Strong security reporting has supported our consulting work and drives better integration choices
I rated Adlumin Security Operations probably the same as Huntress at eight. They are better at reporting and better integrations. The integrations in terms of the number of integrations you can run from them or connect to are not as many as available with Huntress, but they have easier implementation. Overall, I would say it is the same. I do not want to see any additional features in the next release of Adlumin Security Operations, but I would change the pricing a little bit for around SIEM integrations and SIEM data collection. That is probably the maximum I would do. I do not really have much to say because that is literally five percent of our deployments versus ninety-five percent being Huntress. My overall rating for this review is eight.

Centralized analytics have strengthened patch visibility and support efficient regulatory reporting
From my experience, I assess the product's analytics capabilities as successful. It helped us significantly with patching and managing the risk of the patching process across all our environments, including network devices with Windows and Unix systems. The product covered several environments and gave us exactly what we needed in our environment. Tenable Security Center's centralized platform helped with risk assessment and management across our IT environments. It covered the patching process, and we previously faced many issues regarding how to patch different environments, how to monitor the patching process, and whether it was successful or not. We obtained good reports showing when patches were closed and the details of each patch, including who executed it and everything related to the patching process until it was closed. This gave us good details about the process which helped us significantly in our reporting and even in audits, whether internal or external. We learned how to close audit issues safely and successfully. We used the dashboards for real-time threat insights and extracted several dashboards from Tenable Security Center. We use these dashboards in our cybersecurity dashboard and committees that we have. These dashboards are part of our committees, especially the cybersecurity committee and other committees that we attend.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We normally focus on Huntress."
"One of the most valuable features is their distributed scan model for allotting engines to work together as a pool and handle multiple scans at once, across multiple environments. Automatic scanning distribution is a distinguishing feature of their toolset."
"The solution is very intuitive as are the dashboards, and it provides good visibility to the vulnerabilities in the company."
"The customer service and support team at Tenable were extremely helpful."
"Tenable.sc's best features are the availability model, accident management, and scoring."
"Technical support is excellent. They are extremely responsive and very helpful."
"The most effective feature of Tenable Security Center for detecting vulnerabilities is its capability for critical mapping."
"We really love the Security Center dashboard; the dashboard helps us out to map what things need to be prioritized, what is our current threat landscape and what would be the latest threats that we have in our network."
"The usability is really good; it's very intuitive and any person can use it, you do not have to be an expert in vulnerability analysis."
 

Cons

"Adlumin Security Operations's functionality is probably slightly better, but implementation and integration with Office 365 was not as straightforward."
"As it is now, integration with new tools has to be developed specifically, so it's not easy."
"They are not currently handling call flows properly. Some call flows are being deleted from the registry but still show as active."
"Certain aspects require manual effort, such as exporting and analyzing data for our dashboards. The built-in components of the Tenable solution are somewhat clumsy that require external tools. So, this is an area of improvement."
"Its reporting can be improved. It is not easy to generate a scan report the way we want. The data is okay, but we can't easily change the template to make it look the way we want."
"A good plugin editor would be a good additional option for the Security Center."
"The dashboard templates are limited."
"The solution needs to improve its support. I would like to see a bird's eye view of my network architecture. I would also like to see the continuous view feature in the tool."
"I'm having some issues with that and it's holding things up."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The licensing costs for this solution are approximately $100,000 US, and I think that covers everything."
"My company needs to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs. The pricing of the solution falls in the mid-range level, so it is not too expensive"
"The price of Tenable SC is expensive, we pay approximately €70,000 for the license annually. We have to pay for each IP test. The cost of other solutions is far less, such as Nessus Professional, which is €3,000 annually."
"Tenable is open-source."
"The pricing is more than Nexpose."
"We pay around 60,000 on a yearly basis."
"Tenable.sc is more expensive than its competitors."
"I use a local license to perform penetration testing and I'm pretty happy with everything when it comes to pricing and licensing."
