Nessus Professional has the best price/coverage ratio of the industry

What do you like best about the product?
Tenable Nessus Professional is widely praised for several key features that make it a preferred choice for vulnerability management BUT I want to focus my review on why it make sense for you if you have a lot of IP to scan.
Most of the scanners have licenses per IP, so if you have wide ip ranges, licenses fee would be astronomious.
You will need to accomodate the limited reporting and vulnerability management feature of the proffessional version.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nessus Professional need some good process OR automation to get the most of it as you dont have any 'quality of life' feature like dashboard, tracking and limited automation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tenable Nessus solves problems related to cybersecurity, primarily by helping organizations identify vulnerabilities in their networks, systems, and applications. The benefits include enhanced security and compliance.
