified scans, and we'll definitely take that into consideration for future improvements. ### 23. VulScan - just enough to be compliant **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Matthew M. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Vulscan is quick to set up. Vulscan is improving its detection mechanisms frequently. Vulscan allows multi-tenancy to provide division for multiple customers in one interface. Allowing users access to Vulscan is also extremely easy. Separating external and internal scanners makes scheduling and scheming vulnerability scans easy. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Reporting is dubious at best. There is no easy way to review vulnerabilities. This same reporting limitation prevents creating exceptions for devices more difficult than it should be. Installing the detection agent for individual Windows devices requires manual intervention, and there are no apparent silent installation options or any documentation for silent installation for mass deployment. When compared to other products, Vulscan misses significant details in installed application vulnerabilities. Remediation steps are often very generic and include no real actions to take. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Vulscan helps us create a multi-tenant vulnerability management program contained within a single pane of glass. Vulscan allows us to provide access to the console directly to clients which decreases our direct involvement with deployment and scheduling of scans by allowing our co-managed clients to directly control their own scanners. ### 24. Well worth the price for valuable insight **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tyler W. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** The best thing about Vulscan is how the findings are represented to you. It'd be one thing if it just said "there's a vulnerability with X and here's the relevant CVE and the CVSS Score," but Vulscan goes well beyond that. It explains why this is a vulnerability, when it was found and how best to remediate. It gives you all the tools you need to make informed decisions on the cybersecurity posture of a client's (or your own) network. Worth the money **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Vulscan can be a bit tricky to install because it requires you to install on a hypervisor. It took us several days to install it correctly the first time but once we got the hang of it, it turned out to be OK. I would much rather have an ISO file that we boot a VM to and then install the OS that way but that's my 2 cents. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** The best help it provides is helping us to keep with with all of the CVE's that we as an MSP need to be on top of. If we aren't proactively protecting against new threats, we aren't doing our jobs. ### 25. VulScan Review **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 05, 2024 **What do you like best about VulScan?** It is integrated into the Rapidfire Portal and for what it does, it is fairly inexpensive. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** 2 things. 1) you can not pull multi-site reports of all sites in your tenant. It would be nice to be able to get a global view so that we can tell what vulnerabilities are affecting all sites, or enough sites to make an automated solution feasible. 2) The remediation direction is very generic. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Insite into the client environment. **Official Response from Bonnie Goldberg:** > Thank you for your feedback. We will share it with our product development team. ### 26. Top of the line Vulnerability Scanner **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 15, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Easy to use/setup with helpful support when the knowledgebase articles don't exactly get the issue resolved. Easy to automate when/how to run. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Remote site Vulnerability scanning when clients don't have a server or computer capible of running as a hypervisor. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** VulScan is vital to our vulnerability management program for us and our clients. The ease of use and integrations with what we already have for ticketing/rmm makes it easy to resolve vulnerabilities that are found in the networks that we manage/takeover. ### 27. VulScan review **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nayan M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 01, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** I liked its security finding technologie that make our organization secure. Also, it is very easy to use. It provide some flexibility to us in terms of vulnerability detection and exploitation. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** VulScan, can sometimes generate false positive results for us. That means we are reporting those vulnerabilities that do not actually exist, So that will waste our time. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** VulScan helps us to identify vulnerabilities in applications. It scans for vulnerabilities and provides us a comprehensive list of potential security weaknesses. From these vulnerabilities, VulScan enables our organizations to understand security posture and take appropriate actions to address the threads. ### 28. System Administrator **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Khedir Q. | System Admininstrator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** I like that it first integrates with Network Detective Pro when generating network vulnerability and security reports, and second, it can be installed on any domain-joined machine using hyper-v. Even though the instructions sometimes seem misleading, with help from support, I could set it up and get it going. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Not sure if I can tell you what to dislike about the VulScan, I think its a good product and does a lot but like I mentioned, I need some fine tunning and help from support to set the product up. Not easy for first-timers **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** it solves many problems, most importantly for us is the network vulnerability scan that we use to generate reports for our customers ### 29. Gets better all the time! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tim K. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Love that VulScan doesn't charge by IP's scanned, #1. The fact you can easily do a portable scanner - huge for us for our discovery process. Easier to use than the big name products. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Downside for us is the bulk pricing. Would be nice to be able to buy in smaller chunks to get ramped up to a higher client count. Reporting could be a little stronger, but seems to be getting better. I like more "raw" or "sortable" data, that I can clean up before discussing with a client. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Visibility into client devices that have manufacturer or programming vulnerabilities. We want to stay AHEAD of these threats, vs reacting to the next huge 0-day. ### 30. Very thorough! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Christopher J. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Love not only the depth of the information provided but the remediation and helpful non-techie descriptions help continue to sell the need for the changes up the chain of command **What do you dislike about VulScan?** The installation can be very difficult, at times the documentation likes behind reality. However, the helpdesk is very supportive of issues and can help point you in the right direction, but it is still more of a self discovery **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** VulScan is helping us see in a much easier way the things that are impacting the security of both internal and external networks, and it is helping us provide that same level of protection and information to our clients as well ### 31. VulScan the tool you need **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Felix C. | Company Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 02, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** The details the scans provide give you what you need to fix the solution. You can also mark known issues as accepted or, on a rare occasion, a false positive can be drawn not to appear again. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Honestly, I don't think there is anything I don't like with Vulcan. It provides me with everything I need. If I had to choice something, a more detailed log would be ideal. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helps discover the vulnerabilities with out having to use a 3rd party auditor to discover them for you. Also, I have found that VulScan finds more than 3rd party auditors do. ### 32. Very useful tool for discovering internal vulnerabilities **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Anderson B. | SOC Analyst, Security and Investigations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 02, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Understand risks in the environment and use the information to remediate vulnerabilities. The interface is nice and shows the results clearly on your dashboard. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** I believe it would be better if the Discovery Agents for devices that are not on the network (endpoints and servers), sent their logs/vulnerabilities to the internal or external Scanner, along with those already collected by it. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Fix previously unseen issues, from low to high vulnerabilities. Understanding of possible points of improvement in the technological environment. Increasing business performance and continuous improvement process. ### 33. Pentester Feedback of VulScan **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** I'm using VulScan as one of the tools in my Pentest "kit". Adding the granular detail VulScan provides, has increased our clients' satisfaction during the active phase of our pentests. Providing them Technician-level access once we wrap up the active phase provides them the ability to check down the vulnerabilities allowing them to confirm/deny/mitigate the findings, etc. I'm liking it a lot and the clients seem to as well, once I get them over the initial scare of the high-volume of hits in their environment. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Scanning is painfully slow, even when dropping the IVS on a dedicated machine with significant horsepower... it may take 3-6 hours for just a couple of /24's, and often seems to hang on the last IP in the range, at 99%, for several hours. Painful to watch! It seems there are consistent false positives that I've learned and see every time... such as "Trojans"... just because a few ports associated with common products are present. I think a single criteria shouldn't trigger an event... but needs to corroborate with another in order to be considered "intelligence" v. "information". **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** I'm using it as part of my Pentesting offering, and don't simply perform independent vulnerability scanning. VulScan is helping to provide confirmation of similar finding that I'll fetch through other means throughout an engagement. It's helping validate the findings and gives the client a bit of immediate control of their destiny in the remediation process. ### 34. Excellent Product for vulnerability scanning **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Darren M. | Cyber Network Security Consultant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** Easy process to conduct the scans and an automated reporting process. Reports are professional and ready to present to the client. Detect out of date applications. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** Application detection is improving and additions to include third party applications will be released soon. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is a tool we can deploy in any situation to provide our engineers with a level of visibility that was previously not possible. ### 35. Not a bad management tool. **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 31, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** I like that you can schedule scans and automate ticketing. It is helpful for MSPs that you can use more than one scanner. Most vulnerability scanning tools only allow you to use once scanner at a time. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** It could be more consistent on vulnerability management. Sometimes the ticket numbers disappear before the actual ticket is closed. A single-pane view of active and previous tickets would be helpful. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** The scanning, once it is set up, has been effortless.

Would be nice to be see a desktop version become available. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** VulScan is a wonderful tool in resolving compliancy issues and security vulnerabilities. It is a great asset for an MSP and offers many uses for our clients. ### 37.

It's not the highest price in the market, but it's not the lowest. But I do think the positive outcome this software has provided our company has made up for the price. Along with their customer service - they are always a call, message, email, click away. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** Vulscan allows us to schedule out network scans which is customized to my company's frequency. We like how this system allows us to create tickets automatically when issues arise.

A great additional layer for that next step in security **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Stephen L. | Sr. Technical Account Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 26, 2023 **What do you like best about VulScan?** It provides a great level of insight into areas of risk not usually checked, or at the very least, not easily checked on scale. **What do you dislike about VulScan?** The main downside of VulScan is that it requires a significant amount of resources to run and can take a long time to complete a scan, especially on large networks. Additionally, VulScan may generate a large number of false positive results, which can make it difficult to determine which vulnerabilities are actually present in a system. Another downside is that the tool does not provide a way to automatically fix the vulnerabilities it finds, it just reports them. This means that an administrator must manually patch or otherwise remediate each vulnerability. **What problems is VulScan solving and how is that benefiting you?** It provides additional information of vulnerabilities in an environment that helps demonstrate to clients (potential) the need for multi-levels of security. It shows areas that need to be addressed but also is an aid to present other security tools and measures. ### 41.

Allows visibility into agents and servers who maybe outdated or non responsive. ### 43.
