Nessus Pros and Cons

Pros

"The false-positive rate is too low. Easy to use and user-friendly makes me impressed. Technical staffs both local partners and vendor are willing to help. The other thing the most important is to create new signatures for the latest vulnerabilities quickly and The Nessus does."

"The myriad features, the ease of use and the relatively low resource consumption"

Cons

"I think they need to improve their reporting features. I can not get a pdf report on the Professional license."

"In some cases, Nessus is known to give false positives. However, this is more annoying then concerning as we have learned to identify them and verify their authenticity"

Nessus Vulnerability Scanner Review

Nessus has significantly simplified vulnerability assessment and penetration testing engagements. Its ease of use and numerous features make it a must-have tool for any network security engagement. Additionally, there are modules for various additional tasks, such as compliance scanning as per CIS, NIST, and even PCI DSS. Also, one can even use it to carry out a preliminary application security assessment. The availability of conducting credentialed scanning makes it simple to perform scanning of missing patches remotely for a large number of devices. All in all, an excellent and must have a tool
