Cost is very high to compair to other tool.

"Better than most of the products in the market, but not the best"

3.5/5

What do you like best about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

Vulnerability views

Reporting

Dashboards

Tons of threat intelligence and research data integrated with the product by Rapid7. Stuff like Metasploit DB, AttackerKB and project Heisenberg are some of the best integrations.

Remediation Projects

Risk Scoring - the new Active Risk Scoring is awesome.

Scan Assistant (probably the best service for vuln scanning) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

The security console is a lot buggy.

Native Jira integration is not really native. Breaks all the time.

Sometimes it takes days to identify some vulnerabilities which is a major drawback especially for critical vulnerabilities (Jetbrains TeamCity CVSS10 vuln is one example, took it 3 days to identify vulnerable assets)

Too much administrative efforts to setup stuff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

InsightVM is solving all our vulnerability management problems. It checks all the boxes starting from identification to remediation of a vulnerability. I cannot say it is a fully fledged and completely mature tool but it is far better than the other tools I've used in the past (Tenable, Qualys, MS Defender) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration with extrenal ticketing tool is limited Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use this product for vulnerability management, which keeps us updated with newly listed CVEs. It notifies us whenever there is a zero-day or critical vulnerability release. We use it to reduce the risk score in our environment, ensuring timely patching especially for Microsoft Tuesday patches and critical CVEs. It also helps us keep track of EOS/EOL software. Overall, this product helps us stay safe from cyber attacks and reduce our risks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Dynamic Asset Discovery feature in InsightVM platform provides fluidity to our inventory management"

4/5

What do you like best about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

InsightVM efficiently manages our cloud workloads through its robust agent installation. We can overview and scan all our images at various stages in deployment. We can also identify potential risks and prioritize handling vulnerabilities in our infrastructure. Since it is an agent-based platform, we can conveniently focus on our enhancements and let InsightVM take care of the underlying dependencies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about InsightVM (Nexpose)?

We need to keep track of our resource consumption & take suitable approaches for optimization. This can be tedious while working on InsightVM, but with adequate exposure, it's possible to make the best out of its functionalities. We can build a resilient infrastructure to meet security compliances in our SDLC with InsightCM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Dynamic Asset discovery is crucial for our organization as we work on implementing and decommissioning virtual machines. We can't manually go into our portal and check with the drifts after each deployment. InsightVM is helpful in giving us fluidity to scan dynamically as per our cron schedules and take resource snapshots for quick reference. Hence when there is a security breach, we simply overview the snapshots to troubleshoot and recover our virtual machines hosted for our customer requirements without much downtime.
